OMEN ARE JOST EMERGING FROM THE DOLL AGE. IT ■ 18 AN AGE OF CHANGE, AN AGE OF GROWTH. Here in America* women are coming into their own much MORE SLOWLY THAN IN OTHER LANDS. Our American men have always been bo kindly, bo indulgent, bo eager tp give us every privilege, that we have hardly realized that what they gave us were PRIVILEGES AND NOT RIGHTS. -Butswe are waking last to a sense of our responsibilities, to the knowledge that we owe a duty to the law and that .the law owes us in return protection. .- , / ALL OVER THE COUNTRY WOMEN ARE WAKING UP. The suffrage movement has been dormant since Susan H Anthony died.
