Women's Rights in France

Paris-LP)-The right to vote has
not yet been conceded to women in
France, but they are gradually &C.
quiring most Of the remaining rights
and privileges that have hitherto
been strictly limited to men. The
latest instance Of differential treat
ment being removed is the price Of
admission to balls and dance halls Of
the popular type. Until recent years,
the masculine sex paid higher tariff
than the feminine, which indeed IN
many cases was not called on to pay
at all. The scarcity of men and the
greater number of women who fire.
quent public dancing places and havs
the means to pay, are two reasons for
the change.

Lancaster of Groton. Mass, and
Master William Emmons Taylor of
Mechanic Falls, and by sister,
Miss Nellie Dolloff, who resides in
the Taylor home and who has given
her entire time and loving care to
her sister during the long illness.
Although nearly blind Mrs. Taylor
possessed a very happy and con-
tented disposition and was always
happiest when surrounded by her
family, and this family in turn
never lost an opportunity to make
her happy. Mrs. Taylor was a
Charter member of Somerset Re-
bekah Lodge and always attended
their meetings whenever possible.

ROME, September 20.-Despite all
efforts of the government police to
trace the assailant who attacked Earl
Brennon American vice consul, a
week ago Saturday, they report them
selves foiled. 1t is the impression In
official quarters here that there was
no significance in the attack: that tb9
assailant did not know BrennOn. and
still less his official position.
The affair happened early in the
morning. when Brennon, coming hap
tily out of a camera shop in one of the
main thoroughfares. was attacked by
a stranger. who uttered unintelligibla
cries and lashed him with a strap,
Brennon was unhurt, not even
marked. but was so overcome by sur
prise that he failed to detain the as
sailant. The American Embassy re-
ported the incident to the Italian min
istry of foreign affairs.
