Association. Her subject was
woman and Democracy" DR..
Josephine NJ. R. White De la COur,
president of the association, pre-
sided and introduced the speaker.
The speaker in the course of her
address pointed out that when
woman is given the ballot it
broadens her view and outlook.
She said. public opinion in favor
Of equal suffrage is so strong to-
day that we can hardly realize the
prejudices that a bygone genera
tlon had to encounter" She gave
several instances to show how
women were virtually scOrned
when they first began to spread
their propaganda. Despite the

and the statistics of 1912 show
that in that year $4,000 girls and
$4,000 boys were graduated from

of some Of the great advantages
that Women's clubs have brought
to the country and to the members
themselves. She pointed out that

The mother feels that she must
have a voice in city government
and keep watchful eye over the
things which interest women and
children.
City government is matter of
housekeeping, and the eight mil
lion women in this country who
are wage earners, yet haven't
voice in saying who shall make
the laws under which they live,
would like to register their opinion
at the polls on election day. These
women are just as much absorbed
in questions of government as men
are, she said. She told about some
of the things which the women in /
the western states are doing with |
