"All men rule over women; we Ho- { mans rule over all men. and our wives rule over us," said Cato, the censor, i when he hud an attack of nerves. Among notable Roman women the | mind flits—fascinated—from Lucretlf to Cornelia, and lingers with wonder i at the name of Measalina. Cornelia lived in the dnys of the Roman .repub- j lie. daughter of Sclpio Africanus, conqueror of Hannibal, she inherited the stern virtues of her father. Mar ried in 69 B. C. to Sempronlus Grac chus, she was left a widow with 12 children. Only two survived their youth, two sons, Tiberius and Calus. She devoted herself exclusively to their education, and In after days these distinguished orators and states men avowed they owed everything to ! their mother. She declined the suit of King Ptolemy of Egypt. All her j magnificent powers and learning were : consecrated to the two hoys. The Ho- ' man people erected a monument to ! Cornelia, with Ibis inscription: “Cor nelia. Mother of the Gracchi.” - j “ON TO CALVARY” Slogan of Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church in Its Great Financial Drive.
