    DescriptionPostcard shows a color cartoon of a little girl standing at a podium, speaking to a group of young girls. Behind her are three signs, two of them read, "Give Us the Vote," and "We Want our Rites and Meen to Git Them." She is standing in front of the third sign. Her sash reads, "Votes For Wimmen." Across the top it reads, "We Women must stand together." The back had a message written on it and then an article glued over the message. Part of the article is torn away, though, and the message is not legible.

    This postcard to Miss Harriett Quinlian Sherman Institute (Indian School) in Riverside, Ca., was sent in September of 1914 from a Colorado relative.
