Male Autocracy's
Last Stand
in the Ministry

Chicago Sept. finale autocracy
that once ruled in every part of life
is making its last stand in the min
, istry. Miss, NJ. Madeline Southland,
president of the International Asso-
citation Of Women Preachers, told its
annual convention here tonight
Miss Southland led the struggle in
the Methodist Episcopal general CON
ference last year thut obtained Ii
cense for women to preach. Her
home is in Winfield, Kan. Women
preachers of a number of churches,
for the association is non -denomina-
tional, heard her address.
Our good friends in this land who
oppose womans admission to the
ministry seem to be serenely uncon-
scious that they are the spiritual
descendants of those who once held
women as chattels. who later shut
the schools in their faces. denied
them the ballot, and refused them
equal wages for equal work despite
the fact that thousands of them were
the family bread winners" Miss
Southland said She then reviewed
arguments against women preach
ing.
THE time was when an appeal to
scripture settled the whole thing,
men Of course doing the interpret
ing she said We have gone far
from that now for every womans
voice heard in Christian Endeavor,
Epworth League or Sunday school is
a direct violation Of the keeping 81
lence in the church. while if woman
did no teaching both public schools
and Sunday schools would suffer
considerable loss.
Another once Overwhelming ar
gument was that woman was not
mentally capable of presenting the
weighty themes that must be dealt
with in the pulpit. But since we
have had single generation of edu-
Gated women we hear little more of
that,
Again it was once seriously
claimed that woman was unequal
physically to the strain of pastoral
work-and that in the day when
women had from l. to II children
and did all the work for them, We
know of one woman who in the

charges, which l heard her district

Negotiations have been carried on

securing distribution of the Associa-
ted Producers productions by the

tors The leading figure in the en-
terprise was Nathan H. Gordon,
president of the Olympia Theatres,
Inc, creator of the Associated First
National Exhibitors
Nathan H. Gordon is a Boston
malone whose rlse to eminence in
the film universe has been remarka-
bly, swift. Four wears ago Gordon
brought into being the Associated
First National Exhibitors CoopeIu-
ton between theatre owners for the
elimination of Wasteful expense and
for the hetterment of the quality of
photo plays and methods of cNchang-
ing and distributing films was the
motive which impclled the oreaniza-
ton of the Associated First National
Exhibitors. Starting with IS fran
chlse holders in as many theatres the
Associated First National Exhibitors
has grown so rapidly that il now
numbers 1000 franchise holders
which means that Associated First

LIST TO THE PLANT OF
the TRAFFIC COP AND RULES
To GO AND RULES TO STOP

HOW do you approach the corner
OF Bridge and Water streets in your
car? Do YOU wait until You are
about ~ feet from the spindle before
you sound your horn or do you give
the oflcer ample warning?
There are numerous things which
people do that keep the oficer
guessing One of the worst of these
is the way many have of creeping up
TO the corner after receiving the
stop signal. Just the other day two
cars did this veny thing, with the
result that they had to go back up to
let an electric car pass
Another thing that bothers is to
nave car come up with an arrow
on 1t which points up and then to
have the car make the turn onto the
bridge or around the spindle. II you
nave an arrow on your car use it
properly. They can be seen much
farther than your hand
Still another is the habit MANY
nave OF putting their arm out when
they are going to turn Unless YOU
have to slow down quite a lot. do not
40 this as it indicates that you are
about TO stop. The method now in
use is to point in the direction YOU
want to go.
III you want TO drop anyone at the
corner take them by or let them off
before reaching the corner. This
week team stopped to let off two
men and this action forced three
automobiles and two other teams to
stop A little thoughtfulness here
would have saved quite lot OF
trouble for the others.
Quite difference is noted at this
corner between the manner in which
the drivers from New York and
Massachusetts approach the corner,
ana that OF our own Maine drivers.
The former who are perfectly fami-
mar with crowded ira ffic' immediately
stop If the officer is back to or facing
them. When he turns around they
move at once. Not having much oc-
caslon to drive ina crowd we from
maine drive up to him. and when
about 10 feet away give him the
norm and the laugh at the same
time. No wonder he gets sore once
IN while. Just help the officer ana
he will thank you.
