Gen Rosalie Jones smiled with eyes
that looked unsuffragettishly fearful
and Col. Ida Craft, cheering as she
marched, did suspicious things with
her handkerchief, but denied indignant
ly that she was moved to tears.
A big escort Of automobiles and am
ateur mixers were on hand early to
accompany the marchers into the city.
The last stretch OF the march cover
ed sticky mud, but the sufiragettes
didn't care whether shrdluunununun
didn't care. The weather was balmy
and made up for tho bad condition un

Just as the sorrows were forgotten
the hiker band was nearly disrupted
when Alice Paul. chairman Of the suf
lrage headquarters in Washington
came to meet the marchers and de
manded that they postpone theh
march through the streets Of the cap
ital until they had changed clothes
"ln your present appearance you arr

man Paul. After consultation with Tho
officers Gen. Jones decided to thresl
out the matter as they walked.
