IF ELECTED MAYOR OF 
BOSTON? 
Last Sunday’s Herald has an arti- 
cle devoted to the women in which a 
number of prominent workers in the 
suffrage movement answered the 
question as to what they would do if 
they were elected mayor of Boston 
in the coming contest. The article 
was headed by what Miss Lois Stan- 
wood of Manchester and Boston had 
to say. Said Miss Stanwood: 
“You ask me what I would do if I 
were suddenly to be made mayor of 
Boston? I think idealists and dream- 
ers might prove just as practical for 
good as the ‘practical politicians’ who 
are in control at the present time. 
“Tn the matter of reform I should 
begin right in the mayor’s office. He 
should have two secretaries instead of 
one, and one of these should be a wo- 
man. 
“My next work would be to clean 
up the police department. There 
should be women policemen as they 
have in Chicago, and the whole force 
should be reorganized in the interests 
of efficiency. No, I should not want 
to have the women police on the 
street doing duty on the traffic squad, 
though I truly believe women could 
handle the traffic as well as a good 
many masctiine policemen whom I 
have seen. 
“T should use all my influence to 
have laws enacted which would pro- 
tect girls and women, not only in the 
factories but also in their everyday 
life. And I should want to have a 
bureau for the protection of children. 
You know, we suffragists think really 
more about the children than any- 
thing else. Such a bureau would pro- 
vide for the protection of both girls 
and boys in the city and would safe- 
guard them from evil in every way. 
“Tf I were mayor I should try to 
see to it that the domination of the 
city by the Boston Elevated railway 
was stopped once and for all. I be- 
lieve the city should own its own 
trolley lines, anyway. 
“ Another thing that I should like to 
see carried through if I were mayor 
is a municipal theatre. It would be so 
much better than making all this fuss 
about the plays in the other theatres 
if Boston only had a playhouse which 
would be run for the enjoyment and 
the education of the people. Jt ought 
to be beautiful and artistic and it 
should give the public the very best. 
I should like to see a theatre give 
plays for children. 
“A municipal theatre ought not 
only to be good in itself, but it ought 
also to raise the standard of the other 
theatres. 
“And then I should see that the 
streets were put in better condition. 
Put women in control of our munici- 
pal house-keeping and see the im- 
provement. I also think that there 
is room for improvement in the 
way our dispensaries are managed. 
They should all be under stricter and 
more careful supervision of the city 
health authorities.” 
Wortpiy ADVICE 
“FEquivocal advice, that,’ said Sen- 
ator Hitchcock, in a tariff argument. 
“Such advice can be taken in two 
ways. It’s like the advice of Rown- 
dar. 
“A youth told Rowndar that he was 
passionately in love with a parlor 
maid eleven years his senior. 
“«She’s all the world to me,’ said 
the youth. ‘What would you advise 
me to do?” 
“See a little more of the world, 
old chap,’ Rowndar replied.” — Bos- 
ton Globe.
