MEN Of FINLAND
SUFFRAG|STS,
SHE SAYS
Atlanta Woman, Who Recently
Visited That Country, Tells of
Observations There.

Men in Finland all are suffragists.
They would as soon go without the
vote themselves as to have the wo-
men of the country disenfranchsed.
This is the observation of Miss
Helen Gray. of Atlanta, who recently
made a two months tour of Finland
to study the various phases of its po-
litical, economic and sociological life
She will deliver two lectures at the
Hotel Ansley. describing curious and
interesting things that she saw and
learned on her trip. one will be given
next Monday night and the second a
week from Monday.
Miss Gray asserts that the Finnish
men would not be without the help Of
the women in politics The gentler
sex not only vote, but they hold office
and administer their duties as eff
GENTLY as the men. Miss Gray is said
to have made as complete a tour OF
Finland as any woman traveller ever
made. She met number of women
in politics, some of the members of
the Finnish Diet.
Equal suffrage has prevailed in
Finland about twenty-four years she
said Saturday. 1T has worked out
admirably The men would not re-
turn to the old order since the wo-
men have been of great assistance
Women there are in everything in
industry and the arts as we'll as in
politics, and the country is better
for it."
Miss Gray's lectures viii be for the
benefit Of the Mineral Bluff Industrial
