the misdeameanors as set forth was
ono charging Miller with having taught
several of his pupils how to play poker.
The board heard the charges at an
executive session held last Friday. A
boy who was called to testify in regard
to the poker indictment on cross-ex-
animation admitted that he could not
tell one card from another or their
relative values. This charge was dis
missed, but Miller was found guilty of
having been absent from the assembly.
No punishment, however, was suggested
by the board
Tho trial. members Of the board be-
hevcd, would be the end Of friction
between Miller and his associates.

MunlnN as NOlnaS

Reginald h kaufman, WHO. as head or the
nano0al committees ouTean or p1o-
Iclty fm woman votes, has had a chance to
some observations. predicts that IN the
future women will vote as citizens. not as
women As for their tendencies toward parry
lines, the party that sincerely wants to do
the best for the country and sets about doing
it first. and doing it first at home. that is the
party which. in the long run. viii have the sup
port o. the majority or the woman vote"
The women. Mr.. Kaufman found. outclassed
the men in their appetite for information. Be
fore the committees pamphlet of voting instruc-
tons had been in circulation three weeks.
women all over the country were telegraphing
for one thousand lots. When the pamphlet was
continued as a magazine. there were requests for
more than a million copies per issue.
& In spite of this widespread publicity, the
wonen's department. had fewer silly letters than
the mems. The trend Of the letters received
was toward p~racticability. common sense, and an
ardent patriotism. The women went on record
as being more interested in the candidates char
actcr than in his party Among the issues in
which the most interest was shown were lower
taxes, conservation. education. smaller arma-
ments, and child labor.
Although the heat of the first enthusiasm
may die away, the outlook for this new epoch
In American political life IS bright. Indifference
is the deadliest enemy which a country's well
fare has to face. 1t is gratifying that the wom-
ems vote Is proving to be an intelligent as well
as an interested one.
