women. Judge Lindsey and Miss

power of women in politics-and
proof OF the fact that women think
for themselves and are not afraid to
break away from party lines.
All phases of public life in Colorado
will be discussed by the convention,
but especially those relating to
philanthropic, educational and co..

state. Forestry is not neglected, and
the ladies will receive first-hand in
formation upon reclamation from Mr..
Blanchard of the United States re-

public questions. Much time will be

the men to the task of fitting thsm-

W0MAN'S PART IN
WORLDS PROGRESS
Program of Colorado Federation of Wo-
mans Clubs Covers Multitude
of Live Topics

The National Irrigation congr ess
will not be the only important gather
ing in Colorado during the week OF
September 26. OF equal interest to
the women of the stats will be the
sixteenth annual convention OF the
Colorado Federation of Women's clubs
which will meet in Canon City on
September 27 and continue through
out tha remainder of the week.
Men have been accustomed to look
upon themselves for so many centu-
ries as the lords of creation and to
consider women's doings as of little
account from a political or economic
standpoint, that undoubt edly many of
them would be greatly surprised to
find themselves in a convention such
as that which will be held in Canon
City next week. Indeed. without a
doubt many of them would find them
selves beyond their depth.
The convention Of the Colorado Fed
Grafton of Women's clubs is not a
gathering for the exchange OF neigh-
borhood gossip. Ihe women VINO Will
meet in Canon City have serious ends
in view. A mere glance at the pro-
gram shows the wide range Of topics
discussed. and proves how carefully
the women are training themselves
in those duties of government which
this state confers upon them equally
with men.
Judge Ben B. Lindsey will speak,
his usbject being "Woman's Suffrage
and the Beast" The Judge owes his
office to the women of Denver, with
out whose cordial support he would
have been unable to establish his ju-
venile court. Miss Ellis Meredith will
give the annual report on state in
stitutions. Miss Mer edith was elected
