But it would be a foolish rophet who drew any long-term conclusions from his particular circumstance. ; .;, Admittedly it may be more than a coincidence hat all three finished as losers. Perhaps there is ome general feeling at the moment that men can o the job better. But if anyone thinks the day will ; ome when women are out of Canadian politics for cod, lie should go to a doctor for a good examina- Ion above the neck. I;- If there is any kind of generalization to offer, must be that women are on the way in, not out t is not so many years ago that any female discussion of polities was considered a vulgarity, and a oman who made her way into a political meeting ; -ould have been better advised for the sake of her T eputalion to go out and get drunk. " Since then tremendous things have happened, s revolutionary as the mechanical age. Not only as woman obtained the vote but she has put herself , t the receiving end of it. Like the automobile which amp along about the same time, the woman in lolitics is here to stay and to multiply. Although her future seems assured in spite of Reappointments (in the last federal election all 14 women who ran were defeated), her approach will probably always be different from that of the male counterpart. As Mary Lowery Ross observes: "The Itendency of men and women seems to be to work .lifferent sides of the political street. From the ' nasculine point of view, politics can be an end in -hemselves, and often a delightful one. The feminine position on the other hand is to regard polities s a dedicated means to an end."
