women

Under the Constitution of 1889 and
1898 of Georgia, women were entitled
to vote. This right continued until
1865 when by direction of President
Andrew Johnson the words free white
MALE" were inserted in the Constitu-
ton of the State. So Georgia women
of 1916 who demand the vote are
merely asking for the restoration of a
right which they once possessed and
not in any sense making new request
or an unprecedented one.
One thing the women's ballot IL
California brought about in hurry
was the Mothers Pension law. This
pailed in the legislature before the
women were given the vote, but the
very first year the women had the bal
lot Mothers Pension law was enact
ed. This is the direct result of wo-
men in government.
"a Square Deal for Women" is the
slogan of the Pennsylvania Mems
League for Woman Suffrage. In nearly
every State where women have not yet
received the vote, these mems leagues
have been formed, and their members
represent the best elemnt among bus
mess and working men.
One vote only defeated the woman
suffrage bill in the House committee
of the Alabama legislature. Alabama
suffragists are undismayed and will
try the Senate this week.

The Postmaster General of England

From Frills to Uniforms.

Styles and fashions for women have
dealt largely with frills and furbelows
in the past. To be hoped like bar
rel or confined in skirt narrow as a
pantaloon leg has been seriously dis
cussed in columns of periodicals and
newspapers. Sleeves bouffant or skin
tight received their share of consider
alton Through all the varying swell
ing and shrinking of frou-frou chang
es, the feminine note has been dol
like in expression. This year of grace,
1915, sounds a new departure from
frills to enhance physical charms, to
a uniform for practical military work.
Englands women are the sartorial
iconoclasts. The desperate need Of the
English army includes several distinct
departments and organizations of wo-
men. Conspicuous are the Women
Volunteer Reserves, the Women's Hos
pital Corps and the Women's Reserve
Ambulance Corps. Their uniform is
khaki color, and it is a common sight
on London streets to see body Of
soldiers give a military salute to a
woman in khaki. The day of the We
man of leisure, of society ambition, Of
flippancy is gone in Europe. The hour
of the woman of service has arrived.
The field of service stretches from cot
tage hearth to battlefield and recruit
ing office. The true English woman's
place is discovered to be Where She
Can Do Most Good" All hail to the
woman in khaki. -

Lucy Stone Day, Friday, August 13,
will be celebrated all over the United
States by suffrage meetings. Lucy
Stone was a pioneer not alone in try
ing to secure the ballot for women, but
in educated womanhood. The opening
of colleges, professions and industrial
opportunities for women came largely
through the efforts of the type of wo-
men of whom Lucy Stone was a splen-
did and courageous representative.
