It seems that Atlanta has been entertained for tiio last few days by a convention of brainy women, but we Georgians, esp • 'ialy ‘lie women do not appreciate sermons and speeches from women. If they would use the talent that God has endowed them with in their home circles, training their chil dren and neighbors children and preaching every day by living a quiet, Christian life at home, and in the church, there would not be so much neqd for the vote of women to help reform the ballot box or to make just Laws. God never intended women for such work. He only intended for them by their pure, innocent, dependent lives, to influence their 1 husbands, brothers, and sons to love respect and defend, women as long as life lasts and if they do not the women are to blame to some extent by their going astray from the plan God has wisely I arranged for them.
