After stenciling, if you will press a

you will find that it makes the color
fast so that it cannot be washed out

have mixed too much oil with the

a hot fiatiron. The oil will have
been absorbed when the blotter is

WANT SUFFRAGE
Workers from Ten Eastern
States Visit White House.
SUFFRAGIST DEMONSTRATION
President Wilson is Urged to Assist
the Movement for Votes for Women
by Lending His Influence in the Eff
fort to Establish House Committee
on Suffraqe-The Parade.


on Suffraqe-The Parade.
WASHINGTON - Clad in frocks
OF simple creation, representative OF
their trades, 400 women workers from
ten eastern states, intent upon enlist
ing the support of the nations chief
executive for the votes for women
cause, were received by President VIII
son at the White House.
They were led by Miss Marguerite
Hinchey, laundry worker Of New
York, and Miss Rose WinslOW, Penn
sylyania weaver, who, as designated
speakers, appealed to the president to
assist the movement for woman suf-
frage by lending his influence to the
effort to establish a house committee
on suffrage
It was tile second time the president
had been brought face to face with
the suffrage question III an official
way, and his attitude toward the petit
ton Of the women was already known,
He holds he cannot urge legislation
upon congress that has not been the
subject of organic party considera-
ton.
This was what he told the officers
OF the National American Woman's
Suffrage association two months ago.
He made it clear he had expressed
himself as personally in favor OF the
creation Of house committee on SUI
frage and had SO informed a member
Of the house rules committee who had
asked him his personal opinion.
When his personal opinion was ask
ed by those who were cooperating
with him the president said he freely
gave it, but as the spokesman Of the
Democratic party he felt that he could
not speak officially until there had
been organic consideration"
The suffragist-tOilers marched upon
the White House from the public Ii
brary with banners and streamers fly
ing, after holding meeting at which
speakers aroused their enthusiasm to
a high pitch. Represented in the line
were New York, Massachusetts, Con,
necticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia,
Maryland, Rhode Island and the Dis
trict of Columbia
