ROOSEVELT FAVORS
SUFFRAGE'TEPIDLY'
Colonel Discusses Woman's
Rights and Says There Are
j • More Important Things
—
He Declares Women Should Be
Good Mothers and Men
Strong and Decent
Continued From Peace IT
No-man is worth his salt who didn't
think deeply of woman's rights"—
other pause— 'and that no woman Is
worth her salt who doesn't think a
thousand times more deeply of the
rights and duties of her home.
"Personally, I'm very tepidly in favor
of woman's rights. I have voted for
equal suffrage whenever the occasion
has arisen to exercise a ballot upon the
matter. I have studied the subject, and
I have studied its effect in the states In
which it is in. use, and I have studied
the condition of women in these states
and adjacent ones. But I never have
been able to take very much Interest in
the question, because It seems to me It
lis so Infinitely less important than in
' numerable other questions which are
worthy of our thought and effort.
"I don't believe that much of the
harm which its opponents say will re
sult from it would actually occur or
that half of 1 per cent of the good
! which, its advocates claim. I don't
; think that the question is one thou-
Vsandth or one millionth as Important
: as keeping, and where necessary reviv
: ing, among women the idea that their
'great work must be in the home. A
, good woman must be now, as in the
' past, a good wife, a good mother, and
able to tranl up healthy children.
"As' for the menthere is no man
'• with whom I am in less of sympathy
j than one of the type who are in favor
j of women doing their home duties, but
who don't do their own. A man isn't
flt- to exercise the right of suffrage
: himself if he Isn't decent and doesn't
. occupy a proper position in his home.
The home and family life are at the
foundation of our government. Let a
man do his duty first at homo and then
he is fit to take part in the direction of
-.community affairs."
LECTURE OX HOME DUTIES
The whole lecture was upon the
theme of high Ideals in the perform
ance of home duties and devotion to
decency in personal living as well as
in affairs of government. The colonel
explained, however, that he had no in
tention of decrying wholesome pleasure
and enjoyment when he pleaded for
close application to the every day, hum-
Urum duties of life, but he particularly
emphasized the kind of pleasure and
enjoyment that should be adopted. That
was where the tips to bridge players
came in.
"I don't ask you to put duty in place
of pleasure, but to put it ahead of
pleasure," he said. "Don't devote a
life to pleasure. Life itself will turn
to Dead sea fruit In your mouth If
you give all your attention to pleas
ure, especially to vapid pleasure.
Pleasure must be the complement of
duty instead of the essential in life.
"Of course, If you have the pure
bridge club type of mind I can't ex
pect to appeal to you. If unlimited
bridge throughout the span of your
earthly career represents your ideal of
Jife I can't appeal to you. But if you
have the desire for higher things I
think I can show you that the greatest
Joy in life 'comes from the perform
ance of duty. I think it is far more
important. that we should consider our
duty than our rights."
Colonel Roosevelt's audience was the
largest he has addressed since coming
to the bay cities, and that in spite of
the fact that the university campus
offered a counter attraction in form
-of the first baseball game of the inter
collegiate series. The crowd that lis
tened to his Charter day address and
the crowd that heard his first Earl
lecture Thursday were both outnum
bered by the throng of yesterday. Half
an hour before time to appear all but
a few seats had been taken, and, when
the gates were opened to the crowd
outside, the ..ding room was filled
almost instantly.
REPLIES TO CRITICISM
"If this was the first of these lec
tures." said the speaker, "I would feel
like apologizing for having brought you
here under false pretenses, but you
came with your eyes open and I haven't
the slightest sympathy for you. I spoke
yesterday of realizable ideals and ap
plied ethics, and I flrst want to answer
a criticism on a point that I thought so
obvious that possibly I did not put
enough stress on it. Several who spoke
to me seemed to believe that in urging
realizable ideals I was forgetting high
ideals. That is not at all what I mean.
I don't think that any ideal is high un
less it Is at least partially realizable.
I want to preach not against high
Ideals, but against wrong ideals, and I
do not Imply any willingness to lower
our ideals. No ideal can be right for
this world if it isn't right to be used in
this world. I only ask that those who
preach shall preach a doctrine that can
be lived up to.
"Now the flrst place where 1 desire to
see any man or woman realize his or
her ideals is in connection with those
most intimately concerned with his or
her life. The first place that ideals
should be realized should be la a man's
own home. Everything In our civiliza
tion rests on the home, and all develop
ment rests on private character. "No
nation can go onward and upward un
less it Is based on decent individual
character. Unless every American is a
pretty good fellow and his wife is a
better fellow, it will be Impossible for
this nation to rise. The first thing to
realize Is the ideal that will make of a
man a 'good son and a good husband
and of a woman a good daughter, wife
and mother.
MEX WHO ARE \OT MEN
"We all know the type of man fre
quently found at crossroads groceries,
who in his abundant leisure explains
how humanity could be benefited and
how the nation should be run, and wiio
whiles away his own time while his
wife takes. in washing. We also know
the type of man in our government who
is possessed of the loftiest Ideals but
whose family breathes easier when he
its away from the house.7, ".£
"Disregarding the exceptional cases
and speaking normally, no man can be
of service, to the state or amount to
anything in the way of usefulness to
the community at large unless he is
decent"* in the close .relations of^llfe.
No atones for the lack of sound
family life? ?If divorces grow greatly
in any community you can set it down
as an unquestioned" fact that there is
something rotten in that community,
that there Is some evil at work that
must be put down, and overcome, or
there will . follow widespread disaster,
"If a man' practices a different code
of morality from that which he de
mands that" his wife 'shall follow there
Is no civic matter to which he can arise
worthily. '.I? don't mean that I like
mollycoddles. 7 I admire ? a man, but ■ I
abhor* the creature who uses the old
saying, 'a jnan" must be a, man," to ex
cuse being vile and vicious. Be ready
to tight I!"necessary, but be decent. -If
Former , Berkeley Mayor

Thomas Rickard, prominent Berkeley engineer who died suddenly at his
Bancroft way home Friday night.
you are willing enough to fight nobody
will complain about your being vir
tuous.
VIRTUOUS -___*« MUST BE STROM"
"If you accept the weak man as the
type of the decent man you will pro
mote the spirit in the young man to
confuse weakness and virtue. My point
is that the virtuous man should be a
strong man. Let us eradicate the mis
conception that being virtuous some-j
how means being weak. I want to see
in our life, including our politics, the •
decent man able to take care of himself ;
so that when the Indecent man hus- i
tles him he can hold his own and won't ;
be hustled soon again. I want to see '
the decent man realize that he must
be strong as well as decent.
"There are a good many types of men
tharzl don't like, and prominent among
them I would put the timid good, the
weak good man afraid. I would like to
see it taught from the pulpit that it is
not enough to be good, but necessary
to be strong as well.
"Remember that the first duty is to
the home. It is not right that our na
tion should import not only Its art and
Its literature, but even its babies. Look
at the census returns of 1910 and you
will see that this country is traveling
the path that France has long been
traveling, and you will realize that two
thirds of our increase in population is
from immigration, and not from babies
born here. We need young Americans
to keep up the- ideals and traditions of
our old stock. AH thought*, given to the
training of children is wasted thought
If there isn't going to be a next genera
tion to train. Our first great duty to
the nation is to preserve our own blood.
This will not be performed unless we
have a healthy family life and unless
people realize that no form of pleasure
or enjoyment can equal the pleasure
and enjoyment in their own homes that
comes from the love of one man and
one woman for each other and for their
children.
URGES RAISING OF FAMILIES \
"Unless you believe that the average
man and the average woman shouldNbe
married and have healthy children, then
it is a waste of my time to come before
you and a waste of your time to be
here. If you don't believe that your
stock should be kept up you are not a
good American, and I for one won't
mourn your extinction. I would rather
welcome any race that comes to take
your place, for you are not flt to cumber
the ground. Now. I have got by the
most unpleasant part and can't expect
applause, and I don't care a rap what
you think of me for telling you.
"Here in this great educational in
stitution let me extend the hand of
sympathy to those teachers who come
into contact with the cuckoo class of
parents, the class who turn all respon
sibility over to the institution 1 for the
training of a child and who think that
for a price, which they generally kick
at as excessive, they can buy a deputy
parent for a child by sending him to an
educational Institution.
"My plea today Is for that form of ap
plied ethics that lies afc-the base of all
good citizenship. We can't have good
citizenship, today unless men and
women do their duty in the home and
we can't have good citizenship in the
future unless our boys and our girls
ars so brought up that they will fulfill
the demands of the*highest type of
American citizenship."
Colonel Roosevelt will deliver the
third Earl lecture at 4 o'clock this aft
ernoon in the Greek theater at Berke
ley, his subject being "The Bible and
the Life of the People." There will be
no seats reserved and the theater will
be open to all. 7
I "C LABOR ATE TEA
£ FOR ROOSEVELTS
Mother and Daughter To Be,
Guests At Many In
formal Affairs
Society will meet Mrs. .Theodore
Roosevelt, wife of the former presi
dent, at an elaborate tea to be given
Monday afternoon by Mrs. Theodore
Roosevelt Jr., at the home of the host
ess iin Pacific avenue. The affair Is
set for 6 o'clock, and society from the
cities around the? bay will be repre
sented at the afternoon reception. The
tea Monday opens the social-enter
tainment of the week for Mrs. Roose
velt and her daughter. Miss Ethel
Roosevelt, for, although the cards are
inscribed simply "to j meet Mrs. Roose
velt,"' the 7 daughter 7 of ; the honored
guest will be a conspicuous figure vat
the affair.
The days following that reception
THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL. SUNDAY; MARCH 26. 1911.
will be crowded with informal enter
tainment for Miss Roosevelt on her
own account. Mrs. Rudolph Spreckels
has sent out cards for a dinner to be
given Thursday evening at her Pacific
avenue home for Miss Roosevelt, a,nd
there will be numerous smaller din
ner parties for the young guest of
honor. It is probable that Miss Mar
guerite Doe will entertain at a dinner
for Miss Roosevelt, but the plans are
not definite for that event of concern
'to the younger set. Miss Doe was a
schoolmate of Miss Roosevelt at the
Cathedral school in Washington, and
| another school friend how in this city
is Miss Esther Denny, formerly of
j Washington.
Miss Denny Is the daughter of
Colonel and Mrs. Frank Denny and was
one of.the social clique at the capital
with the daughter of the former presi
dent. Miss Denny's entertainment for
Miss Roosevelt will be of an informal
sort and-will take the form doubtless
of small teas and motor trips for a
circle of intimates. Miss Eliza Mc
Mullin. who lias lately returned from
a visit with Wr. and Mrs. John Hays
Hammond in Washington, will be one
of the group of girls who will partici
pate in the gayety _*»r the visitor.
Miss Roosevelt will be the honored
guest at the luncheon to be given next
Thursday by Mrs. .Herbert Moffltt at the
home of the hostess In Broadway, and
15 girls have received cards for that
affair. With the succession of motor
trips and informal teas that will be
given for Miss Roosevelt and her for
mal dinner engagements the young vis
itor will enjoy a delightful social
routine this week. r•-.".;.. .:'7j-
Mrs. Roosevelt's program is not less
attractive. The reception tomorrow
afternoon is the largest affair at which
Mrs. Roosevelt will be greeted by local
society, but she will have a round of
dinner parties that will be delightful
and afternoon motor trips on both sides
of the bay. Yesterday afternoon Mrs.
Roosevelt accompanied her husband on
the trip across the bay but did not go
to the Greek theater for the afternoon
lecture. They 'had luncheon in this
city with Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt Jr.,
and took the ferry boat shortly before
3 o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt
parted on the other side of the bay
and while the former lectured in Berke
ley at the Greek theater Mrs. Roosevelt
called on two friends.
The first call was upon Mrs. "Victor
Metcalf, wife of the former secretary
of the navy, who lives In Oakland
After a brief visit with Mrs. Metcalf
Mrs. Roosevelt motored to Berkeley,
where she called upon Mrs. Benjamin
Ide Wheeler. Mrs. Roosevelt returned
to town last evening with her husband
and went to the Roosevelt home for a
brief rest before the evening program.
She and Miss Ethel Roosevelt were
among the limited number of guests at
the informal speech making after the
banquet given by the Harvard club last
evening at the St..'. Francis, where
Theodore .Roosevelt was the honored
guest.

THOMAS RICHARD
FATALLY STRICKEN
Well Known Mining Engineer
Dies of Heart Failure on
Lawn of Home
BERKELEY. March 25.—Seized with
an attack of heart failure, which he at
tempted to relieve by going to the open
window of his bedroom to secure fresh
air, Thomas Rickard, mining •engineer,
clubman and i for four years mayor of
Berkeley, stumbled over the casement
and fell 18 feet to the ground last
night, at his home, 2720 Bancroft way.
He was found dead I this morning by a.
milkman, who half fell over his body.
Death was due to rupture of the
heart, and, in the opinion of Dr. Fran*
Simpson, death must have resulted
when he reached the window after go
ing from his bed, or almost imme
diately after he struck the ground bo
low.
A rosebush was found tightly clutched
In his right hand this morning, the
tatack of heart failure ? having caused
a tension of the muscles shortly after he
struck the ground. Rlckard is known to
have had slight attacks of the disease
which ended his life. . *■'
He spent last evening at the Clare
mont country club with'his wife and
returned home after enjoying several
games of bowling about 10:30 o'clock.
He retired to his sleeping apartment
about" 11 o'clock.
Rickard war' 4 2 years of age and was
a native of France. He came to Berke
ley with his parents more than 30 years :
ago and since that time the family has j
been one of the most prominent in i
Berkeley. His father, Thomas Rickard. j
a mining engineer of note, was manager j
of the Richmond Consolidated mining
company of Eureka, Nev. He died 15
years ago after serving the city as trus
tee for several years.
Rickard was a member of the class of
1887 of the University of California and
was affiliated with the Delta Kappa Ep
sllon fraternity. He took an active part
in college affairs and was editor of the
Berkeleyan from 1183 to 1887. For two
years he was manager«of the paper. He
also served as editor of the Blue and
Gold, the junior annual, which was
printed in 1886.
After receiving his degree from the
college of mining he lived for a short j
time in Eureka. Nev., but returned in a j
year to San Francisco to be a member of
the firm of Parke, Lacey & Co., sell
ers of mining machinery. In 1901 he
became associated with J. O. Harron
and with him bought out the older firm |
to establish the firm of Harron, Rickard
& McCone, of which he was vice presi
dent.
He served a.s trustee of Berkeley from
1901 to 1907, was elected president of j
the board in 1903 and continued to be
ex-offlcio mayor of the city until his
resignation on account of business in
1907. ' *
He was a member of many clubs and
fraternal organizations. He was affili
ated with the Bohemian club of San i
Francisco and was to have rendered |
several solo at the Jinks held tonight. I
He was a member of the Knights Ter- '
plar and Oakland lodge of Elks. Be- j
sides the Bohemian club he was a mem- i
ber of the Union League club of San
Francisco, the Merchants' association of
that city and the Athenian and Clare
mont country clubs of Oakland..
Besides his wife and children, he is
survived by a, brother, Edgar, Rickard,
and a cousin^ T. A. Rickard, both of i
whom are interested in the Mining and
Scientific Press, now published in Lon
don. ■ ■ "<-'"•'-'- :
The funeral will be held Monday at
11 o'clock from the Oakland crematory.

As Quickly as Water
Dissolves Sugar
About the Time It Takes For a
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet to Work
On the Food and Bring Belief. '
TRIAL'PACKAGE SENT FREE
There Is no long wait between the
time you take a Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablet and the feeling of relief it will
bring to an overloaded stomach. It
gets busy In a jiffy and quickly sets
things to rights in that tired and dis
ordered stomach. It goes right at the
work of digesting the food it finds
lodged there and in no time at all has
things on the move— the gases cease
forming, the breath is sweetened, the |
coating on the tongue disappears and
you are no longer conscious that you
even have a stomach.
That is one of the chief recommenda
tions for Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets—
that they don't take forever to accom
plish the purpose for which you need
them.. It, is Just as if you put an ex
tra stomach or two to work when
yours needed help. You can't continu
ally overload your stomach and expect
it to always smile. , It is going to get
rebellious and sulky after a while and
refuse to go on being • driven to do
double work. You must rest it occa
sionally by starving and thereby
weakening yourself physically—but by
using a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet to
do the work of. digesting your -food.
* These tablets contain all the active
i elements of the natural stomach Juices
and will alone and unaided digest food
Just the same as the gastric Juices.
And nothing could be more harmless
than these tablets. They do not affect
the system in any way—do not cure
any ailment except as they digest food.
Use them freely.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
