PREFACE
While the value of prefaces has often been seriously qneetloned, It would seem
that the first publication of an original reference book filling a new and heretofor*
unoccupied field calls for some kind of an introduction to explain Its reason for
being, its aim and scope.
The time has long passed since an apology was necessary for the publishing
of a Who's Who. The idea originated in England about sixty years ago, but
was kept in aristocratic bounds until about fifteen years ago, when Douglas Sladen,
an Australian writer, revised the book and extended its scope into the useful
British volume we know to-day.
Meanwhile, this present writer had Americanized and democratized the idea
in making the first Who's Who volume covering United States subjects. It met
instant acceptance and recognition, and since that the books of that kind, which
be has created, have become the most consulted books of reference in regard to
contemporary American people that have ever been issued from the press.
After coming to New York and engaging as editor for two editions of a
Who's Who book relating to the notables of the Empire State, this writer became
convinced that there was a need for a book of that kind which would deal entirely
with women, and, with the late L. R. Hamersly, began to gather data for such a
book. That venture was, however, soon after abandoned and never taken up again.
Two years ago this present enterprise was projected and the writer was asked to
undertake its editorial direction.
To gather fresh and original data for approximately ten thousand brief biogra-
phies involves much hard work and a strenuous campaign of research and inquiry,
and the volume now presented represents two years of labor.
The reasons for a Woman's Who's Who are many. The general puiblications of
the Who's Who class give comparatively little attention to women. The one most
consulted has data of a few hundred women mixed in with the biographies of about
seventeen thousand men, but even of these women, outside of those engaged in
literature and education, the number is almost negligible.
Women's activities have increased by leaps and bounds. There is scarcely a
single field of professional or intellectual endeavor which baa not been entered by
women, and in which they have not made good. There are those living who can
remember the first opening of the means of collegiate education to women. Now the
higher education is pursued by as many women as men. Outside of the collegiate in-
stitutions, there is a vast educative force in the thousands of women's clubs, found in
all the cities and most of the villages and hamlets of the country, in which women
are studying literature, civics, sociology, current events, or are otherwise attaining
greater light and broader culture. With education has come ambition, and thus we
find womanhood asserting itself not only in those activities somewhat loosely
grouped under the name of "the feminist movement," but also in competition or
association with men in those avenues of endeavor formerly regarded as essentially
masculine.
These activities and these movements, interesting in the mass, are the composite
results of individual expression. The personalities behind them become objects of
increasing interest, and it is the demand for Information as to the careers of those
21
who are leading in or contributing to woman's larger participation In the good
causes and higher endeavors of our time, which this volume is Intended to supply.
It gives biographic data and personal statistics about women nationally, sectionally
and locally prominent in all parts of the United States and Canada, and is a new
publication, freshly made from original data secured for it with much pains and
great expense. Not a line of the biographical sketches in the book has been inserted
from any financial consideration or because of any subscription past, present or
prospective. This statement is made here, because there still seem to be a few
people who have some mfsapprehension of the facts in this particular.
Great care has been given to the securing of accuracy. Neither inerrancy nor
Infallihility is claimed, and doubtless some errors may have crept in, but it is
believed that very few will be found. As to inclusion and omission of names, there
will no douht be criticism, the editor being quite aware that some have been
omitted who should be included, for there are several such from whom or about
whom no reliable data could be procured, and who have therefore been regretfully
omitted. These cases are, however, very rare, and the publication is presented as
one unique in its class, containing valuable reference information of which about
ninety per cent, is not to be found in any other publication. It is, in fact, the
only valuable and dependable compendium of information about contemporary
American and Canadian women of comprehensive scope which has been published.
The editor acknowledges, with deep gratitude, the letters of approval and
encouragement which have come from ail parts of the country in regard to this
book, and is deeply sensible, also, of the helpful suggestions received from the
distinguished women who have acted as an Editorial Advisory Board, and from
many others in all sections. The recognition of the need for such a volume has
been almost unanimous, though a few (perhaps a dozen) women have written in
dispraise of the plan of making a book entirely about women.
Coming down to particulars, the volume contains brief personal sketches of
9644 women, of whom 6303 are or have been married, and 3341 are maidens. Every
State in the United States and every Province in the Dominion of Canada is repre-
sented. All the important lines of endeavor in which women engage (and their
name is legion) have their exponents in these pages: the arts, sciences and pro-
fessions, religion, missionary effort, education, philanthropy, charity, reform work,
social service, literature, journalism, business, official life, club life, feminist activi-
ties, and all the many ways in which women are working In and influencing the
movements for progress, for higher ideals, for better living, for cleaner politics,
and for social, educational and religious uplift
It is hoped to make Woman's Who's Who of Amebica a reference book of
permanent value and the one indispensable volume of reference for those seeking
information about the contemporary women of the United States and Canada.
It is the present intention to give the book such periodical revision as the
demand may justify, and to this end suggestions of names and Improvements are
Invited. John W. Leonabd.

A SUFFRAGE REFERENDUM
In preparing the data-sheet for Woman's Who's Who of America, the editor
realized that a very large proportion of the women interrogated would he interested,
one way or tho other, in the suffrage question, which loomed conspicuously above
the horizon of pu/blic interest. Since then the question has reached deeper interest.
More States have granted the franchise to women, a new National party has put
a wotnan-sufErago plank in its platform, and women themselves have become more
and more active, somo in the proiKiiganda for, and others in opposition to, the
further extension of the franchise to women.
So far as it was possible to do so, WoMAjf's Who's Who or America has in
this volume given expression to the individual views of the women, represented in It,
on the suffrage question. Most of those interrogated made answer to the inquiry
in regard to their sinnd on suffrage, but many did not. Somo frankly declared,
themselves to be undecided, many ignored the question entirely, and several wrote
letters asking that nothing be said about their suffrage views, for personal or
business reasons. One said: "I'm in favor of it, but don't put that in, for my
husband forbids it." This is the only Woman-Afraid-of-Her-Husband disclosed in
the entire editorial correspondence.
In a few cases the record on the suffrage question was changed in the proof
on submission, two or three striking out favorable reference and noting as their
reason for doing so the actions of the English militants, and as many others
changing "against" to "for" as a result of change of convictions.
Space did not permit the printing of elaboration of views in regard to the
suffrage which many expressed, some quite vehemently, on each side of the propo-
sition. Some of those opposed evidently expect dire results from woman suffrage,
and one is recorded' as opposed to woman suffrage "on Scriptural grounds." Many
cf those who favor woman suffrage have at the same time disclaimed any sympathy
with militancy, although the attitude of a few is expressed by the Western woman
who records herself as favoring woman suffrage and being "militant if necessary."
Another, a Wyoming woman, tells the editor: "I've voted every election for thirty
years and haven't been corrupted yet" Several of those interrogated express them-
selves as in favor of limiting the franchise for men and women alike on educational
or property qualifications.
It occurred to the editor that an analysis might be made of the data on the
subject as printed in the book which might be Informing upon the question as to
whether the women of the country really desire tho franchise, and with that object
in view he has carefully scanned tho pages to find out how many are for and how
many are against woman suffrage.
In tabulating the results, nothing has been taken into consideration except the
record as printed. Those have been recorded as for suffrage who have either said
so in those words, or have mentioned their membership in purely suffrage organiza-
tions. In this classification the calculation has not included women who have
recorded themselves as members of the Progressive or Prohibition parties without
further reference to suffrage views, for though those parties have declared for
suffrage for women, there are a few cases in which memibers of those parties
have declared themselves as opposed or neutral on tho suffrage question.
26
Socialists have been counted on the suffragist side. Those who have declared them-
selves as against woman suffrage, or as members of anti-suffrage organizations, or
who propose to confine the franchise to school or municipal questions, or to tax-
p&ying women, have been counted in the opposition to suffrage. On the other
hand, those who believe in restricted suffrage for men and women alike have been
counted in favor. In other words, the record, as made up, is of those for or against
equal suffrage, eliminating sex as a discriminating qualification.
The editor has compiled these figures from the printed record, even ignoring
his i)ersonal knowledge, in those cases where no record has been printed, of the
views of several of those who have been left out of the calculation. Those counted
for woman suffrage aggregate 4787; those opposed, 773; those who have neglected
to record themselves, including a very few who have gone on record as neutral,
number 4084. The latter number is not made up of women entirely indifferent
to the question. Some are, but among the others are some who would give little
Information on any subject not professional, and some others who gave no data
for this book, whose sketches have been written from personal memoranda which
the editor has been privately collecting for the past four years for another purpose.
As to the bearing of the figures disclosed by this analysis, it is not intended
to comment here, but perhaps it is pertinent to state that not more than a hundred
names, all told, of those used in the book, have been included solely for their
prominence as exponents of either side of the suffrage question.

1905, after having long noted the reckless and
unnecessary way In which passing tugs disturbed
the quiet and prevented sleep in the neighbor-
hood of her own home, and learning that the
same noisy condition prevailed along the East
River, to the great distress of patients In the
several hospitals of that section, she determined
on a campaign in which careful records were
made showing an astounding number of unneces-
sary noises on the rivers, and the nuisance was
abated by the passage of the Bennet bill by
Congress, which defines and restricts to a mini-
mum the amount of whistling necessary for safe
navigation. The Society for the Suppression of
Unnecessary Noise, of which she has been pres.
from Inception, was organized with leading
divines, educators, authors, hospital heads, phy-
sicians, and other leading citizens, as directors
and advisers. An ordinance was adopted by
the Board of Aldermen forbidding all needless
noise in the neighborhood of hospitals. A junior
branch, organized in the public schools with the
consent of the Board of Education, has been
formed, enlisting the children in the cause of
quiet near hospitals, or houses where serious
illness Is known to exist. Other cities at home
and abroad have also taken up the movement,
one phase of which Is in the movement which
has established the "safe and sane" idea In
Fourth of July celebrations. Occasional con-
tributor to leading magazines. Recreation:

Since going in 1899 to Cuba, where her husband
established in medical practice, she has been con-

and is pres. of the Bando de Piedad de la Isla de
Cuba (Band of Mercy of the Island of Cuba),
for the protection of children, helpless adults
and animals, and has built it up until it is one
of the most effective humane societies in exist-
ence. It maintains a refuge for abandoned
animals in the City of Havana, a free clinic and
dispensary for poor children, and a well-
organized system for humane and protective
work. She has done most effective service in
the suppression of bull-fights and other cruel
customs formerly prevalent in Cuba; has found
little sympathy with humane work among the
Cubans and has had to work against great ob-
stacles and opposition. Waged a strong fight
against cruelty to children in the Reform
School, and in many ways and places finds a
large field for humane work in Cuba. -Quaker.

HER MARRIED NAME
In Woman's Who's Who of America, the practice has been to begin the bio-
graphical paragraphs relating to married women with the surname of the husband,
followed by the maiden name of the wife in the black letter, and the married name
in parentheses. Some exceptions have been made to this rule, but in most cases the
reader consulting this book will find the particular name sought to be so classified,
as, for example : "LOGAN, Mary Simmerson Cunningham," instead of "LOGAN, Mrs.
John Alexander." This is one of many cases where the subject is most widely known
by her married name, and for that reason the following index, reversing the order
of the names, has been prepared to facilitate ready reference.
