Excerpt from Woman and Her Possibilities: An Address to the Women's Non-Party Political Association, and the League of Liberal Christian Women, of South Australia Some people are apathetic on the woman ques tion. They have no feeling that the time is in any way out of joint. If, when they open their eyes for a moment as they turn in their noonday sleep, they should see that things now are different from even our own grandmothers' days, they accept this as evidence of a degeneracy that is deplorable. Other people feel the unsatisfactoriness, the irk someness, the unfairness of it all, and protest vehemently against conditions that are beginning to be insufferable. But they make no attempt to find what is wrong at the heart of things; much less do they care to set about helping to mend matters. With some people, the dear delight of putting wrong things right is not to be compared with the sweet satisfaction of having them as a perennial subject of complaint, to be used as a safety-valve to let off temper and discontent from any and every cause arising. Other people, again, agitate for reform, which means for them legisla tive change in some particular, the passing of some parliamentary measure which may occasion more mischief than the condition it is meant to cure. Some, however, are beginning to deal with the whole question radically, by studying human nature, human institutions, systems of legislation, religions, civilizations, and social movements. And the most hopeful feature of the time is that this class of people includes both men and women. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
