Notes
Mrs. Catharine Waugh McCulloch spoke Monday before the "primer" class of women voters which met in Evanston for instructions in voting. She suggested women should begin holding political offices in the sanitary district to ensure a pure water supply. She also told women to sign up to be election judges. Women should organize to show their power. The meeting was sponsored by the Women's Christian Temperance Union with State President Helen Hood acting as chairman. Mrs. Ella Stewart, former president of the Illinois Equal Suffrage Association, summarized the history of the women's suffrage movement.
