Ad dress, State Bureau, Carter's Weekly, Raleigh, N. C 1 Mrs.; Palmer v Jerman, Suffragist. It was away back in 1914 "the" Cin- derilla days" of Suffrage organization in North Carolina that Mrs. Jerman began her work as Chairman ;of .the Legislative Committee ? of the Equal Suffrage Association; of North Caro lina. ' ' ; " ' " . '' And year, after year, to get a hear ing for the things they carry nearest their hearts, for democracy, for the right of those who submit tV authori ty to have a voice in their own gov4 eminent, suffragists fronv aH'over the ? state, following the work of their Leg islative Chairman, have climbed, the steep ascent of the narrow, stairs that wind up to the lofty galleries of the . . capitol. ;.'". And year after year have these wo men watched, while committee after committee taking a man-made prece dence has made its bow to Solon-group after Solon-grpup of ; Senators and Representatives and rode away in the chariot of the State to whatsoever dance of triumph pleased it most. t And year; after year denied the fairy coach of ratification women have trudged on foot, up and down, up and down, again and -again; patiently - studying the while the philosophy , of practical politics. For along with re markable executive ability and, a fine instinct for organization, Mrs. Jerman possesses in a rare degree, a splendid iquahty of belief m her fellow woman that is the touchstone of her leader ship. She would open wide for their advantage thedoorof every op portunity. And this firm"! conviction of their worthiness of the undying righteousness of their cause, inspires , in her fellow woman confidence and trust, that finds its reaction in the re ..''. spect of every legislator with whom quality M her , inheritance which Gil bert Chesterton has. named "the resi duum of the' Irish" the' 'optimistic spirit which-'makes for the enjoyment of a fair battle of -wits. - " ' ? v 'The decks are cleared for action," she said.-inapping out the . plans of her committee, , before the Greens boro Convention. No more part meas ures, no more . expediency bills: To rauiy, or. not to K ratify, will be the sole Suffrage issue presented to the North Carolina Assembly in . special session." I A fine unstanding figure of a wo man. : Mrs. ; Jerman . has the compelling magnetism of physical health, abounding good humor and that practical capability irfthe use of her brains, which has brought, to her offer of positions without number from the influential organization of women throughout the state, But building her "success in life on the sure foundation of well, ordered- happy home, she has for years declined offer after offer, that might have taken her away '.; from the growing son and daughter to whom she is-the devoted intelligent mother. And hearing . Mrs. Jerman discourse of schools and play grounds, of school lunches and books, of jnusic, and hats with a brevity, and sense of humor, that shows exhaus tive information on these subjects the wonder grows; where her time has 'been' found to devote to so fine nurture ing of the suffrage sentiment m the state that it has lately culmi nated in a suggestion from the courts of her "friendly enemies that she be sent as delegate to the National Con vention at San Francisco. ."
