What Makes jt Town?
A prosperous rural population which demands a commun-
ity centre where may be established business, education-
al, religious and entertainment facilities. Where these
flourish and are active it is safe to surmise that the peo-
ple of that section realize and appreciate the value to
them of such a centre. •
flhat Maintains It,?
The towns are largely maintained by the surrounding
districts. But, the organization, the direction, and to a
great measure the up -keep, of the institutions in, snail
towns are in the hands of the 'business interests, togeth-
er with those 'directly and indirectly connected there-
with.,,
here with.,, Without the active business and professional men.'
to supervise and govern these public institutions and
undertakings no town could thrive,

A olumn Preall -
So God created man in his own int
age, in the image' of God created h
him; vial and' n
Male. .lex ala created he
them. Genesis 1_:27.
e
A family, group were : chatting
around a cheerful hearth Tire the oth-
er evening when the conversation
turned, as turn it always" will,'to the
"New' Woman", to the 'tendency of
modern woman to think; and: act for
herself. One of the men present, a
man who always' sees`the funny Side
and usually gives . �viiirirsical expr'es--
sion to it, turned to another and said:
"Life, was simplar .when a11, women
were angels and all men were wick:
ed and dependea 'entirely 'upon` their'
womenkizrd to, keep; ,themfrom going
to the bad place, eh, brother?" "Yes,".
assented the other. '‘Those were 'the
days when `men were men' ,
Of course, these ,nen were just hav-
ing a bit of a joke, but nevertheless,
there was, ander their fooleri, per-
haps, a tiny' but of regret that the old
order had changed. It used to be,
though nobody knows when it started
or how, that women were supposed to
have all the virtues and nien all the
vices and when a man got into trouble
and broke all the' commandments he
was excused on the ground of being
a man and liable to yield to tempta-
tion, but when a woman did .anything
wrong, as being but. human she was
likely to do occasionally, she was held
up as a horrible example and scorned
and ostracized by society.•
Women were supposed to spend
their lives trying to keep some man
from going to the bad. Her father,
her brother, her husband and her son
in turn often fell to a woman's lot to
"save" from his own moral weaknesi
ses. If a man went wrong the re-
sponsibility was ahvays placed upon
his mother or his wife. You hear it
given as an excuse almost every day'
if a man turns out badly: "Oh, well,
what could'. you- expect with such a
mother, or with such a wife!" It ie
seldom, indeed, that the excuse is of-
fered if a woman makes a wrong step
that she was driven to it by her fath-
er or her husband, or anybody. It is
her own fault, always.
Sometimes women . are blamed for
taking upon themselves too much the
responsibility of regulating the lives
of their menfolk, and it must be ad-
mitted that occasionally this is a true
bill. But it is hardly to be wondered
at if a woman now and then,, know-
ing that she is to be held responsible
for the Way her husband") turns out,
should grow a bit tired of the role of
the weeping and praying martyr, and
take to telling Trim in good, straight
English what sort of a silly ass limb
and how he can mend his ways by
simply following her advice.
Where men get their authority for
setting women up as moral superiors,
'(it is the only sort of superiority they
ever can be made to admit) I have
never been able to find out. But
there ,has been for some time a grow-
ing feeling of irksomeness amongst
women as to this role which their
lords have thrust upon their unwilling
shoulders. Women are not any better
titan men; they are made,.of-the same
clay; they are ruled by the same pas-
sions. A. husband has no more righf
to expect his wife to help hen to walk
straight than a woman has to expect
such moral support from her husband.
Sonie folk are terribly pessimistic
about the state of the world today,
the unrest, the overthrowing of old
traditions and the setting up of new
standar .s. But, as a great writer
said long ago, "There is no growth
without confusion" The race is learn-
