his feelings, she wondered which. Al
though she was worn out before she
had worked another hour, Gwendollne
was not ready to give In. She could
work at her gardening just as long as
he could work around his chickens.
She wished she had chosen chickens to
raise instead of vegetables. She knew
much more about them and the work
was not nearly so hard. They were as
necessary, too. She had been unwise
to think that gardening would be so
much fun. She had enjoyed two
months on her uncle's poultry farm
one summer, and had learned a LOT
about chickens. OF course, she would
not have been able TO build the coops

was hard to admit, even to herself,
that there were some things men could
do that women could not. That she
would win out on that garden, though,
she resolved firmly.
1t looked very much as If she was
going to win out, too. The lot was
really a small one, but 1t seemed a
whole farm by the time GwendolIne
had It all spaded and raked. The
planting Of the seeds was more inter
esting. When they started to sprout
through the ground, she was sure her
fortune was made. A week Of splen-

with the plants, and she could hardly
contain her Joy when she made her
daily visits. Then came special rush

everything had had such good start
she was confident that no harm could

over the lot she noticed a big change.

SENATORS PREDICT
IMMEDIATE RATIFICATION.

Washington. June 29--The pred1c-
ton made some months ago by the
National American Woman Suffrage
association that the women of the
entire nation would have the vote be-
fore the next presidential election, has
received several boosts. Now that the
president. in the. interview with the
group of friendly senators, has made
it clear that, in view Of the often eX-
pressed democratic war aims of tbs
country a rejection of the federal suf>
frage amendment would be misunder-
stood by foreign nations and that the
democratic congressional cafpaign
committee has backed the presidents
wishes by a resolution, introduced by
Speaker Clark and unanimously
adopted, favoring the immediate sub
mission of the amendment, the passage
of the amendment on Thursday seems
assured. says Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Gait head of the National American
Woman Suffrage association. The
chairman of the republican national
committee is equally as enthusiastic
