Suffrage Netss,

The Canaan Equal Franchise League members called their conRressmen's attention to the congressional hearing for woman suffrage. on March ls, by writing to each senator and representa- tive in congress from Connecticut, a letter, or petition, asking that they at. tend said hearing. These letters were. each one, most courteously replied to by these distinguished gentlemen, and most of them promised to attend the hearing.
 Whatever may be said of the ohivalrS of the past, which carried a glove ,SnA kissed my lady's curl, the women of to. day ask nothing finer from man thar the square deal and acts of simple kind. ness and common courtesy. The women of the Canaan League were grat- flied to note that not one member sf the Senate or House wrote n word against suffrage, while some of them most dis tinctly approved of it.
