EFFECT NOT DISTURBING.
Peace of Home Not Impaired by
Woman Suffrage, Says Mrs. Harper.

That the smooth conduct of the home
would not be affected by allowing women
to vote, was maintained by Mrs. Ida
Hustled Harper Of New York, who spoke
yesterday before a meeting of women at
the residence Of Mrs. Arthur j. Parsons,
18th and r streets northwest. Mrs.
Harper said that women would vote for
a candidate more on account Of his moral
standing than for his party affiliations.
She also said that where suffrage for
women has been obtained the men are
satisfied with the results.
Mrs. Harper will lecture next Friday
morning at the home of Mrs. ]. B. Hem
derson, 18th street and Florida avenue.
She also expects to attend the coming

Descended From Clergymen.

Laurence Washington grandson of the
Laurence OF Sulgrave. died in 1916 and
also is buried, here. Two Of his sons,
John and Laurence, became. respectively.
Sir John Washington. knight Of Thrap-
ston. and Rev.. Laurence Washington.
Rector Of Purieigh. Essex. whose eldest
son. John, emigrated to America in 1867,
and was the great-grandfather Of George
Washington. the President.
1t is believed that the original design
OF the American flag came from the stars
and stripes of the Washington arms, and
in the flag. as in the original arms. the
stars signify divine influence. guiding the
bearer in the right way. while the bars
denote one who sets the bar OF con-
science and religion against wicked temp
tations and evil desires. The colors. red
and white, seem to follow also. the red
meaning military bravery and fortitude
the white, peace and sincerity.
So II seems that the arms Of the father
Of the country are incorporated in his
country's flag.
