ANTOINETTE FUNK. - Folks,
you've got to hand it to Antoinette
Funk. She is there. She's got
might punch to her little figure.
Her voice, when she is making a po-
litical plea for Wilson, reaches out
to you. At Tuesday nights Pro-
gressive-Wilson meeting she was
the first speaker on the program. AS
she stood up before the mass of men
and women and snapped forth wise
bits Of political argument, the while
flinging her arms and head this way
and that, she commanded attention.
Many men in the audience felt
their hearts beat a bit faster as this
little woman stood up and talked the
talk of a person really interested in
the welfare of the land. She was as
good as any man speaker that
crowd had ever heard.
And it was all the more glorious
because she was a WOMAN. More
than one mans eyes filed up a bit.
They couldn't help but feel a big ad-
miration for Antoinette Funk. Her
talk brought home to many men the
fact that the women are THERE as
well as the men.
President Wilson can be proud
that such women as this little speak
or are out for him.
