I K 1 1 "Tho Debt of College Women to tho Suffrage' Movement'' -'was the subject of ' a lecture by Mary Wood Park at Convocation yesterday which wob deserving of a large attendance. Those who stayed 'away on 'account of tho fctofmy "weather missed a lecture which was an unusually clear presen tation of the suffrage argument. Mrs. Park is a pleasing speaker and her personality was a matter of com mentis well as WaB her lucid reason ing. The speaker said in part: . i "In my opinion there are two greut reasons for women's suffrage. The first of these Is the fact that women RTe"ihtelligent luimnn beings compris ing one-half of a people whose boast Is that this government is a government by the people for the people. Yet in .Massachusetts the right to vote in the nffaivs of .this .government Is with hold from minors, paupers, idiots, for eigners, criminals, anxlj women. For franchising the former classes there ure sufficient reasons: they are not .wise enough or they are not aefiiiainteJ wIUTthe needs of the gov ernment. But for women there is no such reasou. i "SuffrageUs but.n pari of a larger women's rights' movement This move ment has progressed along educa tional, industrial, social and other lines. Let us note, for Instance, the change brought about in educational .methods as applied to women. As late t2s 1820, girls were crowded out of the eraramar schools in New England ex cept when .boys who normally attendee) them wero at work. The first high gdijnpenTo'gfrlB was Instituted in "" ;1820.lCwaV an experiment and after eighteen months it was closed because ' e&its, success, for.the trustees thought it harmful tcr society, that so many aii ie rwiuuiu -r-svetvv iiifiuui - uuiiuu.1 .lion.

Professor Chittenden is one of the most eminent physiological chem ists in this country. The subject of his address will be "Some New View Points In Nutrition." Tho general pub lic Is Invited to attend the meeting. Concerning tills lecture Prof B. A. Guenther of the department of physl-' ology In the University Medical School submits tho following state ment: " 'Those interested in tho formation of proper dietary habits must look for ward to tho coming-Sigma XI lecture by Professor Chittenden with consider able Interest. A comparison of the dietaries of civilized racos and the re sults of experiments of physiologists, like Volt, have led to tho belief In the necessity of meat as an article f diet. Or, more correctly expressed, In the necessity of an. average daily allow ance of about 118 grams of protein. Thl) rdcent work of Chittenden hnd apparently demonstrated that It Is,-possible to live and thiriver on, a diet con taining not more than 60 grams of .protein and Chittenden's most Interest ing subject is Mr. Fletcher..
