A COMMENT.

In the current number OF the Delin-
Gator is an interesting and timely ar
ticle on Women in Politics. by that
veteran in politics Hon. Joseph q.
Cannon, former speaker Of the nation
al house of representatives. The ar
ticle is Interesting both because OF the
wrtters long and varied experience ri
public life, and because of his charaSs
teristically terse and humorous way OF.
stating his opinions.
On the general subject OF the infil-
ence OF women In shaping the affairs
of the world Mr.. Cannon nays, among
other things:
Itdhas been the privilege Of women
to advise. persuade and dictate ever
since the first woman gave to the
ffrstsman the fruit from the Tree Of
Knowledge and then shared with him
the responsibility for that first aiso-
bedience, u weF AZ the consciousness
that fis-leavesSwere not IN good form.
She has led man into ways Of wisdom
and pleasantness or into ways OF
trouble throughout the history Of the
World, and while many men, perhaps
the majority. have considered them
selves AZ masters Of their ~ownsfate,
the yare GENERALLY mistaken. they
follow the advice. appeal Or ,dictation
Of their women. and generally adopt
the poiicys.of Adam, and only acknowl-
edge their secondary responsibility
Fwhsn they are expelled from Paradise.

among their fellow men, but were
