SUFFRAGE SCHOOL CLOSES
Proves of Great Benefit to Many OF
Augustus Women

The three days session of suffrage
school which was conducted at the Au-
gusta Woman Suffrage headquarters on
Thursday. Friday and Saturday of last
week proved to be a boon to the many
Augusta women who wanted to know
about the cause. The first days work
was largely readings from articles by
we'll known advocates of the movement,
and the second and third days pro-
grams were conducted along more in
formal lines, being in the form of gen.
eral discussions and the asking and an
swering of questions. Mrs. Anthoine
and Mrs. Cobb were the head ones in
charge assisted by officers of the Au-
gusta branch. During the Friday even
ing session q question that no doubt
has puzzled many was answered. One
woman asked In what way is the
suffrage movement connected with the
so-called feminist movement and are
they one and the same?' The answer
was. Most decidedly no. the feminist
movement and the suffrage movement
suffrage movement is an important part
of the great feminist movement The
feminist movement is the struggles of
women in the various countries to bet
ter existing conditions, such as the wo
men in Turkey want the banishing of
the veil, the women of India the Gus
tom of child marriage and so on.
One woman said. II have been asked
so many times. to give four reasons
why women should vote?" Mrs. Cobb
summed them up thusly: 1t is expedient
both for the State and the women
themselves: it is right on the grounds
of democracy it is right on the grounds
of evolution. and it is best shown by

Thos. A. Edison. Prof. Woods state
ments made last week before the Bos-
ton Rotary Club have been published
in every part of the country. He said:
"Germany's reluctanc to plunge into
war with the United States is due in
a large measure to a fear of what Edi-
son might produce as a war weapon.
They are scared to death of Edison
because of information that has reach
ed them of his experiments with
poisonous gases, which they declare
could exterminatc a whole army"
Prof. Wood believes that many of
the fires which earlier in the war broke
out in the coal bunkors of liners at
sea were the result of wireless con-
troll from the shores of the United
States. In his demonstration of the III
ira Violet Ray, he shows how 1t could
easily be done.
He says that the possibilities of long
range explosions are known to the Adj

that in event of war thew would Startle

enough to send back after seven of
