the War Savings Stamps and corre-
spending secretary of the Oklahoma
State Federation of Women's Clubs.
Being wdc-awake and progressive,
Mrs. Farley has noted some changes
in the world, which she enumerates as
follows:
First The adoption Of suffrage for
women in twelve states places those
states without suffrage on an inferior
economic basis, which of itself is bad
business policy.
Second: The constantly increasing
outside activities for women, their
splendid response in all lines of work,
their liberal response for financial aid,
and their readiness to perform the
manuel labor left by our splendid boys
over there and the constantly enlarg-
ing sphere of home which now ex-
tends even beyond the schools to
wherever our boys and girls are en-
plOyed
Third: When the war ends and all
is over, many of our boys. who are
mostly between the ages of twenty-one
and thirty, will not come back to take
the places of those voters. who in time
will go over Beyond. This will ma
terially reduce the number of male
voters who in times past have repre-
sented the women of the family and
allow a minority to rule, condition
that is contrary to all parliamentary
procedure. Such a situation would
put unlimited power into the hands Of
the dishonest politician and give un-
limited possibilities for graft.
1.-Two principles-both man-made-
must be upheld, the consent of the gov
erned and the majority rule.
"These are the reasons why am no
longer an anti and as a suffragist am
asking the men of the state to vote
yes on the woman suffrage amend-
ment November 9TH"

The young woman in her Sunday

She had on a pair of brand new

And this after four years of German
occupation.
Baker stopped to question her.

THAT secretary of yours is a
