Alabamas constitution is far ahead of ours in soq1e respects; for in- stance in Alabama a woman has had all along the right to contract to go into business and other things of that sort, while with us in Arkansas up to l9lo no woman had ever been licensed to practice law. A woman was recently elected on the school board of the state Of Arkansas, but, of course, that is not considered political; however, every thing now points to the fact that as soon as it is found that the ratification is effective, women will have these privileges and political appointments will be. made"

the picture a fairly light green, some
thing like jade, predominates, with
gray, black and white giving it variety.
There Is not much to say of this
frock that is not fully told by the pho

women will make this new power felt
as something to be carefully reck-
oned with.
About the first thing that concerns
them Is familiarity with questions that
are vitality interesting to them as cit1-
zens-and as WOMEN. They have had
much experience in women's clubs and
through them have brought about
many noteworthy reforms. 1t Is
through these already established or.
CARNATIONS that they can carry on
campaigns Of education for them
selves and for others. Regardless of
this or that party, women must make
up their minds as to what sort of
legislation they want and then under
take TO get 1t by means of political
parties In local and In national af-
fairs they must first inform themselves
as to worthwhile issues and help to
inform others. 1t is game Of public
ity-the spreading of information,
keeping an eye on the performance of
men in office and public officials of all
sorts and keeping informed, through
newspapers and magazines on policies
that are beneficial for all the people.
Any one at all familiar with the
teamwork done by women in their
clubs and various organizations, will
acknowledge that they are always In
terested in benevolences; therefore it

take to reform abuses and to institute
various improvements when they be-
come convinced that they are needed.
1t appears that the thing most useful
to them at this time, Is as clear an
understanding as possible of the planks
of the two great political parties and
a definite knowledge Of the things they
want to see accomplished, both in
their own local affairs and In national
affairs Busy as they are, they really
have more time to devote to the study
of public questions and of politics than
men have, for many men are too much
tied down to business. to bread win

thing outside. 1t "a possible, however,
even for busy housewives. to set apart
some time for this undertaking. Their
time is their own and managed by
them, which Is an immense advance
1t may fall to their lot finally to gather
and spread information that will bring
about, through the education of public
sentiment, the things that are desira-
bIa for the welfare Of human ,einps
Already certain large organizations of
women have got together and agreed
upon certain issues that they wish t.
