WOMEN AND CAREERS

From one of the city pupits comes the warning
that the woman who scorns the role of homemaker
and motherhood for a career is taking backward
step.
There will be disagreement the role Of
motherhood for the woman who can qualify as a
good mother who has traits of character and sweet
of SOUL mental and physical legacy for her
child.
There some women, just there many
men, who should be prevented from bringing into
the world children who would inherit physical weak
ness and twisted minds, to become criminal and out
cast.
Heredity plays a great part in life. The history
of criminal families suggests danger. The investi
cations of sciene prove facts rather conclu-
sively.
But most women will find in these days Of
change no real reason for choosing between careers
and home making.
Invention and labor-saving machinery are max.
ing the matter of housekeeping light task.
The work which required eighteen hours day
of hard work the part of grandmother be
done today in two hours by of vacuum
sweepers, ireless cookers and similar devices
There are women who find no real entertainment
satisfaction in bridge parties, moving pictures
plain gossip. There hundreds and thousands
who prefer to be useful There more who find
time heavy on their hands.
Every faker who advertises a quick fortune by
use of spare hours gets response from women in
greet numbers.
The modern woman will probably combine home
making and a career. She will not be content to
marry a whose earning capacity and ability is
less than her own. She will not be content to
be idle.
The world is changing. There will always be
homes. There will be mothers. There will be
careers for women.
The chances that there will be better
homes, better mothers and greater careers, all for

OUR SUPERIORITY
: By Mrs. Walter Ferguson =

In Carteret, New Jersey, mob of white people
burned down church drove one hundred Negroes
from their homes This the result of the previous
murder of white man by black The fact that a
part of this mob masks does add the appeal
of this story.
Such actions an indictment against the white
race and add much to the ever growing racial prob.
lem with which the country is confronted.
We always think and speak of ourselves as a SUI
perior people, but how do prove that superiority?
DO set colored brother that example Of ineness
of character which should be result Of our higher
intelligence?
We are thousand times more fortunate in every
way than the black people who make up a part of our
population. We have more and better opportunities
for education; we have generally mental ability
have been born into pleasing worldly stations
justice functions for the Negro. In many com
munties no black people allowed.
Negro criminals should be dealt with summarily
but he who puts on mask to work mob rule upon his
more unfortunate brother is unworthy the name
American.
We have failed terribly in our duty toward a race
for whose coming to this country own race is re-
sponsible.
Being superiors should mean something else than
mere dominance 1t involves tremendous duty. Driv
ing hundred Negroes from their homes in one city,
only means that they will become charges upon the
people of another community We cannot get rid of
our municipal troubles in any such fashion
Americas Negro problem is your problem and
mine and it will be satisfactorily solved until
each, personally, do small part toward adjust
ing it,
Nor should call ourselves superior until we
have learned enough of Justice and practced enough
of Christian principles to play fair with black folks
do with white.

most part the FIVE. or six members
Of one family group.
The first two-thirds of the picture
is devoted to picturing the every
day life Of this native family from
the time they start building a hut
until they finish the days work.
"Moana" abounds in startling
sights Of rare adventure. especially
when a giant turtle is caught by the
bare arms Of the native swimmers.
The last part Of the movie shows
the terribly painful custom by which
the natives have to prove that the
young men of the tribe have the
right to be called men. During this
weird ceremony the entire tribe Of
natives is used.
"Moana" is educational as well as
being delightful entertainment. One
Of the native girls wears little or
no clothing, but as these women go
in for less clothes than a Follies
chorus girl, I take IL they can be
forgiven because it is the costume
of the island.
