Of the United States voted in the
presidential election of 1920. a still
smaller number took part in the
congressional elections of 1922. Do
you realize that those facts indicate

minority?

suffrage is not a fad to be followed

has come as great opportunity
to safeguard ali that is near and
dear to make life brighter and bet

their country.
I'VE women are approaching the
second great milestone along the way
of our political independence. Pri-
mary elections are already with us.
In a few months we shall again be
going to the polls to help select the
pilot under whose guidance we feel
the ship of state will best be steered
for the next four years. Let us not
be won with words; let US be de-
iiberate in our choice of candidates.

Miss Hollis Lenhart who for the
past two years, has been teaching
here in our high school, will not re-
turn the coming year, but will teach

For the past year she has been pres
ident of the local Epworth League.
She has made many friends while
here, who will be sorry to see her
leave. Miss Lenhart's home is in
GAINESVILLE, and the only reason she
accepted the position at that place,
was so she could be at home. Other
wise she has stated that she would
prefer to remain here.
