ENCOURAGEMENT FOR
ANTS FROM ARKANSAS

Mrs. Henry B. Thompson. presioen'
OF the Delaware Association Opposed tc
Suffrage for women, received the fol
lowing letter today from a legislator
of Arkansas, which State was the
eleventh TO ratify suffrage:
Dear Madsm--Just a word OF en-
couragement to you from the south
Stand by your colors. It is only through
demagoguery and common politics thai
the suffrage movement has reached the
proportions that it has now attained
The people OF this country do not want
II. II is only In the legislatures where
they can concentrate their efforts and
political Vaccinations where the sur
fraglsts are successful.
"Our American home life is weaken
ing fast enough without being spurred
on by woman suffrage.
1T is really pitiful how many OF our
great men lpardon me, | should nave
said. supposedly great mem who VIII
admit 10 their closest friends that they
are opposed TO woman suffrage but
they will vote for 1t because they be-
lIeve IL is coming and they might as
well be on the bandwagon--demagogues
and towards, men who are afraid lof
their Jobs. men who have political as
plratlons rather than statesmanship as
pirations. II Is contemplate, II is more
than contemplate, II is pitlful.
MY friend, no one knows and prob
ably will ever know how many good
men were whipped into line by inn
proper pressure made possible by The
card-lndex system used in Congress, and
this by women who want to purify
politics and help uplift this country
by their noble example. What Is fair
for one Is fair for another. Therefore
how would II look for the trusts, or in
surance companies, or any interests to
carefully record the life Of every mem
Der OF Congress from the time when
they left their mothers breasts, and To
have all their financial trouble. obliga-
tlons, aud the Lord knows wnat else r,
corded, so that they could know iust
where to bring the pressure so as TO
wiring from a member his vote contrary
TO his conscience and his wishes2 II
they do this they certainly keep II a
secret.
But. not so, the suffragists. really
believe that the sufrragists are proud
Of their card-index system OF Congress,
when they ought TO hide their faces IN
shame. But. my dear sir. they have very
little shame as you have by now dis
covered.
God be with you, the bearer OF the
we'll wishes OF the good mothers OF this
country.
'Yours very truly,
'DODDRIDGE MCULLOCH."

CITY ELECTRICIAN
WARNS ST0REKEEPERS

There is considerable danger in
the p-romiscuous and improper use
of holiday decorations, especially
electrical, according to Jay IL
FRANKIE city electrical inspector.
Panic and property loss can be pre-
vented by the use of great care In
installing decorations. Often dan
gerous conditions are introduced In
connection with inflammable Christ
mas displays without increasing h
effectiveness of the decorations.
Merchants are asked to use proper
precautions in preparing their ex-
hibits.
The destructive possibilities of de-
fective electrical construction at TINS
season are enormously increased by
the use of cotton batting and similar
highly infiammable materials fof
shop decorations. The practice of
draping merchandise over lamps, in
addition to being dangerous. defeats
its own purpose. The efficiency of
the lamps is reduced by cutting
down the area of illumination, and
the establishment of brilliant spots
of light among the merchandise pre-
vents prospective customers from
seeing the goods to advantage. The
uniform and comprehensive distri-
button of light in a show or
show window is ideal illumination
and may be accomplished with
safety.
1t is also pointed out that fires at
this time of year tend to make shop
pers timid and has the effect of cut
ting down sales. Merchants will
readily see the wisdom of taking no
chances with experiments which in
crease fire dangers without in any
way promoting the sale of goods.
