/ Of women getting out in the crush and
casting their votes
: TO the people not vitality interested
I in woman's suffrage I admit that the
! cartoons and carlcauures Of the day,
! showing n weak and effeminate hus-
| band. apron clad, minding the baby or
: washing dishes, while large masculine
wife is out stump speaking or attend
I ing political meetings have been the
accepted idea Of woman suffrage and
that people have not gone any deeper in
thinking about It
Does 1t Mean Muchf
IF woman's suffrage means more
than the mere casting Of a vote or the
dabbling in politics by women, il it
means what some Of its advocates claim
for it, if it means better working con-
diJions for women who work. better
conditions for children, a single stand
ard of morality for men and women,
better home conditions in the enforce
ment of sanitary and pure food laws;
if it means more than giving a woman
the opportunity to get out and rub
elbows with men and cast her little
vote as TO whom shall be alderman or
mayor or governor, If it means all these
things-weu II is something then that
/ may have TO study more deeply-but
in the meantime I am quite content to
let my husband attend 10 all that for
me"
