DRIFTING HOMES
How about your home, Mr. Hus
band and Mrs. Wife? The average
husband Is a coward and the aver
age wife a bully. Are you?
Many have either yielded to the
spirit of the day and have permitted
their wives to dominate the domes
tic circles to its disgrace, or they
have practically abandoned their
homes.
Consequently, they occupy one
section of the city, namely, the busi
ness and the club sections, the
saloon or the pool hall, while the
wives take a similar direction In
another part of the city: the home
stands between these two factors In
a neglected condition.
Women have been thrown out Into
the world and seem to care more
for the activities, excitements, gai
eties and outside glares, than they
do for the domestic drudgery, se
clusion, responsibilities and glories
of home.
Women ought to be forced to go
home. But their husbands are too
cowardly to force them, or they aro
too indifferent to their responsibil
ity, or they would rather glide or
travel the road of least resistance,
and let the une drift.
The home is drifting; children
are roaming; wives are gadding.
Their husbands are practicing fraud
and dishonesty on their families.
They are cowardly.
The time has come to re-establish
the home with the sovereignty of
the federal head, the sacred ness of
domestic seclusion, and the proper
adjustment of domestic duties.
The dark spot In the present civ
ilization is the neglected home
Cowardly husbands are responsible
for every phase of domestic.decline.
Let the men awake, reassert them
selves, re-establish their homes and
build again the domestic—the na
tional fortification—namely, a well*
organized domestic circle. •

[ A Town is No Greater Than the Faith of Its Staunchest Citizens
This Woman Started Something
The Virginia woman who pinned a note to a potato she had
raised, reading: “I got 24 cents a bushel. What did you give 1’ ’
started something, because the man who noticed the potato paid
$1.20 a bushel, and the facts leaked out. Trust a woman to
find an ingenious way to bring Oppression to public notice. Also
happily, trust the American man to change conditions when they
assail the welfare of our womanhood.
One of these days we will bring into being a real commission
of inquiry, one with vision, one with practical business sense,
one with sound economic knowledge and finally one without self
interest and freo from pull. An impossible combination? No,
some day it will be found, and then a happier condition will
arise as rapidly as the blood-suckers who live on the labor of
their fellows fall by the wayside. Middlemen are necessary, of
course, due, to the great complexities of our modern civilization,
but in the last twenty years the consumer has been removed
so far from the producer that they have nothing in common.
Every day the strain is getting harder and harder to bear,
and it will get worse before it gets better. Nature brings about
man’s advance by the lash. There seems to be no other way.
One day, however, we will implant in the minds of our high
school boys and girls a love for economics—perhaps under a
more attractive name —the Science of Human Freedom, for ex
ample. Then will arrive a generation that will not be fooled by
the exploiters of mankind.
Let Down Bars; Let Labor In J
Unless the government takes some action to ease up restrictions
on immigration the American people will soon be digging into
their hank accounts to meet the rising cost of living. Shortage
of labor is growing more acute every day. This provides a tem
porary boom for the workingman. But prosperity based on pres
ent labors condition lias the qualities of the boomerang. The
workman is a buyer of c nnmodities as well as the seller of his
labor.
When the immigration laws were framed “for the protection
of the American workingman,’’ the people generally believed
that at last we had found a means of establishing prosperity on a
firmer basis. The statisticians figured that the excess of govern
ment employees thrown into the labor market would more than
take care of the demands of growing domestic trade, and that
we could get along very well without the foreigner. The situa
tion, however, has not worked out that way. When the armistice
was signed the government had on its pay roll 917,760 civilian
employees. This list has been cut to 542,513. Within the four
year period the reduction has been approximately 40%, but the
shortage of labor is acute. It is next to impossible to hire skilled
workmen. Domestic servants are dictators of the household
and even with the stupendous wages it is next to impossible
to get an honest day’s work. Everyone, of course, is in sym
pathy with the American workingman, but the employer can
not be crushed between the nether millstones. The net result
of course, is rising prices, and the only solution lies in letting
down of the immigration restriction bars.
