things are dead ones. They may be
able to wear clothes and eat meals.
but they are at the dead line. and a
small push will land them on the hui
man dump. It's taking hold with your
hands that makes you rejoice in your
grip. It's in seeing the miles pass I'M
der your feet that makes you glad you
have good staying powers and makes
light Of dashes and Marathons. It's
wrestling with big problems that shows
the mental measure and teaches you
to respect yourself. Your best; days
are the days Of achievement. Then it
is that you feel the challenge to do
and rejoice in the doing. When chal-
lenges no longer call, you lose faith
in yourself and the joys Of conquest
You keep young longer by doing

the United States has never before
been out of the country at the begin
ming of a session Of Congress. The
usual procedure is for a joint COM
n1ittee Of the House and Senate to
cali at the. White House and inform
the President that Congress is IN ses-
sion and ready to receive his mes
sage. but the plan was abandoned on
this occasion because the President
is in Paris. The Senate disposed OF
the difficulty in its usual dlginifled
manner, by cabling the President a
marked copy of newspaper contain
ing an announcement of the opening
OF the session but this was defeated.
Another suggestion was that he be
notified by cable collect (the SEN
ate message was prepaid.); this was
also defeated. Finally there was a
suggestion that a letter be written to
the President, telling him Of the
opening Of the session. and sent to
the White House; and this action
was finally taken.

WoMAN'S PROBLEMS.

One Of the immemorial wrongs
which women have endured is the
male habit Of regarding crisis in
the kitchen as a joke instead Of what
1t truly is. calamity. In this attitude
we. of the. older suffrage, display a
wretched consistency. On the one
hand. we yield to no one in acknowl-
edging the home as the foundation Of
society. On the other hand, we regard
everything connected with the eco
nomics of the home as proper subject
matter for Life and Judge. Hus-
bands will return to their families at
the end of day and clamor for SYM
pathy against stupid Office boy, says
Harper's Magazine. But they seem un-
able to understand what sudden out
break of sabotage in the kitchen may
mean in the way Of dislOcation and
tangled nerves. That is to say they
understand and they do not under
stand. The dagger drives deep enough
into the soul when emergency compels
man to put on gingham apron over
a basin of hot water. But the situa-
ton, though bitter. is never quite real.
It ought not to be. If only the edu-
Gated masculine mind were trained on
the problem! Unfortunately, that edu-
Gated mind must hurry downtown to
grapple with the vital problem OF 4
new Office boy.

Congressional Proceedings

At the opening session Of Congress
Monday hundreds of bills were in
troduced. many of which are of far
reaching Importance. From the ma
ture of a number Of the bills it
seems evident that the Republicans
will quickly assume the work and
responsibility for postwar recon-
struction. There was much rivalry in
the attempts of various Congress
men to be the first to introduce a
bill. the winner being Representative
Mann of Illinois, who introduced. as
Joint Resolution No. l, the Susan B.
Anthony Amendment to the Consti-
tuition, granting women the right to
vote. Joint Resolution No. 2, which
was introduced by Representative
STEVENSON, Republican,. of Minne-
sofa, Chairman of the Committee on
Postoffices and~ Post Roads, was e
proposal for the immediate tef,nina-
ton of Governmental possession and
operation of the telephone. and tefe-
graph systems of the country.
The fact that there. is to be a
prompt attempt to repeal the pres
ent court martial law is indicated by
: bill for that purpose introduced
by Representative Johnson of South
Dakota. '-e'e =
A bill to repeat the war tax on
soft drinks was introduced by Rep
fesenfative. Longworth Of Ohio. 1t
is said that it will be followed by
other measures for. the modification
OF what he considers the more OBJ
jeetionable war taxes.
A Republican Representative q
Hampton Moore, Of Pennsylvania,
Ranking member of the Ways and
Means Committee) introduced bill
for the repeal of the so-ca!led luxu-
ny taxes. A similar measure was
passed by the House of Representa-
tives at the last session. Republi-
cans and Democrats alike are now
expected to join in an effort to put
this measure on the statute books at
an early date.
Many other bills were also intro
duced. including a number providing
for the repeal of the daylight saving
law. The seven big appropriation
bills which failed at the last session
will be introduced within few days.
Reconstruction measures of various
kinds have already been introduces
