Miss Dorothy R. “Fells. librarian at

awarded for the third question of theI
Evening Sentinel 8100 in gold contest.
Her answer to the question. "\‘i’ould ,
you vote for a woman for president 1‘" ;
was: “No. A woman should endeavor?
to rear her sons to such manhood thatI
any one of them might. well be presi-g
dent."
While in designating this reply asI
the winning one. the Evening Sentinel .
does not take a stand against wo-I
man's suffrage. there was somethingi
so womanly and idealistic in this re»
ply that the Board of Judges chose it:
unanimously.-
A majority of the answers received,
frourbotii men and women. were.
however in disfavor of voting for a
woman as president. More than than
Woman answered in the affirmative.
The humorist: allowed many oppor-p
tunitieo for clever replies to escape
them on this question. With a single.
exception written "in lighter vein".‘
answers were intensely serious. 1
Today‘s question. No. 9. is: How can}
Norwalk secure 9. Y. M. C. A. build-I
lug?" Answers will be received into
the competition until day after tomor-
row at 8 p. m.
Answers are anlving in great num-
bers to yesterday's question. "Should
buses be substituted for street cars in
Notrwalk?" One. member of the
Board of Judges stated that he con-
sidered the answers received so far
to this question are not. as a whole.
as meritorious as replies to former
questions. So although the winning
answnr may have been received.—
there's still a good chance for some-
one who would like an extra 85 to
save or spend at the holiday season.
Competition is open for this particu-
lar question until tomorrow evening
at 8 o'clock.
