1t is a WOman's Duty to be Well
Informed OH all Subjects

great thing in a woman's life.
Not the old antiquated idea OF
woman's inferiority to man, that
she must needs be nothing but q
home drudge, but the 1920 idea
of the 1920 woman for her 1920
husband.
1t is up to US to he able to dis
cuss end be well grounded on all
subjects from religion to base
bail. That we are not is merely
because we ara mentally lazy
and for no other reason the old
belief Of woman's mental in teri-
GRITTY to man has been forever
abolished by statistics carefully
painstaking!y compiled by the
greatest psychologists of recent
years.
| do not mean that we are to
give up our natural instincts OF
home making. The home has
always and shall always be the
heart of happiness. There the
child should get everything thai
the world will one day demand
of him.
This is the greatest reason
that it is a woman's duty to be
well Informed on all subject-.
Next comes her duty to her
husband. The man has always
been in the world mirgIing and
acquiring ideas Of all kinds and
classes, while tie woman's life
has been bounded by for walls,
II is only Of recent years that all
the wortd is awakening to the
true vision Of woman.
Now, that we are coming into
our own, we must prove our
ability.
One great responsibility has
been given Suffrage. Wei
have been given the vote. We.
must not be slackers. 1t is our
unsherkable duty to possess a
common sense knowledge es-
pecially of our home town poll
tics as well as national.
We have been given the power
to force better laws: let us use it.
Cardinal Gibbons has issued an
oral statement that it is the
sisters duty to vote. Surely
this should give US sufficient
proof that we must take an ac-
tive interest in our social wei
fare. Not alone politically should
we be active in our community,
but in the church, the school, in.
a charitable way and we must
see to it that our community life
is clean both morally and from a
sanitary standpoint for all these
things directly affect our homes.
1t is in our power to perfect
our community life and by so do
ing we have accomplished just
that much towards the better
Inent Of the worlds delemmas.
Nor should we take up our en-
lire leisure moments with poll
tics. There is art, music, science
and scores Of vital interesting
which may be covered. +
Nor must we even forget a touch !
of sports. :
This is a subject for unlimited
discussion. 1t is human nature
to be most interested in that
which7immediately concerns us, !
therefore. | have only touched in
a general manner the ideas we |
are most interested in.
1t is not impossible to possess 1
at least a speaking acquaintance J
of things | have stated, for that '
is easily obtained through the
medium, your daily paper and
current magazines. n
Those of US who possess the +
scholarly interests will naturally 4
go deep into all subjects.

Prices Must Go to Stable
Level, Says Credit Man
Dehation Process Should Not

There has been no weakening in the
fundamental soundness OF the coun
try's economic structure. and credit re-
sources are sufficient for legitimate
commercial needs, even if commodity
movements were normal in volume. ac-
cording to j. II. Tregoe, ,secrctary-treas-
urer OF the National Association Of
Credit Men. This statement was made
by the credit authority in his December
monthly letter to the $4,000 members
Of the association.
The intensification of the present in
dustrial depression should not cause
undue alarm, his letter begins, for the
country is only experiencing the nat
ural sharp reaction from an unnatural
period. The elements entering into the
maHing Of prices were overplayed and
tendencies indulgcd which upset the
normal movement of commerce, il cor

1T is unwise to deprcciate the seri-
BUSINESS OF ;he present time it CON
tinues, "or to rate the causes OF what
we are witnessing as entirely psyche
logical. The detiation process must
proceed in orderly fashion. Discount
rates and the control of credit must
continue, but with the purpose over it
all not to hinder legitimate business,
bat simply to assist in the dehation OF
credit and currency in reaching that
sta bic price level which must be reach ID

Catholic Editor Defines
Justifable Revolution

Conditions that may justify r"volu~
ton were outlined yesterday in an ad
dress at Fordham University by the
Rev. Richard II. Tierncy. S. j., editor
Of America. Father Ticrney's address
was the second in series on Pros
poets of Justice" He said:
Revolution is justihablc when the
following essential conditions are
present.:
of the infringement of the consti-
tuition by those in authority is serious
and of long standing.
II there is no way OF gaining re-
dress unless by revolution.
"lf the leaders Of the revolt are real
ly leaders of the people.
"lf there is probable hope Of
success.'
Father Tierney declared that the
foregoing was Catholic doctrine and
that unless the whole world was taugh,
this doctrine and taught it bravcly the
world would soon be under the control
Of tyrants. Civil liberty, he said, was a
precious and individual liberty
The Jesuit editor said the American
Revolution was justifablc in every
way and the men who carried it to sue
cess were blessed

Would lie always have to live in TINT

near the big hickory tree. He felt that
