Mrs. T. T. Cotndn

If N the long list of those who have
 slaved for the realization vr Susan
 B. Anthonys dream and Eliza beth Cady Stanton's cherished hope, there are names to be reckoned with.
 In the Who's Who" in suffrage are scores who stand out prominently and conspicuousiy for their efforts and achievements and in this list none is more full of meaning than the name of Mrs. T. T. Gotham of Little Rock Ark, whom Birmingham has had the pleas ure of hearing during the past few days, when she has repeated the fine impression as director of the 'citizen- ship school" which she made here upon former visit in the interest of suffrage.
 Mrs. Gotham, besides her intensive suffrage work. was a delegate at-large to the democratic convention at San Francisco in June, and had the dis tinction of ''seconding" the nomination of MT. Palmer for president being one of his most ardent advocate and ad- mirers and having given her time un- dividedly for the promotion of his nomination.
 Mrs. Gotham is also chairman of the Arkansas League of Women Voters% and member of the democratic central committee of Pulaski county Gin which Little Rock is situated). and is con nected with many other important measures in her native state, all of which makes her one of the most inn portant citizens of the great common wealth which gave to women the right of suffrage long before many other states ratified the amendment.
 Mrs. Cotnan's services are in great demand from all quarters, her knowl- edge of governmental affairs and her wide experience. equipping her in the best possible manner to instruct and inform those who are seeking to learn something of the real state of affairs of our great nation.
 Yesterday>w when I had the pleasure of talking with Mrs Gotham for q half hour after the morning session of the citizenship school,'' she was busy an swering telegrams asking her for her services, one from Indiana, another from Kentucky requesting her to aid in campaign work in those states
 "Of course I shall go,'' Mrs. Gotham said" but it will be well into October before I can get through with my work in our various citizenship schools. That is such vital necessity now for informing women of the true state or affairs in our nations government, and the relative positions of the political parties, before they cast their first votes in November. that the work must be completed before 1 take up. any thing else"
 "while Alabama" Mrs. Gotham said.

 Ignorance Is corruption" Mrs. Cot nan declared "and if we can onlys make the voters interested enough to learn to cast intelligent votes, we will have done 8 great work"

When Peter Rabbit had been forced 10 leave his little son in the hen yard Of Farmer Brown because Browser the Hound had suddenly appeared he had promised that he would return the next night. But Peter didn't return the next night nor the next nor the next. The little prisoner in the hen yard waited in vain. But each night he had other visitors-Reddy Fox, Old Granny Fox and Old Man Coyote They came and looked through the wire fence al him and tried to frighten him But the little Rabbit knew he was safe inside that hen yard He couldn't get cut. but neither could these hungry people on the outside get in. Each night he went out and sat close to the fence to,wait for Peter, and each nignt when these other visitors appeared he was glad that Peter didn't come. And he guessed why it was that Peter did not come. He guessed that somehow Peter knew about these others and that it wouldn't be safe for him to come.
 Each day Farmer BEown's boy brought the little Rabbit fresh water and the incest things to eat and was as gentle and kind as any one could be- The little Rabbit was no longer afraid of him, but would take food from his hand. In fact, he began to grow fond ol T dElHef bIoWH Doy ana was almost happy, even though he was prisoner. Still he couldn't help longing for the dear Old Briar Patch, and he could hardly wait for the coming of the Black Shadows that he might watch for the coming of his father, for he didn't once doubt that Peter would come.
 It was on the fourth night that Browser the Hound took it into his head to nose around outside the hen yard just after Reddy Fox had left. Of course he found the scent Reddy had left in his tracks and away he went in full cry after Reddy, for there is no one he so delights in chasing as Reddy Fox. His great voice hardly had begun to grow faint in the distance when the little Rabbit heard a familiar thump on the other side of the hen yard and scampered over there to find Peter waiting just outside.
 ! "Browser has done us good turn this time" whispered Peter, as they rubbed noses through the wire. T have been waiting for just such chance as this. Now let me see if you can dig. I'll dig out here and you dig in

 Peter at once began to dig on the outside and how he did make the sand fly! The little Rabbit did his best on the inside. He wasn't used to digging. It made his paws sore and he had 70 stop often for rest. But Peter didn't stop once. He dug and dug and the sand flew tNbehind him in q steady stream.
