ARE WOMEN HOLDING UP THE STANDARD?
The fulure of our country depends largely on the homes and home
life of its women. If the mothers care little for home and neglect the
duties of home, the home is not apt to influence childhood and inspire
it with an ambition to make a desirable cilizen.
With feelings of the highest respect and regard for the womanhood
of the Soulh. we desire to enter a protest against present day tenden
cies which do not bode good for them and tor the boys and girls whose
lives they are to shape and guide In a higher and nobler destiny.
It may sound to most women of loday as a wail from an old fogy,
when he sounds a note of warning and charges southern womanhood
as not holding up the standard and living the pure and high ideals
which made the fomen of the south adored and worshipped in the
nays of long ago, but it is a deplorable truth, nevertheless, and one
that brings serious thought and consideration to those who still cling
to the traditions of the past and attribute that glorious era with all of
its chivalry and true manhood to the real womanhood and mother
hood of that period of our illustrious history.
Then they loved home and domestic affairs, they felt it was of .su
preme importance and one of the essential duties devolving on them
to be at home, look after their children, make home attractive to them
and the dearest spot on earth.
They took time for meditation, for reading standard works, for im
proving and developing their literary attainments and in
making home a refuge.
They were familiar with all of the great authors and an air of gen
tleness and refinement pervaded the homes of those blessed with op
portunities for the cultivation of those accomplishments which are so
necessary to womanhood and motherhood.
Their ideals resulted in developing real hoys and girls into real
men and women, and built a civilization never before attained and
which should never be forgotten.
The Times would like for every woman who thinks to make this
personal, put the following guest ions to herself and decide whether
•he is acting the part of a real woman aud doing her duty to her coun
try, to her children and Those around her;
Have 1 kept up this high standard of the past and further develop
ed it f
Do I read and study the best authors*’ Do I take an interest in home
and domestic affairs? Do I look after my children and try to make
home the best loved and most attractive place for my children? Do I
as a young lady or mother stay at home or away from home most of
my time? Do I prefer social functions, visiting ami being on the
streets to home? Had 1 rather let my children run wild on the streets
than he bothered with them? Am I trying to make the world better
and giving what spare moments 1 have to church and charity work?
Is my sole ambition to outdresx other women and excel them in enter
taining?
Conditions today justify these questions being asked and answered
eandedly ami truthfully. Never lias there been a time in the history
of our Country when homes have been so forgotten and neglected hv
the fathers and mothers.
WORKERS AND THINKERS.
(The Philadelphia Public Ledger.)
The work of the world ami the welfare of Immunity are not advanc
e<| by any force that widens the gap between those who work and
lliose who think. Ii we look only at the limning red of radicalism and
regard that as the whole ot the labor movement, \uc do a gross injust
ice to those who sincerely seek enlightenment and want to he shown
the ligltl way to lake in all taimess ot dealing between man and man.
American labor is too intelligent to allow itself to he led by demago
gues, torcvei between the slough ot despond and the hungry wilder
ness of idleness, H soon finds out that false friends, pretending to
serve, are using it for their selfish ends.
The best triends of lultor, aud therefore the best friends of America
are those who spread the true and righteous doctrine of the relation
ship in all industry between employer and employed ami make it
clear to both that the interests of the one are the interests of the other
The enemies of their country and of humanity are those who use a
superficial education or a pernicious fluency in speech to rend the so
cial fabric so carefully and thoughtfully woven by men and women
who gave their lives in toil and prayer to a higher service than the
com tort ot the flesh. Any fool can put the torch to an edifice that it
took a long time to build. The schools have no duty more imperative
than to teach Americanism. The rule of three is not so important as
the golden rule. No law of grammar and no theorem of mathematics
is higher than the basic principles of justice. Business is not a division
oi the spoils between a boss and a hand of hirelings; it is a productive
partnership with a mutual interest Ii can only live ami flourish in a
co-operative understanding it does not yield its profits in a condition
tout lio\er>. between open warfare ami a sullen armistice. Whether it
brings m any return to ita administration or its operatives depends
m. who her it keepsi in motion; it can hardly be reckoned in industrial
t lumph to establish the closed shop if the business is thereby dosed
as well. J 1
TOO MANY SPEECHES.
(The Ohio St lit e* Journal. 1
Ajj soon as h rann is elec tod to a prominent office lu* is set upon by
* 1 ‘ he P°i>ulaee to come out and make a speech. Every church every
club, every chanty goes for him with a vim, and he bends to ail their
wishes. W e do not think he should do it. He weakens himself by doing
. He naturally eomprofhiaea himself because being in the presence of
friends of a particular movement be furnishes them hopes of render
ing assistance to them when the purpose is ripe. In this way he be
comes committed to all the little ventures of a community. That of
•tselr weakens his power and influence and tends to make him a no
body n e have seen Rood men ro to the bow-wows by making speeeh
e* every time they are asked to. Such people have a care because thev
really belong to he public and should not fritter away their influence
upon triffles. There is oo much speech-making anyhow. People are apt
to think that they are substitutes for good deeds- Hut they are not.
They are more apt to encourage the omission of good deeds than the
performance of them.

EDICT AGAINST FACE PAINT
(Brooklyn Eagle.)
Rouge and powder, short dresses and openwork waists are not ar
-1 istic. Neither do they ahhow a balanced judgement. For those rea
aons I acker Collegiate Institute here has banned them.
There have been violations. Several pupils have appeared at the
school with signs of the vanity bo* on their cheeks and the down of
10 imtr on their noses They found that the faculty was not joking.
h v were asked to adjourn to a washroom and on reporting to class
to show a countenance open and aliove paint. A second violation
means a report to parents or guardian.
