Women to Gather Sprlng Flow ers and Leave Them on Door steps of Tenement Tota, Friend» and Nelghbort FESTAL CUSTOM REYIYED It there ia a banch of bloaaoma OD your dooratep May 1, do noi auapect a vialt from the Roman goddeaa Mala, worahlpped In othar days, aa the aource and cauae of fcrtillty. Why? Becauae the vlaitora will ha va been a flower-ladan auffraglst, and she will be legion throughout the State that day. In brief, lt waa recently auggested that instead of holding meetings for The Cause this year aa in othera, the battle for the ballot b© halted, for the nonce, to give fiorai cheer to as many as possible by gathering May flowers and diatributing them, anonymously, to neighbors, friends and others. Following endorsement by county chairmen of the State, the pian was adopted enthusiastically. Accordingly, in the big cities, on the doorsteps of those who seldom if ever have flowera, there will be de posited fragrant bunches of blossoms. Weary little lads and maids, who do aot know that aunahine elsewhere becomes transformed into color of apring blooms and their fragrance will have the clusters of sweetly smeli lng blooms laid on their doorsteps. In Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and the larger towns there will be tours into the country for flowers of the flelds and woods. Others will be contri buted or purchased. Somehow, some where, the blooms will be gathered uid speedy trips will be made to the homes where they will be appreciat ed most. In smaller towna, where the coun try is nearby, practically ali the flowers will be gathered by the suf 'ragists personally and clustered with ferns and early leafy boughs. May 'ng parties—suffragista ali —will the woods from the early dawn until their harvest is satisfactory. Then what was gathered will be tied in slusters ready for distribution. Those who cannot join others will ùe asked to have little distributions of their own among their neighbors so as many as possible, may have a bunch of flowers with which to re member the suffragista* May Day. Ali the gifts, as far as possible, are to be anonymous, and every suf- Jragist is expected, according to in structions issued by the State aaao ciation, to give aomeone else at least one flower. The Booat of Democracy. Mra. Carrie Chapman Catt, nationS! woman suffrage leader, aaya: "It is a curlous thlng that in the cities of Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg there ia no woman suf frage, and yet in the capital of Fin land there are wocen sitting in the city council, as there are also in Stock holm and Copenhagen and In many cities in Great Britain. In Dublin women may become members of council, although no woman has yet been a member. Ali these cities are in kingdoms and kings preside over their governments.

So are our legislatore, our civic councils and our officerà. We are represented by these gentleinen but when it comes to saying who shall represent half the people, we are no longer people. Three hun dred and sixty-four days in the year, 365 this leap year, every woman of the land possesses the same freedom as mento develop her mind, to edu cate herself that her opinions may be worth while. She is free to ex press those ideas in every and any way. But upon the other day of the year she no longer is able to express her opinion except 100 feet away from the only place where an opin ion ls worth while—the voting polla —and this is' inconsistent of our gov ernment." This is an observation by Mra. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the National Woman Suffrage Asso ciation. SUFFRAGE, STILL LIVE ISSUE, DECLARES VARE Afflrming his faith in woman suf frage as a "live issue," State Senator Edwin H. Vare has issued from Phil adelphia a denial of a report circu iated by those opposed to suffrage that he had announced, in a recent speech, that "Suffrage is a dead la sue." "I voted for the suffrage amend ment in the last legislature," the senator aaid, "and I hope I will get a chance to vote for it again. I be lleve that the suffrage question ls aa live as ever, and that the people of Pennsylvania should be given anoth er opportunity to pass upon it. "At the last election, the ballot was so long and so complicated that the suffrago question, I believe, waa lost sight of by many voters. I want to make it plain right now that I never said suffrage was dead, and re ports to that effect are incorrect." How That Chlld Growa!
