A bank's real strength consists in the amount of its good assets in proportion to the amount it owes its depositors. The UNION NATIONAL BANK OF SCRANTON, has $1.56 of good, clean assets back of each $1.00 of deposits which makes it one of the strongest banks in the United States.

Thurston, at the New York School of Philanthropy, formerly chief probation officer of the juvenile court of Chicago. experience in actual probation work in charge of a large department in the Middle West and his opportunities for studying the various developments in probation work throughout the East make him exceptionally qualified to advise with Pennsylvanians concerning the problems in probation work. He 'will speak on "The Probation Officer at His Work." The Hon. Edward Mulready, commis cioner of labor of Massachusetts, formerly of the State Probation commission; Mr. Mulready is a national figure in the probation field.

The first application of the probation principle was made in Massachusetts, and Mr. Mulready has been instrumental in the development of work since the beginning. Owing to his success in the probation commission he was chosen to the extremely difficult post of labor commslsioner. Judge Henry A. Fuller, of Luzerne county, will speak on "The Big Brother and Sister Movement" Fuller has devoted himself to the work of the juve nile court, and in his terse way he says the principles on which his court is run can be boiled down to promptness, privacy and patience.

These three "P's" sum up the proper way to handle juvenile cases. Judge William A. Way, president judge of the county court of Allegheny county, wil speak on "The Personal Relationship Between the Juvenile Court Judge and the Wards of His Court." Judge Way has devoted his time to the juvenile court and is making a thorough study of it.

Canada and San Francisco, Cal. According to Mr.

Truesdale conditions in general all over the country are ex cellent and everything has a prosperous aspect. He said "The western states report fine crops. Everything is flourishing in and North and South Dakota Business is picking up in many places where complaints have been heard of times being dull. There is a bumper crop in Canada, but the war has hampered the Canadians a great deal." Mr. Truesdale was accompanied by his son.

RINE SAYS LACKAWANNA IS NOT SELLING STEEL General Superintendent E. M. Rine, of the Delaware, Lackawana Western railroad company, branded the published story that the company was under contract with the Italian government to furnish scrap steel axles which will be converted into shrapnel, as "ridiculous and without the least semblance of truth." Mr. Rine declared that the Lackawanna company every month sells scrap Iron and steel axles that are of no use, to dealers, but that they had never contracted with any government to furnish them this material.

M. J. Martin, Vice President. Absolute Safety is in every methods and trickery" introduced by club women politicians seeking to exploit club influence for political ends. The endorsement of suffrage by various federations of women's clubs is often cited, but is anything more signified than that the most aggressive individuals in the clubs have manipulated club machinery successfully? For example, take the Woman's club, of Minneapolis.

It has a membership of over 600 representative women, it is affiliated with the Minnesota State Federation; consequently, it has been committed in a technical sense to the endorsement of suffrage. The fact is, that its membership has never been polled upon this question, nor has any delegate ever been instructed by it, nor would any one of its officers presume to conjecture what the outcome of uuch a poll might be. Please observe that we Anti Suffragists cite no churches, clubs or philanthropic bodies as endorsers of our recently organized opposition. Wo abstain from that form of propaganda for fear in the present unhappy state of public opinion of alienating part of the support upon which such organisations must depend. Apparently, the Suffragists have more confidence in the magnanimity of the Anit Suffragists! WOMEN'S PARTY ALIGNMENT An analysis of the women's vote In Chicago is interesting, because in Chica go women leaders of character and experience and high motives, like Jane Addams, had been especially active.

Do the women stand by these leaders when it, comes to a vote? Not at alL The women leaders espoused the Progressive party in return for its espousal of wo man suftrage. but when the votes were counted in November, 1914, it appeared that only two per cent, more women than men voted for he Progressive ticket. The analysis reads as follows: Democratic voters, men forty four per cent, women forty three per cent. Republican voters, men forty per women thirt nine, per cent. Progressive voters, men sixteen per women eighteen per cent.

Show ing that the women aligned themselves with the three parties in Just about the same proportion as the men. The mayor alty election in April, 115, showed the As a contribution to the discussion about woman's suffrage, which is exciting so much attention at present Mrs. Charles 8. Weston, of this city, submits the following from the Minneapolis Dally News, which printed it as the argument of the Minneapolis Association Opposed to the Further Extension of the Franchise. WOMEN WELL REPRESENTED The government of this country Is representative democracy.

The male citizens elect the legislators to represent the people and make their laws. Is this unfair to the women of the country and does it leave them unrepresented? Not in our opinion. We hold that it is not the representation of each i individual that a representative gov i ernment seeks to secure in order to be truly democratic, but the representation, in so far as they relate to government, of the Ideas of every community and every class. When every kind of man, from the unskilled laborer to the president of the university, may 'vote, either the interests of every kind of woman are represented or else the interests of men and women are not, broadly speaking, identical. The heart of the matter lies in this: Are women a class apart or are they part of every class? Would wives of the farmers vote for the most part as the farmers vote, or otherwise? Twenty out of the twenty four and one half millions of adult American women are, or have been married.

Do these women one and all stand with their men folks or against them? In the opinion of the Anti Suffragist women are not a class apart; they are a part of every class and so merged in and identified with every class that there is no woman except the crank whose views are not represented and whose interests are not safe guarded almost automatically sO far as government is concerned. A woman is not, in our view, represented merely by the men of her own family many a household of women has no men folks but by men of like mind and like interests in every strata of society. The woman who asserts that her opinions are not represented may mean that no particular man votes at her bidding. But if her opinions are of worth, they will win their own way and obtain their own constituency. If there is a woman whose views make no appeal to any type of male voter, that woman would be in a hopeless minority if she could vote: in fact, she would not be likely to find a platform she could endorse or a candidate she could support.

In all this we must remember that there is always a deal of difference between voting for sheer ideas and voting for party nominees. The Anti Suffragists believe that the men and the women of America have common interests; that those interests spring from and center in the home, that since manhood suffrage is universal, democracy is effectually secured and women are adequately represented. But even so, is it fair to leave the bur den of political activity solely to the men? Not unless women render an equivalent to society at large. The ob Ject of government is to secure fair conditions and the end of fair conditions is the development of the best type of life in the community and in the individ ual. And to this end women contribute a preponderating share in the home and the school and through philanthropic.

church and club activities. The task of character building is, in fact, largely in their hands. If they build well the foundations of character in each generation, women earn the right to rest upon that character. A racial instinct lies beneath the general division of duty between child rearing and home making on the one hand, and the management or business and government on the other. But though women are content to delegate certain responsibilities, they do not wash their hands of the issue.

They Dlav their part in public affairs such women as live nobly and intelligently by their immense influence upon public opinion. Behind all effective legislation must lie a body of informed public opinion. Women react upon government through this' powerful means just in proportion as they are alert and in telligent. Corrupt and ignorant women do not offset the influence of earnest and good women upon public opinion, but, with universal franchise, every vote oust bv an ienorant or corrupt woman would offset the vote of a woman of high character. Surely, neither womanhood nor the state profit by that bargain.

WOMEN'S NON PARTISAN POWER It may be asked, would not woman's Influence be all the greater if she possessed the ballot? We do not believe so. We think it is very much more potent because she is non partisan. She is now able to approach any public measure with an unprejudiced mind because she is not bound by party lines. She has no political trade to negotiate, no party pledges to fulfill, no candidate to support, no appointment to seek in short, no axe to grind. We believe, for example, that today the women of Minnesota Vtre almost unanimously bringing pressure to bear on the side of temperance.

Were the ballot in their hands, women would break their ranks and divide according to the old party alignments. No one cause can enlist tho women of Minnesota when the women of Minnesota have become just more Democrats, more Republicans, more Progressives or more Socialists. It is a great asset for the state to have one half its citizenship, representing all stages of societv, free from the limitations of partisanship and able to concentrate on the ethical side of public questions. But it Is an asset that can be obtained on a democratic basis only by following the line of sex cutting 'through every layer of society alike. WOMEN'S UNDIVIDED INFLUENCE The undivided non partisan influence of good and intelligent women, an influence growing stronger as women grow broader, has been notably illustrated in the history of Women's Federated clubs.

Dissension over the franchise already threatens the unity of these clubs, If the franchise be imposed we believe that this unity will lost and that the power of the clubs will slowly disintegrate. The withdrawal of the Ebell club, of San Francisco, from the California State Federation of Women's clubs, is a concrete example. The Ebell club, the largest women's club in California, withdrew from the State Federation in June, 1915, as a protest against "the political You need upon sf you Deed glasses Consider that every Shur on we Sell you combines fifty years of experience of the manufacturers who. make them and twelve years of experience we ha've had in fitting them, a combination that guarantees complete satisfaction.
