the rites of knighthood by fasting and
prayer
Mrs Pennybackor believes that
women can improve citizenship by
studying 1t, and she believes organ
lied women can do no greater
thing than to place ritual in the ma
tional life. She believes that any wom-
ar who does not vote, or who does
not take a first-hand interest in vot-
ing, is a foe to good government and
n traitor to her country. She says:
III I were king I'd make every girl
