Regarding this population change, Stephen Kern notes, "The movements of populations to cities transformed simple rural societies into more complex urban centers." Note that all the modernist fictions we read in this class are set in metropolitan cities such as Dublin and London.

Factories were shut down, farms and homes were lost to foreclosure, mills and mines were abandoned, and people went hungry. The resulting lower incomes meant the further inability of the people to spend or to save their way out of the crisis, thus perpetuating the economic slowdown in a seemingly never-ending cycle.

In order to locate the snipers in the enemy positions, dummies were built and fitted with a helmet. The dummy head was held out of the trench and if the enemy fired at it, it gave away its position. The laughter of the soldiers suggests that their plan was successful.

"A group of suffragettes marching for women's voting rights, circa 1910."

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
In 19th century Glasgow, like the rest of the UK, a woman's role in society was that of child bearer at home.

Society dictated that politics was as far from the mind of women as possible. That was a world for men only. Women were not allowed to vote.

That changed with the industrial revolution. Large numbers of women found themselves in full-time employment and were afforded the opportunity to meet in large groups and discuss and debate the issues of the day, namely political and social.

From a Glasgow perspective, this saw a rise in women demanding the vote from around 1870 with the formation of the city's first suffrage society.

Records speak of a large scale congregation of women meeting in Glasgow Green in 1872, however, most demands took the form of less public meetings and petitions to those in power, advocating for a change in law to allow women the right to vote.

But with the formation of the Women's Social and Political Union in 1903 by Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughter Christabel, things would soon turn militant throughout the UK and especially in Glasgow.

Born out of a frustration at the slow progress of the suffrage movement, the 'suffragettes' (as the press called them) believed in more active participation to draw in young, working class women under the motto 'deeds not words'.

And with a Scottish headquarters set up on Bath Street in Glasgow in 1906 this would soon take the form of violence, hunger strikes and law breaking.

As detailed by Douglas Skelton in his book Glasgow's Black Heart: A City's Life of Crime, windows were smashed, post boxes had acid thrown over them, telegraph lines were cut and empty buildings were set on fire up and down the country, with many Glaswegian women travelling down to London to take part in demonstrations.

In 1909 three suffragettes staged a protest on the roof of the old St Andrews Hall, the site where the Mitchell Library now stands, with a plan to break through the roof and disrupt a political speech by the Earl Of Crewe in front of an all male audience.

Church services would also be disrupted at Glasgow Cathedral, politicians were attacked, courtrooms disrupted and art works in galleries defaced. Symbols of male preserves were also attacked, golf courses were dug up, cricket pavilions torched and horse racing venues hit by arson attacks in places in and around Glasgow.

Glasgow then started to see real violence in 1913 and 1914, as two women, Ethel Moorhead and Dorothea Chalmers Smith, were jailed for eight months each for breaking and entering and attempted fire-raising at a property at 6 Park Gardens in the city.

Moorhead would become a symbol of the movement in Scotland, going to jail many times and becoming the first woman in the country to be force-fed through a tube. The tactics then moved onto small bombs (some made from tin cans and pipes), with the Kibble Palace in the Botanic Gardens targeted in January 1914.

Newspaper reports detailed how a caretaker, who found one of the bombs, very nearly lost his life as he snipped the fuse to prevent a further explosion. In April that year three small bombs went off in Belmont Church on Great George Street in the west end (causing little damage), before the biggest attempt was made to disrupt the social fabric of the city, and one that, had it been successful, would have caused a full blown catastrophe.

Not long after two bombing attacks on different churches in London, the Glasgow suffragette movement attempted to blow up the aqueduct serving the city's clean water supply from Loch Katrine.

Two powerful bombs had been placed next to one of the structural supports leading from the Loch, about 42 miles outside the city, to the reservoir at Milngavie. At the time this reservoir supplied over 50 per cent of Glasgow's water.

Remarkably, the city avoided disaster through sheer luck and nothing else.

First the lit fuses burned out before detonation on both bombs, perhaps due to the bad weather. Secondly they were spotted by an eagle-eyed watchman.

He had been posted to the aqueduct by the British Government who, in a panic over the recent spate of bombings and arson attacks, placed people on patrol in public areas and railway lines to check for bombs.

Nearby, a handbag was found alongside two trowels and a placard which stated that the destruction of the aqueduct was in protest against Emmeline Pankhurst's recent imprisonment.

With Britain's entry into the First World War on the August 4 that year stifling further protests, the eventual introduction of the Representation of The People Act of 1918 introduced the right to vote for women over 30 (who met a minimum property qualification), before the Representation of The People (Equal Franchise Act) of 1928 brought into law universal suffrage.

Who knows what more might have happened in Glasgow if the First World War hadn't curtailed the suffragette movement's efforts.

One thing is for certain, universal suffrage should be remembered as a triumph - a triumph achieved by women who fought for it by any means necessary, in Glasgow and every other town and city across the country.

We owe it to those Glasgow women never to forget.
