SUFFRAGE NOTES

Mrs. k r. Danielson, Miss Rosa mond Danielson, Miss Elizabeth Ash, Mrs. w. l.. Beard, Mrs, Marshall Ken yon, Mrs. S Nikoloti, and Mrs. w. j, Bartlett were in Hartford last week at the legislature in the interests of Wom- ans Suffrage.
 A large audience composed of league members and their friends attended the February meeting of the Putnam Equal Franchise League in Odd Eel lows hall, Friday evening. The pro- gram opened with music, piano solo by Mrs. Fine, followed by songs by Miss Jenkins. With a few well chose remarks the president, Mrs. Walter J. Bartlett, introduced Rev. A. II. Withee, pastor of the Methodist church in Moosup, who is widely known in Put nam where he was for several years connected with the Salvation Army Rev. MT. Withee proved sn earnest and forceful speaker in behalf Of equal suffrage. His theme was Patriotism and Woman Suffrage, and he develop. ed the idea that the country has here tofore used only half it's resources for patriotic service because it has exclud ed women from active citizenship. The address was in keeping with the spirit of the meeting which had been arrang ed in celebration of lincolnss $ birthday. Miss Dsnielson gave an excellent ac. count of the address of Dr. Anna How-
 ard Shaw at a meeting held at Provi. dence on Jan. tolh.
