LNe Gunner.
Emily, aged ten, told this de-
lightful joke at the dinner table
in the kitchen of our farm
house. Her sister and brother
joined in the laughter, but Ted
and I did not smile. Ted put
down his fork, as if the stew he
had cooked for us had suddenly
become distasteful. He sat and
stared at the blue-checked apron
covering his lap. Then he got
up, took off the apron and
threw it violently into the far
thest croner of the big kitchen.
The children watched with in

What's the matter with

worry about other people,

three years I have had a job,

is, seq I, as smart a stunt as any

pull. And particularly timely

Mr. Block has made personal survey of these States

lima, provides for the establish
ment of the James Madison Me-
mortal Commission Ito formu-
late plans for the construction
of a permanent memorial to the
memory of James Madison
FIVE FOUNDERS
It was only last year that the
Congress set up a Jefferson Me-
mortal Commission to honor the
memory of the author of the
Declaration of independence
with a suitable memorial in the
Federal City.
1t is fitting that in the follow
ing year a similar commission
should be proposed to do as
much for Madison, his lifelong
and devoted friend.
"There was probably no other
man." John Fiske tells us in his
revealing essay on Madison,
the Constructive Statesman,
"fOr whom Jefferson felt such
profound respect as Madison
and the feeling was reciprOcated:
There were many points OF
resemblance between the two,
such as the sweetness and pur-
ity of nature, the benevOlence,
the liberality of mind, the tire
less industry, the intense thirst
for knowledge, but nothing
could have been more striking
than the contrast in outward
appearance of the two men,"
Few will dispute the verdict
of history that the five Found
ers of the American Union in
chronological order were:
George Washington, j a m es
Madison, Alexander Hamilton,
Thomas jefferson, John Mar
shall.
One of their eulogists thus
evaluates their respective con-
tributions toward the formation
of the Union:

Machine invaded the home and
began turning Women's jobs into

any crystal gazer to foresee

those same machines which

again ask-WILL HE?
It's pretty plain that the old
fashioned Status Quo has been
smashed for good. Nobody
knows what Tomorrow is going
to be, but it's a safe bet that it
will have no earthly resem-
blance to Yesterday. Which
means that Husbands and Wives
will be living in an entirely diff
ferent world, doing entirely diff
ferent jobs.
PLAIN FACTS
BUT WILL MEN EVER BE
CONTENT TO DO THE JOBS
WHICH WOMEN HAVE AL
WAYS DONE?
It has always been assumed
that women did those jobs be-
cause they were "women's jobs"
but, Of course, that isn't so.
There's actually no more rea-
son for a woman to peel pota-
toes than for a man. Nor is it
necessarily any more "humiliat-
ing" for man to bake beans,
count laundry, scrub linoleum
or ride herd on little Willie
than it is for woman.
All women aren't born house
keepers" any more than all
men are born plumbers. car
penters, lawyers or actors. Wom-
ans intelligence and woman's
talent is as diversified as mans
intelligence and talent. And the
world is apt to lost quite as
much by keeping mama in the
kitchen as by keeping papa
there.
These are plain facts, but
custom has so sanctioned other
attitudes, ideas and practices
that most men will Indignantly
deny such statements. Yet the
truth persists and, like murder,

WILL MEN THEN BE WILL

is probable that the Federal
Constitution would not have
been adopted. The fact that the
experiment of the new. govern
ment could be tried under his
guidance made quite enough
votes for it to turn the scales
in its favor. His weight of au.
thOrity was also needed to Sc.
cure the adoption of Hamilton's
measures and to prevent the
half-fOrmed nation being drawn
into the vortex of the European
war.
"AS for Madison, he was the
constructive thinker who played
the foremost part among the
men who made the Constitution,
besides contributing powerfully
with tongue and pen to the ar
gumentS which secured its rati-
ficatiOn.

dence, to show the dOubterS and
ScOfferS on the one hand that
the new Government was really
a government of the people, by
the people and for the people,
and on the other hand that
such a government can be as
orderly and conservative as any
Other-thiS was the noble work
of Jefferson, and it was in his
presidency that the sentiment of
loyalty to the Union may be said
to have taken root in the hearts
of the people.
Zone thing more was needed,
and that was a large, coherent
body of judicial decisions eS-
tablishing the scope and purport
of the Constitution, so as to
give adequate power to the
national Government while still
protecting State rights.
ut was that prince of jurists,
John Marshall, who as Chief
Justice of the United States
for one third of century,
thus finished the glorious work.
"Of these five great men the
names of Madison and Marshall
are much less often upon peo-
pies lips than the others"
END NEGLECT
Yet there has been a most
impressive statue in bronze of
John Marshall, by the great
sculptor, the late w. w. Story,
guarding the western entrance
to the United States Capitol.
There are memorials of Wash
ington and Hamilton and pro-
vision for a jefferson memorial
has already been made by Con-
gress.
1t was past time that the
Government at Washington set
up a memorial in the Federal
city to James Madison, who died
100 years ago the 18th of next
June.

the FILA activities, but believe a

Representative Glare E. Hot-
man (R.) of Michigan, recently
brought to light Whdt he con-
tends is an unusual situation
eristing in the present Admin"
istrGtion.
In a. House discussion he
told of receiving a letter from
a Michigan farmer who had a
1898 home-loan mortgage to
meet.
The mans crop had been
poor and he was unable to
make the money without an
additional horse. So he went
to the FERA and got a horse
which was balky and wouldn't
work. That didn't help him
much so he wrote to Hoffman.
In his letter he told that
when he received his so-called
Government benefit" balky
horse given him by a Govern
ment official-he was forced to
sign certain papers.
He said:
II must agree not to say any
thing at any time against the
AAA."
Hoffman said:
"Such a course will defeat
itself as is evident from the
question which this poor but
honest farmer asks in the very
next line of his letter where
he says, is this still q free
country or a fairly well-de-
velOped dictatorship"
Again referring to such tao
tics, Hoffman asked:
"COuld anything be more UNI
sportsmanlike. more cOwardly,
more dishonest than this?"
