June ij, iyi+1 MARYLAND SUFFRAGE NEWS 87 VOTES FOR WOMEN AND THE CHAl TAKJIAS Competition Between Suffrage Orafora and Secretary of State Will Be Keen. Some Chatitauqtias will have to forego the honor of a speech from the Secretary of State (no matter how willing anil agile he may he), hut none need \k without a suffrage speaker this summer. To Miss Harriet (irim has been given the formidable task of shaking at every Chautau- qua to be helil in North Dakota, where the voters will decide on woman suffrage in NovchiIht. Miss Kola J.afollettc will s|>eak on the "Democ- racy of Woman Suffrage" at the Nebraska Chautauquas (Nebraska is also a suffrage campaign State), while her mother, Mrs. Robert I.a- follette, will tlcl>atc with Miss Lucy Trice of Cleveland at sixty-five Chatitauqtias in Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania. NEWS FROM CONNECTICUT Automobile and Trolley Campalgna Pueh Work Forward, The suffrage campaign in Windham and Tolland counties, which o]H.'ns on Monday, is the fourth systematic campaign which has been undertaken by the Connecticut. Woman Suffrage Association since Miss Emily J'icrson became State organizer. The first was in the summer of 1911, and included the whole of Litchfield county. When that campaign opened, with the exception of Mrs. Hitchcock of Canaan and one lady in Litchfield, it was not jMtssible to find a suffragist in the whole county. At the recent suffrage parade in Hartford, Litchfield county sent a con- tingent consisting of fifteen beautifully decorated automobiles, all full of the representatives of the fifteen local leagues in the county. The contingent was marshalled by Mrs. A. I". S. Taylor of Norfolk, who for the last three years has been one of the most energetic and tireless suf- frage workers in the State. The second campaign was known as the trolley campaign through three counties, ft included the principal towns and cities of New I laven, Fairfield and Hartford counties. It was undertaken in the winter, and a week was spent in each lown—nineteen weeks in all. 'The results of this campaign were immediately seen in the coming into existence of new leagues and in the enormous quickening of life in the leagues which already existed. In the following summer another campaign was undertaken, this time again an automobile campaign, in New London and Middlesex counties, and last summer, while there was no organized campaign, the shore towns all along the Sound received considerable attention from the members of the Connecticut Woman Suffrage Asso- ciation. SUFFRAGE AND THE HUMOROUS MAGAZINES Our contention that one of the chief failings of anti-suffragists is a lack of humor is Ixmic out by the fact that the leading humorous maga- zines arc with us. Judi/c has long been a friend of woman suffrage and has for more than two years published a department called "'The Modern Woman." Headers of the I'oler are familiar with many of the luifft cartoons, for we have reproduced them often, especially those of Lou Rogers, a staunch friend of the party. Within the last month I'liek has announced its advocacy of votes for woman and is pushing our cause with vigor and enthusiasm. By courtesy of the publishers we reproduce two of Mr. Keppler's striking drawings in this issue of the I'oler. Suffrage is now a popular cause anil editors lake no risk in endorsing it. Nevertheless, they expect a hearty HfpB&M from suffragists, and we urge our readers to give it. We need every avenue of reaching the pub- lic during our campaign, and we should show our appreciation of the SUppOft of popular magazines by giving preference to those which sup- jHirt our movement. Life is against us, but I'liek and lutiije are for us. The moral is obvious.—The II'mini 11 I'oler. HYGEIA DAIRY Mt Vernon Ave. and 27th St. BALTIMORE, MO. (Pari of the ice crram served at the J. G.
