 Leagues and League Women
 A case of great interest to women and having to do with the executive secretary of the Tennessee league, Mrs. John F. Draushon, has lately been de- cided by the county court of Davidson county, in which Nashville is situated. After the death of her husband, Mrs. Draughon brought suit against his ex- ecutor for payment of salary due her from her late husband, with whom she had entered into contract to revise certain forms used in the business col lege he conducted and to do other tech nical work. The salary stipulated was $100 . month and she had been en- gaged in the work thirteen months when her husband died, though she had not drawn the salary agreed on. The executor of her husbands estate resist ed her petition on the grounds that a husband and wife are one in the eyes of the law and that therefore there can be no valid contract between them for services rendered. This, of course, is a common view of the matter, but it is not the view of Judge Hickman of Nashville, who heard the case. Judge Hickman decided that a contract of a wife with her husband towering ser vices of technical or expert nature, outside the scope of the otdinary do- nestle duties, is valid and binding" Mrs. Draughon was adjudged to have . clear claim against the estate of her

THE WOMAN CITIZEN

At the Citizenship school on Tues day Judge Hugh Locke told us so clear. ly and interestingly all about the poll tax and. registration laws, and the League of Women Voters is doing everything in it's power to spread the gospel of qualifying to vote. Leaflets have been distributed in all sections and through the cooperation of the managers of moving, picture theatres signs are being run in all the movies according to Mrs. Neil R. Wallace who is heading the campaign.
 Poll tax booths are being conducted under the auspices of the league at Loveman's and the First National bank building in order to make it easier for women who are downtown shopping to pay their tax. Miss Ella Conley and Mrs. Jere King have been employed by Collector Hawkins to represent him at They have been specially trained for sisted by large committee in urging her workers are Mrs. Adda Barnes son, Mrs. J. c.

 Next Friday at midnight the books close and those between 21 and 45 who have failed to pay poll tax will be dis franchised for the year. Friday is the last. day.
 More poll taxes are being paid than ever before on account of several keen oG La general interest in voting in a pres idential year.. In our opinionS all vot- CTS should be required by law to qualify and vote and should be punished for failure to do 50. It is too important matter to be left to individual whim.
 Successful School
 The only disappointing feature about the Citizenship school held last week under the auspices of the Jefferson County League of Women Voters in cooperation with the extension depart. ment of the state university and the National Leagne of Women Voters was the small crowds which took advan- tage of the wonderfully instructive and interesting lectures that were given Of course, the intense cold was partly to blame, but even so the attendance was not as large as could be desired, considering the unusual opportunity of hearing such speakers as Mrs. Gellhorn and Mrs. Cheatham, Dr. Thomas, Dr. Moore and MT. Howe, Judge Locke and Miss Rocca. There was an aver age attendance of seventy-fiye, and in all some 300 women attended, but it had been hoped by the committee that many more than these would be reached. However, Miss Rocca ex- pressed herself as we'll pleased with the members, and pointed out that the school was larger than the one held last summer at Columbia university.
 Those who braved the cold and heard the lectures were delighted with all the speakers. It was great treat to hear Mrs. Cheatham, so pretty and charming, and SO young to be the di- rector of a region, expound the why's and wherefores of the children's amendment. Mrs. Gellhorn's address

She urged that the members of the league study the Box peace, as step in the right direction.

 SHELLEY. There are several versions of the old Italian story of Ginevra of Medina, the beautiful bride who met her death on her wedding day. The popular yer sion is that adopted by Shelley, from which I have quoted verse. After the marriage ceremony, and while the ancient ancestral palace was filled with guests, the bride begged an hours rest in her apartment alone. When the company found her Il few hours later she was dead.
 Another less we'll known vesion is that Ginevra, wishing to play a prank, ran away from the guests and hid in an old trunk in the attic. The trunk was supplied with d spring lock, which, the lid once down, held Ginevra d prisoner, where she died from starva- tion, the fact not being discovered till many years afterwfrd. none having been able to accounS for her strange disappearance.
 There, then, had she found grave. Within that chest had she concealed herself, fluttering with joy, the happiest of the happy. But the spring lock that lay in ambush there fastened her down forever
 A portrait of the beautiful Ginevra is said still to hang in the halls of She ancestral palace of the Gherardi, near the Reggie gate of Medina.
