' I Judge Sarah T. Hughes of the 14th District Court, Dal las, emphasized the fact that women have not taken advan tage of their rights of citizenship when she addressed the an ' Bryan-College Station Branch of The American Association of University Women on Saturday at the Maggie Parker Dining Room. Judge Hughes gave some of the* historical background of women’s fight to attain citizenship, one of the highlights of which was the Seneca Declaration of: Women’s Rights. She emphasized that the doors of opportunity are opening wide to women of this century, but progress has been slow due to pre judice against women in industry and professions, failure bn the part of women to realize their duties of citizenship, and inertia. She said that it is up to wom en to “get into the arena and fight” and not be “shrinking violets.” The luncheon table was decorat ed with yellow iris and bridal wreath in a copper container.
