THE GOOD WOMAN
: By DR.. Frank Crane

A little classic is the story that rms nc
follows 'l"' runs as
Mrs. Brown and Mrs Smith were con-
verslng and the name of Mrs. Robinson
was mentioned, whereupon the following
conversation ensued:
Mrs. Brown-I think Mrs, Robinson t. .
good woman. N 10 I"
Mrs Smith-Yes, I don't like her either
why is it that the average woman OH
Jects to being called good? Is goodness a
dlsgrace? Or, worse than a disgrace, is
1t out of style? 40
shouldn't she want to be good?
Alfred Edge tells of a smartly dressed
laoyN VINO visited a wounded soldier in the
hosptal and felt very much complimented
when he said to her: ''You are a good
woman, even if you don't look it,
Have we so mismanaged and manhandled
the morallt1es that they have become dis
reputable?
1 think the solution is one that points ia
very fundamental error in our thinking
we nave been trained for generations to
confound goodness with narrowness
We have pigeonholed God We have
card>fndexed moralities.
/ asked man who was the best person
he ever knew. He replied that it was
Deacon Jones and gave as his reason that
the Deacon never sWore, or drank, or used
tobacco, or played cards, or broke the
Sabbath, and so on.
In other words, Deacon Jones goodness
was measured by the things he did not do.
BY that standard a fence post or a rock
by the side of the road ought to take the
first prize in morality
Because we have an entirely negative
notion of goodness, we make it drab color
less, and distasteful.
But, as a matter Of fact while restric-
tions and self-denial are necessary elements
IN the development Of ones personality,
they are not ends in themselves, but are
simply means to an end. They are not
goodness; they are the rocky road to good
ness
Real goodness is a positive thing. 1t is
a force. It is militant.
Better than all that, it Is full Of adven-
ture and high living.
For at the bottom it IS courage, just as
all vice is essential cowardice.
If women only knew it, the secret of their
power is their goodness. That is, their
power over men. Men may be attracted by
looseness of speech, appearance, and man
ner; but it is only their baser natures that
are attracted. And if a woman is desr-
Ous of real power over a man, real ability
to mould him, to influence him, and above
all, to keep him. she should bear in mind
that men give obedience and queenship to
women only as they believe they are good
Goodness is not cold. 1t is warm, SYM
pathetic, and forgiving.
1t is badness that at heart is cruel.
GA woman without religion wrote
George Meredith, sis a weed upon the
waters, or she is hard as nails"
SO while goodness is not thing to be
boosted of, nor paraded, it is most es-
sential thing for woman To Be. Always
the eternal feminine leads us on. But the
leadership and supremacy of the sex for
ever abides in it's clearer vision and appre-
citation of goodness.

Reduction Of heat from seventy-two de-

at the same time makes for immunity from

Moreover, there is a deal of waste in heat

'*The special mission of the rural school

One Of the most thrilling, incidents In the
life of Captain Peter Fitzurso was his duel
with swordfish. The captain was one time
the best fencer in the woodland even now,
though three fingers of the right hand are
not in the best shape owing to an old injury
there are not five men living who dare face
him rapier in hand. 1t was Captain Fitz-
urse who invented that terrible thrust with
which M. Georges Clemenceau laid low so
many OF his political adversaries. The story
abridged from the account in his autobiogra-
ply (Which lies before us as we write) will
be published exclusively in this column.
