how far women have come in the cause of freedom. It is a time to delve into the particular attributes that women can hring to the national scene and to further ekterrnine the best utilization of those attributes in the cause of civil rights. Only a short time ago - relatively speaking women were denied the right to certain privileges of citizenship which were intended for all those who are members, so to speak, of the United Stall's of America. For more than one hundred years women in this Nation tried to achieve fu 11 citizenship, the right to take part in the political and social life of their time, to stancl on a plane of equal Imman dignity with 111<'11 in their personal relationships. Not one hundred per cent achievement has been obtained, hnt step by step women have come far C'nough lo look hack and to sec where thcv started, and to evaluate how they reached their present status. The story of women's rights and the story of civil rights for the Negro arc stories that deserve telling. They arc stories of gallantry and devotion, and sl1011 Id ])(' considered a right part of our common heritage. I urge' you to study ancl learn more of the struggle involved in the cx-utury prior lo August 26, 1920, when the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitutiou, known as the Suffrage \111endnwnt, was proclaimed effective. I say this lx-cnuse knowing and understa11di11g so111dhi11g of the social force's involved in tlw woman s11ffrage movenu-nt will enable 11s to cope with the problems or the present that confront 11s squarely. There ur« tl10.s<' who would i11cl11lgc in tlu- aq..(111ncnt that women hnvc lost rather than gained hy thc happeni11gs ill th<' nrcn of WOJll.111 s11flrag<'.

of freedom, as most certainly the advancement of all civil rights within our time will hc looked upon by posterity as a gain for tl1e cntirc human race. Again may I emphasize that the story of woman suffrage is especially meaningfnl for us toclay, when minorities are attempting to advance. As in the days of the Abolitionists, the Bill of Higbts is under attack. The defenders of injustice and greed again seek to crush those who clissent from their inhuman values. In a time when Americans arc persecuted for their political ideas and associations, it is heartening to sec how devoted patriots of the past faced and overcame similar restrictions on their right to think and speak and publish. One of the women abolitionists, Lydia Maria Child, said: "Posterity will marvel at the hardness of our prejudice on this suhject, as we marvel at the learned and conscientious believers in the Salem witchcraft. So easy is it to see the errors of past ages, so difficult to acknowledge our own." Women were in the center of the long and bitter struggle to end chattel slavery in the United States. Some achieved fame, hut most were '\mobscrvccl and unapplauded," as has been noted in warm tribute. And all had to break through the higotry, not absent in abolitionist circles, themselves, which confined their natural sphere to domestic concerns. In the fight to free the Negro slave, women gained a deeper conviction of their own rights. They found that the ascent of Aml'rican women could not proceed without the liberation of Negro people. And in a hard school, braving ahnsc and violence, they learncd how to organize' for political ends. Unity was forged between white women and their Negro sisters; and at the same' time strong solidarity of aim ancl action was established between the women anti-slavery fighters and the most advanced of the Abolitionist men. Tlw history of the battle for woman's rights is thns inseparable' from the movc·rnt•nt for the Nc'gt·<i's liberty. Pl'rhaps not so familiar to the average 1wrso11 of our time is the lifr of i\foria \VC'slclll Chapman. Susan B. Anthony, Lucy Stcme, Carrie Chapman

Catt, and others; have become keywords in lx-hulf of woman's rights. B11t I would like to tell a little about the inspiring life and accomplishments of Maria Weston Chapman. She was one of twelve enterprising women who, in the fall of Hn-1, organized the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society. This pioneer group was called "mad," "fanatical," by the press and pulpit, hut in a short time none of the members had a house large enough to accommodate a meeting. At one crowded gathering, in Bennett Street Church early in 18:35, sixty women joined the society. One former slave who grew to legendary stature while guiding others to freedom was the fabulous Harriet Tubman. At first glance slw was unimpressive in appearance - a mere five feet tall - hut piercing eyes looked out frorn under a turban that always swathed her head: it was worn to conceal a deep scar in her skull, left by an iron weight an overseer had thrown at IJ<'r when she was only fifteen years old. In her life she suffered from spells of unconsciousness as a result of the blow. She was born a slave on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Wlu-n she married a free Negro, her own status was 1mchanged; when her master's death in 1819 made it seem likely that she would h(• sold, she heggccl her husband to go North with her. When he ref11~ed, she· chose' frcNlom without him, and markher hazardous way alone to P<'1111S) 1vuniu and [recclom. Harriet Tubman was then nearly thirtv vcars old. She became a "cond11ct;ff;, on the Underground Hailroad. During a period of ten years she made nineteen journeys into slave territory and brought hack more than .'300 men, women, and children.

AMICETTE
It was on a Sunday evening in 19.55 at the monthly meeting of the Amicae Club of Washington, D.C. that Mrs. Hattye Tillett expressed the idea of having the children and granclchildrcn of the Amicae organized into a civic and s o cia l p;roup. Other members agreed with the idea and asked their sponsor, Soror Esther C. Peyton, to <lo the job. The word Amicae means "friend," so the members of that club arc friends to each other as well as friends of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority. Having little friends to help carry out the ideals of the parcut organization would mean much toward the development of the youth of the clay. The Arnicette Club was organized on February 19, 1955. The membership was composed of Amicae daughters and grandchildren, Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity children and granclchilclrcn, Zeta Phi Hetu Sorority children and grandchildren and other children of junior high school grades. Tenth grade children have since been admitted to
the club. The first officers were Paula Cranison, president; Frances Hall, vice president; Barham Weaver, recording sec-
