Dr. Ca:r-.s3 here, introduced the
s-ipt ,-,t in ::: r ur-ua rmi3iieti man- :

The speaker took as one of the
T,oii ts of her address the need for
tl-o women of the nation to exer-fi-e

them in the amendment to the fed

that they might act intelligently onV
the questions that arise covering the
life of the nation and the issues of
the day. The participation of wom
en in linking the affairs of the na
ture claancr was pointed out by Dr.
Calfass as a matter of great import
ance ai'.l one of the ways to prove
that the woman of tho nation were a
real and vital factor in securing and
maintaining better citizenship.
Touching on the more intimate
problems of the child and the home
li.'e the speaker urged the mother to
st-idy hf r child, to take up the prob-1-ms
of the children as her own and
above all to know where the child
ren, c .-p'-.-ially the girls, were at all
times. This was not so vital a mat
ter in the country or small town.
uut v. as a rel problem in the city.
Dr. Calfass .state:!. One of the nres-
e-u day e vils especially in the city I
was the fact that the boy or girl in
at the Imv or iHH in I
their fr were out at all times with
out tha knowledge of the parents as
to their whereabouts and the auto
parties was on" of the big questions
with the mother of daughters, as
thru these many of the troubles of
the home had arisen. Another phase
jof the home question was that the
; mother should be at her home when
the children returned from their
j school work and to see that the prop-
er home surroundings as far as lay
jin their power were provided.
