THE NEW CITI-
ZEN-WOMAN
BY Mrs. E. $. HOWARD.

BY Mrs. +. >. HOW ARB,
Equal Suffrage is here. The advo-
Gates OF an unrestricted ballot have
at last seated a woman in the Ameri-
can Congress and am glad that she
could weep as she voted in opposition
to war. 1t was the blessed soul of
an old regime gently breathing its
dew-drops in what women hope to be
better regime. Woman already
possessed, within her domestic
sphere, a greater power to shape
events on this planet than the SUI
preme Power ever gave Napoleon.
If there is any force on the Ameri-
can Continent to which her influence
can be likened, it is the force of
notwithstanding to the limits
of the furthest star, an influence,
that if nodded Alright, is mighty
enough for the safeguard of any ma
ton.
If woman wishes to vote who can
say her nay? There is no consti,u-
tiohaf reason for Withholding the
ballot from her. The difficulties are
superfluous but minute. We well
know that all people admire The
New Citizen-Woman, but we toe,
we'll know that the old-fashiOned
girl is loved best. She is loved for
unassuming, shy and modest life. ev-
er reminding one Of the sweet violets
in the forest, pure and innocent, re-
ceding in the shadows of the tall,
mighty and handsome oaks. At the
fireside of the world it is hers
ITO mold mighty nations DEGREES
And to shape the whispers of a
throne"
Thus we see that equal suffrage
cannot add one cubit to woman's
statue but it may detract from her
charm Of modesty-we cannot tell.
1t may dull that fine edge of chivalry
which a reverence for the gentler sey
has ever been inspired by the world

OF late. we have been noticing
editorial comment from various
sources nearly complimentary to
President Harding. But most gen.
orally they wind up by giving some
other person credit for what ne, the
President is striving to do. One in
particular we remember read like
this: The spirit actuating President
Harding in calling the Great Powers
to join us in a conference on disarma-
ment and the Far Eastern situation,
is commendable. The Chief EXecu-
tive is beginning to show some signs
of initiative, thanks to the coaching
of the Secretary of State" One of
these days some of these Democratic
Quill-drivers are going to be called
away from ink and scratch paper be-
fore they append the latter portion
of their editorial, that portion which
belittles and casts odium upon the
President, and thereby be disgraced
forever, read out Of the party and
completely ostracised by the political
brethren and their communities.

One Of the largest questions un-
der discussion for settlement today,
is perhaps that between the Irish and
Great Britain. There appears but
little doubt of the fact that Ireland
could very readily obtain the same
form of government as is accorded
Canada, and other Dominions of the
English. Whether the Irish will ac-

cept that kind of settlement appears
problematical and whether the British
Government will be willing to go
further is likewise a problem. Our
guess is that no more ground or free
dom of government will be given the
Irish than has been extended to the
Dominion to the North of the L. S.
