i SUFFRAGE NOTES. <


The first two weeks of the campaign
conducted by the Iowa Mems League
for Woman Suffrage have indicated be-
yond a doubt that the men of Iowa in
tend doing their share in the equal suf-
frage campaign. The response being
made to the state wide appeal for &C
tive work on the part of the men has
not only been prompt, but is of the
most encouraging sort. Men Of prom
inence in almost every walk Of life are
lining up as workers, and on election
day, according to present indications,
the women of Iowa will be represented
by a splendid corps Of workers at the
polls.
The Tabor independent. [volume] (Tabor, S.D.) 1913-19??, 1916-03-30

A most hopeful sign in the campaign
is the interest the union labor men are
taking in the equal suffrage cause One
of the active workers from now on will
be President j. H. Strict of Sioux City,
who expects to do much good for the
suffrage cause while travelling about
the state in his work as the head Of
the Iowa State Federation of Labor.
A. L. Urick, state commissioner of
labor, also Is an active suffrage work
err, and is serving as a vice president
and member of the executive board Of
the Iowa Equal Suffrage association
Judge John L. Stevens, of Boone, one
of the progressive party leaders, be-
came q member Of the league last week
and will do some active work.

All OF which is pure nonsense.
OF course. Who ever heard Of an
egg either behaving or misbehay-
ing? Nobody. That Is, nobody tina,
know unless II be Blacky the
Grow. II is best not 10 mention
eggs in Blacky's presence these
days. They are forbidden topic
when he is about. Blacke is apt 10
be little resentful at the mere
mention OF an egg don't know
as I wholly blame him. How would
you feel IL you knew you knew all
there was to know about a thing
and then found out that you didn't
at all? Well. that is the way it is
with Blacky the Crow.
II any one had told Blacky that
he didn't know all there is 10 know
about eggs he would have laughed
at the idea. Wasn't he, Blacky,
Matched from an egg himself? And
hadn't he. ever since he was big
enough. hunted eggs and stolen eggs
and eaten eggs? II he didn't know
about eggs who did? That is the
way he would have talked before
his visit 10 Farmer Browns hen
house. II II since then that IT has
been un1tse 10 mention eggs when
Blacky Ia about.
You remember that Blacky finally
got his courage up TO the point OF
flying up TO the edge Of the nest.
ing box Just inside the door OF
Farmer Browns henhouse.
There, just as he had seen them
when he got that hasty glance In
there about which have told you
were two eggs How Blacky did
wish that he could take both Bul
he couldn't. One would be all that
he could manage He must take
his choice and go away while the
going was good. Which should he
take?
II often happens In this life that
things which seem to be unimport
ant. mere trifles In themselves
prove to be just the opposite. Now
SO far as Blacky could see. It dldn't
make the least difference which
egg he took excepting that one was
a little bigger than the other. As
a matter OF fact, II made all the
difference in the world. One was
brown and very good to look at
The other, the larger Of the two
was white and also very good to
look at. In fact, Black thought II
the better Of the two to look at, for
IT was very smooth and shiny. So
partly on this account. and partly
because II was the largest. Blacky
chose the white egg. He seized u
In his claws and started TO fy with
II. but somehow he could not seem
TO get good grip on II. He nut
tered TO the ground just outside the
door and there he got a better grip
