fashioned town meeting fully expresses
what took place Tuesday evening at K.

audience a farce comedy entitled "A Suf-
fragette Town Meeting" There were
suffragettes all of whom were women
with the exception of one who on the
spur of the moment turned suffragette
with compelling inducements.
The performance. which was of about
oDe hours duration, was "one good

amateur actresses, all of the participants
deserving much commentator for the ex-
cellent manner In which they took their
part.
At the conclusion of the comedy short
entertainment was given followed by
