Does Woman Want to BE
BOSSed?
Does the modern woman need
and long to be beaten? Is she
secretly pining for a caveman
who will drag her around his
tent by the hair and then
order her to get up and go
fetch his boots?
Is she bored to tears with the
gentle lassitude Of the modern
man who permits her to back
seat drive" him through life
to select his friends and his
cravats, to keep his religion,
his culture and his money in
her name, and to razz him
when he leaves the hall light
burning?
Do you know, I almost be-
lieve that she does-and is!
There is a primitive admira-
ton down in every woman's
heart for a MASTERFUL man
"a man who can make her be-
have! Or make her suffer! She
may hate the brute who bullies
her. but she despises the molly
coddle who permits her to
bully HIM.
What the moderen man needs
is more of the "You're-MY-
WOMAN and don't -you-forget-
irt!" attitude; the II have
spoken-and!that t's-sufficient" at
tidue. But he has become too
lazy, too disinterested. too ten
der-hearted and too indifferent
to assert his own position and
boss his own wife.
His attitude is that Of "Any-
thing-to keep-the-Little- Woman
quiet!" And the Little Woman
has got the halter around his
neck and the binders on his
eyes, and is driving him at her
own sweet will. But it doesn't
give. her any kick!
The kind of man that every
normal woman adores Is the
one who orders her about in
one breath. and tells her she's
a darling in the next. Who

LISTEN WORLD!

"You make me SICK" says she
always telling people what to
do. Do you practise what you
preach?"
No, lady, don't. But I'd
like to. For you must admit
that I preach some pretty swell
stuff.
But you mustn't gather from
that confession that / do not
mean what I write. You'll
never guess how fiercely I mean
it, or how bitterly / wish
could be as good as I talk. And
perhaps that is why these words
seem sometimes strangely alive
to those who read them. They
ARE alive-alivs with my own
deep longing for the beauty
can paint but cannot live.
Indeed, I doubt If l could
write as convincingly of honor
and TOLERANCE and courage and
self-control If I did or could
live them. For no one can
reverence truth like a liar-or
admire courage as paSSionately
as a coward-or desire toler-
ance as greatly as one who is
beset by petty malice. A really
wise man can never know the
bitter penalties Of being stupid.
And it's only the man who has
nearly died of thirst on a desert
who fully appreciates the won
der of water.
I don't practice what
preach. I can't. I haven't the
makings." But, oh, how I wish
I had. And I suspect that ap-
plies to most Of us. We all
want to be better than we are.
We all preach what we cannot
practice. But that doesn't
imply that we should stop
preaching.
1t isn't hypocrisy to advocate
virtues you, in your weakness,
have never attained. Tt Is, I
suspect. one Of the most valu-
able things we can do. For,
even if we can't live nobility, we
can dream about it and desire
it and campaign for 1t. And
there is real power in dreams
and desires. Our world was
built on them.
We'd still be forrnleSS gobs Of
protoplasm in primeval ooZe If
life, the creator, hadn't planted
desire in that ooze-deSire for
life more abundant. Because

The evolution of species is
one of the most fascinating OF
the studies devised by man, be-
cause of the infinite richness
and variety of its content.
The human body. when it is
properly understood. is seen to
be a vast storehouse of physio-
logical survivals. The biologist,
who knows all forms of life, can
point unerringly to innumerable
features in the human body OF
today which have been in
herited from primitive an
cestors, from lower and vastly
simpler forms of life.
According to approved scien-
tific theory, the earliest living
things were tiny little bodies, or
cro-organisms of a bacterial
nature, let us say. The bacteria
were followed by the protozoa,
of which the amoeba may be
taken as a type. Jelly-like crea.
lures came along, sea anemones;
and then came creatures with
superficial induration, such as
crabs, rnolluscs, insects, spiders.
At last, in Cambrian time,
came the highly developed crea-
lures. of the crab kind, known
as trilobites.
Everything must have started
from some soft, glutinous
worm-like creature slipping
about through the primal ooze.
Locked up in these creatures
were the germs of a thousand
variations; the whole of the
physiology, so to speak, Of all
living species as we find them
on the, earth today and Of
countless other species which
have become extinct.
Certain forms remained DOM
inant; they persisted without

Be Kind
It is a cruel sort Of sport to
make fun of the small-town
person who comes to work IN
your department.
It is hard enough to become
accustomed to a new environ.
ment and to learn the manner
Of work in a new place.
Then there is the friendless
feeling of homesickness to con-
tend with.
IF you have never been home
sick you can't appreciate what
it means.
In the small place back
home all were well-known faces,
but in the city it is bewilder-
ing to confront only strangers.
There is the forlorn bleak
ness Of going to sleep in q
strange room.

BY MARTIN CoDET.

President Hoover has had various
angles OF the radio situation brought to
his personal attention In recent weeks
BY different parties interested in one
phase or another of radio control.
It Is not considered likely, however,
that he viii take any direct hand in the
tangled problems involved In governing
radio, except to act upon appointments
to the Federal Radio Commission some
time before February 49, Terms Of all
the present commissioners expire on
that date.
All sorts Of runfors and corjectures
nave arisen about the appointments
This week round robin was reported
IN circulation among members Of the
Senate to urge the President to reap
point Chairman Ira E. Robinson of the
radio board. While It Is generally be-
ueved that all the present commits
stoners will be reappointed, rl1mor has
IT that Judge Robinson may retire.
Litigation Explains Delay.
No hint whatever OF any basis for
such rumor is given out at the White
House, nor can it be traced to any ON
