er TSAR TES: > LY: 8, 1918, ~ DISTRICT CHAIRMEN OF WOMEN’S _ COMMITTEE OF DEFENSE COUNCIL - UNITE IN HELPFUL CONFERENCES A meeting-of the chairmen, of the woman's committee in the. counties composing, the sixth and twelfth dis- tricts was: held. inthe governaris-of- fice at the ‘capitol Saturtay.: The’ morning session opéneg ‘ati 9:30 with an informal talk by Miss Julia ‘New- ton, the state’chalrman ‘of the fagd:de- partment. Miss Newton is assacidted with Dr, Laddat thte agricultural col- lege and ig at, the head of, the, home economics department of, that institu: tion, hence she is preeminently /tittea for her position as chairman of the food department in the woman's com mittee. She explained fully how the food department receives its. irstric- tion from the government, and gives it out through the county and commun- ity units of the woman's committee. ‘Mrs. C. L. Young, chairman for Eur- leigh county, gave an account of the organization in her county, and stated that in the matter of utilizing the in- formation’on the’ food question sent out from the agricultural college Bur- leigh county was ahead of afl others in the state, Miss Newton corrovor- ated Mrs. Young's statement. Mrs. A. A. Bruce, who, has been ap- pointed chairman of the coal conserv- ation department for the state. gave! a very convincing talk on the use of native coal for all Yomestic purposes. She made it: appear that.all. patriotic women. will immediately demand that a supply of ‘lignite coal be deposited in’ their cellars. She told’a. few sim. ple‘rules for the use of this product, and several, women present instantly declared their intentions of changing their: coal habits. Mrs. A. L. Liederbach of Killdeer re- ported: the: result of an investigation the advisability of any concerted ef- fort to place women. on farms as ia: borers. Shé has concluded that in North Dakota’ no such plan should be adopted at present. She stated that it seemed necessary for unem. ployed women to make some effort te ward giving the farmers’ wives assist- ance during busy seasons. Miss Aldyth Ward, state chairman of the department of women in in dustry, told of the need. for arrange- ments being made for the care of the children whose mothers may be em- ployed. She showed that not-with- standing the opinion of many people ist in North Dakota. She proved to every woman hearing her.that the fu ture of our race depends on how the wome. of this generation are taken care of. . ‘Nne afternoon session was given ov- er to an informal conference. Coun ty chairmen and all department: chair- men present reported the work in their own counties. Plans were dis: cussed for assistance to the wives of the farmers during harvest. The fact ‘that Americanization of. our foreign born depends greatly on how the wom- ‘en of that class are approached was ‘brought out strongly. At 4 o'clock the woman's. commit- tee adjourned to the house chamber, where the council of defense chairmen jwere in session. Miss Newton spoke forcibly on the food question, showing conclusively that on every one of us, men and women~alike depends the food supply of our soldiers and _allies. She urged a wheatless diet till’ after harvest whenever possible. The nieeting closed with a Hoover she has, been conducting concerning! banquet at the McKenzie. hotel.

Vigilantes puree ooseteoteose too soy There Is need to utter a word of warning and protest to those loyal ones among us who, by some per- verse quality of sirfcerity, some in- a Saito tot ath ing the note that Germany delights to hear. The recent great thrust of the German armies has given these croakers fresh stimu- lus. In their hearts, though they know it not, though they deny It indignantly when so accused, they have accepted defeat—they are al- ready-whipped. : Could Germany ask for more than the spreading of this unwarranted at- titude of mind? It is the subtlest, the most poisonous of all forms of the multiferious German propaganda—the killing of faith and hope and deter- mination to win. “They shall not pass!” said fhe French at Verdun. These souls say: “They have passed! See how the British have fallen back !” These are not. “quitters” in other matters, They are not in any sense consciously pro-German even in this matter. They are, however, obsessed by the everlasting drip of the German idea of German efficiency. The thing to them has become’ an imponderable, foreseen conclusion. It blinds them to any vision beyond the actual facts of Germany’s military attainments. It blinds them to the military attalr vinclbility—the invincible spirit Is not theirs. , 4 This spirit we need. doubt of that. The man or the na- tion that goes all the way, that goes’ any part of the way to meet defeat | is already beaten. Though this spirit | of pessimism cannot even be consid- | ered as a rift In the lute of. the na- tion’s unity of faith and purpose, yet, | inasmuch as it exists to any extent, ft | 1s to be. deplored. For the feeling | will be found always. to link itself with other sentiments insidlously fa- vorable to Germany. There always, ac- companies it that stubborn, narrow prejudice, so shamefully unworthy ot us, against England, existing against all the evidences of fact and reason and gratitude—the nasty slur that | England. dodges her share; of the | fightIng, that the English are not) fighters, that England leaves {it to France to save the day—so far. as It fs saved! There is something peculiarly la- mentable in this distorted viewpoint. Disastrous thoughs it would be to | underrate Germany’s prodigious power of evil might, it would be fatal to be- Heve it infallible and invincible. | - Whence comes this proneness to | trumpet Germany's success and put | the soft pedal on our allies’ achieve ments? In every instance it is to be traced to some of the interminable | fotms of German propaganda, It is, as has already been said, itself the quintessence of German propaganda, | blown lke a fine pollen through the | alr when Its true nature is the least ; suspected,,,spread as $s: oftena , con- BUTTON, BUTTON, WHO SEWS IT? “== =" | “y' WOMEN DO MOTHERLY MENDING There is‘no | | 1 Flanders for just that purpose—to be mothers and sisters to the fight- ing men of. the Unitéd States.

In the “War Ballad Medley” there ai “Just a Baby's Prayer at Twilight’ and “Joan of Arc.” The reverse of the record contains “I May Be Gone for 2 Long, Long ‘ and “Sweet Eimalina, My Gal.”’ One could not ask for better dance music than is offered by this col- lection of popular songs, A tender tribute is paid to the women who are today crooning their Jittle ones to sleep while their thoughts are with the men who have left them that they may defend them, Jt is expressed in-a touching little song by Geradine Farrar on a new Victrola Record, “The. War Baby's Lullaby,” In it the mother’com- forts herself with the thought that at least she has her, baby and she prays the Lord to care for her hus- band who has re- sponded to the call of duty. A song of such sim- plicity dealing. in matters so sacred must in itself be simple, and the soothing rhythm “and gently flowing melody do much to suggest the wiet beauty of the twilight hour.
