That women are fast taking their
place In the affairs OF the Nation was
made apparent recently when Governor
James ID. Black Of the Grand Old Com
monwealth OF Kentucky appointed Miss
NJ. Annie Poage. OF Ashland, alde-de-
camp on his stan with rank of Colonel.
Governor Black is the first Kentucky
Governor and probably the first Gov

this recognition came. TO Miss Poage

OF newspaper work. and was both sur

She is one OF the leading newspaper
women OF the South. and made herself
prominent during the war with her
writings and war work generally. She
finihed her early education by. pre-
pairing herself as dramatic reader,
and had the honor OF being valedic-
torian at the Soper School OF o.atory
In Chicago.
While she was busy day after day
earning her bread by the end Of her
lead pencil. when the call to arms"
came she was ready TO answer, and
did 1t just as bravely as those who
fought on the battlefields OF France.
When the Council OF National Defense
wanted n 'live wire" in Northeastern

while working along these lines she
saw the need of spreading interest and
getting the whole county organized and
she conceived the idea of organizing

servation.
These One Hundred Speakers were
made up OF both men and women, and
were chosen from "the butcher, the
baker and the candle stick maker.
