A large number of prominent Will
mington women gathered at Brookwood
Farm, Mrs. Henry b. Thompson's coun-
try place, yesterday morning, to meet
Mrs. George 2. White, of Philadelphia,
and Mrs. Oliphant, of Trenton, and to
hear from them of the stand taken
against suffrage by women in Pennsyl-
vania and New Jersey.
Mrs Henry b. Thompson and Mrs.
Preston Lea received the guests and the
house was decorated with red roses in
honor OF the occasion.
Mrs. Lea, as chairman, called the
meeting to order She said that many
women in Delaware felt that the time
had not come for woman suffrage, ana
would like to express themselves as sat
isfed with the present form of state
government. She introduced Mrs. George
p. White, president OF the board OF
managers OF the West Philadelphia
Homeopathic Hospital, whose articles
against suffrage are widely known.
Mrs. White said in part; "The suf
fragists always point with pride to Col
orado. 1t has good laws, but the New
England States have Just as good, made
UY Nills AOl0AuNU Ndu 10 iNll ull lnt
United States for protection; and two
foreign nations had to appeal TO the
United States government for protection
of their citizens in Colorado"
Mrs. Lea then introduced Mrs. Oil
plant, who had done so much against
suffrage in New Jersey.
Mrs. Oliphant spoke of the New
Jersey organization, begun by Mrs
Alexander f. Jameson, which in q
year had collected 5000 names, 81
per cent of whom were working wo-
men, and all over twenty-one. Now
there are p branch organization
through the State and Mrs. Jameson
expects to have a membership of 25
600 before the voters of the Stat,
have to act upon the question.
Miss Emily p Bissell read the fol
lowing form of statement:
1--WE believe that the further ex
! tension of the suffrage to all womeI
is not desired by the majority o
them.
I'VE believe that it would involve
greater expense at elections with NJ
corresponding benefit either to wo
men or the State.
1--WE believe that the interests o
the family and the. home are men
aced by any further political activi
! ties.
"As women Of Delaware Of full vot
ing age, and therefore affected by thu
proposed change, we subscribe on
names as being satisfied with th'
present non-partisan status of womeI
in our State government"
It is signed by Mrs. Eugene duPou,

TEN IN FRIENDS
SCHOOL Class, "A
DR.. Baker Tells Graduates
to "Ride Horse That
Throws Them"
RESPECT FOR THE
MAN WHO WORKS

With the motto, Learn to ride the
horse that throws you," as a stand
ard to live by. DR.. William w. Baker,
Of Haverford College, turned the last
page Of school life of the 1914 class
Wilmington Friends School, at the
commencement exercises of the
school in the Friends Meeting House,
Fourth and West streets this morn
ing. The class that left the insti-
tuition this morning was the largest
graduated from it in ten years.
The exercises were attended by a
large number of the relatives and
friends of the members of the class,
and there was hardly a vacant seat
in the historic meeting house when
the exercises began. While very sim
pie, the ceremonies were exceptional
ly impressive and the addresses were
greatly enjoyed. The members of the
class were; Charles f. M. Briggs
Helen E. Brinton. w. Carroll Coyne
Stephen Curtis, Lewis B. Finn, Pusey
b. Heald. Robert T. Layfield, +. Jo-
sephine Marston, Marion G. Postles
Garret A. Taylor, Edwin II. Thomas
a. Jackson Whitney, Sd, E. lie Roy
Wilson.
The occasion of the graduation Of
the girls and boys of the class oi
1914 was tinged with a little more oi
the sadness than usually accompanies
the passing of students forever from
their school. Some of the boys and
girls who received diplomas this
morning have been in Friends School
since they were tots. 1t was there
they learned TO spell their first word
1t was there they passed through that
wonderful record of school events
some joyful and some sad at the
moment, but very glorious and preci.
Gus this morning All the memories
Of the school days were recalled t.
them today and the fact that they
we're leaving the school caused some
sadness.
The meeting house was decorated
with crimson rambler roses, field
daisies and palms, and presented ;
very quaint and attractive appear
ance.
DR.. Baker took as his subject 9Th,
GlOries of Hard Work and A Hare
Life" "It remains with you" DIR
Baker told the class Whether yoi
shall take the hard course or the cas-.
course in life. The men and WON
en of today, who are worth while
are the men and women who Leaf
hard lives. Back of success you al
ways find word, hard work, Of thl
most unflinching kind, and you will
find the life of hard work is tn
easiest life. II is the life that mel
enjoy; the life that calls upon al
the powers that stand for something
IN the individual. You have a tire
mendous advantage over your fore
fathers. One man today can do IN
work of a hundred men a centur
ago."

Uncle Sam, Banker.

Wisconsin State Journal: Perhaps
it is just as well that the subject of
farm credits is not to be taken up by
Congress at this time.
Apart from the fact that it has not
been studied carefully by the majority
of folks, let us see how the new federal
reserve banking plan for city borrowers
works before deciding too much about
the country.
If it is true that the claws of the
money trust have been trimmed and
that it will no longer be possible for a
handful of men sitting around a table
to say thumbs up" or thumbs down"
to big enterprises, experience in a little
while ought to show it; in which event
the problem of rural credits may be
approached in a spirit of freedom.
