in the upkeep of the home as well as
assist in solving some of the sew ing
problems Of the Fargo ladies.
A feature which will be a big factor
in the rescue work is the installation
of a teacher at the home by the board
of education. The girls are nearly all
very young and willing to learn so
that much good may be accomplished
from this action.
The association board met at Ais
to transact business. Routine busi-

ner, DR.. Carpenter, Mrs. f. II. Wilder,

Gearey and Mrs r. M Pollock.
Mrs. HOLSTER was chosen chairman
Of the auditing committee and the
gentlemen of the board were chosen
on the financial committee. Miss
Topping was re-engaged and her re-
port was unanimously approved. A
rising vote of thanks to Miss Topping
and her assistants, Miss Felthammer,
Mrs. Oemig and Mrs. Decker for their
excellent work during the past year
and for the very efficient manner in
which all matters pertaining to the
home have been carried out.

nual banquet to the board of directors

ing Rev. and Mrs. f. H. Behner, Rev.
and Mrs. j. M. walters, DR.. and Mrs
Savage, DR.. and Mrs. MacGregor, Rev

NO SUFFRAGE AT COLUMBIA.
President Throws Out Votes at Uni
versity Election.

President Butler suppressed the sur
fragette movement at Columbia uni-
versity when he ordered the ballots
cast by girls from Barnard and Teach
ers college to be thrown out In count
ing the vote for members of the stu
dent board OF representatives, which
was elected last week.
About fifty girls presented them
selves at the polls on Thursday and
demanded the right to vote. The poll
clerk had never heard of a Barnard
girl voting in a Columbia election.
They waved a copy OF the constitu-
tion Of the board In his face and
showed him the clause: During The
last week in April there shall be held
a general election, open to the entire
student body OF the university, at
which six members Of the board shall
be elected Then the poll clerk ac-
| cepted the ballots under protest.
Some Of the students protested to
Prof. William Addison Hervey, regis
trar Of the university, who was ON
cially in charge Of the election. He
said that he saw no way out OF the
matter but to let the girls votes
stand, as the constitution OF the board
| clearly gave them the right to vote
He promised to lay the matter be-
fore President Butler.
President Butler quickly came I'd
the conclusion that the marked bal
lots ought to be thrown out.
