She instanced from the scriptures the case of the five daughters of Zelophehad, who requestod anid obtain- ed from Moses at God's direction their share in the allotment to the Israelito families, their father having no sons. It is only sixty years ago, she said, that the first claim to obtain woman's equality with man was made, but the forces set in motion then are swinging the world around to the views of that small minority, and to the self sacri- fice of a small number of women is due the steadily advancing ideas on this subject. The women wage earn- ers of the world are to be protected. 1¢ the indifference of the average good Amncerican woman is urged as an argu - ment against the dallot for wofen, it an argument egainst all moral raforms and lines of progress attempted at the present day. It is to the few we must still look for orders to go forward, men and women who by their love and Interest and knowledge are raised above the average.
