Dear Editor:
We enjoy the Fulton

taining a cousin of yours not long

Mrs. Myron T. Vokce.
Among the noted speakers who
will make addresses in McCon
nellsburg next Monday while the
Women's Liberty bell is in town
is Mrs. Myron T. Vorce. A broad
experience in the public affairs
that especially affect women, and
exceptionable ability as a speak
er are the qualifications that make
Mrs. Vorce one of the most in
teresting speakers in the suffrage
ranks.
In her home state, Ohio, she is
known for her suffrage work and
for her leadership of the fight for
better schools in Cleveland.
Lergely because of her efforts,
the schools were taken out of the
hands of politicians and the
children of the city were given
educational opportunities that
are now considered model.
Outside ol Ohio Mrs. Vorce is
known as a Chautauqua lecturer,
as a writer and as a suffrage
speaker. She has spoken a num
ber of times at suffrage meetings
in this state and has made such
an excellent impression that
there have been many requests
for her to return here. Her
splendid culture makes her per
sonality a very attractive one.
Mrs. Vorce has had a varied
experience. Her mother died
when she was an infant and she
spent her early girlhood keeping
house for her father and brother.
Later she became successively a
newspaper reporter, a singer and
a settlement worker in New York
In all these occupations she was
impressed with the need of the
ballot for women for their own
protection and for the good they
could do the State with it.
In 1902 she was married to My
ron B. Vorce, of Cleveland, and
moved to that city. There she
became interested in the scdoo's
and after her fight to improve
them she was more than ever im
pressed with the fact that women
needed a direct voice in politics.
She became active in suffrage
work and is now an officer of tt e
state organization there. She is
helping in the Pennsylvania cam
paign because she believes that
a victory here this year will set
a good example for her state.
Cider Making.
Nick Hohman will begin to
make cider Wednesday, Septem
ber 8th. and the mill will be in
operation every Wednesday after
that during the season.
Sheep Dogs.
We have been told on best au
thority that dogs are unusually
active this year in this county
and that large Bums of money
are being paid for sheep that they
have killed. We understand that
the court will decide a case or
two next week as to whether
dogs may be permitted to run at
large and kill sheep.

burg, is visiting her father, Wil
