not mean to infer we are perfect, for
we are not. My people have most OF
the defects, | suppose, that other hu-
mans have, but at the same time we
are far from the people that many
Americans have been made TO believe.
Not only are we a Christian people,
but our race has history that We are
not ashamed. Of Throughout the Phil
ippine Islands the people are now
working earnestly TO improve them
selves and their conditions so they will

us a chance to help ourselves and for
having promised US our independence,
which Is one Of the dearest desires of
the entire citizenship OF the islands"
To American women whose ideas of
Fillpinos have been founded on Sun
day supplement descriptions of wild
tribes, Mrs. de Veyra's gentle manner
and evident culture have been a reve-
lation. She is sought by women's clubs
because Of her charming manner as an
impromptu speaker on the subject
nearest her heart-the women of her
country.
At a recent Washington gathering
she gave in perfect English a concise
account of the work of a woman's club
in Manila which supplies milk to the
babies Of the poor and trains mothers
to care for their young children. She
told of another woman's club which
has branches all over the Philippine
Islands and which maintains day
nurseries for the children Of the work
ing women, provides Christmas cheer
for the lepers, the insane and the con-
victs, and gathers data to influence leg.

baby of the family, speaks three Ian

WHAT THE ANTS
DON'T TELL YOU

Anti-suffragists tell you that between
1916 and 1918 the Socialist vote in
creased 30 per cent. So it did, but
what the ants don't tell you is that the
Increase came in the year 1el6-19lI,
when women were not voting.
The Socialist state vote for governor
in 1918 was 23.623 less than the city
vote alone for mayor in 1917.
