Economic Power Held by Women Receive Most Inherited Property; Lead as Goods Buyers. BY GKF.TTA PALMER, Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Feb 26.—This business about woman's alleged Inferiority is a curious thing. Heaven alone knows how it started or why it is able to persist in the face of facts which would tend to disprove it. Yet there it is—probably the greatest con game that one sex has

ever successfully worked on the other in the history of the world. Woman, as far a s intelligence tests in the colleges have been able to show, is exactly as intelligent as man. No more, no less. Women have a special ability and function that of child bearing which is denied men. Women have

a greater physical endurance than men, although a lesser ability to muster their strength at a given second for a clinch or a toss or a dive. They have made notable names 1 for themselves in practically every ! art during the progress of the cen- j turies and have achieved the sig- j niflcant task of bearing and bring- ! ing up all of the men geniuses as i well. And now it is shown by the publication today of a book called “Women and Wealth.” by Mary Sydney Branch, that they are the economic overladies of the United States at the moment. Inherit Most of Property Women, Miss Branch points out In a most scholarly and instructive study, are the recipients of between 70 and 80 per cent of all inherited property in this country. They compose one-fifth of the nations paid workers, and they control, almost exclusively, the expenditure of family funds. Ours is primarily an economic and financial culture. We are not predominantly artists or philosophers or scientists; we are makers and consumers of goods. And in this economic order woman today plays a part of such overpowering importance that she holds, all unconsciously, the balance of power within her fearful fingers. Listen to what Miss Branch quotes from Charles A. Beard: Buying Power Gives Edge “Although from Caesar’s day onward strong men have denounced those things which tend to effeminacy, as a matter of brutal fact without those very things there would be little more than ca\es and barracks of bare monastic walls in the whole world. However that may be historically, women are now the chief buyers of goods, including letters and arts—thus within generous limits the directors of business enterprise. “What, then, becomes of the feminist dictum that a civilization can rise no higher than the status of its women? Whether this contention is true of societies founded on war and priestcraft, it certainly seems to be true of an industrial order—a system of mass production for diversified popular consumption. “Leaving aside for the moment Women’s relations to the arts and letters, it must be admitted that th r power as buyers of goods gives them a strategic position in the unfolding of modern civilization.” j

Pitcher of Rare Type Owned by Indiana Man

BY MRS. C. O. ROBINSON Times Hobby Editor THE collector of old china in America finds a singular situation in the fact that practically no porcelain was made in the colonies before the Revolution and very little for approximately fifty years later. Much pottery and heavy crockpry had been produced since early days, but, in spite of the fine deposits of kaolin that were found in America, little porcelain was made. Consequently almost all of the very early china found in the United States is of foreign manufacture and a large part of it was made in Staffordshire and Liverpool, England, in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Before the Revolution very little china was designed exclusively for the colonial trade, but after we became a separate nation, much English ware, decorated with portraits of important Revolutionary heroes and other American patriotic themes, was sent to American markets. Although the colonies only recently had conquered the mother country, the English pottery manufacturers did not hesitate to advance the sale of their product by catering to American patriotism. They even made pieces showing Washington with his foot upon the head of the British lion. Washington’s portrait, of course, was the most popular and was used on many pieces of pottery and porcelain. On Liverpool ware, however, is found the greatest diversity of Washington patterns. Collectors have found a few plates and tea pots in the old Liverpool ware, a crean colored glazed product with bl .ok transfer decoration, but generally they find mugs and pitchers, including the large “watermelon” pitchers, so called because of their size and shape.

TN her book on china collecting, -■- Alice Morse Earle says, “Large Liverpool pitchers are found almost exclusively along the New England coast and I consider that they were gifts brought to America by Yankee sailors. They seldom can be purchased as they usually are cherished. Fortunate is the household and proud should be its members to possess one of these historic relics.’’ Avery rare, authentic and treasured specimen of a large Liverpool pitcher is owned by George W. Parker, Terre Haute. It has a tall gracefully curved body with a sharp pointed spout and a plain handle starting at the top and ending at the center. On one side is a transfer print known as “Washington's Monument,” an oval design featuring a monument shaft adorned with a medallion portrait of Washington surmounted by a laurel wreath and urn. The shaft is enscribed “Geo. Washington. B. Feb. 22. 1732. D. Dec. 17, 1799,” with the Coat of Arms of the Washington family below\ On one side of the monument is a weeping female figure and on the other an eagle with drooping wings. The background is filled with weeping willow trees and streaming rays of light. On the opposite side, the pitcher is decorated with "Tire Farmers Arms”—at that time all trades were organized into Guilds and each had a Coat of Arms —“The Farmers Arms” is formed of such appropriate objects as hayracks, scythes, ploughs and churns. Beneath the handle of the pitcher and enclosed in a wreath is the tribute to Washington, “A man without example. A patriot without reproach.” Low in the front is shown the seal of the United States with thirteen stars, and, as a crowning touch, immediately beneath the spout encircled with a design is the name B. Parker. a tt tt MR. PARKER has no intimate history of the pitcher except that it has been inherited by each eldest son, but Mrs. Robert Geddes Sr. of this city, likewise a descendant, thinks that it is the remaining one of a pair. As Benjamin Parker is my husband's ancestor, also. I know that he lived in North Yarmouth, Me., and was a soldier in the Revolution. The name fired into the pitcher Undoubtedly identifies it as a presentation piece and the location of North Yarmouth substantiates Mrs. Earle's statement that the pitchers probably were brought to America by seafaring men. The "Farmer's Arms” may indicate that Benjamin was a farmer or may refer to Washington “the country gentleman.” The pitcher evidently was a mourning piece made at the time of Washington's dea/h, and as such, was a fitting gift to a soldier and a patriot. Benjamin Parker died in December. 1834, one month after a grandson was born who is living today in Indianapolis. He is Charles A. Parker. 1902 Bellefontaine street, who will be 100 years old Nov. 7 this year. Since, unfortunately photographs of the Parker pitcher were a failure, the one here shown is reproduced from an illustration in the magazine. It is the same type, is decorated with the same “Washington’s Monument” transfer. and is part of a Liverpool collection belonging to the Buffalo Historical Society.

Mr. Brown, a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, attended Wabash college, and Chauncey Hall in Boston. He is a member of Phi Gamma Delta fraternity. Standards of white flowers with garlands of smilax formed an aisleway from the base of the staircase to the altar, which was arranged with seven-branch candelabra and blue jars of white flowers. Deep windows in the living room were banked with southern smilax, adiantum and farleyense, centered with a blue jar of lilies, snapdragons, roses and freesias. Pink roses were used in profusion in the dining room. Preceding the ceremony and dur- ! ing the reception, the Orloff en- | semble played traditional airs. Mothers Wear Lace

! Mrs. Adams was gowned in powder blue lace with a shoulder corsage of orchids, and Mrs. Brown’s pink lace was worn with a corsage of sweetheart roses and liiies of the valley.
