Stopping Them
This Week.

see the end of the leap year articles,
but the mail brings us new prospects
every day, so We are continuing as
long as our contributors keep us sup
piled with bachelors.
You literary and some of you nom
literary folk have doubtless known
that we have visiting this broad
country of ours Blasco lbanez, q very
famous Spanish author. lbanez wrote
the Four Horsemen of the something
or other, and often puts out to the
admiring public his views on America
and American customs. He recently
stated that American women are
tired of the gentle treatment they re-
ceive at the hands of the American
men; in short, that they want to be
treated rough.
Cave man stuff is his idea of the
proper method for the men of this
country to handle the women. Treat
EN- rough, and tellum nothing"
says the gifted Spaniard.
All of which may be perfectly all
right and may work in good many
instances, but if you'll notice the
size and weight of a number of our
fair American women, you'll hesitate
before starting a haymaker in their
general direction. Even in Black
foot and Bingham county there are
number of the fairer and weaker
sex who would make Jack Dempsey
stop, look and listen before tangling
with them.
A famous French dramatist, Hen
ri Bataulle, takes exception to the
remarks of the Spaniard with the un-
pronounceable name and starts off
with the remark that IF American
women are tired of American men--
if they want real masters, we must
conclude that American men are poor
when she loves; she wants to feel in
dependent and equal to man-when
she does not love.
However, as every psychologist
knows, it is impossible to generalizt
on the general rule that the sexes
are equal and should have equal
rights and equal privileges. The fact
that woman is different from man
does not mean that she is inferior.
Where love is concerned, woman as
well as man reverts to nature.
Our passions today are no differ
emit from those of the cave jewellers
in the days when woman was happy |
to follow her master, who was armed |
with the club. The present day con-
have abolished the club, /
but love remains woman's main de.
sire-and when she loves she utter
ly surrenders.
"Such feelings also are conceived |
by men, tho in much lesser degree.
Thus one can always tell when !
man is in love from his changed hab-
it's, the change often bordering on
the ridiculous
Evidently the American man is
an easier mark for cupid than the |
American woman - therefore, his |
to woman makes him less
Oh the ancient theory that
nobody wants what everyone has"
Another distinguished Frenchman,
Marcel Provost, says that the Ibanez
plan of beating them up is the bunk.
Then he goes on: 1T is impossible
for any man in any country to master
woman with the club. She can be
mastered only by love-especially
when her own love is unrequited.
The woman who complained to
Senior Ibanez that she was tired of
iAcllCdH ulcu SuUJCCLlOH lCdlly
meant that she was tired of too much
owe.
Women at certain moments need
| master; that is when they are in
owe and fight for sex leadership.
Then, instinctively they submit un-
'onditionally, hoping by utter sur
'ender to propitiate mans love.
Americans treat women with too
great respect and admiration. They
should learn to treat them very gen.
ly but lightly. They should never
ct woman know that she is loved.
Thus-and thus alone-will wom-
m be left to guess continually, to be
lever sure of her man. And thus
will she unquestionably feel his mas
cry and will always be ready to sur
ender."
And who is mere man to believe?
But take tip from cupid's old un-
lie, you bachelors, If you fall for the
ave man theory, pick little wom-
n. Don't go out and grab big one.
