it will result in breaking up a once happy home Her only relative is Henry V ansteenis of Woodlake Mrs Breuklander was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church in which organization her husband

in politics forever Chicago ltecord Even iu conservative Ohio womau is waking up to the call of duty which has been sounded from the crest of the Eocky Mountains In Ohio women possess only the limited form of school suffrage and the fact that in one city five thousand of them have registered indicates that a deepening sense of re sponsibility is taking possession of them In about twenty other states women may vote on school questions and the fact that they have not universally ex ercised their right has been used as an argument against the further extension of the suffrage to them It is said that women do not feel any sense of duty about voting But more and more are both men and women coming to realize that every citizen owes his vote lo the government as a solemn duty which none have the moral right to evade Especially do women feel this Ahen there is an issue in which the welfare of their childien is at stake Thus on special occasions when a moral question arises in the school election women register and vote in large numbers As they study other political questions more deeply they will find that the most of them have a direct or an indirect relation to the home aud the child and that it is not only their duty to vote if they have the privilege but to demand it if they do not already possess it Lida A Garkett BiiHlifJs of Money Thrown away by women annually in
