country. 1t is claimed that the "bal-
lot is a household utensils" and is the
strength of women to make them
selves felt in public affairs. The wis
dom of Solomon applies today. TShe
looketh we'll to the ways of her house
hold,' is as true of women today as
it was in Solomon's day. The changes
of time vary our methods but not our
motives.
ga generation ago the mother could
remain at home and know that the
water was sanitary, the milk was pure,
the eggs fresh, the meat wholesome,
the bread clean, and her canned foods
unadulterated. She taught her chill
dren at her knee, they played about
the door, and, when they were old
enough to work, she controlled the
conditions of their labor. Now in
dustry has become specialized. One
by one, these activities have left the
home and gone out into the world.
Water comes through city pipes; milk
is left in bottle at the door; bread is
baked by those who do not expect to
eat it; food comes in boxes and in cans
from the four corners of the earth.
The children follow the work into the
factories and are directed-not by
mothers, but by overseers. How, in
this day, can the good wife "look well
to the ways of her household" except
by using the ballot To assure JUS
tice, economy, safety quality and
cleanliness, thousand and one regu.
lations are laid about these products
and activities. Regulations are made
by the legislative bodies and enforced
by the executive officers who are
elected by and responsible to the
people.
"Only by being voter, by helping
to choose those who shall rule, car
the housewife of today "look we'll tt
the ways of her household" The ballo
has become our most valuable house
hold utensil. We would consider he

the best he has ever known them.
Washington and Oregon lumber mills
are operating on full time to supply
the demand for lumber.
"The leading industrial publication
in the South declares that that sec
tion of the country "now leads in
prosperity" and that with a big crop
of cotton and high prices the cotton
producers will have more than ST.
33O,OO0,OOO to spend this coming Fall
and Winter. Next to cotton, lumber
IS the chief money producer of the
South, and it is announced that the
mills are having difficulty in keeping
up with the demand.
"From every section of the cOun-
try comes the report that farmers
manufacturers and others, following
the defation period and its costly
liquidation, are pretty well able tC
finance themselves and are not Dor
rowing heavily"
Smyrna times., 1922-09-27

widespread prosperity is the an
nouncement of the National Autcmo-
bile Chamber of Commerce that the
output of automobiles for August,
1922, was 12- per cent. greater than
in July and So per cent. greater than
in August a year ago. The demand
for automobiles indicates an ability to
buy and confidence in the future.
"Increasing business activity is al
so shown by diminishing number of
idle freight cars. At the end of Aug
ust the tabulation of reports made by
the American Railway Association
showed 7O,455 idle freight cars, de-
crease of more than $4,000 in the last
week of the month.
"Much of the confidence in Ameri-
can prosperity in the coming year is
based on the practical certainty of
huge agricultural crops at reasonably
good prices. The wheat crop of the
United States is estimated at 05,000,-
, 900 bushels, or 100000 bushels
more than last year and 120,000,000
bushels more than the average yield
J. for the normal period 19O9-13. The
large crop in the United States might
indicate a materially reduced price
were it not or the fact that the world
production of wheat is below the yield
of last year.
"The steel market, which is always
cited as a barometer of business con-
ditions, tells an encouraging story.
Demand is increasing, and mills have
been able to increase prices SO per ton
and are getting a premium for i'm
mediate deliveries. Prices for pig
iron, pipe and wire have also adj
vanced.
reports from Chicago are to the
effect that ten out of twelve groups
of industries show a material gain in
the number of employees. The in
creasing demand for labor was evi-
denced some time ago in Eastern
States by an advance of 20 per cent
in wages paid in steel mills and alsC
, increased wages paid in cotton mills.
"From San Francisco comes an
nouncement of the doubling of the
size of the principal steel plant am

setting the environ
ment of both home and business-may
make or break US. 1t is a serious
matter which party we choose. 1t
makes big difference by which pol
icies we are controlled. That house
wife who wants her home to prosper
cannot afford to sit idle while a polit
ical campaign is in progress. Not
only should she study to use her own
ballot wisely, but she should stir up
her neighbors that their combined
housewifely and motherly care shall
follow the interests of the home and
the welfare of the family into the
government, where these are now adj
ministered.
''The women of Delaware have the
same interest in national, state, coun-
ty and town government as women of
other states, and they must meet the
responsibility by registering and vot-
ing for such persons as will best dis
charge the duties as legislators OF
administrators of laws. Women GER
tainly are the equal of men as to men
tality, and they must learn that
through and by their apathy, public
affairs will soon drift into political col
ruption. The women must exercise
their right to vote to get the best
government"
Smyrna times., 1922-09-27

Every woman has the responsibility
of both government of the home and
political administration resting on her
says The Milford Chronicle" How the
women meet this responsibility will in
a very large measure depend govern
ment of our towns, the countries and
the states. If they permit their op-
portunity to slip by without taking
part in primary elections, they will
find that the ordinary class of men
will have usurped their privileges and
placed individuals who are incompet-
ent or criminally careless of the rights
of the tax payers,in their administra-
tion of public business. The Women's
National Publicity Committee at
Washington has issued a warning to
the women of the land, which is i'm
portant and should be read carefully
by women generally, for it tells truths
plainly and points out the why and
reason for women taking an active
part in the public affairs of their

President Harding's veto of the ill
advised bonus bill while temperate is
nevertheless a strong message that
will greatly add to his fine record al
ready made. It's arguments are un-
answerable. In entirely parliamen-
tary language he quietly skins the
coward,y time-scrving politicians in
both branches of Congress, who voted
for this unjustinable demand on the
National treasury at a time when de-
spite amazing reductions running into
billions, the years expenses will still
show a deficit of nearly billion.
1t required wisdom and courage of a
high order to perform this wise and
patriotic act, and not only will the
country applaud it, but time will
abundantly justify it. 1t is highly
gratifying to Delawareans to know
that both Senators Ball and DUPONT
and our Representative Layton, voted
against the bonus bill
Smyrna times., 1922-09-27

Delawareans no doubt have noticed,
says the Wilmington Evening Journal,
that from every section of the coun-
try comes news of increasing business
activity, particularly in lines of in
dustry ond construction. In every
respect, the business outlook is the
best it has been since the wartime
prosperity came to an end. The re-
cent offering of $2OO,OOO,OOO of treas
ury certificates at S& per cent, over
subscribed to the extent of $3OO,OOO,-
COO proves the abundance of capital
ready for investment at a reasonable
return, and the continuing low rate in
financial centers, even with the har-
vest demand coming on, leaves no
doubt that plenty of money is ready
to aid any wise industrial undertake
ing.

All this preliminary to i'm

once, when the party missed Mr..

room sewing up his trousers,
which developed a conspicuous
rip when he was getting out of
