day's women--the danger of slump-

ing into poor imitations of men, of losing all their feminine Persengiig If that happens, it seems to. me, neither the men nor hn nor our society will have gained anything. 3 Indeed there is something frightening in women’s quick reaetions to the man’s world into which they have recently stepped—the world of lan union labor. They have been forced to put on masculine clothes in order to do masculine work. But with those clothes they are donning certain other masculine attributes which do not become them so well. Swaggering, mannish strides and postures—profanity which slips too easily from soft lips—lustful looks from shameless eyes—drunkenness— the coarsening process has begun. How far will it go? Not so far, I hope, but that we can rescue certain fragments: of femininity from this masculine and brutalized era.
