finally tucked myself in bed at least
one hour after John. 1 knew that
he was not asleep and knew that
it had been torture for him to lie
as still as he. had been doing, but
pursuing my resolutions as to my
mode of conduct in the future with
John Gordon, I determined that he
should speak first, and should al
least tocitly apologize by his manner
If not his tongue. I did not intend
however, to refer to the matter again
unless he brought it up.
Reviews the Past
Before / went to sleep I reviewed
what had occurred since I left my
home to come back here, and came
to the conclusion that while 1 might
not be able to live with John Gordon
under the rules.I had laid down for
myself so recently, yet it would be
impossible to live with him in the
future under any other rules fo con-
duct.
Just before | lost consciousness in
sleep I found myself speculating on
the number of women who were at
this hour of the night having the
same thoughts as /. I had gotten
all over the idea that was the most
abused woman in the world or that
my situation was unique. 1 knew at
that moment that one of the phases
of this equality that is coming to
women so rapidly was to be very
different adjustment of the marriage
relations, that, like everything else,
the equality of women must start in
the home.

que and historic feature. Senator

the irostrum. Other features Of the
opening of the third and final SEES
sion Of the sixty-sixth congress were

gregating $4,653, 000, 900 and introduce
ton in the house Of an unusual VOL

The principal business was to ar

Woman May Get First
Position Of It's
Kind

WASHINGTON, D. CIT would
be possible and profitable for Con-
gress to create an addition to the
cabinet to be known as the Depart
ment of Social Service" says the Re-
publican Publicity Association, thru
its President, Hon. Jonathan Bounre,
Jr. "This might include the Woman's
Bureau and Children's Bureau, now in
the Labor Department, the Bureau of
Education now in the Interior De-
partment, local Washington hospitals
and schools supported by the Govern
ment and now under the jurisdiction
of the Interior Department, the Pub
lie Health Service now in the Treas
ury Department, the Federal Board
for Vocational Education now a sep
arate and woefully mismanaged in
stitution, the U. S. Interdepartmental
Social Hygiene Board, and possibly
the U. S. Employees Compensation
Commission now presided ove by q
woman.
"From various sources have come
suggestions that Senator Harding
should appoint a woman to his Cab
met. Those who advocate such a de-
parture from precedent have much
sound reason on their side. Almost
half of the votes that elected Sena-
tor Harding were cast by women;
%henceforth they will have an equal
voice with the men in shaping nation
al policies; in various executive posi-
tions in state and national govern
ment they have demonstrated their
efficiency; a woman will be a Mem
Der of the next Congress; and it is
probable that never again will that
body be without a woman Member;
and in other ways the women have
established a right to be represented
in the Presidents advisory board, the
Cabinet.
