Therefore when the Indian women took an part in the campaign, picketing foreign cloth and homemade spirits, the gov- ernment had to deal with a factor they had not formerly recognized.” “It has been remarkable to see the change which has come to the Indian women,” she continued. “When I first arrived in India I found the women THE HUB LIBERAL BU Aluminoid Top Kitchen Cabinet Hardwood cabinet with roomy csmpart- ment, glass doors, aluminold sliding top and many other 95 time and labor saving ey features in a state of apathy from which it was difficult to arouse them.
