Where the roof Of the world
sends it's far-flung shadow over the
province of Assam, in British India,
was born, three score and ten years
ago, a woman who has contributed
much to the women's clubs of this
state. Yet few of the club members
have ever seen her face and there
are but few who are aware of the ma
ture of the work she is accomplishing
SO thoroughly and So quietly.
When the fourth district meeting
was held in Red Lodge this fall. it
was the great privilege of the mem
bers of that gathering to listen to
Mrs. Sophia Titterington of that
city. deliver her address as chairman
of the bureau of information for the
state federation of clubs. With a
voice ringing with power which be-
lied the infirmities of her body, the
words she spoke were so full of inter-
est and inspiration that her hearers
were moved to marvel at the scope
of her plan and the determination
with which she had worked out every

wish when they have not time to wait
for the Twentieth Century Limited

tlon,' said Ruth Law, champion
cross-country flier.
MISS Law announced she had ac-
cepted an offer from an airplane COM
pany OF Buffalo to build her a plane
designed especially for speedy flights,
'These boys will be after me next
spring and I've got to get busy and
defend my title" Miss Law said. as
she grew enthusiastic over her new
machine and told of what she hoped
to accomplish with it.
This machine will be able TO car
ny, besides a passenger, a fuel supply
that will last ten hours. and it viii
be built for a speed of not less than
100 miles an hour.
"That is not all, though. Relia-
blllty is the main thing, and my new
machine will be built with that in
mind. Cross-country flying is going to
be very popular, but it must be mad
safe"
Engineers of the airplane
are working on the machine, and Miss
Law hopes to be sble to give it a trial
hight within a month.

When Charlotte Perkins Gilman
visited Montana last year, she was a
speaker at the vocational
and was a guest at Hamilton Hall.
IN the evening, after the sessions of
the congress were closed, the fire
was lighted in the big Fireplace in
the hall, and the girls of the dormi-
tory' all in kimonas and slippers as
were also the guests, sat around the
hearth II the noted poet recited
many OF her delightful little poems.
The verse above was recently penned,
a timely comment on the trend of
the recent elections.
And speaking of poetry, here is a
series of sonnets "To Womankind,"
by william Dudley Foulke, and the
last OF the series is "Justice":
Slowly the gates of opportunity
Open at last and ever more and
more
woman is ruler of her destiny
And skaters many a bond that
once she bore.
All shall be broken! Man shall seek
her aid,
Not in the narrow bonds of home

Shall speak with voice as potent as
his own.

There are II Kansas counties

there were women candidates for

Der OF cases the women hold the
most important offices in the coun-
ties. Every woman officeholder han

While Montana has elected a
woman to congress, to the state SUI
perintendency of schools, picked
two women to sit in the halls OF
legislation, and elected a woman su-
perintendent Of schools in every
county in the state, Kansas is doing
even better. She has elected the
first woman to serve as coroner, in
which position she may arrest the
sheriff of her county, should the &C.
casion demand such action, and has
named the first woman to be chosen
as presidential elector. DR.. Wini-
fred Viers vas elected coroner of Of
tawa county, and Mrs. R. c. Layman
of Hutchinson was chosen a presi-
dental elector.
It is probable Mrs. Layman will be
chosen to act as the messenger of the
Kansas electors to deliver the votes
OF the ten democrats to the president
of the senate and the speaker of the
house in Washington in February.
While Ottawa county is not popu-
lous, and ordinarily DR.. Viers would
have little work to do, the office is
a "potential" office. In the event
the sheriff dies or is removed or be-
comes incapacitated, the o as
sumes the duty of the sheriff with
u appointment. 1t is the only Of
flee, except hal of governor, where
he succession is fixed. DR.. Viers
may be orone the full term and she
may be sheriff also.
100 Hold Office in State.
The women made further inroads
into the offices Of the state in the
last election. There will be 1856
women assume their duties as elected
officials when the terms change in
January, May and October. The
county superintendel Its change terms
at the close of the school year., and
the county ~treasurers change at the
close of the tax year, October 81. All
other county officers begin their du-
ties January s.,
Fifteen years ago there was not a
woman holding an elective office in
Kansas. Ten years ago they began
%"breaking into politics." and since
then have gained new offices at the
rate of twenty-five to thirty at every
election. Women we're eligible to
hold office for many years previous
to the granting of full suffrage,
Granting suffrage has not materially
increased the number of women seek
ing elective office.
Offices They Occupy.
