The students who take part in these programmes are those whom the teachers decide have reached a degree of proficiency to enable them to play or sing in a creditable manner.

He said that he did not believe a single pole in the dis- tance under conslderation was the re aquired legal distance of five feet from the tracks. Some were so near that one man had hit a pole when he put his hand outside a car in the act of flipping the ashes from his cigar. Mr. Perkins said that it would contribute Ereatly to the safety of operating the line if the poles were placed on the inside of the walk, and they thought the line submitted was about as prac- tical a pole line as could be laid out in Thames street.

Pl ta Wi n in | tra th Men Who Oppose. -y There are three types of man who oppose equal suffrage—the man who looks upon woman as an ornament, the illiterate man who thinks of her as a ve, and the corrupt politiclan, allied with the saloon and vice. Men who | believe in women will vote yes and the rank and file in California said if m wife or mother or daughter isn't good enough to vote I don’t know @ny man Who is. And the women had faith in the men that they would give it to them. To have lost this faith would have been the greatest loss California could have had.
