FREE LYCEUM COURSE
 DAILY AT NORMAL

The Normal school is offering a lec- ture and entertainment course that compares favorably with any in the country, despite the fact that no charge is made for admission, the pub lie being cordially invited.
 The lectures are at 2:15 each after noon during the regular school week. This afternoon, the lecturer will be Superintendent Phillip w. L. Cox, of the Ben Blewett Junior High school, St. Louis. He is one of the most prom inent educators in the country. Mon day afternoon, Hon. Jonathan Wag- ner, state superintendent of public in struction of New Mexico, will speak.
 The attendance at these lectures, as far as the townspeople are concerned, has not been large, probably not near ly so large as if charge was made. We feel certain, once our people un- derstand the high character of this ly- ceum course, they will attend in great CT numbers.

ing. She reminded the club women OF
their obligation to the coming genera
tion who come with the sufferage in
| heritance.
The Heritage of Citizenship" was
the subject of the address by Mrs. r.
A. Gable. Wyomig was the first state
to grant women safferage. That was
fifty years ago, In 1919, forty-one
years after it was first introduced (by
California senator), congress passed
an amendment granting suffrage to
women. The last states to ratifv it were
those where the women had long had
the right to vote. The reason given
for this was that in those states the
sufferage organizations had become
inactive.
In the war organizations women re-
sponded for the first time to ma
tional call and in their egear co-opera-
ton obtained wonderful results. 1t is
necessary to organize and cooperate
even more now in this reconstruction
period.
Women secured the passage of the
Community Property Law and must
now spend time and money to keep
this law secure against the attacks
upon it.
