Miss Frances E. Willard on the Nows- paperand Its Makers, In brief, woman now the opportu- nity to do for journalism what she long ago accomplished for literature—to drive out the Fieldings and the Smolletts from its temple; to replace sentimentality by ntiment; to frown upon coarse fests, debasing inuendoes and irr rent wit- ticisms; to come intots realm as A creature not too bright or good, For human nature's duily food, And yot a spirit fair and bright, fih something of an angets light. The difference between the smoking and drawing-room cars on a railway train illustrates that between average journal- ism as it is and as it will be when men and women sit at their desks in the samo editorial and reportorial sanctums, One is full of fumes, the other of perfumest one is a small scetion of chaos, the other of ¢ ion nd all because one is de- naturalizing, the other natural.

No truth, theological, political or economic, can be seen in its entirety until the stercoscopic view from the two angles of vision, the musculine and feminine, give it precision and bring it out into symmetry. Clearly enough, woman's opportunity in journalism is just what it 15 in the great world. She "has a role peculiar to herself. The niche she is to fill wonld remain empty but for her arrival.
