N2  - Dora tells her grandson of how, in 1887 Argonia, Kansas, a group of men who thought women should not vote or hold office put a woman on the ballot as a joke. Includes a note about Susanna and a cake recipe; "In 1887, the state of Kansas gave women the right to vote in municipal elections. But some men in the city of Argonia, Kansas didn't think women should have a say in choosing their next mayor, so they put a woman on the ballot--as a joke. That woman was Susanna Salter--and soon the men would find the joke was on them! Narrated by a grandmother who remembered what happened on that election day, this is the true story of a woman who stood up for her right to vote and accomplished so much more." -- Amazon.com
