'\ gill is”using what kind of a poor fish she i.s angling for. The facts are that a cigarette drip‘- ping from the lips of a girl has never yet attracted any man worth atlracl- ing. __ _ Tlie seciet of a woman’s power has always ^een in her womanlines.s,' not her ma.M’ulinity. I know'of a girl wlio i.s an expert boxer, but I do not know of any man who wants to marry a trained sparring partner. “The luord made the women beauti ful and foolish. Beautiful so that the men would love them and foolish .so that they could love the men.” The modern girl who think.s she can TjesC-gain her rights by stepping down from high ideals of womanhood is simply mistaken. She will get some flattery, some ridicule behind her back and sure di.wa})pointment. The alarming thing about this gaso- .line, self-starting age is the fact that so many young women are a.shamed of their best. They would rather be called goofl sports than goo<l women. Liberty (ioes not cohsi.st in being allowed to .le our woist, but the right I to become ou’.‘ best. We have complained • against the I dbulile standard. I am opi)osed to it. ’ But the on y progress we have made' A in attaining a single standard has ♦ been the Towering of women’s stan- J (ia'ii.s down toward that, of the inert. We fretpaently hear girl.* eomjilain- ing about tile restrictions of conven tions. But I ilo not know of many con ventions that interfere with a girl be coming more womanly’. I do’know of some tliat have been developed for the purpose of safeguarding her mod- tijtyg her- Daott-insult.s and makirfg her fight for chastity easier. If the modern girl wishes to be free from conventionality she must accept the- responsibility, for the develop ment of lierwomaiillne^s watEbut tEe" old safeguards of her freedom has been a loss instead of a gain. Chivalry and courtesy are the fin est compliments that gooiU-m*}^^ ever pay to good women. The woman who attracts this sort of attention from any, man is the one who is most a woman. The lowest gutter bum In st inctively recognizes a wom-anly w’o- man and summons all his remaining manhood to show her respect. The wo man whose strongest appeal is her sex is certain- to get the attentions of men who have no other interest in her. Self-resi)ect is the finest virtue that any person can cultivate. The world will never rate us any higher than we ’ rate ourselves. The woman whD es- ' Teems herself common will be accept- I ed as such ’oy the community. The giri-|l ’ who give.s her high favors to every | < I Anan is held in high favor by none of them. She who reserves her best for one man will be respected by all. | I overheard a young woman defend- | ing her drunkenness on the grounds{ that she was broad-minded on the "subject.
