Cruel Woman

Comment is made that most of
the punishment suggestions were by
women. and that the most fiendish
forms were unearthed by the frail
sex.
1t probably only means that more
women competed than men, women
having the contest bug TO much
greater proportion than males, or
it may only mean that women, hav-
ing suffered most from violation of
the prohibition law, feel the need
for revenge more. Mothers of sons,
and all that.

Nervous prostration and melan-
cholia over her illness were adj
vanced as cause of the suicide or
accident. Flaming youth" cannot
be cited as cause, for college
authorities remarked on the girls
quietness and absorption in her
studies. Other analysts will seize
upon too much study as a cause and
wonder why girls go to college, any

more than physicians for the

Human Depressions

Humans in the main are apt to
get too discouraged at the prospect
of the oncoming years at times. At
20 one regards, 80 as hopelessly old,
at 30 one is inclined sometimes to
laugh at 20's idea and sometimes to
believe it's viewpoint is right. AS
one grows older it is increasingly
difficult to believe that the best
years are not gone or that there is
anything ahead.
The spectacle of 80-year-olds dar-
ing to cast off the old and be on
with the new is good for all of us.
