New Law Expands Woman Voter Influence On School Board
Miss Alice Stone Blackwell cites a surge of 4000 women voters this year as key to electing the school committee under a new law. She notes the removal of sworn statements of property as a voting barrier for women, praising economic fairness and a widening of women's public role.

Notable women highlighted in society and honors
The report highlights Mrs. Van Renssellaer Cruger writing for Lippincott's Magazine, Belle Bilton now Countess Clancarty injured in a hounds ride, and Ensign Edith Marshall of the Salvation Army in Washington. It notes Miss Anna Willess Williams as the model for the Goddess of Liberty, Martha J. Lamb's societal roles, and Society events at Steinert Hall. It also covers girls saved from drowning receiving medals, and the German Emperor appointing five women to command regiments with the Empress Frederick as senior. Queen Victoria is noted as colonel of a Prussian dragoon regiment in 1889.
