Stanton Blatch’'s proposition voiced that morning in The Tribune She was in her office in the new Red Cross Building at Washingtin—tall, handsome, competent. “In time of war,” she said, *“T doubt if conscription for women could be entered on except to a very limited degree. But if war should there is no doubt that every woman owes a trémendous duty in her con- tribution to the care and comfort of the soldiers and the children of the country—her other services come aft- er those have been fulfilled, if she has time. German Children's Work. “The German women come forward in doing their duty through the able way they train their children. There are 700,000 of them who belong to the Red Cross and who understand ele- | mentary hygiene, home care of the sick and first aid. 1 should like every American woman to know those things. I should like her to ha‘{e a reliable teacher, however. Hospitals have such trouble with nurses from correspondence schools. They run the greatest danger in the world,. “In their relief work American women need discipline and organiza- tion more than they need impulse and enthusiasm. We had examples of this so repeatedly when the war first broke out. Women came to us for work, they wanted to help. ‘Will you go here or there?” ‘No, I don’t care for that’ And so it went. The women had no idea of doing what wi needed to be done, no idea of obey- ing orders, as it were. And this in spite of the fact that they meant to be helpful, ‘Women Too Personal. “Then also the women have heen so apt to want to push the personal note to its limits. .They prepare boxes for a particular family in a particu- lar country, and pever stop to thinlk | that the delivery of such a specialized parcel would be practically impo: ble. The case of the women * Who made pajamas and put molasses candy in the pockets, illustrates my point.

It is the only official organization for relief that the gov-| ernment has, and therefore the only | one that your foreign countries re- spect. For that reason American women can do their best relief work in connection with the Red Cross. Private cnterprise doesn’t get very | far. Women can start their little | pands for Buropean relief, but they can’'t get their supplies through; be. ing unofficial their passports come | twice as hard, if at all. Red Cross Absolutely Respected “The Red Cross is absolutely re- spected, though there have been re- ports that Red Cross ambulances have been fived at. This. has ‘never been true except when the cross could not be seen at a distance. Of course, ambulance drivers and nurses at the front take their chances; that is the fortune of war, not the deliberate at- tack of fighting ranks. “The Red Cross wants American women to learn how to obey instruc- tions, to follow orders, to be helpful in the right way, which is in any way that comes to hand. In so far as con- scription contributes to efficient or- ganization, to the true spirit of ecit- izenship both in time of war and in time of peace, it is a good thing. Miss Boardman has sent her relief units into every part of Europe, whose relief cars to Germany pass safely through England and whose nurses to any country are safe from the enemy. “In time of peace,” says Miss Boardman, “that women have patri- otic duty, and that is again concern- ed with the health of the nation. This time women’s work is preventive, however, not curative. Morality Due To Health of Nation. Jpon the health of the nation de- pends the morality of a nation in a way. Healthy people have saner vi- sion than weak or ill people. And to make her children healthy is a woman's first duty to her country.” “What about fostering patriotism in her children?” I asked. “Patriotism can’t be manufactured; it can only be gradually developed. I don't believe in this sentimental pa- triotism, whooping it up about the flag, and so on. . The children can get along without that. But they must be taught the patriotism of citizen, the man or woman who se the need of his country. who does his duty by his country, not only on tt Fourth of July but when war comes. at perfect | come, | | “THE ROSARY” AND “PRETTY MRS.

Daily Fashion Talks BY MAY MANTON DAINTY FROCKS FOR THE TINY FOLK OTHING makes quite such dainty frocks for the tiny folk as fine white materials embroidered by hand and here are two dresses that show most effective designs and at the same time are simple and easy to make. The baby’s dress is made in panel effect and here the panel is hem-stitched to the plain portion of the dress, but it can of course be joined in any way that may be liked, Often fine narrow lace insertion is applied over the scams. The material illustrated is handkerchief lawn, but there are numberless pretty ones that are in every way appropriate.
