sponsibilities with men. There
fore, they must bear arms If they
would hold jobs. They must fight,
If and when the time comes, IL
they would work. They must look
forward to WARRIOR a dictatorship
and Communism must depend on
ornaments for their survival.
Fare Better in Democracy
A democracy, such as we have,
Is replete with kindness and SYM
pathy for women. We are not
asked, not even permitted, to per-
form hazardous jobs under the blind
excuse that equality of toll is being
recognized. We are not asked, or
permitted, to organize for war.
True, Spanish women have been
bearing arms. French women
fought on the streets Of Paris dur
ing the Revolution. Their motives
are easily understandable. These
women acted on the spur Of an emo
tional impulse, because of a wrong
which had smoldered within them
for a long time. That Is a distinctly
different procedure than training
for active battalion service. Any
woman will fight for her husband
or child or freedom when her Sc
curity is attacked. It Is cowardice
not to. ff5
Rather than deploring that we
do not have an equal labor pro-
gram with men, as do the Russian
women, we should rejoice that we
are not asked to play follow the
masculine leader into, the trenches.
After all, II the women of a
nation become war-minded, how
can that universal peace, that BROTH
erhood Of man, that federation OF
the world. Of which poets write and
statesmen talk and ministers preach,
ever find foothold?
It Is a woman's job to work for
peace. to influence man to share her
views. In a democracy this privi-
lege is hers. After all, her rights
are not so limited in nation such
as the one where we hold citizenship.

In TITS, measles broke out on

this epidemic was due partly to
the intensity with which measles

there is no immunity.
1t has been suggested, however.

to the fact that so many people

Measles Is spread mostly through

not had the disease with those who

In the secretion Of the nose and of

We do not happen to know def

do know, however, that 1t Is in

various ways. For example, in
lection Of the blood of q measles
victim into the blood Of one who
does not have the disease will
cause the second person to con-
tract the disease. Moreover, nose
and mouth secretions of those
who have the disease may be used

but experimental measles can be

Thus, 1t Is wise to wash the

gown before entering the room
