MUSSOLINI'S TEN COMMANDMENTS
Continued from Page.6
No woman ever could open a lawsuit for breach of promise or to defend her rights, for promises made to women had no legal value, and women had no legal rights.
Now, added to these, comes the thing always so frightful so in- explicable to women-war. And the ten "commandments" by which she is to live during the war.
We are bearing war talk again. and we shall have another war. And perhaps another still, after that.
But sooner or later what women feel about it will make its impression; indeed, it is making lits impression now.
Binnie Barnes, the Uniterun” star, plays the leading feminine role in "One Exciting Adventure." which will be shown at the Queen's Theatre to-morrow.
