Among the noted speakers who
will make addresses IN McCon-
nellsburg next Monday while the
Women's Liberty bell is In town
Is Mrs. Myron T. Vorce. A broad
experience IN the public affairs
that especially affect women, and
exceptlonable ability as a speak.
er are the qualifications that make
Mrs. Vorce one of the most IN
terestlng speakers in the suffrage
ranks.
In her home state, Ohio, she is
known for her suffrage work and
for her leadership of the fight for
better schools IN Cleveland.
Lergely because Of her efforts,
the schools were taken out of the
hands of politicians and the
children of the city were gwen
educational opportunities that
are now considered model.
Outside OF Ohio Mrs. Vorce Is
known as Chautauqua lecturer,
as a writer and as a suffrage
speaker. She has spoken mum
ber of times at suffrage meetings
In this state and has made such
an excellent impression that
there have been many requests
for her to return here. Her
splendid culture makes her per-
sonality very attractive one.
Mrs. Vorce has had a varied
experience. Her mother died
when she was an infant and she
spent her early girlhood keeping
house for her father and brother.
Later she became successfully a
newspaper reporter, singer and
a settlement worker In New York
In all these occupations she was
impressed with the need of the
ballot for women for their own
protection and for the good they
could do the State with it.
In 1902 she was married to My
ron B. Vorce, of Cleveland, and
moved to that city. There she
became interested in the scdoo's s
and after her fight to improve
them she was more than ever i'm
pressed with the fact that women
needed a direct voice in politics.
She became active in sufirag e
work and is now an officer of Il @
state organization there. She is
helping in the Pennsylvania cam.
paign because she believes that
a victory here this year will set
a good example for her state.

Ouick Action Saves Hogs.

When your hogs are sick, don't
put off having them attended. II
they have cholera. it is all the more
important that you act promptly,
not so much to saye those that are
already ill as to protect those that
have not yet contracted the disease.
Hog cholera spreads very rapidly.
AS soon as it develops, the owner OF
the sick hog or hogs should notify
his county demonstration agent i'm
mediately, or send direct to the vet
erinary division of Clemson College
for some anti-hog cholera serum,
specifying the weight of his we'll
