Bt G Some people are afraid of woman suffrage. It's coming. It's almost here. Just as well make up your mind that you -will accept the con- dition and make the best of it. We fail to see why the women should be denied a vote because it is feared that they might vote for prohibition. This country should be ruled by the majority, and if the majority is against booze, the traffic should be stopped. In this section nine out of ten prohibition votes will come be- 4.

GENERAL OFFICES « NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES Women As Congressmen. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the National Woman Suffrage as- sociation, says: “It is five years too soon for any woman to go to con- gress.” This may be discouraging to feminine congressional aspirants in Colorado and elsewhere, but there is sound sense in it. No doubt wo- men are going to sit in the house and senate some time. It may even be considered possible that a woman will attain the presidency of the United States. There may be a Sem- iramis, Elizabeth and Catherine la- tent in the ranks of American femin- ism. But there is no cause for haste. No fundamental change in government policy or method is worth a continental unless it comes about inevitably, as the result of or- derly growth. When the time ar- rives for women to take their places as governors, judges, senators and ambassadors there will be-ne shock, because they will have demonstrat- ed their fitness for promotion to the more responsible places of public service. Just now, as Dr. Shaw in- timates, a congresswoman would be an anomaly. Congress is not yet ready to admit women on equal terms—which is the only way they ought ever to be admitted. And wise women will not try to force their way into high office prema- turely. Their course lies through municipal offices, state legislatures and departmental work for state and nation. When large numbers of them have made good in such activi- ties, as eminent members of their sex making good already in Colo- rado, Chicago arlld New York, mnot only will they” have the requisite truining for federal legislation and administration, but the people will be prepared to welcome them in those capacities. Eliminates the Middleman. Officials of the United States de- partment of Agriculture have been testing out the parcels post as a means of marketing eggs and have found it highly satisfactory. The department has shipped 466 lots, consisting of 9,131 eggs to various parts of the nation and upon ar rival at destination, only 327 eggs, or three and one-half per cent of the total were broken. Ten dozen eggs can be shipped in one contain- er a distance of 150 miles at a cost of 4.7 cents per dozen. This in- cludes the cost of transportation and container. Minnesota postal ® au- thorities advise that the farmers and farmers’ wives of this state are util- izing the parcels post extensively in selling farm produce direct to the consumers and excellent results have been obtained. Last winter when eggs were being sold by retailers at from 50 to 60 cents to the consumer the farmers were only receiving 20 and 25 cents per dozen for their product, giving the middleman from 30 to 40 cents on each dozen eggs he handled. The parcel post sys- tem of marketing entirely eliminates the middleman’s profit and divides the profit of the middleman among producer and consumer.

This Jersey Community of Working People Appears to Have Solved Many Problems In Short Existence. A Ploneer In City Manager Plan. Ten years ago practically the whole body of the Roebling workers lived In the cities as they had been living for decades before in the decayed tene- ments that clustered about the great shops. With its fellow industries the Roebling plant fought its way through strikes, lockouts, changes of working force, poorly done work, all the tribu- lations that harass capital. “We've got to make the best of these things,” explained the other manufactury “No.” objected the Roeblings. got to make these things bette Such was the origin of Roebling, N. J. Established for nine years, this town of Roebling has passed safely the pre- carfous stage of immaturity that has proved fatal to so many similar proj- ects. It has grown and flourished, has provided its founders with labor that is competent to produce the highest grade of work and has secured for these workers the highest comfort, health and happinéss nt the least ex- pense. On the paper ef thecry the project was fantastic; on the books of fact it has proved highly practicable and profitable. From its inception the policy that has dominated and con- trolled Roebling has been autocratie, patriarchal. ‘The Roebling company owns all land. houses. industries, stores, even the police and fire depart- ments. The company supplies work and shelters the worker, and should that worker prove unworthy he is sum- wmarily discharged and deprived not only of his wages, but of his habita- tion as well. Out he must go, bag and baggage. beyond the village limits. Whether this policy of paternalism is responsible for the success of Roebling or whether the town has succeeded in ~ HOUSES OF THE FOREMEN AT ROEBLING. spite of such benevolent despotism is a mooted question. Certain it is, how- ever, that Rocbling has been wonder- fully prosperous, while many similar projects have fallen into' decay. The man who stands between the Roebling company and the Roebling worker Is the manager, Raymond H. Thompson. To him are inttusted the prosperity of the company 'and at the same time the welfare of'the worker. - Sunitation, liealth—its maintenance ef- fectively assisted by a well equipped Lospital — education, police and fire regulation, housing, water supply, all phases of commercial and social life, are under'the manager’s: supetvision, who ‘administers these functions under the policy directly authorized by the of- ficers of the company. The result is a town of over 3,000 people living a sane and comfortable life in the open coun try: a town of broad, scrupulously clean streets, gréen ‘grass and trees; a ‘town'where'disease seldom cripples the worker, ‘so itijuring bis work; a town where every man may be sure-of just and sympathetic judgment upon all his TO 'SAVE EYES 1s ‘the ‘OBject of This Free Pre- scription—Try It if Your Eyes Give You Trouble, Thousands of people suffer from eve troubles becaue they do not know what 10 40, ~They—know-some-good-heie. rom-. edy for every’ otlfer.. minor -ailment, none for their eye tronbles.
