Members Of tho Equal surra &c
League of Virginia arc particularly in
tereStcd in news from kentucky which
relates to the fact that The women Of
the Episcopal Diocese of that state are
demanding that they be admitted 10
full rights with Iaymen Of the church
in the Diocesan Council. They have
selected Miss Laura Clay Of licking
ton, president of the Kentucky Equal
Rights Association and auditor OF the
National Woman Suffrage Association,
to lead the campaign.
Miss Clay, who is Il sister OF Mrs. s.
Dabney Crenshaw. of Richmond. took
an active part in the organiza tion OF
the Virginia league some months ago
on the occasion of hor visit to this
city. Her talks TO the league showed
that she had intimate knowledge OF
plans and scope and objects, and her
advice was eagerly sought when it
came to dealing With important mat
tiers affecting the welfare of the asso-
cia ton.
IIclpcd to Form League Hero.
Indeed. II might be said tina, Miss
Clay was largely responsible for the
great interest aroused in the suffrage
question when 1t was first taken up ac-
lively hS the women of Richmond.
The movement In Kentucky was re-
GENTLY discussed in Lexington. when
Miss Clay made a speech and obtained
for the women OF the diosese a
promise from Bishop Lewis ". Burton
that their petition for equal rights
would have full and free hearing he
fore the council when it meets 1T
Frankfort. The women declare that
they pay dues and pew rent and arc at
PENDANTS at service the same as men,
and should have the same rights. Miss
Clay. as president of The kentucky
Equal Rights Association, has Won the
Endorsement Of the Kentucky Fedora
tion of Labor. which has just closed its
annual session, for an amendment to
the State Constitution by which women
arc to be granted suffrage in X en-
lucky.
B1T Plans In virgins.
1t is pretty we'll understood in Rich
mond that the Equal Suffrage league
of Virginia will have rcprese ntativcs
appear before the General Assem- Di y
next year to ask for the adoption or
laws which will grant the women some
OF the rights they have been seeking.
Exactly what they want has not been
explained in detail. although lawyers
are at work preparing bills to lie pre-
scented In both houses. In the mean
time, number of prominent speakers
viii be brought to Virginia to clab-
crate on Inc subject. One of the most
active members Of the league said yes
tcrday that the women of Virginia are
not demanding the right to vote in pri-
mary elections, the Legislature not
being clothed with power 10 bring
about that startling innovation.
But there arc rights which can be
granted us under the Constitution :
she said. and our lawyers will be pre-
pared to fight for laws which can End
which think will be enacted. We are
not seeking tho impossible, but tho
women OF Virginia arc In a position to
force tho passage Of laws for the
amelioration OF the human race and
our Sex III particular"

AN EXCELLENT INSTITUTION

\ member of the Star force had the
pleasure a week ago of visit TO St.
Joseph's Academy at LorettO in Duval
county, and an opportunity of seeing
the teachers and pupils of this excellent
school at work.
St Joseph's Academy is a convent
school, located in the high pine land
fourteen miles southeast of Jackson
Vile 1t is right on the new autOmO
bile highway being built from the me-
tropOlis to St. Augustine, and is also
connected with the outside world by
telephone Its situation makes it an
ideal place for the training Of boys.
High, dry and healthy, it is also remov
ed from the temptation of cities, while
their necessities and conyeniences are
in easy reach.
1t was a pleasure to watch the teach
ers and their pupils at their work. In
the faculty of developing a child's best
traits for study, the Catholic sisterhood
has never been excelled. They are spe-
cially trained for tit is their life
work, and it seldom fails to show the
best results.
The hours of study seem rather long
from a. m. to 6 p. m, but there are
three long recesses in that time. The
we'll as work and see that they never
carry it to excess. One excellent fea
ture of each recess is the serving of a
substantial lunch, which keeps the lit
tie fellows up to their best form.
1t was pleasant day, but not warm
one; nevertheless at the afternoon re-
cess, all the boys who wished to went
in the big swimming pool And such
gu m thew They
home in the clear, sulpher water swim
ming and diving like young mermen.
The Star man looked all over the
school School rooms, dormitories.
dining rooms and kitchen-everythin g
was neat, convenient and comforta Bile.
The big dormitories have light and VEN
tilation on every side and their long
rows of spotlessly clean, comfortable
cots looked mighty good. Every boy
has his own bed and washstand, and
couldn't be more carefully looked after
in his own home.
There are boys at Loretto from every
part of the state, and they are all
smart, robust youngsters. a look over
them is the highest recommendation
| the school can have.
Loretto is something of an educa-
| tional center Beside the big convent
school, there are two public schools
one for white and one for colored child
renal taught by the sisters of st.
Joseph. The school authorities of Du-
val county evidently appreciate the ed
vocational ability of the nuns, and all
| the people of the neighborhood, white
and black, Protestant as well as Cath
Ollie, praise their work and highly es-
| TEEN them.
