an effective force for ten party at the
coming election.

more nearly represent the ideas Of
the present campaign than will one
composed solely Of members Of either
sex. When women vote they will Of
necessity take part in the delibera-
lions which are q part of the election
preltminaries, hence the belief that
women will welcome an opportunity
for joint membership with the men
folks in a Progressive club.
