umn scribe the most salient points
made were the imperitive need of the
ballot in the hands of the women citi-
zens; and that the responsibility
should be given them whether they
want it or not for the development of
their personality and for the help
their sovereignty would be in meeting
the crying human needs in our social
life.
1t aroused the men and women of
Bookings from the apathy into which
so many who have acknowledged the
justice of women's acknowledgements,
have fallen. The need of workers in
its behalf is imperitive at this time.

are few. The time left in which TO do

can not love our brother without
active manifestation of that love when
the exigencies of the case demand it.
Personal feeling or favorable senti'
ment is not enough. These must be
crystalized into working form and the
necessity may be lost for the fifth
time in this state.
We want an organization in every
town and in every voting precinct in
the county. And we earnestly implore
every one who believes in the righte-
business of this cause to get together
at once, organize themselves into
leagues, and write to the county or
ganization for such help or instruction
as they need. We are short of funds
for the work but we want to place
literature where it is most needed. We
want the polling lists, that we may
reach every voter. We want to know
how every citizen stands upon this
question. We want women watchers
at the polls, or men who are known
to be in favor of the amendment. We
want to send speakers wherever pos

every local newspaper. We want to
have every minister preach upon the
subject and we want to create senti
ment by every available means. This
requires many workers. If you are
