WHAT is A GREAT WOMANP

WHAT is A GREAT WOMANa
Perhaps if some one would first
answer that question, setting up some
sort of a standard, there would be a
chance of listing 10 American women
who are or have been truly great. As
1T is there seems to be wide diverg-
ance in choice with not much promise
of an agreement.
Brisbane says that unless you have
done and can show something that can
be called great in itself, you may be
admirable, but you are not great. But
Brisbane has not confined himself to
American women in his selections.
Neither has Gloria Swanson. Gloria
gives the following as her ideals of
truly great women, recounting at
length her reasons for the choice made.
Joan of Arc, Florence Nightingale,
Harriet Beecher Stowe, Betsy Ross.
Nancy Hanks Lincoln, Queen Elizabeth,
Susan B. Anthony, Mary Baker Eddy,
Rosa Bonheur and. Jenny Lind. Wells
has not chosen any woman in his list
of historical greatness, but his standard
is about same as that set up by Bris-
bane. The latter has accounted great
the mothers of George Washington and
Sarah Bernhardt; and why not' They
both contributed to the world illustri-
GUS characters whose achievements will
grow brighter with time, a man and a
woman who not only achieved for them
selves, but left lasting impress upon
the civilization of the world. Surely
any such list as that sought should in
clude att least one mother who has
given to the world a great; man or
woman. s

TRUE SYMBOL OF
FIGHTING SPIRIT

Salisbury, Md, Dec. 22.-That the
American eagle will fight to its death
rather than suffer the humiliation to
A. Taylor Of Quantico today told of his
fight with al eagle which assumed
the offensive until it was killed. The
bird, which was of the baldhead spec
les. measured six feet. seven inches
between the tips of its wings, and
will be mounted for exhibition.
Taylor, who was driving along a
country road, was attracted by a noise
in a clump of bushes. Upon sinvestiga-
ton he discovered the eagle endeavor-
ing to rise in the rair with the head
of a full grown hog. Before Taylor
could realize what was happening the
bird started an onslaught against him.
In the struggle the eagle was knocked
to the ground several times. each time
recovering and resuming the attack.
Only after receiving a blow on the
head from a club rendering it uncons-
cious did the eagle give up the en-
counter.

making the farm loan system the
vehicle for extension Of agricultural
credits, after the senate banking COM
mittee had spent the greater part of
the day fastening to arguments by
mons. Democrat, North Carolina, in
support of their respective credit
measures. (.
Opposing the South Dakota and
North Carolina members OF the upper
house was Gray Silver, representing
the American Farm Bureau federation
who did not agree with the senators
on some, points of administration.
Chief among the suggestions advoca:-
tied by the senator's was q credit sys-
tenn independent Of the federal re-
serve system. 80
MI. Silver coGntended that present
TROUBLES were chiefly due to the fact
that short time credit forced the far
meB to sell their crops and that the
senators, in making their loans COW
er only the period in which the far
mer was making his crop, would fail
to remedy. conditions. He argued for
an intermediate credit system to sup
plement the present farm loan ma

tition to 1t. I
