The voting at the special school

interest In the issue. The polling
place at the George Washington
school was a busy place. and large
number of both men and women voted
during the aft arnoon.
The interest in this election has
been more than usual and the vote
this afternoon was Indicative Of his.
The fact that women were entitled

not go and they stand on their own
merits SO far as first names are con-
cerned The women who voted in thu
rush first this afternoon were all
laughing and joking about their
chance to be on even footing with the
men. To many of them it was thu
first time they had the chance to
exercise the rights of suffrage, for
there were some in the crowd who
had just pass I'D their twenty-first
birthday-thet is. one would judge so
from appearances.
