Progress Of Women

We believe that women today buSily engaged In tnelT
jobs and professions or secure in the rearing OF their families
or management of their own properties either earned by
themselves or left them by their fathers or husbands are
somewhat nnmindful of the privilege that is theirs and
Of the debt they owe to other women leaders and men OF
visions in the yesteryear.
Not always could a woman manage her own proper
ty. That was a right enjoyed exclusively by men. Not always
has she had full legal right over the control of her own child
rem There was a time in the history of the country when hus-
bands could give guardianship of unborn children not to his
wife, but to total strangers; a time when it was perfectly
legal for a man to chastise his wife with a whip no larger
than her wedding ring and to restrain her liberty on the
theory that he was her conscience and answerabie for her
wrong-dong.
Modern American women, enjoying more rights and
privileges than any other women in the world, laugh at such
notions.
But we do not always remember that women who have
been lighting for womens' rights through the years and
some OF the men who have stood shoulder to shoulder with
them should be given a full measure of credit for the pro-
gress we have enjoyed.
Usually when a woman is spoken of as being a.
feminist it is in a tone of distaste by both women and men.
But it is those early feminists and the ideals to which
they subscribed that we enjoy our rights today.
We think that this week of October 1924 dedicated
20 the annual observance of National Business Women's
week would be a fitting time to give credit to those early
Ieminists some OF whom were instrumental in founding the
National Federation of Business and Professional Women's
club. an organization which today takes the lead in the pro-
motion OF the progress of women everywhere in the world.
BPW Clubs everywhere all over the world are engaged
in the movement to secure better opportunities for women,
to secure equal pay for equal work, to obtain full recognition
IN every line of work seeking for ability to be established as
the standard for a job or profession rather than sex.
BPW as the foremost organization in promoting the
iation from every woman, whether she be in her home, class
Don or business.
