consulted will lead women to more Sc.

Colorado Has Sanest, Most Humane
Laws Relating to the Child.
If the man who asks what woman
will do with the vote really wants to
Judge the future by the past he can
see that she has helped make the state
of Colorado what it is. The interpar-
.liamentary union. an organization
which meets in various European coun
tries for the study and comparison OF
legislation in all civilized countries
and whose members are famous jurists
sent as delegates to these congresses
said, Colorado has the sanest. the
most humane. the most progressive. the
most scientific laws relating to the
child to DE found on any statute books
Of the world"
So one of the things that woman will
do with the vote will be TO perfect her
old, immemorial work of looking after
the children.
