“THE LITTLE STORE WITH THE GOODS” 
NEARING ITS END 
Our clearance sale is about over, not for want 
of merchandise—but because of new spring goods 
coming in. To make room for new goods—was the 
reason of price cutting on the winter goods. Being 
overstocked—due to unseasonable weather in No- 
vember and December, we cut deep into the selling 
prices and these prices continue for ashort time only.

most finished, a clever characteriza-

SUFFRAGE LEAGUE MEETING. 
The Manchester Equal Suffrage - 
league held a most interesting meet- 
ing at the home of Mrs. J. F. Rabardy 
Monday afternoon, 
Pinkham of Colorado told of the 
granting of suffrage in that state, She 
told of the hardships of the pioneer 
days when women worked hard and 
struggled with the men. ‘“Accord- 
ingly,” she said, ‘‘when it came to 
the question of the ballot, men saw 
no reason why women would not be 
a help to them in politics, so granted 
them equal franchise.” She said she 
had lived all her life in Colorado and 
had voted since she was old enough. 
Now, just because she had gone a few 
miles over the boundary into another 
state, this right had been taken away 
from her, and as she said, “Some- 
how, it doesn’t seem just right.” The 
suffragists- of Massachusetts are to 
have a parade in Boston on May 2. 
Anyone wishing to march can obtain 
parade pledges from Miss Rabardy 
at 52 Central St., or from Miss Leach, 
41 Central St.
