Fuller of Framingham whose work is sculpture is favorably known in art circles, has designed a medallion for the Framingham Equal Suffrage league, a plaster cast of which was on exhibition at the Suffrage booth at the Framingham fair. The design shows three heads in profile, in low relief, a man, a woman and, between and below them, a child. The thought accompanying is in letters at one side of the placque which is about eight inches in diameter, "Each unto each the rounded complement." The design of the three heads shows delicacy as well as strength of character, the ideal family, with perfect serenity and unity of interests in the home. It is a beautiful piece of work and was much admired by those who saw it. Some very artisitc posters from the state headquarters were exhibited on the wall at the back of the booth and a large map of the United States, showing the suffrage and the campaign states was suspended from the upper window. Sanitary drinking cups with a suffrage rhyme on them were a novelty and "Votes for Women" postal cards of various designs. The booth was presided over by Mrs. Manfred Bowditch, Miss Kingman, Mrs. M. E. Thayer, Mrs. and Miss Irving, Mrs. A. P. Sherman and others."
