the women have the school franchise.
We had TO 90 10 the schoolhouse TO vote.

Since the women became interested IN
politics and went TO vote there has been
school the next day in a sweet clean
room. and the polling place is just as de-
cent as the church And yet they say tne
polls aren't fit for women"
