The women of the Current Events Club wish to share the burdens of full citizenship as well as its benefits. They would not escape jury service, but will insist on doing their part here.

The Herald presumes that they would not escape military service either. As a mattei of fact, however, woman does more than her part in war time by bearing sons to fight while she at the same time preserves society and maintains its institutions while the men are away in military service.

The suspicions of the Herald find support in the record for efficiency which Mr. Brocker has made in the Clerk's office. If he was not elected because of a promise of efficiency, then the large majority for a candidate of a minority party needs explanation Mr. Brocker has proved a very satisfying novelty as County Clerk in that he has mastered the details of his and is Clerk de facto as well as de jure.

Sees a Ray of Hope The American Socialist closes an editorial on the situation in Mexico with the following language: But with all of the darkness that shrouds the war-torn nation there is a ray of hope. That ray is found in the knowledge that almost 200,000 men have been fighting under arms for an idea, and that so many men going to the point of death are not likely to allow he idea for which they have suffered to go ROOSEVELT ON THE WAR.

date. Two jtar.s ago Herman Broeker was elected as a Democrat. This year he got his nomination at the Lands of the Democratic party the law still requires partisanship at the primaries but it will never be known who is entitled to credit for the majority which he will get in November. Merit knows no party, Merit will draw votes to Mr. Broeker from all parties.

Efficieit? Yes. But another quility is required in a public servant and that is courtesy. He must make no distinction of person on any account and here again Herman Broeker is on and with the goods. He has been uniformly courteous to all and to all he has given his best service. Opposing candidate's may canvass Hie county in the hope of election to the Clerk's office, but efficiency and courtesy in office will win votes where a personal canvass fails and return Herman Broeker to his office for a second term.

Some speak of the suffrage amendment to the constitution of the state of Kansas as if it conferred citizenship on Kansas women.

This is far from the truth. Woman was a citizen before the adoption of the a-mendment but she was not permitted to enjoy all of the rights of citizenship. She was expected to obey the law and pay taxes to support the government but she was denied the right to help make the laws and she experienced taxation without representation, which is contrary to the principles of democratic government. Too much can not be said of the quality of woman's citizenship. She respected the laws, though she had little reason to, and gave willing obedience to them.

The quality of her citizenship it quite in contrast to that of man who has always been the chief offender as the records of criminality show very plainly. Before enfranchisement, woman's civic activities were public spirited and patriotic. Her organizations had broad functions and were constructive in an attempt at social betterment. Compare women's clubs with those of men. The comparison is alll in favor of the former.

What men's clubs have undertaken a work of social uplift? They are purely selfish. Their purpose is social enjoyment and they serve it to the full. Compare the women's clubs of Lawrence with those of men. The women's clubs are not suspected of any wrong doing. On the other hand, the eye of the law regards the men's clubs with suspicion.

Their record for law violation is well kuown. Man's opposition to the enfranchisement of women has been largely selfish. With him suffrage was a special privilege He clung to the sex monopoly of this privilege with gteat tenacity. The most ignorant and degraded man could say to the noblest and most enlightened woman, after acknowledging her superiority in all eise, but you can't vote. I am your mas-tti there.

Woman's history as a citizen tfives us reason to expect much her as an enfranchised citiz- J. A. KEELER Books, Stationery, Wall Pictures and Picture frames. We Save You" Money. Special Wall Paper Sale now on.
