THE LONELY

Her Species Will Die Out After the In

ave have intercollegiate water polo
matches, and we had the very first in

riding. We have made an arrangement
by which a girl can hire horse, with
riding instruction. for 81 cents an
hour eight two-hour rides for SO IS.
The active and daring ones play polo or
some other lively game. The quiet ones
just ride"
The charm of this recreation is its
inexpensiveness. Suppose a girl wants
to have the horseback riding. She pays
her $1025 for eight rides, and is
member; there is no other fee. She
can go once a week. The beginners go
Thursday evening and the experienced
riders Friday evenings. A MILDLY blouse
and boomers are the only habit she re-
quires.
Directing this work means hard ef-
fort on the part Of Miss Schroeder and
her committee, Miss Daphne Imbrie
and Miss Elsa Alsberg.

Her Task Herculean.
She was appointed examining physi-
clan of the Workhouse two months ago
by DR.. Katharine B. Davis, task
which Miss Edelson declares to be
herculean and impossible of complete
accomplishment, for the number OF

nerson to examine as completely as she
might.

"My chosen work in the event of in
vasion would be to gather the oh sdren
together and care for them.
1--WE women OF England, sufrragists
and all, believe that this war must be
fought out. 1t might have been pre-
vented at the outset. Five intelligent
persons, sitting down together and dis
cussing it calmly, could have arbi-
trated the differences at the bottom of
the conflict That is what will be done
when women have equal political
rights with men. Instead Of sending
out soldiers to be cut up the nations
will sit down and reason together. But
since the war is being waged, English
women want their country to battle on
until something definite is settled.
Peace concluded now would be false
peace. And If the war needs me to
fight will fight"
Miss Kcnney explained carefully
just why the militant sufrragists had
dropped their own particular warfare
till Englands conflict should be
settled.
Called a Suspension. Not Truce.
1--WE have called suspension, not
a truce" she said. ave do not use the
word truce or amnesty for they
might indicate that we would confer
with our opponents, and that We will
never do. We confer among ourselves.
We have called a suspension of our
activities against the government be-
cause we believe it is the right thing
to do. Some have said we did it in
Difference to public opinion. We don't
consider public opinion. We are public
opinion. We do what we think is
right, regardless of any one.
However, the idea OF suspending
our mild and merciful militantism
while the bloody militantism of the
war goes on is not so bad, aside from
its justice. People will notice the
difference in the methods when we
start in again. For we shall surely re-
sumo if the politicians don't give US
the vote when the war ends"
But Miss Kenney doesn't believe the
politicians will refuse this little favor

conference of the Congressional Union

81 love to speak here" she said.
"Your American audiences are so quiet,
so attentive their faces are so inquir-
ing. There is always hope when the
people are inquiring. Quiet audiences
are a novelty to me, for we don't have
them in England. The people shout
questions at us, and altogether meet

thing"
Annie Kenney shares with Mrs.
Pankhurst the distinction of having

the horrors of forcible feeding. She
has been a hunger striker many times
She was arrested and imprisoned five
times before the "cat and mouse act"
came in force, and under that measure
was in prison seven times. The last
Imprisonment was in December, 1918,
when she started thirst strike and
held out in it eight days, or until the
authorities released her.
