DEDICATION.
To the poor women without
homes, to the little toilers who
should be in the schools and
playgrounds, to the white
slaves in their tragic bondage,
and to the children who die,
these pages are dedicated!
May every woman who is not
too idle to have a thought, or
too vain to have a soul, or too
rich in gold to have a heart,
join in the great struggle for
women's freedom!
Purity, Liberty, Justice—
these we must work for!
Miss Trax is Sti t ¦ Organizer for the Just Government League of Maryland,

Project Economical and Far-Reaching in Results.
In speaking' of the work Miss Trax said : "The caravan trip seems to
have gripped ihe imagination of our sulfragists. Or. Anna Shaw made
her first lours in a prairie schooner, ami it is like a delightful reminiscence,
now that we are so near victory, to travel once more in die budging, canvas-
topped wagon. The emotion- of peoples are stronger than their logic.
The schooner, the sleeping tent, the camp lire and the great outdoors
make a charming picture. Add to ihis the zest of spreading suffrage
propaganda in hitherto untouched communities, and Ihe sentimental appeal
of this journey i- Irresistible. Suffragists are offering a portion of their
vacation time. County resilient- urge Us m select their district; and best
of all. our most vamvd friends send us money. This is undoubtedly one
of the moat economical projects planned by the Just Government League,
and promises to he mosi far-reaching in its results."
Money! Money! Money!
Ii i- money that will make ihe caravan "go." It is money that will
-end it to even corner of the State. It is money that will put over suf-
frage arguments ami suffrage literature to waiting womankind. Dimes,
