Civilized Woman Versus Primitive Man.
(New York Evening Post. )

(New York Evening Post.)
 It is a commonplace of the more superficial crit icsm of American society by foreigners that the arts are abandoned the women while the men pay their exclusive devotions to Business in paatial temples downtown. The male American told is n0t interested in and literature and music He leaves all that to his wOmenfolk who have consequently be- the chief patrons of the artist. What will the British opponents of this theory when they read the current of the Nineteenth Century? First place. in that grave depository of othodox English thought, given article "Women and Civ iiizaton" which is elaborate justification of our Ialleged attitude towards the arts in this country.
 Civilized woman, it seems, has departed 'lmmeas- uraby further from the primitive than has man. The English gentleman of today has hundred interests in common with the cave-man; his wife has very few. The best kind ui is, has been, and always will De primitive Fightng, seafaring, farming, and mechan- ics his ideal occupations. The intellectual male is degenerate Did not the poet declare that genius and madness nearly allied?
 Woman on the other hand, has been admired and celebrated precisely the degree which she has represented civilized virtues. The primitive woman may the ideal of movie fans; she is not the heroine of history. Cromwell Warren, Hastings, and Give rather than Bryon, Keats and Shelley, the great men in the story of the English The great women. the other hand, are Fanny Burney, Jane Austen, and the Bontes-a great wits who not nearly allied to madness. Intellectual women are perfectly and wholesome, unlike the unhealthy Eeuroic of genius, because the arts of cviliza tion and culture their natural sphere The male of species is naturally destined to fulfill the role of the backwoodsman.

FRANKLIN EFFICIENCY

Unlike other automobiles, the
Franklin is not dependent upon the
forward rush of the car for cooling
efficiency.
1t was to prove that the Franklin
air-cooling system operates with abb
solute independence of external con-
ditions that Eugene Martin of San
Diego. Cal, backed his Touring Car
to the peak of Soledad Mountain.
The mountain trail, which is about
two miles long, includes grades from
10 to 35 per cent. Three observers
who watched the car perform on the
two-mile. backward, iow-gear climb,
lifted the hood when the peak was
reached and attested to the fact that
the temperature of the Franklin en-
CINE was no different than when
driven forward under the same con-
ditions.
The ouly moving part of the
Franklin cooling system is turbine
fan that draws the fresh cool air
thru the grill in front of the hood,
over the cylinder fins, and expels the
hot air in sufficient quantity to in
sure efficient cooling, no matter
which way the car is driven.

Mrs. Morehead told of many inter-

her talk was followed by an open
discussion in which many good and
practical suggestions were made.
