Women are queer things, no doubt
about that,
They hate to be thin and they hate to
be fat.
One moment it's laughter, the next it
is cry,
And you can't understand them how
ever you try.
But there's one thing about them that
everyone knows,
A womans not dressed till she pow
ders her nose.
I've studied the sex for number of
years,
I've watched them in laughter, and
seen them in tears.
On her ways and her whims I've pom
dered lot,
To, learn what will please her and just
what will not
But all have learned from the start
to the close
Is that sooner or later she'll powder
her nose.
"At church or ball game at dance
or a show,
There's one thing about them know
that / know;
At weddings or funerals or dinners Of
You'n find that her hand will dive into
waist,
And every few minutes she'll strike
up a pose,
And the whole world will wait till she
powders her nose"

ExrRCIsE Your rnANcmsr ropAY.

Tho world has Just ono last moment word N
advice TO tho voters OF TULSA. II ~ that each
OF YOU white or black male or female foreign
born or native. exercise your constitutional
right OF franchise today.
10 is the Rroatcst privilege YOU have under
In" flag. no. man can legally take II from
you; no man who Is not himself a thief In tho
making will attempt to do 80. Any man or or
ganlzation OF men who will directly or indl-
rectly. by overt act or gestures ot intimidation,
seek to dcny any legal voter such privilege,
stands as common enemy or enemies Of tho re-
public.
Vote today. You women, even though you
did not want the ballot. even though YOU do
not now desire to exercise IT, vote today. Bc-
cause II IL now an obligation that you owe your
city your state and your nation. Unless tho
best, the most refined. the most cultured
women do vote now that suffrage IL universal
It will result In terrific damage TO the com.
monwcalth.
How YOU vote is matter that concerns only
yourself and your God. That Is to say. the
secrecy thrown about you in tho voting booth
is sncred; your rights thcre are those Of
sovereign. supreme. And therein you need
consult only your conscience ana your Iudg-
ment
There has been much said about tho colorcd
voters, how they registered and So on on this
day ana for this occasion the colorcd voter
stands precisely high as does tho whitcst Of
the white. lie has rights az sacrcd and os
jealously safeguardcd as any whito man IN tho
community Ry peculiar coincidence II hap
pens that the colorcd voters have been gem
orally registered Every such having thus quall-
fled himself herself 10 vote can do 30 and
should do so and no man high or low has ths
right TO Interfere or attempt 90 dictate such
vote.
The colorod voters today can render them,
selves no better service than by going 20 the
polls In orderly manner and there voting their
choice deliberately and without consultation
with any politician or taking advice from fear
aroused by threats Of violence or cowardy pub
lshed leaflets calculated TO intimldate them.
when the real majority OF a community Is

voters in constitutional manner, no one has
cause 10 complain or fear to nurse. what

community. II Is only when mlnorties are per-
mlttcd to dictate, only when acts Of lnumda-
ton and duross permit mere minority 10 con-
troll elections that the consequences are grave
and unsatisfactory.
Let every man and woman vote today And
let every man and woman make some effort TO
see that Just as no rightfm voter Is denied tho
privilege So no Illegal voter shall he permitted
