HABIT IS
 SEEN IN FAIR SEX
Some BaitYe t Is the College
 Influence

New York. Feb. : R1Philip Guedalla. English writer. has dis covered that in America .the ordi- nary man Is not the ordinary man at all-but the ordinary woman."
 The lecturers audiences are large- ly women, Guedalla found in his American travels. and he suggests in his newly published "Conquista- dor" that perhaps one factor in ex- planation of this is "the wide diff fusion of university education in the United States" arousing a thirst for knowledge not easily appeased.
 He observed that 'the men pro- ceed into their various callings and college may have stirred is rapidly submerged in the new ardours of their necessary occupations"
 "But the college women?" he continues. Their fate is very differ ent. For years or so-longer, per- haps-they live at home unmarried. During this interval a lecture may reasonably appeal as pleasant means of passing time away. There is still vague desire to learn: the lecture may lead somewhere new or may continue something half-learnt in college. That feeling, I think, &C., counts for the presence of ones younger hearers.
 'Then comes marriage; and the home performs for women the same absorbing functions as a mans pro- fession. That is why men and young married women are so largely ab- sent from the lecture hall. But fam lilies, as time goes on, grow up: the home ceases to be an all-absorbing occupation: and the woman is left with leisure on her hands. That is the second stage at which the an- nouncement of lecture draws her. It seems to beckon with a faint memory of lessons half-learnt, 10, l5 or 20 years before. So she goes, unlike her husband, to the lecture. a willing victim of the lecture-habit."
 Aimee McPherson, Los Angeles evangelist, and Big Bilr' Thomp- son. mayor of Chicago. are among l the personages from whom Guedalla gathered his conception Of America, as also are less prominent figures such as a. justice Of the peace who resorted to poetry to thank the city | commissioners for an increase in salary and an advertising man who l announced a "Tai Mahal" mauSO- | leum. l

 Takes Complete Charge
 Taking charge of tfe conven- tion as if he had been born to the job, Robinson stood up un. der the trying grind of forty-four ballots during days and nights. The record he made there had no small part in his selection three years later as the Democratic leader in the Senate when Oscar w. Underwood laid down the reins.
 But it was not alone the ability shown at San Francisco that earned Robinson that job. He had gone a. long way from the time of his promotion from the House; he had made q good legis- lativa record had been active in ! some of the moro important fights in the Senate and had won the unqualified endorsement of Wood row Wilson, who, near the end his life, declared Robinson to be the real moral and intellectual leader of the Democrats in the Senate.
