The previous congress had eight woiren. Does the defeat of many women candidates mean that some men will not vote for any lady for high offlce? Some of the old timers persist in saying, in the time vom phrise. that petticoats are not wanted among the law- nakers. They still think the women should be at home cook¬ ing the dinner and minding the children. However, women's ¦hrewd sense may make It easlw to pay for the dinner, also to regulate the nation's wild children. Ihr men ran the government alone tor 131 years, and Wt manv dirty and smelly places. It Is not strange that the •omen long to get at these messes with their energetic brooms. But they will flnd It the biggest housecleaning Job ttey ever tackled. Home Town ThougrKts The citizen of Nazareth who invests no though or effort Id the improvement of his home town, can't expect his home town to return him any dividends of Increased prosperity. While a saleman is talking to one nerson, advertising talk to the whole body of newspaper readers. It does not help so much to talk In favor of your home town in conversation, if your money talks for some other town where you buy goods.

Big Housecleaning Job
There are only six women members In the 72nd congress, vtMse term dates from March 4. The previous congress had eight woiren. Does the defeat of many women candidates mean that some men will not vote for any lady for high
offlce?
Some of the old timers persist in saying, in the time vom phrise. that petticoats are not wanted among the law- nakers. They still think the women should be at home cook¬ ing the dinner and minding the children. However, women's ¦hrewd sense may make It easlw to pay for the dinner, also to regulate the nation's wild children.
Ihr men ran the government alone tor 131 years, and Wt manv dirty and smelly places. It Is not strange that the •omen long to get at these messes with their energetic brooms. But they will flnd It the biggest housecleaning Job ttey ever tackled.
Home Town ThougrKts
The citizen of Nazareth who invests no though or effort Id the improvement of his home town, can't expect his home town to return him any dividends of Increased prosperity.
While a saleman is talking to one nerson, advertising talk to the whole body of newspaper readers.
It does not help so much to talk In favor of your home town in conversation, if your money talks for some other town where you buy goods.
