much expense have resulted 10 the

fees, and in one case thousand DOL

BOARD IS NAMED
State Association Is Well
Pleased With Miss Engle's
Work.

Miss Lavinia Engle, field secretary
of the National American Woman
Suffrage Association, is assisting in
the West Virginia campaign for the
ratification OF the pending suffrage
amendment which comes to vote in

wise in selecting Miss Engle to send

in the campaign is heightened by the
fact that her family lived in Jefer-
son county. West Virginia, for fifteen
generations. Miss Engie is OF charm
ing personality, a college graduate.
and has had large experience in
suffrage work in the southern states.
Also. Miss Engle is suffragist who
knows how to cook, being the author
Of a book on the science and art Of
putting up sandwiches.
Since coming to West Virginia
Miss Engle has held meetings at
Romney, Keyser, Davis. Elkins, Par
sons. Thomas, Buckhannon. West
Union, Harrisville. Spencer, Williams
town. Middlebourne. Sistersviile,
Wheeling, Grafton and Weston.
The State Suffrage Association is
we'll pleased with the progress that IS
being made all over the state. Every
where there exists certain amount
Of prejudice, indifference and misin-
formation. A strong conservative
educational campaign is needed and
will assume a large majority vote at
the polls in November. 1916.
Various organizations are endors-
ing Woman Suffrage So far the
