toner and Dorman & Newall for the
Davis girl, informed him that they
had agreed to a dismissal.
The Davis girl lives with Mr. and
Mrs. j. Herbert Buzzell at Whit

beneath the piazza at this house that

Paris lined trench.
Following an investigation after
persons living in the house had re-

reason for her action that she was not

at the Somerville high school, was
forbidden to play with girls in the
neighborhood OF her home. and that
the girls at school made fun Of the
manner in which she was dressed.
She would remain in the trench

The above slogan. now the catch
phrase Of every advocate of suffrage
in this state promises to be in reality
Ohio suffragists are not downcast be-
cause the issue failed in the last gem
eral election. Here's the reason:
In 1912 votes for women" received
25O,O0O votes. This year the vote was
$4,000
IF $4,000 additional voters are won
over to the cause in two years, why
can't little hard work win over
twice as many in the next two years
the women are asking They are al
ready at work. Suffrage was de-
feated by the large city vote this year
The women will now concentrate their
efforts in these localities. The cam

However. Mr.. Marsh declares he
will not contest the right Of the pres

hold two years longer but will be pre-
pared to accept the office in the event
that the courts eventually hold that
the county judges elected in Novem-

similar situations and the elected
