Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, August 19.-''Noth-
ing has held women 30 much in
bondage as the popular masculine
conception Of chivalry. and today
1t is one of the biggest handicaps
to woman's progress"
This statement was made by Mrs.
Calvin N. Gabriel, vice president
of the Just Government League. at
a meeting this week. who declared
that the dangerous and ridiculous
chivalry of feudal days is still in
force. despite the operation Of the
suffrage amendment.
The old age of chivalry was
joke. It paid homage to the baron's
lady and kicked out on the road
the poor peasant woman with her
humble donkey" Mrs. Gabriel de-
clared. She explained that mere
man often quoted suffrage as de-
stroying courtesy and chivalry. but
that the old order has really been
only a mocking farce, which had
denied to the working woman
equal rights with the working
man.
Down through the ages" Mrs.
Gabriel continued, there has been
an entirely wrong conception that
a woman should be humored and
treated like a child. Chivalry real
ly doesn't mean anything more to-
day but an attempt to discredit a
woman-to make her feel as
though she has no responsibilities
or duties but to be household

HANDICAP TO WOMAN,S PROGRESS

drudge. This age is gradually
passing and both men and women
seem to resent this fact through a
mistaken idea that women will
lose their imaginary elevated po-
sition. Men have always enjoyed
saying that women should be
placed on a pedestal. 1t was all a
subtle form of flattery that
smoothed over many hard facts
and cruel realities which were not
SO complimentary to members Of
the fair sex"
Mrs. Gabriel said that men and
women will never be able to work
or cooperate together until they
eliminate the mistaken idea of
chivalry.
1T should be f1fty-fifty propo-
sition all the way through" she
said. "a woman should not expect
or even want to have privileges
that a man cannot share. II she
wants to enjoy the really big
things Of life, she must learn to
renounce the petty little vanities
that formerly have constituted her
whole world"
Speaking of the many differences
in the privileges that are granted
to men and women, Mrs. Gabriel
declared that there would be far
greater justice for women in the
courts IL the fair sex were per-
mitted to serve on turies in this
state.
