Miss Louise Hall, executive Becre. tary of Pennsylvania Womaun’a Buf. frage Association, addressed a large audience on the above sutjecl in Graoge Arcadia Thursday evening, February the 26th. Miss Hall Is an attractive young woman who spoaks well, Her enunciation Is distinet, her use of the vowel sounds shows high culture, and her oratory is lucid, impressive, and convincing. She made argument sgainst the common ol! j¢tion that the sullrsge would take woman from her proper sphere, the home, Modernaivilizdion seems to demand that woman be self supporting sod often that she eveo help support the family. Kor thie purpose present day conditions take her from the home into the factory, the store, the office, the echoel room, the professions, and into a multitude of places outeide the domestic circle and from the same even her children are taken into the school room, the factory and elsewhere. Her home ie no longer what it used to be, Into theese new spheres the law follows her and her children, regulating their hours of labor, the sapitary and safe ty conditions of the placa of labor. The law precedes her to the market inspecting the food she must buy and even enters her home with its man- dates, Everywhere she flods herself confronted by law and its officers. Why should she not have a choice in the making of these laws and the selection of these officers? By what sight should man do all this for her? Again, to keep a just, healthful belance in our civilization woman should have the ballot. Maa is prone to be influenced too much by the dollar, Woman is quicker to see that human rights aie superior to property rights, that the spiritual element makes more for human happiness than the material element. Bhe gave a striking illustration of the way in which man sets the material above the best things in this world. Here in Pennaylvanis, under man-made laws, 8 girl can dis pose of her virtues at sixteen, of her self in lawful marriage at eighteen, but cannot dispose of the least bit of property that che may own till she is twenty-one, Another telling {llastration of how man is blind. d by his devotion to the material is this : In Rhode Island in order to vole a man must own prop. erly to the amount of $183. Becaus he possessed a donkey worth as much ad that a certain man voted for several years ; bat the donkey died and the man lost his vole. If, however, io- stead of the donkey, the man had died, the donkey would have been in. herited by the voler’s penniless son and then the latter could have voted. Who voted, the man or the donkey 7 By reference to a specially prepared map Miss Hall showed the encourag- ing progress the cause she pleaded for is making. Oaoe thing ls certain—there was nothing in her appearance, man ner, or matter to justify the chesp gibe often heard that those who are lead- ing in the woman's suffrage move. ment are uncultured, homely, disap- pointed women. No soti-saffragist can truthfully assert that she waa in any way offensive to good taste in her way of putting things. Her address no doubt won converia to the cause and started many to think along lines that will eventually lead them to es pouse the cause she advocated, Sr ———— sin LOCALS, The P 1NK LABEL appears on this issue.
