SO cents. including war tax.
ts5Mr. Sparks writes; lowing 10 the
high cost OF practically everything
Used by our circus. we are unable at
present TO reduce the price Of adults
fnr which we charge the standard
price OF rs cents. Knowing that the
circus is primarily a children's enter

first consideration when we felt that
business conditions warranted a
price reduction, and believe that a
far greater number OF children will
now be able to attend the circus"
Greatly enlarged this season and
Asien more lavishly equipped than in
former years. the Sparks Circus IS
preceded here by complimentary
newspaper reviews from cities in
which IL has recently exhibited.

And they firmly contend that the

OF womanhood.
Victims OF War.
During the war Il was necessary
for numbers OF girls TO leave of
their school careers and take up du-
ties in the Industrial ranks. This Is
unfortunate. There is a gap in their
lives. no doubt, but many OF these
girls have entered business or public
life with the requisite preparation
acquired through a broadness OF out-
look. a keenness OF perception and
sympathy and a breadth Of view.
The value Of all this can be scarcely
estimated.
Il have no patience with reform
ers who cry that American woman
hood is on the decline. ! think every
true woman refutes such statements.
The college girl Is being trained
today 10 regard her home as the ulti-
mate goal IN life. and 1t is taught
her that her duty first lies therein.
"A few year ago young women
were encouraged TO crowd in all the
activities possibly outside OF their
homes. 1t was inferred that the more
time a woman devoted to club and

Children VIII Profit.
Now colleges and schools teach
that home and maternal duties must
have their full measures OF devotion
first and then the public affairs may
be served with what energy and time
remain.
"As for the happer. I think that
her children will profit by her exper-
fence. Il win be a bitter one, in the
long'run, and she will be anxious TO
spare her own from a like ordeal.
This applies. Of course, TO the ex-
treme type, the real fiapper."
Mrs. Flint agrees that girls OF to-
day approach marriage and mother
hood with greater intelligence and
efficiency than did their mothers or
grandmothers.

welfare workers are constantly
spreading cannot but bear fruit II
