Answer to Justice "In Defense of Small
 Bow"

l Mir. Editor: Referring to the article 1 in Wednesday mornings issue of The Bulletin signed by Justice, in which the writer deplores the fact that 8 1 small boy was allowed to distribute some anti Suffra giSt literature at the close of the suffragist meeting held in the town hall last Monday evening, and that we are without curfew law, which would have compelled the small boy to se at home, abed and asleep. Also the article in The Bulletin of Tuesday, the 16th, regarding the suf- tragist meeting of the night before, 1t states that the meeting was disturbed several times by boy going in and out of the hall distributing circulars.
 Suffra agists should not at any time stoop to prevaricate or distort the facts of any case, as it only Weakens their position.
 The true facts in this case are that the distributing of the circulars was undertaken by the boy with the con- sent of his parents. He was accom- panied to the meeting by his father and sat in the rear of the hall and listened attentIyely to the speakers, only going into the corridor once to pass circulars to some persons who were leaving to catch the 10 o'clock car.
 After Miss WinsloW, the last speak, CT, Was through, this boy, the socalled disturbing element of the meeting, proceeded to the lower hall and quiet ly passed. to all who would take them, some of the anti literature.
 Some of the suffragist received them with smiles, others with cold dis dain, and still others with sneerS, throwing them to the floor. One ap- parently prominent suffragist asked the boy if he could not be bought off, and suggested that they might want similar work performed for them.
 The only, laborious work was the gathering up of the crumpled circulars which had been scattered around the corridor. The distribution of them be- ing CnaraC terized by the boy as great fun" Anyone would infer from Jus tice's remarks this very small boy was forced to labor, but the fact is he has a good home, better than the aver age is always we'll dressed, attends scnool regularly, stands near or at the head of his class, and has never been out of an evening unless accompanied by one of his parents or an adult friend.
 If q curfew law were in force it could not in any way apply to the child mentioned. but would no doubt lessen the attendance at some of the motion pictures
 suffice il to say that the impress sion conveyed by the suffrag gist speak CTS and leaders upon this boy and oth- CTS present was wholly obiiter2red by position taken by Justice was uncalled for. uniusrlfahle and totally foreign to the subjects under discussion that evening.
