Thi wax th' statement of Miss Florence Wattles of Iosansport in her address Thursday afternoon hefore the members, and quests of the -enorme study class at the hih m linol.

Kavt tum h of her address over to analyzing the sinni fi-;i;ice of the recent election, and its probable influence upon the suffrage cause. "The women of the west undoubtedly re-elected Prrs't Wilson," she asserted, '"and it must at. last ! granted, in view of the complete re-alisrnment of the western states, that women are at lat a potent fartor in American policies. In fact. I don't believe there is anyone really 'alive' in America today who i? not in sympathy with woman suffrage. The Anti-suffrage organization is clearly traceable to the honor Interests which have entrenched themselves behind 'the woman in the home.' Rut they are not fooling the intelligent men and women of the day. Thoutrh the antif uft racists sent strong workers in1o the state of West Virginia this fall, they did not fool the intelligent men of that state. It is my firm belief that the only reason that suffrage was defeated in that state this f.ir was because men were more interested in the national liht and I he meaning of its outcome. Therefore, had the stiff racists of West Vitirinia not made a separate issue of their cause, but tied it up with one or another or all of trie Iiis itutions behind the national election they would have won. because lli'-y would have been able to hold the attention of the men whom these questions are perplexing. IrcIicts Ballot fominz. do pot think it will be lone 1 eforo we have the ballot If it is tru as patently it is. that the women of the west elected Wilson, then thi administration cannot very vvHI refil l" to hear our plea for the rational amendment. Hughes stood IX r Americanism." Wilson stood for 'Americanism. Vet neither could richtly stand f'f 'Americanism.' as that uord is popularly understood, and refuse to hear the cause of suffrage." Miss Wnjtlrs dwelt at some length opon the siirnita-a !ce of the Furopean war. the crass materialism whvh brought it about and the conira.tin: spirit which had led Anieri a to her d term inution to keep o it of the imbroglio.

The children of Navarre place entered into the spirit of the iood Will wer-K campaign last evenincr when they presented a charming little playlet entitled "Niehl liefore Christinas Ore-am."
