CONCERNING CONGREsSMEN
AND WOMEN'S OPINION

"Our congressman are elected upon
the basis of representation Of all the
people. So are our legislators, our
civic councils and our officers. We
are represented by these gentlemen
but when it comes to saying who
shall represent half the people, we
are no longer people. Three hun.
dred and sixty-four days in the. year,
365 this leap year, every woman OF
the land possesses the same freedom
as men to develop her mind, to edu.
cate herself that her opinions may
be worth while. She Is free to ex.
press those ideas in every and any
way. But upon the other day OF the
year she no longer is able to express
her opinion except 100 feet away
from the only place where an opin-
lon Is worth while-the voting polls
and this Is inconsistent of our gov.
eminent"
This Is an observation by Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Gait, president Of
the National Woman Suffrage Asso-
citation.

Why? Because the visitors will have

In brief, It was recently suggested
that instead OF holding meetings for
The Cause this year as in others,
the battle for the ballot be halted,
for the nonce, to give floral cheer to
as many as possible by gathering
May flowers and distributing them,
anonymously, to neighbors, friends
and others. Following endorsement
by county chairmen OF the State, the
plan was adopted enthusiastically.
Accordingly, in the big cities, on the
doorsteps of those who seldom IL
ever have flowers, there will be de-
posted fragrant punches OF blossoms.

ing blooms laid on their doorsteps.
In Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and the
larger towns there will be tours into
the country for flowers OF the fields
and woods. Others will be contri-
outed or purchased. Somehow, some
where, the blooms will be gathered
and speedy trips will be made to the
homes where they will be appreciate
ed most.
In smaller towns, where the coun-
try Is nearby, practically all the
flowers will be gathered by the suf-
tragists personally and clustered with
ferns and early leafy boughs. May
ng parties-suffragist all-will range
the woods from the early dawn until
their harvest is satisfactory. Then
what was gathered will be tied in
clusters ready for distribution.
Those who cannot join others win
be asked to have little distributions
Of their own among their neighbors
so as many as possible, may have a
bunch of flowers with which to re-
member the suffragists' May Day.
All the gifts. as far as possible,
are to be anonymous, and every suf-
tragist Is expected. according to In
ytructions issued by the State asso-
citation, to give someone else Rt
least one flower.
