 The appearance of Mrs. Helen King Robinson fin Bridgeport on Thursday evening of this week is especially in teresting making one step further in inc advancement of women.
 It is rare for Bridgeport hearers to be presented with a woman who can speak to them as an elected law maker.
 As q fact, Mrs. Robinson appears to be a most eligible person, cultivated, clever sincere and above all, Sane. She makes clear some points that worry anti -suffragists. such, for in stance as the absence in some of the suffrage states of good laws regulat- ing working women's hours of toiI.
