BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

hasn't got around to perfecting the
truly wonderful male-and l don't
think a woman would like living
with him if ever such a one APP
peared upon the earth.
The truth is, We don't want
anything really extraordinary in
the way of husbands. Just the
plain ordinary garden variety
suits better. For this reason, per-
haps, the busy wife often forgets
to spread the f1attery along with
the butter on her husbands toast.
And so, I am told repeatedly, we
lose our loves.
Maybe so. But if a man lives
long enough and manages to get
around a little, he will find out
one truth: It's the women who
tell you how wonderful you are
who play you for a sucker. Some
times one of the kind may even
be married to you, but she plays
you for a sucker just the same.
If you are a smart man, you will
listen once in a while to the wife
who intimates that you sometimes
behave like a sap. For she's prob
ably the one who really loves you
and will stick by you when the
cooling doves have cleaned out
your pockets and left you fiat.

I trust his experience will prove
a good example for other and less
noted American husbands. The
male, as you may have noticed,
has a tendency to the sort OF van
ity which marriage seems to aug
ment. 1t is this vanity which
often betrays him. Once he sue
cumbs to it. a husband may come
to believe that his wife underesti-
mates him, and that he must have
a lady-love to be truly appreci-
ated.
What happens then? In a good
many cases he comes sneaking
home after he has been taken for
a cleaning by the dame with
honey on her tongue. Wives, some
how. are not so good at compli-
ments. It's often a strain for
them to 60 on repeating the for
mula about how wonderful men
are.
In the first place, every honest
woman knows her husband isn't
wonderful. He may be lovable,
fine. high-minded, intelligent and
kind, even noble, but the Lord

THE Seventh district attained its majority May %, 1896, on the ami
Il versary date of its organization at the Downey Avenue church in
Irvngton. Mrs. Grace Julian Clark, founder of the district federation
and its first chairman, was president of the Irvington Womans Club and
sent out the call to the clubs of indianapolis to meet in delegate conven-
ZION. The IrVlngton Womans Club was hostess for the occasion.
The district federation, consisting of organizations and meeting an

is with shame.
Your reply to a young girl recent
ly said that her mother was jealous
of her suitors. A mothers love is
the only thing in this world that
has ever been compared to Gods
love-sacrificial. 1t is seldom that a
bad mother gives her child bad adj
vice. There is a wonderful Oppor-
tunity in this column to clean up
lax morals among young people to-
day. The way they are made to
think they are right and mother
and father wrong is %sickening.
UNSIGNED.
Answer: You misunderstood me
if you think I believe young people
to be invariably right, or that they
should be left to stumble through
life without kindly direction.
I am definitely set against the
autocratic type of parent who
conceives it to be his divine right
to impose his own rigid codes,
modes and patterns of behavior on
the child. I disagree with the
parent who insists upon strict
obedience to unreasonable COM
mandS, and dislike those who take
advantage of the child'S lack Of
physical strength to indict cruel
punishments.
In a revulsion Of feeling against
the old patriarchal set-up, many
modern parents have swung to
the opposite extreme. In their
eagerness to escape the errors Of
the old order, they insist upon
absolute liberty for their children.
In their lexicon, no child ever is
forced to do anything against his
will. This system has almost as
many disadvantages as the first.
Every one knows undisciplined
children who are pests and
nuisances. disliked by both their
elders and contemporaries because
they were left too much to their
own devices. Somewhere between
the two extremes the truth lies.
I have the utmost respect for the
parent who has made an art of
child guidance and who does not
20 into a tantrum when the young
behave in an inconvenient man
ner. He is one who takes the time
and trouble to explain to the child
the reasons for our social in
stitutions, the necessity for re-
speeding the rights of others, the
benefits of courteous behavior and
friendly cooperation.
The parent who has made a
friend and companion of his child,
who has won the confidence OF
the young by the justice OF his
judgments, who does not harp
and carp upon parental authority,
but helps the child to discover its
owns potentialities, is the only
parent who is worthy Of respect.
I have no confidence in the
sacrifcial brand of mother love
which is popularity supposed to be
of divine origin. 1 find it con-
ceals extremely selfish purposes
which are nothing short Of
emotional bondage for the child.
An overwhelming, devouring
mother love is the cause OF many
serious personality disorders in
later life. 1t is a sort of saccharine
tie which all enlightened people
heartily condemn.

is the mother who tries to bind

when she should be influencing
him to leave the family circle to

Nothing can be done to alter her
attitude which she has carried over

the wrong is the son who lacks
the vitality to break a tie which
has outlived its usefulness.

Jack Dublin Hat
Workers Average
50 a Week Wages
Can't Get More Because
AFL Officials Forbid
Struggle
By a Millinery Worker
Correspondent

NEW YORK.-To us, the workers
of the Jack Dublin millinery shop,
the collective agreement" of the
boss and union officials has been
more than huge jocks, because the
joke has been on the millinery
trimmers. The only thing collective
for us has been the 40 cents dues
collected weekly for the A. F. of L.
millinery union.
About three weeks ago we all de-
cided that the rates we are getting
for making hats, which not only
did not give the agreed $1.O6 an
hour, but didn't even average so
cents an hour, was not going to be
tolerated by us any longer. The
price committee, together with the
girls, worked out a list of prices
that would give the girl with aver
age rate of speed about 75c an hour.
This even though less than $106
an hour, still was met by the boss
with anger and refusal.
When we demanded 75c an hour
we took into consideration that we
worked part time, not full time.
Our work is seasonal and the aver
age of the "a girls in the shop is
about SO a week.
Our boss Immediately turned the
matter over to the millinery bosses
association. We turned the matter
over to the union. Then began one
of the most disgusting and hui
initiating experiences the girls had
ever witnessed.
Almost daily the shop committee
had to go to the association to hear
the negotiations between the union
officials and the bosses representa-
tiveS. This ham stringing went on
for three weeks during which time
the girls were not paid. They were,
however, given permission to bor-
row money on account from the Of
flee "up to a certain amount"
A committee of six went up to
see Miss Deutsch, an organizer of
the union, and intimated that we
were going to stop work unless our
prices were settled. She tried to
soft-soap them, but she soon found
that it didn't work. The next day
the prices were settled, but so mis-
erably low that they were nearer to
6 cents an hour than $1.06 an hour.
There is a mass resentment
against these misleading A. F. of l..
officials and strong desire to
struggle to better our conditions.
The incident is not closed, for we
intend to fight against these prices
and change them for fairer ones.
One thing we know, and that is
not to depend on the union officials,
but to fight with our strongest
weapon, strike even though we are
forbidden and inundated by the
union officials.

A.C.W. Delegates
To Convention
Are HandpiCked
Local ITO Executive
Board Does All the
Electing
By a Needle Trades Worker
Correspondent

BROOKLYN. N. Y.-Some time
in May, I believe, the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America of
the A. F. of L. is going to have a
national convention in Rochester,
N. Y. Do you want to know how
they democratically elect delegates?
Take my Local No. 176 as an ex-
ample.
In the first place we never got
official notice of the convention. 1t
got to US by the same route we
learned we had become part of the
A. F. of L.-by rumor. Then the
local executive board met and the
business agent proposed himself
and the local chairman. This was
followed by calling in their lack
eys tan activity meeting, it's called
to endorse them. Then they said
Maybe We'll call a meeting of the
rank and file and maybe we won't.
They didn't.
All this was done despite the fact
that the constitution of our union,
and a letter sent to all locals by
the joint board, called for demo-
cratic nominations and elections of
delegates.
The reason is quite obvious. The
local officials Brother Cimenatti
and Johnny Patti included are
afraid of the rapidly growing oppo-
sition in our local. When We issued
local rank and file bulletin, they
let loose a campaign of terror and
intimidation against all militant
elements. They threatened to fire
and expel them.
However, despite all this, the
workers are going ahead in their
fight for democratic rank and
file union, to insure better condi-
tions in the shop. Members of
Local 176, join the A. G. w. Rank
and File Committee at 116 Univer-
sity Place, New York City. Write
for your local paper, send it finan-
cial aid. Down with Hillman
bureaucracy!
