One very successful plan is to supply schools and with literature on the subj and to ish college literary and other ae with argu- ments for discussion and debate.

Mrs. Johus and Mrs. Colby when asked about the matter spoke of the effect of woman suf- frago upon marriage and were agreed that the number of marriage licenses had increased in greater ratio than the population, while thore had been no increase in the number of divorces despite the vast increase in the Popsletion: As Mrs, Johns said: “The senior Senator from our state has expressed the opinion that you cannot legulate a a decree of the Divinity.
