Tha opportunities axe boundless. The United States has had only two f "women congressmenand has elected the third. The field of diplomacy has ; only just been opened up by the appointment of the first woman to a place in an American embassy. I ' There is no more attractive field in the world today for a woman than politics.. She need onlv one investment her desire to be of service. And h returns in prestige, in influence, in the knowledge of service rendered - art enormous. A woman must train herself for. politics just as thoroughly as she ; would for any other career..- - And she must work from the bottom up. This ' means doing the most menial things that come to her hand.

For in a ' nation still in the making, and where there is such vast territory to be set-tied and cultivated as there is in this country, population naturally shifts froni one place to another,' and if one state's law is to beconw another state's crime, confusion must be the eventuality, and is. . . . Looking all these fact squarely in the face, the only safe and sane solution to the jumble, therefore, is a uniform marriage and divorce law, ' and one that will do justice to every citizen, rich or poor, male or female, young or old, and, above all, to the children, who are the most important constituents of trua marriage and of paramount concern in our national integrity.
