On the picture side of the postcard is a color-coded map of the states in the US that either supported male suffrage only (yellow states) or total suffrage including suffrage for women (black states), saying that Canada supported total suffrage completely and when will the US do the same in all states? On the back side is a note from Elizabeth Potter to Mrs. B.J. Cunningham, saying that she is at Lake Placid and should be ready to work more on the Federal Amendment in October.]
