Woman Citizen, January 5, 1918
[Image Description: The cover of Woman Citizen shows a drawing of a woman wearing a white neoclassical dress with the word "suffrage" written across her chest. On either side of here are men dressed in coattails stand on either side of her. The man to the left is pulling on her left arm and has "Dem" written on his chest. The man to her right is pulling on her right arm and has "Rep" written on his chest. At the bottom of the image is text that reads: "In the Hands of Her Friends"]<br /><br />The cover illustration is by C. D. Batchelor <br /><br />[Image Description: The second image is of a woman in a neoclassical white dress with her arms stretched out above her head and her fingers spread. Branches grow from her fingertips into a fruit bearing tree above her head. Behind her is a neoclassical building. On either side of her are the words "Woman Suffrage".]<br /><br />This image is from an original painting by Evelyn Rumsey Cary. The text at the bottom of the image, which was well known to suffragists, was taken from Proverbs 31:31.<br /><br /><em>“Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.”</em>

Educational Department, Victor Talking Machine Co."<br /><br />"'Americanization through music' A slogan of the hour. <br />Music is an universal language that needs no interpreter. It is the one common ground and most natural approach to the foreigner in welding him to the spirit of true Americanism.<br />A great movement is now sweeping the country to make firm and lasting the process of the melting pot,--to bring securely into the fold of American citizenry our adopted brothers from other lands....Song, universal in its appeal, is a deep and moving force. The Community Singing idea of war days must be perpetuated. It is productive of immeasurable good in this wholesome movement of Americanization. Nothing is more unifying and democratic than the group singing of old familiar and patriotic songs. Sing them with stirring band accompaniment,--strong, correct, inspiring!"<br /><br />Suggested song titles include "America," "Star Spangled Banner," "My Old Kentucky Home," "Battle Hymn of the Republic," "Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms," "Annie Laurie," and "Flow Gently Sweet Afton."

Beware! Men of the South [anti-suffrage handbill]
An anti-suffrage handbill which attempted to sway men's opinions by making them fearful. This one asks the reader to recall the American Civil War, which had taken place during their parents' lifetime.<br /><br />Text: <br /><br />"BEWARE! <br />MEN OF THE SOUTH: Heed not the song of the suffrate siren! Seal your ears against her vocal wiles! For, no matter how sweetly she may proclaim the advantage of female franchise, --<br /><br />REMEMBER that Woman Suffrage mean a re-opening of the entire Negro Suffrage question; loss of state rights; and another period of reconstruction horrors, which will introduce a set of female carpetbaggers as bad as their male prototypes of the sixties.<br /><br />DO NOT JEOPARDIZE the present prosperity of your sovereign states, which was so dearly bought by the blood of your fathers and the tears of your mothers, by again raising an issue which has already been adjusted at so great a cost. <br /> <br />NOTHING can be gained by woman suffrage and everything may be lost!

Anti Suffrage Bill. By Woman, was Eden lost, and man cursed [anti-suffrage handbill]
An emotional appeal from H. P. Petersen against "Woman Suffrage, that Godforsaken Evil." <br /><br /><strong>By Woman, was Eden lost, and man cursed.</strong><br /><br />If you trust her, give up all hope of heaven. She cannot love, because she is too selfish. She may have a fancy, but that is flattery. Her smiles are deceit. Her vows are traced iin sand. She is a thread of candor, with a web of wiles.<br /><br /><strong>Her Charity is Hypocrisy.</strong><br /><br />She is deception every way, hair, teeth, complexion, heart tongue and all. Regarding matrimony, I would not have a Suffragist in my presence, for all the world. It is the duty of the U..S. Government to drive that stubborn woman home, and compel her to take care of the home and the children, where she belongs.<br /><br /><strong>Down with Woman Suffrage, that Godforsaken Evil.</strong><br /><br />Any feminine entering politics, filling offices, running street-cars and automobiles, loses her motherhood. Any man who does ot defy the Evil is babylike. Woman Suffrage is a crime against the Bible and against Nature. Any feminine, who does not take care of the home, but otherwise enters politics, belongs to jail.<br /><br /><strong>The majority of men worship women as their God.<br /><br /></strong>I am not going that crazy yet. I worship God in Heaven as my God. It is an unnatural idea, to have that female image on the coin. Nature has placed man to be the head of the woman in everything and run governmental affairs. What a childish idea to let woman run mans affairs.<br /><br /><strong>The Bible demands that a woman must be in submission to man. <br /></strong><br />Turn to the Bible and read the following verses and be convinced:<br />I Tim. 2: 9-15. Ephe. 5: 22-25. Gen. 3: 16.<br />I Cor. 14: 34. I Cor. 11:3-16. I Peter 3: 1-6.<br /><br />H. P. Petersen.

Better Babies [suffrage pamphlet]
National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA) pamphlet on how woman suffrage improves children's health. <br />Cover editorial cartoon by Rose O'Neill. Originally published in <em><a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=chi.21171404&view=2up&seq=132" target="_blank" title="The Woman Voter on HathiTrust.org" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Woman Voter</a>, </em>May 1916.<br /><br />Text excerpts: <br /><br />"300,000 babies die every year in the United States before they are one year old. <br /><br />The death of a baby in at least 50 per cent. of the cases is due to <strong>preventable causes.</strong><br /><br />Five times as many babies die in crowded tenement districts as in a well-to-do quarter of a city. Lack of air and sunshine, poor food, bad sanitation, overwork of the mothers, both before and after marriage, above all <strong>ignorance</strong> on the part of the <strong>mother</strong>, are responsible for most of these deaths....<br /><br />Isn't it evident that when mothers are represented in govenment and their opinions and interests are consulted, babies have a better chance? Isn't it proved that women with the ballot do <strong>not</strong> neglect their home and babies?<br /><br /><strong>Giving</strong> the <strong>ballot</strong> to <strong>women</strong> not only <strong>helps</strong> them to <strong>do</strong> their <strong>own work</strong> more <strong>effectively</strong>, but <strong>actually increases</strong> the <strong>wealth</strong> of the <strong>nation.</strong>"

Six Reasons Why Farmers' Wives Should Vote [suffrage handbill]
National Woman Suffrage Association handbill, written by <a href="http://specialcollections.vassar.edu/collections/manuscripts/findingaids/cutler_amelia.html" title="Guide to the Amelia MacDonald Cutler Papers at Vassar" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Amelia MacDonald Cutler</a>. <br /><br />"Because the votes of the farm women would double the rural vote. Farmers have less political influence than they had before the civil war. <strong>Farmers need to get back their political power to protect their interests.</strong> Farm interests <strong>concern the farmer's wife</strong> just as much as the farmer. Farmers and their wives voting <strong>together</strong> would conserve farm interests. <br /><strong>FARMERS, YOUR BEST INTERESTS WOULD BE SERVED BY VOTES FOR YOUR WIVES.</strong>" <br />
Cutler, Amelia MacDonald

Catholic Opinions [suffrage handbill]
NWSA handbill featuring quotations from prominent Catholic clergy. <br /><br /><strong>"His Eminence Jame Cardinal Gibbons:</strong> 'The Church has taken no official attitude on the subject, but leaves the matter to the good judgment of her children as to what they think best. The statement that the Church is opposed to the enfranchisement of women is incorrect.'"

The Negro Vote in the South. A Southern Woman's Viewpoint [suffrage flyer]
NWSA flyer containing an essay by Mrs. Guilford Dudley of Nashville, TN. Mrs. Dudley addresses the fear among white Southern Congressmen that if all women are given the vote through a Federal Suffrage Amendment, the increase in black voting power will be detrimental to the nation. Dudley notes the success of "educational tests" that limit black voter registration. <br /><br />For similar arguments with regard to compulsory education, see "<a href="https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/show/331" target="_blank" title="Need of Compulsory Education in the South" rel="noreferrer noopener">Need of Compulsory Education in the South</a>."
