Fan of old?
Perhaps the blow upon his head had
numbed his senses temporarily-who
may say? Closer crept the stealthy
creature through the reeds. The
rustling curtain of vegetation parted
few PAGES from where the sleeper
lay, and the massive head of lion
appeared.
1t was the beating of the beasts

Tarzan. Jungle folk do not awaken

Apes, sentient, vigilant, ready.
Whether it was surprise, fear or
caution which prompted the lion
crouching ready to spring upon the
man, is immaterial-th fact remains
that he did not carry out his original
design, he did not spring at the man
at all, but, instead, wheeled and
sprang back into the reeds as Tarzan
arose and confronted him.
The ape-man shrugged his broad
shoulders and looked about for his
companion. Werper was nowhere to
be seen. At first Tarzan was puzzled !;
but presently came to the conclusion
that Werper had been frightened by
the approach of the lion and had
sneaked off in terror. A sheer touched
Tarzan's lips as he pondered the mans
act-the desertion of a comrade in
time of danger, and without warning.
Well, If that was the sort of creature
Werper was, Tarzan wished nothing
more of him. He had gone, and for all
the ape-man cared, he might remain
away-Tarzan would not search for
him.
A hundred yards from where he
stood grew large tree, alone upon
the edge of the reedy jungle. Tarzan
made his way to it, clambered into it,
and finding comfortable crotch

GARFIELD AND THE COAL SITUATION

The circumstances of the resigna-
ton Of DR.. Harry A. Garfield, fuel ad-
ministrator are likely to keep him in
the public eye for some time for the
reason that he is understood to believe
that the work of the commission au-
thorized under the settlement, to be
made up of one coal mine operator,
coal miner and third person named
to represent the public, will result in
an increase in the price of coal to the
consuming public.
To this form of settlement Doc
tor Garfield has been unalterably Op-
posed. 1t has been learned on good
authority that he took no part in the
negotiation with the mine workers

jobs in cooking! Cooking is mans
job and woman's place is the parlor.
AS a matter of fact, there probably
are highly paid chefs today who feel
just that way about it.
The situation was getting to the
point where there was no place for
the women in the working world to
60 but out. There are even some ex-
tremists who believe that the care Of
children should be taken out of the
home and away from the mothers
hands.
ct is here the clinging vine gets
into the picture" said Miss Laughlin.
"She developed as a dollhouse plant,

her to do Industry had been moved

still in the home, but there was moth

Of these idle girls were responsible for
their paraSitism, because they had had
to work so very hard themselves that
their ideal for their daughters was a
condition which would make it pos
sible for them to do nothing harder
than sit on a cushion and sew a fine
seam.
''But the swing backward toward
primitive standards, when woman was
worker to the cave man period, If
you choose, made long sweep during
the war. Women had been seeping
into the professions and businesses
before that time, but their progress
had been almost imperceptible.
"Thus old-time efficiency, inherited
from their industrious grandmothers,
no doubt, asserted itself with their new
wartime jobs. Employers were salts
fed and clients made happy. So the
women are staying with their new
work"
According to Miss Laughlin, there
isn't anything disastrous in the situa-
ton. She believes that there is plenty
Of work to be done for both men and
women in industrial and professional
lines.
Efnclency ana WORK are NOT mat
ters of sex" is her dictum.
Miss Laughlin is far from the "cave
woman" in looks, but she is endowed
with vigor of mind and spirit which
would do her cave grandmothers
credit. Miss Laughlin practices law
in San Francisco. She was born in
New England. Her college education
was secured at Wellesley and she was
graduated in law from Cornell uni
versity, one Of two women in her class.
Later Miss Laughlin went to Colo
RADIO, where she was active in politics,
women having been granted the right
to vote in that state while she was
in college. A number of years ago
Miss Laughlin went to San Francisco
and there she has built up large law
practice. At first her clients were
nearly all women. But the war added
men to the list And these men, who
went to her first because their former
counsel had gone to war, have found
the woman lawyer so competent that
they retained her even when the meg

nave seen in our great war the way in
which men and women naturally lined
| up on the primitive basis. The men
OF the nations, in this country, Eng
land, France and the others, went into
military service. The women took VI
the industries.
Now the surprise attendant upon
the news that women were working
in munition factories, were running
streetcars and doing mems work In
offices wouldn't have been so great
perhaps, if we had all remembered q
little more of our pre-history"
Miss Laughlin reminds us that in
his account of primitive races the late
Otis 7. Mason, curator of ethnology
In the United States National Museum
points out some of the industries which
began as woman's work. He says:
''The slain deer lying before her cave
or brush shelter or wigwam She
strikes off a sharp flake Of flint fol-
knife. BY that act she becomes the
first cutler
"With this knife she carefully re-
moves the skin, little dreaming that
thereby she is making herself the
patron saint of all subsequent
butchers.
"She rolls up the hide, then dresses
it with brains, smokes it, curries it.
breaks it with implements Of stone
and bone until she makes her reputa-
ton as the first currier and tanner.
"With needle of bone and thread of
sinew and scissors of flint, she cuts
and makes the clothing for her lord
and family: no sign is over the door,
but within dwells the first tailor and
dressmaker
"FrOm leather especially prepared
sheacuts and makes moccasins for her
husband, thereby beginning the shoe
industry.
"She was toymaker for her chill
dren, modiste, milliner, uphOlsterer,
wall decorator for her family.
"She was at first and is now the
universal cook. From the grasses
around her cabin she constructs the
floor mat, the mattress, the screen, the
wallet, the sail.
''She is the mother of all spinners,
weavers, upholsterers, sailmakers."
Again he says:
"To the field she goes with the
basket or wallet strapped across her
forehead. By the sweat Of her face
she earns her bread and becomes the
first pack animal"
'sHome again with her grain or
acorns, she thrashed and ground them
into -four or bran, thereby mothering
the thrashing industry and the mill
ing. Where it was impossible to find
caves or natural shelter for her family
she designed and built the first wig
vans and forerunners # houses, thus
being the first architect.
"All the peaceful arts of today"
continues the account, were once
woman's peculiar province. Along
lines of industrialism she was pio-
neer. inventor, author and originator"
As conditions became more settled
for primitive tribes, men gave up their
warfare and entered women's indus
tries. Gradually they took nearly all
of them. AS work was taken from

it became mans work.
"NOw homework is diminishing to
such an extent that many women, if
they are to work at all, must go to
the Office or the factory" said Miss
Laughlin.
SIN the beginnings of the profess
sions women did not make much of
a showing. They practiced medicine
in the actual care of the sick. But
medicine, as a profession, was linked
in primitive times with tribal leader
ship and with priestcraft to such an
extent that it belonged almost entirely
to men.
1T has been only in the last few
years that women were admitted to
our medical schools of any standing.
And the few women physicians before
the war had little or no real practice.
Take it in our own time, out in some
neighborhood where there is no doctor.
If some one is i'll or baby comes, do
we send for a man? Certainly not ;
it's woman who is called in to help.
"The law? There isn't mother,
never has been a mother, who didn't,
at times, have to act as judge and
jury in the disputes Of her children.
Father may be the court of appeals,
but she is on the bench all day.
Every day a mother has to decide and
act according to her decisions. And
woe unto her if she is an unjust judge.

Laughlin, "the progress Of modern In
vention did not touch us for a long
time. The industrial revolution, which
took from the home so much of it's
drudgery, had not reached there when
/ was a little girl.
"We made our own soap, our own

tory is doing work formerly done by

"The great canning factories, plants

work of the meat packing industries,
are built upon work that was formerly
all done by women.
"In the Philippine islands, where the
basis of the family system was the
matriarch, the mother was head Of

and budgeted her household. In Eu-
rope, among the small shopkeepers espe-
cially, women are the cashiers Of the
family and of the business"
Cooking, homemaking and dress
making are still done in the homes
all over the country to such an extent
that they are still considered wOmen's
work, Miss Laughlin pointed out. But
with community housekeeping and
community kitchens and ready-made
clothes, the day may come when the
men in charge of the machines that
make the home go round will say:

ing to have visions of the good OLD
days of the cave man he must be con-
sistent and include in his delectaDle
dream the real cave woman"
Later, in her apartment in hotel,
Miss Laughlin went into the subject
with New York Tribune reporter in
q manner which showed that she has
given much study to the domestic ar
rangements of the man and the woman
whose wooing consisted of fOotrace
and a blow on the lady's head with
some hard, blunt instrument.
"If the men insist on delving into
the secrets of those monOlithic prede-
cessors Of the New York apartment
house." said Miss Laughlin, 'then they
must take the consequences and an
Swer by what right they can call any
work the work of meA, unless perhaps
it is hunting and fishing. Back in that
ideal period for which the modern man
pines practically all of the work be-
longed to the women. So when our
men talk about mans work I'd like to
know just what they mean."
Kipling is one of the few men who
really understand what the relation
ship of the cave man and the cave
woman was, according to Miss Laugh
lin, AS proof Of her contention she
cites his "Just So stories, which he
told TO his "best beloved" You will
remember the place where it says:
"The man was wild, too. He was
dreadfuIly wild. He didn't even begin
to be tame until he met the woman,
and she told him that she did not like
living in his wild ways"
You will remember how it was. She
picked out a nice, dry cave (proving,
by the way, that there was a cave
woman before there was cave mani,
and she cleaned house properly and
hung a dried wild horse skin across
the opening of the cave and said:
"Wipe your feet, dear, when you
come in, and now Wen keep house"
And the man came in and lay down
beside the fire that the woman had
built and went to sleep.
"But just before he dozed of" said
Miss Laughlin, che probably threw
ont his chest and remarked that he
was a cave man himself and believed
that a woman's place was In the
home"
And Miss Laughlin agrees with Mr..
Kipllng in the theory that the motive
for keeping house was the protection
of the baby. Long periods without
food. which were bound to be part Of
the life Of a nomadic people, we're
hard on the young, and that is the
reason the woman decided to keep

going to say that such and such is

as well admit that every man in in
dustry is doing work which was orig
lnally woman's work.
