They've sent the argument on to
us to answer. Here's mine. After

How'd I train a girl? Both
ways. I'd train her for MAR
RIAGE-but not, as Dad proposes,
by letting her wait around and
embroider guest towels. I'd train
her for modern MARRIAGE by
teaching her modern BUSINESS.
Like Dad, I too believe that
marriage is the average woman'S
best chance of happiness and use
fulness-the job best suited to her
flesh and spirit.
But marriage in 1886 is a vastly
different affair than wedlock in
Dads youth. And a wife means
something today that wives never
meant before.
CUSTOMS CHANGE
Fifty years ago, even 80 years
ago, wives occupied special posi-
tionS, had special prerogatives,
special protection and privileges.
They were above criticism, be-
yond competition. They didn't
have to know much or do much.
The mere fact that they were the
home makers and mothers of the
race was sufficient to put them
in a class by themselves.
1t is no longer sufficient. Big
Business having taken the indus
trial crafts out of the home, home
making has become a casual af-
fair and mothering a part-time
profession. Wives no longer &C.
cupy special, almost sanctified
inches.
Wives are people today-public
c1tlzenS-and must qualify as
such. And the modern wife must
face constant competition from
and comparison with every other
woman worker. Particularly with
her husbands women associates
In the business world.
This does not mean. as the
beWildered bride usually suspects,
that every Stenog is a home
wrecker or every husband a
philanderer. 1t simply m S

were singularly Indifferent to
both Illustrations and razors.
Some of that convention dialogue
of 1882, as they fought over the
two-thirds rule, would raise Welts
on the more sensitive political
hides of today. Our foretathers
certainly could swing a wicked
word-punch.
Andrew Jackson, who never
asked or gave quarter in political
or military combat, schemed the
rule, along with Martin Van
Buren,, to sidetrack his bitter and
vengeful political enemy, John C.
Calhoun, and prevent Calhoun'S
denomination for the Vice Presi-
dency.
Gen. Romulus Saunders, Of
North Carolina, launched elo-
quent thunders for the proposal,
in which he mentioned everything
except the real reason for the
rule-the desire of the South to
achieve a balance-of-power solid
arity against the increasing power
of the North and Northwest.
He put it all on moral grounds.
A candidate with two-thirds of
the convention behind him would
go before the people with stronger
and more democratic sanctions.
The rule was voted and it licked
Calhoun, but in 1874 it also de-
feated Martin Van Buren,, its CO.
author. This was the first instance
in which the rule defeated can.
oidate who had majority of the
convention votes.
HISTORY is MADE
Looking in on Cleveland and
Philadelphia this year, noting the
noise, whoop-la and general dis
turbance of the peace engendered
by the rival circuses, it is hard to
see these convention deliberations
in proper historical perspective,
hard to realize that amid such
tumult the shuttle of history is
weaving quietly.
But one has only to take look
at the convention of 1874 to
understand that these distinctly
American tribal rites may chart
high destiny. America might not
be America today if the tWo-tlirdS
rule hadn't ditched Van Buren,.
Henry Clay was the Wing NOM
inee Both he and Van Buren,
were vehemently opposed to the
admission of Texas to the Union.
Clay, with other leading Southern
politicians, was against new States
which would not be under the
political domination of the South
and which would strengthen the
political power of the North. Van
Buren's defeat by the two-thirds
rule. although he had a majority
of the delegates, swung the presl-
dental nomination to James K.
Polk.
It was a savage campaign.
POLK, Dallas and Texas" was the
yell of the booted, bearded, torch
light mobs of the North. Polk
was scarcely in office before he
admitted Texas and. thereUpon,
began the Mexican War. The re-
suit was to give the United States
sway over not only Texas, but
California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona,
New Mexico and Southern Cali
fornia.
Again at Baltimore, in 1912, the
two-thirds rule defeated Champ
Clark for the nomination for the
presidency when he had a clear
majority of the delegates. On the
tenth ballet, Clark had $50 votes,

WATERLOO, Iowa, Oct. 7
O.N.SO.-Frank o. Lowden, for

a candidate for the Republican
nomination for President-1920

Of his approval on the agricultural

a stirring speech here last night
described debts, taxes and ten

Further attacking the Roose-

Lowden declared that the ex-
penditures of the New Deal "are
so colossal and enormous" that
the human brain is unable to
grasp them.
He declared:
