"Why, you always entertain and instruct me, dad," she declared; "from you I've learnt so much archaeology and so much about mediaeval seals that I believe I am qualified to become a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, if women were admitted to fellowship." "They will be one day, my dear, if the Suffragettes are allowed their own way," he laughed.
There I sat and ate great quantities of cake, and discussed the tactics of the Suffragettes. I had made some comments upon the spirit of the movement in an address to the men in Pembroke, and it had got abroad, and a group of girls and women dons were now having it out with me. I forget the drift of the conversation, or what it was made Isabel interrupt me. She did interrupt me.
It is liberating types that will inevitably destroy both the "atmosphere of gallantry" which is such a bar to friendliness between people of opposite sexes and that atmosphere of hostile distrust which is its counterpart in the minds of the over-sexual suffragettes. It is arresting the change of fashions and simplifying manners. In another way also it is working to the same end.
The animation was acute, but it was purely intellectual. The guests discussed the psychology of English suffragettes, sympathetically, admiringly; they were even wonderstruck; yet they might have been discussing the psychology of the ancient Babylonians, so perfect was their detachment, so completely unclouded by any prejudice was their desire to reach the truth.
Unlike those issued by our suffragettes, calling attention to the importance of November 2, they gave some idea of what was wanted. They did not show Burne-Jones young women blowing trumpets. They were not symbolical, or allegorical; they were homely, pathetic, humorous, human. They were aimed straight at the heart and pocketbook.
Yes, you'd better be seeing about that petition, my friends, for I tell you there isn't going to be any peace till we get the franchise. 'Aw now, they'd give you anything! When the jeering had died a little, and she came to the top once more, she was discovered to be shouting 'You men 'ad just better keep an eye on us 'Can't take our eyes off yer! 'We Suffragettes never have a Day of Rest!
So you see she'd take you, without a doubt. Jove! what a pair you'd make: Miss Billy and Mr. Mary Jane! You'd drive the suffragettes into conniption fits just by the sound of you!" Arkwright laughed quietly; then he frowned. "But how about it?" he asked. "I thought she was keeping house with Aunt Hannah. Didn't she stay at all with the Henshaws?" "Oh, yes, a few months.
Take away the number you first thought of. Divide it by three, and what is the result?" There was an awed silence. Surely the Russian, expert at evasion as he was, could not parry so direct a challenge as this. He threw away his cigarette and lit a cigar. "I understand," he said, with a tinkle of defiance in his voice, "that the Suffragettes, as a last resource, propose to capture Mr.
As an old man I have affectionate relations with a number of suffragettes, as they dare not deny; that is to say, I long ago accepted woman suffrage as inevitable, whether for good or evil, depending upon whether the woman's movement is going to stop with suffrage or run into feminism, changing the character of woman and her relations to men and with man.
It was only by mob misunderstanding that the suffragettes were conceived as viragoes, just as it was only by mob misunderstanding that the members of the Society of Friends were conceived as desperadoes. Even in battle nothing could be more decorous or constitutional than the overwhelming majority of their "pin-pricks."
