PORTLAND, Me-. Jan. Sit seems as
stired that the two women elected as
members of the board of overseers OF the
moor. Mrs Clark H. Barker and mrs
George F. French, whose election was de-
clared illegal, will finish out their terms
of office regardless of the fact Inc
overseers were at first bitterly opposed
to the election of women on this board
but the new woman officers nave de-
nonstrated their abilities and usefulness
10 such degree that it seems now TO De
the desire of the male overseers TO nave
them continue on the board. The propo-
sition of the Associated charities 10 turn
over the care of the outside poor IN Port
land to that organization has peeh ue-
clared Illegal and the overseers Will con-
tinue to handle this department through
their own secretary.
