Mrs. l.. w. st. Clair-Moss talked on
What Is Suffrage?" telling the his
tory as the women are fighting now,
she said, and it is only in the last

back to matriarchical times, when
women were considered mems super
iors
Other speakers listed were unable
to attend the meetings. General dis
cussion followed the talk. The second
meeting of the series will be held in
