The Aggressive Sex Should a woman propose to a man? Do they? Is I Year to be taken seriously by the fair and gentler sex’ Miss Evelyn Greeley of film star fame has laid down ithe rule for the woman who would be wed and who hasn't) vet been asked. It isn’t necessary, she says, for any woman} lio propose. She can always make the man do that job. ‘gut she can and should give him a little judicious help, + Miss Greeley is right. It never has been necessary for) pny woman actually to propose marriage to any man, She jean always make the poor male creature think HE is doing a ap se George Bernard Shaw long ago exposed the fiction that woman is the pursued and man the pursuer. The fact is ‘that it is just the other way ‘round. It is the business of the fair sex—a business inherited from thousands of gen- erations of ancestors, branded into the race by evolutionary development—to get herself a mate, Woman's business is In the main, she hoots at that mark unerringly. It is part of her busi- ‘ness of getting herself a mate to make the poor, deluded »male creature think that HE is doing the pursuing; that ‘HE is the masterful, domineering, “stronger” sex; that he! is the courageous protector of the “weaker” sex. And part of her business in | is to make mere man do the actual proposing. But every woman, consciously or subconsciously, must) smile a little to her inner self when the male creature is tal question” tating and blushing “Yes!” Of course, women should not propose. Miss Greeley is They don't have to. All they have to do is to ‘make the men do it. And they DO. and received his hes Many threatened to leave the country when prohi- bition took effect.

This, of course, opened man-| sions and castles even in Russia. The great idea brought ‘the workingman next door to what had been a Russian yb Jon mansions and castles even in Russia.

FE (Copyriaht, 191 The General Conference of the Methodist Church convenes this May at Des Moine There the question will again come up: Shall the Church continue its condemna- tion of certain amusement providing for the expulsion of those members who indulge lin them? | Under the wise direction of Mr. Wesley, |the founder of the denomination, the posi- tion of the Church was stated as being “against taking such diversions as cannot be used in the name of the Lord Jesus.” This rule was reasonable and adapted to an organization which claimed “the world as its parish,” and was not designed to be a mere disciplinary order, Anxious to protest emphatically against |“worldliness,” however, a certain element in the Church succeeded in changing this same principle of Mr. Wesley into a hard ‘and narrow rule, which has made fanaticism and -worked incalculable injury. For the “principle” they substituted a rule, specifying certain amusements, name- ly, uttending “theatres, horse-races, cir cuses, dancing parties, or patronizing dan- cing schools,” etc., as being crimes against the Church, punishable by expulsion. Altho this drastic regulation is out of harmony with the spirit of both Jesus and | Wesley, the advocates of it at once assumed | the virtue of loyalty to the faith and ac- | ‘cused their opponents of “lowering the standards.” The “militarists” always have the advantage in a church council. It is high time, however, that those re- ligious Junkers were deposed. The Board of have advised the abolition the Sishops of repeatedly absurd rule. In 1916 they pointed out that the list, even if good, was incomplete, and that to num- ber all the questionable amusements would be impossible.

With those petitions most friends of the | Methodist Church will agree. There can be little doubt that the re port of the minority of the Committee on Amusements in the General Conference of 1912 is sound in both piety and sense. The report stated that “it does not appear from the experience of the Church that the principle of this legislation has contributed either to the wy of true religious character or the increase of respect for the Discipline and Order of | the Church, or gives promise of such re sults, but is found to be a hindrance to the best type of pastoral appeal and to | contribute to division among sincere and | devoted members of the Church.” that Everett boy, unless Ruth ) hangs beside him, He de hanging—his crime was s9 carefully planned—but did he wreck an innocent woman's home?
