WOMEN HOLD FOUR RALLIES
Four big pre-registration rallies
were held by the women of Chicago
in four loop theaters yesterday. Each
theater was packed.
An army of speakers, great num-
Der of whom were aldermanic can
didates, spoke. A new thrill was
given the women when Catherine
Waugh McCulloch announced that
she had made a discovery that might
enable the women to vote for mem
bers of the county board.
She said that the constitution of
Illinois says that the county commits
sioners can be elected in any manner
chosen by the legislature. And if
she is right in her contention it looks
as though some of the present county
board members should begin worry
ing about equal suffrage.
County Judge Owens agrees that
Mrs. McCulloch may be right.
The meetings yesterday were held
in the Garrick, Olympic, Powers and
Cohan's Grand Opera House. The
following speakers addressed all
meetings:
Federal Judge Julian w. Mack,
former Probate Judge Charles S.
Cutting, Prof. Charles Zeublin of
Boston, Miss Mary Mcdowell, Mrs.
Catharine Waugh McCulloch, Mrs.
Charles Henrotin and Prof. Graham
Taylor.

men cut the cord which was holding
some of the gifts and down they came
before their eyes, which was the 1rst
intimation they had of anything Delns
given in their honor. The greatest
surprise of all was in store for Miss
Lynch when the dining room doors
we're thrown open and to her delight
she beheld dainty hand embroidery ot
all kinds hanging from a clothes line.
To keep the joke up she was hastily
CARRIED in a bingham apron and cap,
one of the gifts, and commanded to
take in the washing.
