WOMEN REPLY TO
QUESTIONS ABOUT.
PERSONAL HABITS,
A report on "Student Personality
Traits", a questionaire put to Fresh-
man women at Ohio State as an ex-
periment in psychology, show the fol-
lowing as the four habits of which
the women most disapprove: the;
practice of girls asking men to dance;
reading movie sub-titles aloud; to-
bacco breath, and the biting of finger
nails.
The -five most approved items are:
remembering to keep engagements;
willingness to com'pliment one who
appears to take opposite sides in an
argument without being disagreeable;
keeping dates with girl friends in-
stead of breaking them for dates with
men, and the wearing of simple ap-
propriate clothes on campus.
In this research project four types
were discovered. The first the easy-
going type, approved of more of the
criticized points than did the average
girl., In the second, the highly con-
ventional type were found 52 percent
of the sorority girls. The third type

EQUALITY SHOWN
IN GOLF SCORES
Equality of men and women on the
golf links seems to be a thing of the
very near future judging by the per-
formance of several of the outstanding
women golfers. Three of them have}
recently clicked off seventy-fours over
full-grown golf courses. This deals
a blow to the old masculine idea that
women's only function in golf was to
add color and congestion to the fair-
ways.
Miss Virginia Van Wie of Chicago
was the first to set the pace and she
had to shoot a seventy-four in order
to beat her opponent's seventy-five.

by Mrs. Miriam Burns Horn, woman's

WOMEN NOTICED
IN JOURNALISMk
Many women have gained recogni
tion in politics as a result of thei:
newspaper work; Mrs. Frances Park
inson Keyes, wife of Senator Henry
W. Keyes of New Hampshire, ha
written articles for Good Housekeep
ing, a blend of social and political
chat, which were sucha, success tha
they were put into book form. Sophi
Irene Loeb, editor of Woman's Hom
Companion, won political prominence
as the first well-known newspape
woman crusader. While a niembe
'of the staff of the New York Evenin
Post, she led campaigns which secure
widows' pension laws, play street
for children, lunches in school, an
improved motion picture laws. A
present she is president of the Ne"
York City Board of child welfare, th
only woman at the head of a city de
partment in New' York.
The filhst woman to be admitted t
the press gallery in Washington wa
Mrs. Isabel Worrall Ball. She becam
a member in 1895, when she was re
presenting the Topeka Capital, thi
Hartford Courant and the Hutchinso
News. Mrs. William Brown Melone:
editor of the Delineator, was the firs
woman to be chief of a Washingto
bureau, becoming head of the Denve
Post bureau in 1901. She began he
newspaper career when she was 1

feature articles on national politica
celebrities, and has' continued climb

At present Mrs. Florence' Reddiel
Boys, women's publicity editor, con
ducts a page in the National Republ
can, a party organ. But perhaps tl
most singualr of all the women p

who is accredited as being the on

Dear Mr. Sink:

I regret excedeingly that I have been delayed in
sending you a brief paragraph of eight or ten lines
concerning the importance of your Music Festivals.
I feel that you have been doing a. great piece of
work for a number of years. Your Festivals always
have variety iand furnish the best in vocal ensemble
as well as soloists, and the orchestra i's always a
great attraction with their very artistic work. The
instrumental soloists are always of first rank. I have
regretted every year that it comesfat a time when it is
impossible for me to leave my work here, for I need
the refreshing Inspiration which your programs have
to, offer.
