a beautiful section of Maryland, which

to pay him! Which, Of course,
he never paid back.
Borrowing money from us
that's another one of the
things those modern men do
without the slightest compunc-
ton. Can you imagine your
father or mine, taking money
from a woman, or letting a
woman pay for his lunch or
theater tickets? Yet these fel-
lows do. The best they ever do
is to agree to go Dutch; and
lots of times they won't even
do that, but expect the girl to
pay for everything!
Getting free gas-that's
another one of their racketS.
most Of them have cars, but
will they use them? Not if
they can get the girl to use
hers.
st remember mother telling
what a thrill it used to be for
a girl to be taken to a party;
but now it's the girl who does
the taking! Or she goes alone,
and meets her young man when
and if he happens to drop in.
"Well, though I hate to ad-
nit it, the girls themselves are
responsible for most of it!
They start off all right, with
a desire to be real fellows;
then they discover, as I did,
that men have become so
spoiled that you actually have
to buy their companionship, or
go without.
Casually the girl, if she has
a spark of pride, rebels when
she makes this discovery. But
you know how it is, Elsie. A
working girls life, unless she. is
living with her folks or old
friends, is so terribly lonely.
Sitting alone, night after night,
you get so you'll do almost
anything just to hear a human
voice. So you Organize a
little party Then the racket
starts. But wouldn't you think
men would be too proud to get
that Way?"
So there you have it-one
of the commonest problems in
this topsy-turvy age. And
what's the answer?
Did, or didn't, we modern
women ask for this when we
clamored for Equal Rights and
got 'em? We wanted to be
"treated like reg'lar fellows"
didn't we? But don't "reg'lar
fellows" borrow from each
other; impose on each other?
And when did you or anyone
ever hear of one man being
chivalrouS" to another man?
Then why should a man "be
chivalrous" to a woman who
loudly protests she's "as good
as a man"-and proves it by
competing and often beating
him in business life?
Yet grating on the girl
friends gas; sponging on her
script does seem a bit raw,
doesn't it?
But then, what? YOU tell.

Beer Means Work
For Job1ess Men

1t moved on Wednesday
when President Roosevelt
signed the beer bill which re-
opens the breweries after 13
years Of an ignoble expert
ment.
This means that within a
few days Americans may
have pure beer without a vio-
lation of the law.
It means more: it means
jobless men by the hundreds
of thousands will be put back
to work on wages they will
spend with the merchant
who, in consequence, will
have to increase his orders at
the factory, which, as a re-
suit, will have to put more
men to work.
It means industries af-
fected by brewing will revive
to meet the demand for
bottles, corks, barrels, kegs
and that means work for job
less men.
1t means more: that great
sums of money will be let
loose in the building and re-
conditioning of breweries;
and that will put masons,
carpenters to work. In the
city Of New York, alone, it is
said that two new breweries
costing $4,0O0,O0O will be
built.
And it means more: it
means that hundreds of mil
lions in taxes will be turned
into the Treasury to Tighten
the burden of business en-
terprise.
Yes, it will mean some
thing more-a boon for the
farmer whose grain will be
required.

Other Action Is
To Be Taken

The N. Y. Herald Trib-
une, certainly not an Ad-
ministration organ, says all
that need be said editorially
when it says:
1.-THE notion that its SOL
diers' pay of 81 a day will
threaten the wage structure
is pure nonsense. Would it
do so if these men were en-
listed in the army, as many
have suggested they should
be, and set to the same
work under the supervision
of the Engineering Corps?
What difference can it make
if they retain their civilian
status?"
If this were all the Presi-
dent has in mind for labor
it would be different, but
it is not. Other action is to
be taken. And, best Of all,
and most important Of all,
the Administration is con-
sidering the assumption Of
leadership in bringing about
numerous changes in our
industrial system as they re-
late to labor-and many of
these are asked by labor.
But time will be required
for these more basic
changes, and in the mean
time the Government must
do the best it can with the
means at hand. And labor
must cooperate - apprecia-
tive Of the fact that for the
first time since the depres-
sion came the Government
is assuming it's responsible
ity and is moving.
