Two great turkeys were roasting be- fore the fire and their drippings fizzed and sputtered down into the pan. Every once in a while Mrs. Barber would rush to the window, and at last Sarah’s curiosity was fully arous- ed. ‘Do you expect many of them?” she inguired. “Let me see, counting on her fingers. said her mistress, “Yes, Sarah, x of them.” Mercy sakes!” said Sarah. “Where vou goin’ to get 'em all?

Edity of the Social Corner: “Out- sider's” suggestion to the sisters to express their opinions on equal suf- frage in the Social Corner is an excel- lent one. Those of the sisters who are too busy to write on the subject for the issue of Nov. 18th might write for the Nov. 26th issue. 1 have attended a co-educational col- lege before and after girls were ad- mitted, and the benefits which I saw which were derived by both sexes have made me a firm believer in the prin le of co-education. have lived in an equal suffrage state for three years, and I never saw or heard anything detrimental to the exercise of the franchise by women. Women were elected to both branches of the legislature, were nominated to committees for which they were fitted by training and inclination, and con- scientiously performed the duties re- quired of them. One woman, a state nator, recelved the vote of her col- fi:‘luu for United States semator, for which office she was well qualified. The women did not neglect homo duties to exercise the right of franchise, but sought to prepare thomselves to as- sume their responsibilities intelligent- ly by studying sociology, economics and civic questio: mald that In the first six months after women were given the vote in Colorado more books on civics, sociology. economics and po- litical questions were soid than had been sold for many years previously. 1 believe in equal suffrage because every argument why men should vote applies with equal force to women. Almost every reason adduced against woman suffrage can be applied with like cogency against man suffrag: Do women want it? Ninety-five per cent. of the feminine population of Santa Barbara, Cal, have registered, or 500 more women than men. A few gquotations: ““There is no sex in brains “Whatever men are, they are what wom2n have made them.” i “Womun's spherc is in the home, ‘but_the world is her horizon.” 1l “There are no rights of women be-| cause her rights are the rights of man- | kind.* ““The only way woman manages man is to allow n to think that he man- ages himself.
