Parkville, Hartford ad.-The third quar-
sionary Society of Great Falls Circuit met at
Hiss Church on the Goth of June and was
called to order by the vice-president, Mrs.
Winks. The opening prayer was by the pas
tor, Rev. f. r. Isaac, following which was the
routine business of the society, including the
reading of reports from all the churches of the
circuit. These were received with much Salts
faction and showed the good work the women
are doing in this noble cause.
The attendance was large, the church being
well filled with as fine looking and elegant
body of ladies as could be seen anywhere to
discharge the duties in hand. They transacted
their business in businesslike manner and
was not little surprised at the tact and skill
with which the affsirs of the society were
handled and l came to the conclusion that
there were women in that assembly who were
capable of running our public affairs as WELL
If not better, than many men who are selected
to do so. 1t is an outrage that women like
these are excluded from the ballot when every
loafer, who never paid cent in taxes in his
life and never will, is given that privilege and
their votes often control our county and State
affairs. Perhaps the day is coming when this
great wrong will be righted. There can be no
doubt that if this sex was at the head of some
of our financial institutions they would be
better conducted than they are and there would
be fewer robberies and defalcations.
About O'Clock the assemblage was invited
to lunch. say lun CHI but it was not that. It
was a most bountiful dinner and the tables
fairly grOaned under the supply of things that
would have tempted the appetite of anyone.
About 200 persons were fed and there was plen-
ty to spare.
This shows how the ladies of Hiss appoint
ment do things. There is no end to their bounty
and hospitality. About dozen of them wait
ed on the tables and they did the work as only
they know how. The visitors departed for
their homes highly pleased with their expert
ences of the day. T. G.
