n Recently in letter to a metropolitan newspaper,
married woman has given some very good reasons why

indicates how fte is to establish any rule against Il
of such women. To quote her in part
There are many reasons why woman who has
husband must work. Perhaps she has an aged
father mother who have no one but her to de-
pend upon for their living, or perhaps it IS the
rs. husband who has both of these dependents.
! There is the who has family of four or
It five children and whose husband only earns
small salary. Naturally she is going to 90 her
utmost to supply those things that lacking.
There is the wife whose husband only has work
during the warmer months, and when work is slack
in the colder months mon she is naturally gong TO
who has an invalid husband will have to do some
thing to help out, though the husband may be
able to work at intervals. | am speaking OF my
self in that instance. My husband is disabled
veteran, and loses from two to three months every
year, and is in bed with pneumonia every winter
lf My working is the only thing that prevents him
from getting any worse, because he does not have
~. to worry.
The idea that working causes more
divorces is not true. 1t is only reasonable that
married people going to enjoy each others
& company better if they have both been away from
home all day-more than if the wife stays home
and wishes to go out in the evening when the
husband is tired.
Some time ago l noticed something about the
council investigating the civil service and trying
to eliminate married women from the payroll. That
would be a terrible calamity. If the civil service
does not want to employ married women, why
allow them to take the civil service examinations?
The same would apply to the teachers here. AL
though they are not under civil service, they are
on the city payroll, and their salaries come out
of the taxes The only way would be not to hire

THE SOUVENIR HABIT

Europeans have Often marvelei

extent of the habit at that. The

place some time ago. The public
came Will axes, hatcnets, chisels,

This gruesOme work has nothing
whatever to do with that form OF
collecting which pertains to OBJ
jects of beauty or sentimental in

thing else. Certainly the Amer
leans as a people are not overly
given to morbid inclinations. The
chances are that, something quite
simple is at the bottom of it. 1t
might, for instance, be the old
story of something for nothing, a
sort of thrifty instinct. the vague
notion that some day this nail OF

You look SO foolish, SO out of

don't belong here at this time of

What brings you? Hunting your

enough to fly straight to the guns if

are above New York and if you're
worrying about your mate New York
will laugh at you. Go find another.
The woods is full of them. Can you
see Broadway from where you are
If you can you'll know what I mean.
And tell US, Wild Goose, how do
we look to you? What, only insects

They're the tallest in the world. And

the longest street in America. The
richest men in the world are here.
The biggest hotels and the largest
railroad stations and the most taxi
cabs and the wealthiest banks and
the biggest ocean vessels.
Can't you see all of that, Wild
Goose?
No, you hurry on out of the murk
and the dirt hanging over US.
You see at the end of the longest
street in the world fields and valleys
more beautiful than our parks, hills
higher than our Woolworth tower.
You see places where men can look
above and see the sky without hav-
ing it distorted out of proportion by
overtowering buildings, where men
can see themselves in their own
stature, where poor men are happier
than our richest men.
Fly on, silly goose, and find your
mate. ~

Pretty soon the butterfly reached
the lovely garden, where roses and
all sorts of flowers were growing.
And right in the center was small
pool with tiny yellow water lilies
spreading over the top. There were
some large white lilies, too, with
pink centers.
Between the lilies and their flat
green leaves, you could see patches
of clear water, with tiny red streaks
shooting back and forth.
I The red streaks were goldfish

Wouldn't you think they would

They were, all but one. And that's

Two Spot lighted on the ground at

Real Test of Patriotism

Why is patriotism the most COM
manding emotion? Because it is the
only one which combines selfishness
and unselfishness.
To demand things "for my coun-
try" gives the heart great and
noble surge. And when those things
are exactly what we want for our
selves the altruistic urge finds no
impediment.
When the political crook says to
one of US. vote for me and ! will
get you a job or slip your firm a
concession" we may yield. but we
feel shame-faced about it.
When he offers the same thing to
US collectively, for community
state or national interest, we re-
spond with pride and the thrill OF
having done something noble.
But here is the real test. When
the candidate proposes something
that will help the community, but
will hurt your own business, do you
respond with equal enthusiasm? II
! SO; you are true patriot.

Gcrmany's Troubles An Object
Lesson

Germany is Threatened with
third election within one year. The
present government can scarcely
survive until May 4, anniversary of
the first election.
And, it is not the fault of the peo-
Pile. They have voted right three
times, and will doubtless do SO
again.
But it does no good, under a sys-
tenn of election which does not pro-
duce a government in accordance
with the peoples vote-or, for that
matter, coherently in accordance
with anything.
American idealists have put for
ward many attractive theoretical ar
guments for the bloc system and pro-
portional representation. Germany's
tribulations are an object lesson on
] how they work in practice.
