~ UT Is there an unknown? Some OF Sem

n HARTMAN DANIELS, OF Elections Com
u mittee. No. 1, has pursued a very
unusual course in the selection of a
clerk. He felt that this individual should
be well equipped for the work-a stenogra-

these ladies discuss and the way in which
they handle them show that this new

When women begin to discuss the revision
ofiaws affecting the legal status of women,
ternational court of arbitration, the con-
dition OF Armenia, and various other
mighty subjects supposed to be exclusively
appropriate to the male cerebellum, then
we may know that this type of woman is
