 VISITING IN CITY
U. s. Progresses Commercially But Not ArtistRally, He Says

Henri M. Rossant. French en- glneer who Is visiting American plants in the interests of Partisan in- dustries, called at the Stanley Works, Landers. Frary & Clark's and at the office of~ City Engineer Philip A. Marian today.
 MT. Rossant spoke interestingly of his impressions of American cities with their huge buildings and manu- featuring plants, but expressed a be- lief that the country has progressed commercially but not artistically.
 He prefers American politics to those of his native country, contrast ing the smooth operation of elections with but two major parties and of the government once the officials have been chosen. with that of France where there are dozens of parties and where he has seen cabi- nets change as often as twice a day.
 The French people are greatly in- terested in the presidential election and are following the campaign closely, he reports. In his opinion France regards the republican party with greater favor than it does the democrats, feeling that the G. o. P. has a more liberal policy and better of international af- fairs.

The old belief that women should look after the girls and men the boys is all wrong. It is only where both parents give the best that is in them. where there is an overlapping of effort that things work out. The racial progress marches on tho feet of healthy chill dren It is your job to work shoul- der to shoulder with your husbands to see that the children are taken care of.
 If you try to do the work of the community without the help ot the men it will fail. If men try to solve civic problems without the help of women they will fail It is your job to keep in contact with your child's school teacher. It is as much your job to see th3t the men spend the necessary money for good schools and playgrounds as it is t9 see that you get the price of . new coat.
 Boys and girls today are clean, fine and wholesome. If they are not it is the fault of the parent. The father and mother are lacking in leadership.
 Women are the engineers in the art of developing the resources of human nature in motherhood and fatherhood for the children of the nation.
 Your job is to the children of the community. Give yourself and your money will follow. You don't get away from the individual responsi- bility of parent by putting the job on to the shoulders of q Rotary club. If you try it you lose out.
