 salvation of our country Always a be- lieyer in the republican party. it seems to me at this time no true patriot can vote the other way. Then, too, we women. have chance, if we support Senator Brande- gee, to explode some of the safiacies be- EeFed in heretofore by our detractors of both sexes. They say. for instance, that We are idealists which they use we are small minded, entirely influenced by p"r- sonalities and incapable of cooperation. In this connection the attack on Sena- tor Brandegee furnishes us with great opportunity It must be ignored. Wheth- CT we like him or not, whether we have always agreed with him or not, we know where he stands on the question up permost at the present day. and we know that we can depend on him to continue his stand for what he be- ieves is right which is also what we That should be sufficient Republican believe, as republicans and patriots. women cannot, must not. lose sight of the principles in which they believe and on which Senator Brandegee has taken his stand and allow themselves to be used as tools by the party of the | opposition, which has already begun thet insidious propaganda by which it hopes to take advantage of the ideal ism of our women to defeat individual SeHdlprS tREOuShOuL lne country
 Politicians are well versed In what | is. scientifically known as mob psy- | chology. and it is well known that the 1 losers in a political fight feeling the weakness of their principles, often | stoop to befogging the issues at stake 1 by personal attacks on candidates. Let us not be deceived. We art hovices as yet. most of us, in this sort 1 of thing. We have not learned the | political game. Nor is it nedcessarv that i we should learn it or join in it. All we | have to do as good citizens and intelligent voters is to remember and be true to ths I principles in which we believe, represent ed by the party to which we belong and against which personalities do not weigh l Moreover, let us make it a matter oi pride to show that we are thoroughly l awake to the need fer cooperation botf between ourselves and with our brother man if anything worth while is to bt accomplished.
 If We are idealists, as is charged let us show that we are practical idealisti by making ourselves as indispensable il the nation as in the family by our will 1 ingness to help. We are putting ou ] shoulder to the political wheel to heh our men folks. As novices we have mucl to learn from them. Let us not bogl I by hamperins their work. We must lear to cooperate with the political party | whose principles we subscribe. It is i'm possible to split the ticket and at tn same time he true to principle. It is i'm
 possible to split the ticket without work
 ing against your own party and defeat ing it's ends-and the result of this woul | be chaos
 Let us show our new president tha we believe in him as a republican an an American. that we absolutely endors .. his policies by giving him 9 free hand { get something constructive done. And le us be thankful, we women citizens (
 the state of Connecticut that it is in ou power to send man with such a spler
 did public record as Senator Brandeee back to the senate to continue the wor
 he has 50 bravely and steadfsstly bt gun.
