Anthony, author of the suffrage amendment, and Mics Alice Paul 1 chairman of the National woman s pai-tv Both leaders have been mil | tants despite Quaker ancestry. Miss Anthony was the first woman arrested for the cause, and Miss Paul has spent several terms in jail for the same req son.

In 21 foreign countries they have full suffrage.
 First Public Address.
 In 1916, when the Anthony family moved to Rochester. N. Y, which was Miss Anthony's home until her death, March 13, 1906. she became head Of the female department of the aca- demy at Canajoharie. The following year she made her first platform ad- dress before a woman's society, The Daughters Union" of that place. In 1854 she formally allied herself with the ..woman's rights or suffrage cause.
 The following years were devoted to lectures and what would now be known as propaganda work, which cul,ninated in the organization of the National Woman Suffrage association by Miss Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton in May, 1869. Seven years prior to this, Miss Anthony cast bal lots at the state and congressional elections in Rochester to test the four teenth and fifteenth amendments She was indicted for illegal voting and fine was imposed. She refused to pay the fine, but was not jailed.
 Without Prete nsion.
 When Miss Anthony visited London in 1899. Lady Henry Somerset com mented upon another side of the great suffrage leader, recognized by all who came in close contact with her.
 'She has the true sign of greatness said Lady Somerset, 'in that she is absolutely without pretension. No woman Of fame ever has so thoroughly made this impression of modesty and unseIfishness on my mind
