After a fight which began nearly fifty cars ngo. they aie confident of victory. The first headquarters for woman suffrage in Philadelphia was organized In 1910. Miss Caroline Katzensleln, now secretary of Phila delphia branrh of the National Woman's party, headed this band of pioneers. The work was of a nature, she says, to discour age completely any but the boldest hearted and those who believed firmly In the Justice and necessity of the cause These women tried to awaken other women throughout the State, and by dint of speak ing on street corners and In factories at noon, winning advertisement for the cause with bitter sacrifices, they managed slowly to stir up a universal Interest In It, along with nearly universal opposition. "In England," said Miss Katzensteln, "there was mllltantlsm I was alwavs op posed to It, but r did take the trouble to try to understand It. One day a little English woman, pretty, gentle of voice, a lady to the tips of her flngeis, eanie Into my ofllce It developed that this (harming little crea turo was not only a firm believer In mllltant ispi, but nn nctlvo practlcer of it. It was like having a kitten suddenly open Its mouth and roar like a Hon "But she explained it to me. It was the only way to rouse the English people They had to break through the numbing silence nnd Indifference and get their message out. The idea naturally got out with their mes sago that a veritable horde of termagants was about to descend upon the earth, wreck ing homes, bullying men no Idea was too grotesque. "h, it was said, they were hurling bombs, destroying life and property. As a matter nf fact, thij Inmbs, like the levolvers of melodrama, weren't loaded. "We American women find It hard to un derstand or to excuse the seeming unwoman llness of those vciy brave women. They broke windows because. In England, to break a window is Mmply a custom of leglsterlng public protest. The little lady I was speak ing of said that before she broke a window she felt dumb, helpless to act at all, so crush ing was the weight of Indifference. After ward she felt ns If she could face the world. "The suffiaglsts here, basing their work ing principles on those drawn up by Susan H. Anthony in 1869, have been pushing on steadily. In few nations has good-natured and Inflexible opposition been so great. "Among the women, opposition has come chiefly from the rich, happy, contented women, wild", having no need of the vote, nevertheless have taken the selfish trouble to try to keep it from women who have a vital need for It. They are women who do not understand the laus of many States re garding women, otherwise no woman with an atom of reason In her head could have put up opposition to It. "There i not and never has been any argument against woman suffrage worthy of consideration. Opposition to equal suffrage means opposition to democracy." jwaaTOwx-tTOflrr, ' At 'AM2tt'MWW.n7 Thoto. by rhoto-Craftcr. MISS HELEN RICHARDSON DaUihter of -Mr. and Mr. Joteph Rich- ardton.

Once he could come home and, finding his wife nt a brldgo party, lament that she couldn't make preserves, and. sitting In his lonely Morris rhalr. brood on the damson Jam on mother's pantry shelves. To Judge from the zeal and the Increasing skill with which women whose pretty fingers two j ears ngo could not stone a cherry are mastering the ait of canning nnd preserv ing and "jamming," one would say that the super-housekeeper has come upon the earth. Every one Is canning along the Main Line. Tennis, fox-trots and bridge nre nothing be side the nnelent sport of cooking From the large kitchens of the canning centers rise delicate perfumes, which make the hert of the passer-hy grow bold and the man In khaki convinced that food will win the war. The spectator Is Imbued with the belief that this particular brand of war work which Is absorbing the attention of Main Line women is nn uncommonly attractive one When a oung woman with prett) arms rolls up her sleeves In workmanlike fashion and puts on a sensible apron with frills and her cheeks grow pink from her ardent attention to a cauldron of simmering butter beans she Is chaimlng. And they nre so uncommonly efficient. They know what they are about every min ute Their presence of mind when a jar of peaches has a relapse, for example their very language filled with the subtle techni calities of the kitchen, all tends to fill the soul of the masculine beholder with awe. In every canning center is a neat flrst-ald shop, for many are the wounds suffered by this very zealous nnd earnest nrray behind the lines. A machine which peels things can take a nip out of the fair mechanic's hand if her mind wanders: beets may boll-over, and frequently do. and countless other dangers beset the" business of canning. The Woman's Club at Ardmore has made the new clubhouse a community center and has given the use of the kitchen and dining room to the Ardmore Canning Center, of which Mls Mary Gibson Is chairman. There the bu"liies of food conservation will go on dally, portioned out in different groups of worl.

TUDOR JENKS. ANIMATING FRAGRANCE FROM NATURE'S STORE David Grayson Finds Early Morn ing Best Time to Inhale Rare Odors "Of all times of the day for good odors I think the early morning the very best, al though the evening, just after sunset. If the air falls still and cocl, is often as good Cer tain qualities or states of the atmosphere seem to favor the distillation- of good odors and I have known times even at midday when the earth was vry wonderful to smell. There is a curious, fainting frarrance that comes enly with sunshine and still heat. Not long ago I was cutting away a thicket of wild spiraea which was crowding in upon the1 cultivated land." writes David Grayson In "Great Possessions." "It was a hot day and the leaves wilted quickly, giving off Buch a penetrating, fainting fragrance that I let' the branches lie where they fell the afternoon through and came often back to smell of them, for It Is a fine thing thus to dUcovm an odor wholly new to me. 'T like the first wild, sweet smell of new cut meadow grass, not the familiar odor of new mown hay, which comes a little later and Is worthy of Its good report, but the brief, despairing odor of grass 'just cut down, its juices freshly exposed to the sun. One has It richly In the fields at the moninp. I like also the midday smell of peach leaves and peach tree bark at the summer pruning, and have never let any one else cut out tne old canes from the blackberry rows In my garden frr the goodness of the scents which wait upon that work, "Another odor I have found animating Is the odpr of burning wastage In new clearings or In old fields, especially In the evenings when the Bmoke drifts Jow along the land and takes to Itself by some strange chemical process the tang of earthy things. It Is a true saying that nothlnr will so bring back the emotion of a past time as a remembered odor. I have had from a whiff of fiagrance caught In a city street spch a vivid return of an old time. ' that I have stopped, trembling there, with an emotion long Bpent and I thought forgotten. "Onceln a foreign city, passing a latticed gateway that closed In a narrow court, J paught the odor of wild sweet balsam. 1 do not know now where It came from or what could have caused It but It stooned me short where I stood and the solid brick walls of that city rolled aside like painted curtains, and the iron streets dissolved before my eye' T .....! ........ l.m 1.111 .'
