Jasper County Democrat, Volume 23, Number 47, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 September 1920 — DEMOCRATIC WOMAN’S MEETING [ARTICLE]

DEMOCRATIC WOMAN’S MEETING

At Lafayette Was Largely Attended, Says The Times. ,The Democratic ladles made a splendid start in the campaign on Tuesday afternoon and evening—the first being a conference of the comand workers and the latter a public gathering at the Jackson club which was filled with women who evinced the keenest interest. Miss Julia Landers of Indianapolis, made the principal adr dress and received much applause as well as the closest of attention. Mrs. Charles Quinn of Carroll county, made an interesting speech. Mrs. Ura Gwin of Rensselaer, made a “talk” which approached a mighty good address —although we have her word for it that she can not make a speech. Mrs. Gwin talked good sound political sense minus all flourishes, explained the League of Nations in an understandable way and told the ladies why she was a Democrat. With her it was a matter of study and conviction since all her relatives were on the other side. Those who heard Mrs. Gwin liked her—liked her talk and her sincere aggressive attitude. The ladies say that they will insist on Mrs. Gwin coming back to Lafayette later in the campaign when they will endeavor to have the largest ladies meeting ever held here. —Lafayette Timep.
