Women of Mexico
Manifest Little
Political "Pep''

Little interest was manifested by
Mexico women in the Democratic
mass meetings which were scheduled
to take place Tuesday afternoon. In
the second ware, only one woman, Mrs.
W. W. Mundy, was present at the
meeting place. There was no meeting
of the fourth ward women because of
lack of interest.
Mrs. W. W. Bolts presided at the
meeting of first ward women Dem
ocrats. and Miss Irene Garrett acted
as secretary of the meeting. Mrs. E.
A. Shannon was elected committee
woman from that ward.
The third ward woman elected Mrs.
John W. Million as their committee
woman, but it is understood that she
has refused to accept the office.
Different motives have been as
crbed for the failure of the women to
take politics seriously, 1t is believed
by some that the meetings We're not
advertised extensively enough.
