| Architect Ragland is preparing
plans for the addition to the Metho-
dist church. 1t will provide for a
large dining room and kitchen in the
basement. On the main floor will be
eight Sunday school rooms and a good
sized assembly room. The church did
not want to incur any debt and want
ed $4,000 in good subscriptions before
beginning work. AS $500 is provided
for the building committee feel sure
the entire amount will be secured.
The Sunday school has an enrolment
of 300, average attendance $50.
| After the first of January the reg
istration books will be open to wo-
men. Let every woman register,
even those who think they don't want
to vote, for there are important is
sues rising continually which involve
the best interests of the home and
community. Remember the doors of
evil work while we sleep. In matters
of this kind we make no distinction
| between men and women. Today to
Isecure best results in city government
we must have the common service OF
both men and women. Politics is
only housekeeping on a big scale. The
government is in a muddle because il
has been trying to keep house with
out the women. So far from wo-
mans ambition leading her to attempt
to act the man, she needs all encour-
agement she can receive by the re-
moval Of obstacles from her path In
order that she may become the true
and helpful woman. Women with
earnest hearts and level heads are
ready for the work. They do not
seek to rival or antagonize men, but
to work with them. Often they car
and will take up reforms of evils
which men regard as too inevitable
to NEEDLE with. Often they can and
will lend assistance when men are toe
busy to see that it is needed. II
comes natural for women to work fo1
the betterment of the home the city
and the race, and now that we have
the power to vote let us turn our at
tention to the study of municipal and
legislative matters that we may be
able to use this power with intelli-
gent discretion so as to be helpful in
all welfare efforts.
After nearly three years in the
public rest room work, the main Of
flee of which is to bring into closer
relationship the business men and
their patrons, we find we have entire
ly outgrown our present quarters. II
has become necessary to acquire a
site and build a permanent home or
the business basis of an income
bearing property After careful and
thoughtful consideration we have
finally united on a site and believe
that it will eventually bring in good
returns as a financial investment. AS
a stock company we aim to place the
shares at $40 so that every one may
have an interest in building thii
monument to the honor of our pro-
gressive up to date community.
