the Filipina. "Mothering the only Christian people in the far east, she holds a place of authority, love and re speet in family and social life that is not accorded to women in countries neighboring the islands, CT in India, China or Japan"
 A Finpina who is doing an impOr- tant work for her people in the Unit ed States is Mrs. Jaime c de Veyra, wife of the resident commissioner from the Philippines. Not only has she ire quently addressed the wives of mem bers of Congress in Washington as to conditions In the new Philippines, but she has visited various cities, speaking before women's clubs The senora wears, in giving her talks, one of the beautiful gowns of her home land, delicate pineapple fabric, hand-woven and hand-embroidered, shaped like gauzy-winged butterfly
 "In many ways the path of the wo- men of the Philippines is easy,' says Sonora de Veyra Laws made by her have combined the best of American and Spanish precedents, and she has come into her own with far less strug- gle than either her American or her Spanish sisters. Married women may hold property in severalty. They are guardians of their own children. These are vested rights and cannot be taken away from her.
 Professional opportunities are as good for women as for men in the land from which 1 come. The Filipina is by custom the dictator in the home She is usually the keeper of the family treasure. Practically all of the small shops in Manila are conducted by wo- men. Women are already members of the Philippine Bar Associations thing still impossible in Great Britain. They are also successful as physi- clans"
 Life is really fifty-fifty proposition for women in the Philippines, accord ing to the sonora, who has taken such a prominent part in women's work there that she has sometimes been re- ferred to as "the little mother of them all." She was the assistant natron of the Normal Hall Dormitory for Girls when she married. She speaks Eng fish huently and puts her little talks lover" with real tact She has four children. An evidence of her enter prise was her action last year in mas tering shorthand SO she might be use full to her husband at home in the eve nings in case he wishes to dictate . tew letters or . speech"

UNUSUAL BATTERY LEE

| every once in q WHILE" says Mr..
Hale, manager of the local 'Exide'
Service Station, you'll see an ad or
read some article about a starting
and lighting battery to whose life
there just doesn't seem to be any
limit. And Immediately after the
appearance of any such publicity l
am literally drowned by a deluge of
questions from my customers want
ing to know why they can't get some
such everlasting service from their
batteries.
GAS matter of fact, l don't know
why they can't-if they really give
their batteries honest and unfailing
care. This stuff about short life
and a merry one, that the pessimistic
motorist is forever pulling about his
battery, is mostly bunk. Starting
and lighting batteries will live and
do their work whole lot longer than
most people think, if, as | said be-
fore, they're given fair chance.
I've got bunch of letters in my Of
flee now-reprints of originals sent
to the home office-testimonials
from all sorts of people from all
parts of the country in which 'Exide'
Batteries that have been giving bang
up performances anywhere from
three to six years are mentioned. Of
course, no firm can guarantee any
thing like that, any more than the
seedman can guarantee his seeds
coming up--results are so markedly
dependent on the user and the local
conditions. But 1 will say that any
one who buys an 'Exide' Battery, and
backs that battery up with faithful
using Of 'Exide' Service, is surely
going to get his moneys worth-and

The Presidents Challenge


The Wilson telegram to the chair
man of the Multonomah County Dem
ocratic Central Committee, Portland
Or, is the opening gun in the Presi-
dents campaign 10 perpetuate for
another four years the autocracy by
consent which the President, acting
under the authority granted him by
Congress. and with the approval. Of
the people. set up to win the war
The shot is accurately aimed in
point Of time and place. The Oregon
presidential primaries will be held on
May y. The tendency among the
politicians of both parties in the
State has been toward conditional
ratification. Senator McNary, Re-
publican. was the widest among the
mild reservationists of his party, and
Senator Chamberlain was an even
milder reservationist among the
Democratic minority. The Wilson
telegram will have the effect of lin
ing up the Democrats of Oregon in
support of unconditional ratification
and of driving to the support of Sem
ator Johnson's presidential candi-
dacy the Democrats and the Republi-
cans who oppose ratification even
with strong reservations.
Outside Of oregon the Wilson tele-
