Railroads Make Life Easier
C30r Women On Jhe 3Qrn1

Think minute of what the railroads have done for the
women of this country-particuarly the women living
on the farms and in the small towns.
Before the day of railroads. these women led rather
drab and monotonous lives; with small knowledge Of
and interest ill., world affairs and little time for leisure
and cultural growth With the things which railroads
have brought to them--modern housekeeping helps;
home comforts and entertainment; congenial society
and direct connection with what's going on in the
world, through newspapers and magazines rural free
mail delivery and the Parcel Postthese farm and viii
lage have little cause to be envious of their Sis
tiers of the cities.
With these pertinent facts before them, and in view
of the larger public influence exercised by women
let these women join in with the rightthnking in
in the matter of the legislation now being proposed to
further restrict and hamper the railroadsand thereby
snow their appreciation of what the railroads doing
for them

who was censured by prominent Jews
for his criticism of conditions in Pales-

ism, last night won a victory before the
American Jewish Congress when his
resolution calling upon Great Britain to
remedy the conditions of all Jews under
its jurisdiction was adopted.
The resolution demanded an end to
the delay in a projected loan to develop
Palestine, and also asked the Arabs to
meet the Jews in Palestine in a frater-
nal spirit. Although 1t did not embody
all the recommendations made by the
Jewish leader, still il looked toward the
fulhllment of some of the hopes for
which he has worked for years.
The resolution was adopted only after
a. bitter debate which lasted until after
midnight.
One of the sections adopted predicted
that large sums of money would be
poured into Palestine by the Jews, both
on philanthropic basis and by the way
of organized social and economic enter
prises, as soon as it became clear that

There are two facts that stand out

first is that we have not caught the

second is that the writings produced

Mrs. Stewart has been invited to
submit herself to further tests and
appears anxious to do so. The me-

CREDIT WHERE 1T is DUE

If the average Belington woman
was without sense of the value Of
money the men folks would have a
good deal less in bank than they can
now boast. It is only fair to give
the housewives of this country the
credit that is due them, and it is GER
tainly due them to say that the aver
age dollar lying in the bank and draw
ing interest is there because some
housewife refused to agree with her
husband that they We're able to spend
it for luxury The average man is
much swifter spender than the av-
erage woman, and he would buy, very
often beyond his ability to pay were
it not for the fact that woman gen
orally breads debt.
Go into any store in town and not
with what care the woman who hap
pens to be purchasing something is
using in selecting it Notice how an
xious she is to get full value for her
money Do this not once but dozen
times and you'll soon conclude that
when it comes to driving a gargain'
, and actally saving money we have to
take off our hats to the women. The
man of the family usally thinks ne
knows what he wants beforehand and
unless the price is away out OF rea-
| son he takes the article without sugg-
! ton and without regard to its quality
We dot believe there ever was 9
word Of truth in the old statement
that 1.-TWO can live as cheaply as one
But we're seen enough of the care
used by woman shoppers to warrant
the belief that when it comes to saw
ing money the fair sex make the men
