Hi HUH" he said, as he settled into his Easy chair after dinner,
~ 80 the sufragids have been around, have they?"
Did I lay that circular Jthere?' asked Mary Ellen innocently. Some
women called here today and left it."
81 hope you won't get any of those fool notions Into your head" said
Mr. Mary Ellen. Il don't want you joining the shriektng siterhood. and
going to jail, an doing stunts like that"
81 don't think 1 would much like going to Jail. But don't believe any
American sufragists will ever go to jail American men are to chiyalrous
to permit anything like that If such a thing did happen, the men wonTd

you'd do if anybody tried to put m e in jail"
That's right" agreed Mr. Mary Ellen. What I'd do would be aplenty"
But I don't see" went on Mary Ellen, "why women shouldn't be u to

Then Mary Ellen desbted for a time.
A few days later, she said, That Mrs. BroomaI, whom you admire SO

YES And the club she belongs to is going to give a suffrage play. l

Kind of dull, don't you thnk?"

to be SO narrow and bigoted as not to be willing to hear the other side"

Maybe I haven't brains enough to understand it"
HUH" interrupted Mr.. Mary Ellen. 81 guess you have as good brains
