TWENTY- TWO
GIVEN WOMEN
There Arc 27,238,187 Women in
Have at Least a Partial Vote The Omen of the Baby
Carriage Outside the Polls
THOUSANDS of homo women
throughout the United .ates have
neglected to bo Interested .n suffrage.
And there Is till the man who In
dulgca In that time-worn Joke, 1. e.,
sees a plain-looking woman with a
high collar, strictly tailored suit and
flat-heeled shoes, and remarks, "sho
inust be ono of those suffragettes."
Here are somo wake-up figures I
discovered In that splendid paper of
the National American Woman Suf
frage party that are so convincing It
eeems needless to comment on them or
apply them to tho dubious.
There are twenty-two States In the
Union where women have full or par
tial suffrage. In these States there
are 11,145,292 women over twenty-one
years of age. In all the United States
there are 27,238,187 women over
twenty-one. This means that 33 per
cent of us In tho land of Uncle Sam
have the right to vote In some style,
shape or other. About 25 per cent
have the full vote, that Is, cast a
ballot on nil questions men may cast
one on,

How Mrs. Wilson has succeeded Is
best illustrated by a letter written by
Lieutenant Commander Payne, of the
'aval Homo, where sho founded tho
first naval school for cooks, to Cap
tain A. L. Key, U. S. N., of the Boston
Vavy Yard, when Captain Key was
urging Mrs. Wilson to come to Boston
o open a school for the s Ilors.
"Often I drop In to see how they
are getting along," Commander Payne
wrote, "and cannot get a bit of the
dishes cooked, to tasto myself. They
eat all they cook themselves from the
very start. In tho beginning I was
afraid this would' cause mutiny, before
I put It Into effect, but decided to risk
It. Much to my surprise everybody
In the n'ace Is hanging around the
galley (which is a special one) for a
handout. There Is onlv ono thing I
can say in regard to this class, that
tho Governor and I are pernootiy
amazed at the results and would not
havo believed It possible to train men
to such a point in such a short time.

Wilson, who Is with them every day

Mrs, Wilson Knoivs
What Men Like to Eat
Not counting her seventeen years
of experience abroad in the most
famous establishments of England
and France, for tho last eighteen
months Mrs. Wilson has had the
most remarkable opportunity that
ever came Into tho Ufo of a woman.
As head of the first naval cooking
school in tho United States nnd
dealing with hundreds ot sailors
month 'after month, sho has been
able to mako an exhaustive study
of the appetites ot boys and men.
Wliat do they like? And, provided
.vou know what tlicy like, how nre
you going to put it together cheap
enough to give it to them? In the
navy Sirs. Wilson teaches the boys
how to cook three meals a day for
as low as twenty-eight cents. All
of the wealth of this experience
will bo at the service of Evening
Punuc Ledger readers In the ar
ticles which will appear daily on
thii pago beginning Monday. And
remembor, there's to be a question
and nnswer column. When in
doubt ask Mrs. Wilson.
naval cooking school stovo that is
locked tightest in Mrs. Wilson's heart
At the samo time this has given her n
wealth of experience available to no
other woman because Mrs. Wilson is
tho only woman in tho world holding
her unique position.
Good Meals at Small Cost
Perhaps tho biggest lesson of nil was
giving the boys things they liked to eat
for such a small amount, and this Is
ono of the big principles on which Mrs
Wilson will found all her talks In th
Evenino Pudlic LEDOcn. Good, nour
ishing meals that will mako everybody
want to come homo for dinner, and
these at very low cost.
High officials of the navy have pair'
splendid trlbuto to Mrs. Wilson's abil
ity and the attention of Secretar
Danlel3 has been called to her worlt
by the heads of tho respective school
founded by her In Philadelphia, Boston
and New London, Conn. In the a--chives
of the navy, for Instance, unde
this dignified heading, "Abstract Krorr
Report of Inspection ot Recelvin
Shlp Barracks made by Rear Admlra'
A. Ross. U. S. N., Rot'd to the Secre
tary of tho Navy. March 6, 1918." there
occurs this glowing tribute ot how she
succeeded in stretching navy dollars'
"The Inspection of this school was a
revelation and tho work done is sim
ply marvelous.
"Ono phase most attractive was that
the navy ration was used pntlrelv.
that any member of the class could
prepare a menu; could take 'tho food

"The credit of this school should be
given to Mrs. Wilson, who Is giving
her tlmo without any cost to tho Gov
ernment, und her energies with the
purpose of making theso from Phila
delphia tho most efficient cooks we
have In tho service."
In tho same letter quoted above
Lieutenant Commander Payne further
wrote:
"In regard to tho value of Mrs. W1I
ion'8 Instruction, I do not think it can
be overestimated. I originally utarttf
out to try to do what would bo pos

training, nnd hoped that I might pos
ilbly turn out on a squeeze something
that would do as a fourth-class shin

training of Mrs. Wilson, at tho em

Taught to Market
"They bake splendid bread, biscuits,
nako cakes, pies, roast all kinds of
meats, mako good baked beans and
'jean soup and, in tact, can cook uk
navy ration In more ways and put It
up In better shape than I have ever
seen It done before.
"They aro taken to tho markets to
Inspect foods In the market, shown
how to select the best, to toll the dif
ference between bull, cow and stee'
meat, taught how to cut meats for
cooking and shown how to cook It nil
losslblo ways, how to bake and make
vistry, how to cook hospital diet and
how to cook and wait i n the table."
As a result of .reports such as these
the $50,000 appropriation was made
by tho navy to build tho scientifically
equipped naval cooking school now
learlng completion on tho grounds of
h Naval Home. Mrs. Wilson will, of
course, continue to be head of th-
hool, and all the wealth of experi
ence to be gained In this perpetual
matter of pleasing tho boys with
something new and cheap will b.

Ledger readers.
