POLITICAL POSITIONS.

T HERE are many civic positions
which will certainly be open to
women in short time. not only
here and there, but everywhere. In
many of our smaller cities and towns
the women's clubs have done great
civic work already, proving that wom-
EN- are well fitted TO do such work.
There Is no reason at all why a woman
should not be commissioner of street
cleaning, and there seem to be many
reasons pointing to the fact that she
would be an excellent one. As factory
inspectors, as recorders, and in posi-
tions having 10 do with the household
side Of the community. women can do
excellent work.
Women who go into politics should
go with "a sense Of service TO the body
polite. II they do that and can point
to results that prove them square,
honest and devoted, many women are
going to find themselves elected to city
Jobs.
II you have bent toward civic
work. study the problems In your own
community. The past generation saw
the marvellous development of women
as to the business world. The coming
one Is sure to see an equally amazing
entry into the world Of political work
So far women who have been ap-
pointed to various city or state posi-
tions have not had to play politics
They saye been given such positions
because they were fitted for them and
had the necessary training. That is
the right spirit. Get your training and
do your studying, know your problems
and the type OF people with whom you
must work If you are fit for the job.
you have as good chance as your
brother to get it--Or you will have be-

tended those elaborate Roman gardens
was called hortensius, and, finally
through some strange quirk of fancy,

For many centuries II continued in
Italy and gradually the masculine form
Ortensio came into use as a proper
name quickly followed by the fem.

tensla OF those days was Ortensia
Mancini, the niece of Mazarin. This
notable lady carried her name into
France, where the French straightway
placed the stamp OF their language
upon II by calling It Hortense. Since
that time many famous women have

As well as man in size,
And 50 his every boyish act.

The man your boy will be.
II he the truth will follow well
You try TO make him see,
You need not watch his nights and days
In search OF guilt or guile
You only need to turn your gaze
Upon yourself awhile
There is the place for men to look.
For Fathers 10 inquire
Sons do not learn life from a book
They learn IL from their sire
The rule you make your boy obey
Must be the rule for YOU
The 0oy VIII heed the thing you SAP
But more the thing will do.
II Is not difficult TO know
The future OF the lad
For he will very likely grow
Exactly like his dad,
The life he leads as time untolds,
When boyhood days are fed.

The lie his father led.
