ON THIS
OCCASION
A Few Observations ON Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

Ely people are gain talking
q government building to house
the several governmental &C
tivities in this vicinity and the
post Office. If Ely needs such
q building, now Is the time TO
ask for It. Nearly every re-
quest for a government build
ing in the country has been
granted and the Public Build
ing program enlarged 10 meet
the requests. Ely should have
agitated a government building
long ago. This town was on
the list at one time but some
thing interviewed TO knock US
out.
Had we had office facilities
for the Superior National
Forest headquarters in a gov
eminent building, there is no
doubt but what the head
quarters would have remained
here. With the acquisition of
the lands 10 the forest shown
in another place in this paper,
added necessity for head
quarters In this city adjacent to
the scene of operations becomes
apparent. The prospective en-
larged program for the CCC
and MIRA 10 follow the ap-
preparations to the forest to
care for relief on the ranges
would also indicate that a
building could be put TO good
uses.

that she should wish to be counted

THERE are two distinct types o.
Il women in the United States
today. the home woman and the
business woman. and the latter is By
far the more intelligent and pro-
Rressive. simply because her OPP
portunities for se,f-development are
more numcHGUs.
To b. frank. I am pessimistic
about the pos bilitv Of any real
social reforms coming from the
American home. Here is my reason:
The majority OF home women are
carbon copies % their husbands.

and beliefs 81 their men. which
would BE- a good thing II all hus-
bands were gentlemen OF in
teliireuce and vide social vision.
But when the opposite is true. you
can see what the effect would be.
For Charles saws and John

face most w-felv remarks.
Rather pathetic is the position
OF the home woman. occupied with
house and children She dislikes
to disagree with her husband in
any important particular, becauS-
in her heart she feels this 70 be a
kind OF dislOyalty. she IS. IN fact,
the victim OF that peculiar form
OF education which sets up the
theory that a good wife never
critics but always praises her hus-
band. that feminine love Is a glOri-
fed form Of fatrery-and which at
woman's influence is greater than
that OF mans
So deeply has this inconsistent
idea taken root within her il is
almost impossible TO destroy. For
the home woman actually believes
that wlfely admiration constitutes
