Boston Store The Great - Bargain Giving Event of 1918 OUR ANNUAL SALE 'BRIDGEPORT BETS ON HINUTE WONEN Fair Sex fo Assist in Work of War Bureau Hartford, Ja The organization of a Iome Defense League of Minute Women is the plan which has been adopted by the Bridseport War Bu- reau for the mobilization of the wom- en of its city for war work. The idea was conceived by Mrs, H. W. Fleck, chairman of the woman’s committee in Bridseport and a member of the War Bureau there. It contemplates the mobilization of a group of women [ who will do any work that the bureau asks of its woman's committee. Its purpose is not to create new organi tions, but to co-ordinate agencies. The committee on woman's activities of the Connecticut State Council of Defense has expressed the { belief that the Bridgeport plan might well be copied by other town chair- men.
