fury democracy, her ability to serve in
political matters as elsewhere and the real
need that she should have fuller share
In civic affairs.
The author predicts that the greatest
onteome of the war will be the making Of
a new democracy with Il new valuation
of the individual as related to the group
and with clear recognition of woman as
a vital part of the democracy. He argues
that women are needed on the police force
of every city TO safeguard the recreation
of young people and to help in preventing
violations of the law. Speaking of con-
ditiOns existing in certain places under
present management, he says:
AT no point is democracy more severely
on trial. The first great step toward a
complete and lasting cure is that sense Of
mother-responsibility for all the children
and youth of community which can come
only with woman's equal responsibility
with man for all social organization"
Woman, with her mother instinct, is also
needed to insure a living wage to workers,
the book insists.
"A living wage must he the measure Of
our cvalualiOn of human life to be lived
in democracy Such Afe can never be
summed up in terms of food, clothing and
shelte-. 1t involves sound and healthful
body, a well trained mind. stable NOR
alitv, opportunity for aesthetic apprecia-
ton and chance TO provide for sickness
and old age"
With reference TO the readjustmcnt
necessary with relation to woman and in
dustry, he says:
This would mean In the first place the
preparation of women, through education,
for the doing of larger number of modi-
fled tasks coming within her capabilities.
This would involve not alone the eduea-
ton of girls, but the provision also for
those past the school age still found to be
capable of such establishments through
education. Incidentally also it would ne
cessitate the requirements that all girls,
regardless of family traditions, should b
educated away from parasitism."
Men and women alike can read this
book with profit.

Guilbert was obliged, to learn these

Possibly the final verses are the best,

Yvette Guilbert and
My Lord Hamilton
By HARRY ESTY DOUNcE.


A'A may not be ''the finest artist liv
ing in TIE world to-day who does any
thing of any kind upon the stage" as
Clayton Hamilton in his introduction TO
her lectures on tine art of singing q song
says "ncarly all the leading critics Of the
leading nations have pronounced her al
one time or another in the last ten years.
If Mr.. Iamiion's leading critics are all
critics Of his own stamp and after his
own heart. one is led on general principles
to conclude that she is not. But the au
thoritv Of Nine Guilbert in the subject of
her book will be seriously questioned by
nobody.
OF greatest interest here is her own
predatory panphrase, and most of it will
be simply reproduced:
"And | say unto the artist: Courage!
There is "a time for our defeats,
A time for or victories!
On condition that there be:
A time to look-A time TO listen--A
time to lovc-A time to suffer-A time TO
endure-A time to forgive-A time TO
learn-A time to underestimate time TO
absorb-A time to digest-A time to re
hect-A time TO mature-A time to bloom
A time to expand-A time to create
A time 10 REPRODUCED time to SOW
And then will come the time to reap!
"What is an artists lief
A time when you are dependent on
others
a time when others are dependent Oh
you!
A time when the populace despises
YOU
A time when you despise the populscc!
A time when the artist knocks in vain
at the gates Of Art
A time when Art shelters the artist!
A time when money insults the artist
A time when the artist insults money.
A time when the work of an artist is
obtainable Cor a few cents
a time when untold millions could not
purchase that same work.
y time wien. through the fault OF the
nation, artists perish
A time when through the lack Of artists,
the nation pcrishcs!
A tim" when YOUR native town makes
your reputation
\ time when You make the reputation
OF your native town!
4 time whom, being cnvicd by too many,
you suffer.
A time when, being envied by too few.
You suffer,
A time when You are unit
A time when you are a multiple!
A time when you will specialize
A time when you will universalize-
a time when YOU viii be the prisoner
Of your formula
A time when you viii escape from your
formula"
And so on. All this affirmation was
platitudc in the youth of the singer of the
Song Of Solomon, but rarely if ever has
it been so finely stated; and it cannot be
stated too much Indeed it will never be
stated enough and every neophyte, deSpis-
ing it, Will forever be obliged, as Nine.

MISSISSIPPI HAS new
COTTON MARKET PLAN

NAZ0o CITY, Miss. Oct. Il. tSptD-
Cooperative marketing has taken a
new turn IN Mississippi in the adoption
or a plan 70 market cotton in the man
ner in which Mississippi has been mar
keting It's live stock for some time. The
new plan ts being tried out in Attala
county, and the city OF Kosciusko has
just had its first cooperative cotton
sale. The sale Is said TO have resulted
in q little better price to the growers
OF Attala county for their cotton.
The reason Is simply that there
was SO much cotton marketed on that
day that II paid out-of-town cotton
buyers to have agents present and
make competition a little keener for the
cotton,
