New Zealand Women.
Ne« Zealand vn- the fi st.
country to adopt ut iversul suff-
rage, and it is said thut it will be
vi n an's cwn fault il s-he does
not control the government Of
that country within 25 years, as
this year's statistics show that
the women votera enrolled out-
number the men in seventeen
electorates.
Toe attorney-general of New
Zealand is quoted as saying that
"there is a reduced degree of do-
mesticity among New Zealand
women." The same may be
said of most other counties of the
world, however, and New Zeal-
and women are perhaps more do-
mestic than some of the others,
for the birth rate is heavy there

Em - p an countries and also the

made bread is the best known and
'divorce is almost unknown.
Suffrage has proven somewhat
■i disappointment because mother
I wife and daughter vote as John
does, and the admitted result is
ihatpilitics is no cleaner and
j there has been no general uplift.
It is asserted that the women
i judge by appeaiances largely
and some men have reached par-
lament on their "shape" or social
ability. Yet New Zealand has
voxed for national prohibition
and the men of the land say they
would not even now deprive wo-
men of the right of suffrage.
When the women get a majority
of the votes, however, there may
be a change in this attitude.
