right Of suffrage no be worth using
My husband said he always felt in
dignant when / came out OF that
booth, after being allowed TO vote for
school officers only, and he advised
me to wait till could vote the whole

you would do If man owed you
$4,000 and offered you 5000.
Wouldn't you take what you could
get, and then work for moreg' 'Oh,
yes, he said, You have the logic of
it, but l have the sentiment
"It is certainty the duty Of wo-
nen, mothers and possible mpthers,
to stand by the public schools. You
want to know who are the teachers,
and who are the school committee.
You want to see that the children
are taught kindness, cleanliness and
courtesy School suffrage is mora
measure, and no wonan should hold
herself excused from voting"
In Omaha, at the recent election
5000 women cast their ballots fol
school officers. Nearly 10000 women
voted for the school board in Boston
last year, and registration Of women
for the coming school election in that
