Consulting the Oracle
Picture postcard titled "Consulting the Oracle", showing a young child with "Women's suffrage" written on her skirt, reaching for a spider's web, with three adults behind her, and a temple with the word "Experience" and a skull and bones on the front in the background. The text reads: "(Male and female anti) Oh great oracle we would be rid of this child. We have fed it only on opposition on contumely on anger on persecution and yet it grows and flourishes beyond reason. (Oracle) Oh foolish people know you not that you have fed it on the food of the gods".
