Every woman should know the comfort, and experience the help of “Toll ye the church bells sad and slow, And tread softly and speak low, For the old year lies a-dying.” - THE WARNING BY “THE FATHER” NE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-TWO years ago, President Washington, the Father of the United States of America, addressed congress in these words: “The United States ought not to indulge a persuasion that, contrary to the order of human events, they will forever keep at a distance these painful appeals to arms with which the history of every nation abounds. There is a rank due to the United States among nations which will be with- held, if not absolutely lost, by the reputation of weakness. “If we desire to avoid insult we must be able to repel it. If we desire to secure peace—one of the most powerful instruments of our prosperity— it must be known that we are at all times ready for war.” To President Washington's appeal the second congress of the United States responded by passing ringing resolutions pledging itself to provide ade- quate defenses. How well it kept that pledge was shown in 1812, when our infant republic sent to the front nearly 600,000 well-equipped soldiers and suc- cessfully resisted the Baitish legions. President Wilson has made the same appeal to the 64th congress. In 1793, the United States was an impoverished nation, struggling to win its “place in the sun.”’ It could ill afford the cost of prepared- Today, it is rich and mighty; the cost of carrying out the administration’s preparedness measures, comparatively speaking, would entail much less a sacrifice than was gladly made by the second congress and the people of the United States in 1793. Is America less patriotic now? The answer lies with the 64th congress, ness. “Two ways I look Two faces I present; one seamed with eld, And gray with looking on the frozen past; * One fresh as morn and fronting days to be.” IT IS EVOLUTION LOYD-GEORGE, long-time champion of the masses and as near a union workman as a fellow can be and not actually carry a hod or wield a hammer, begs the British labor unions to save the country, by ‘permitting women to work in the war munitions shops. The British lion is down on his knees begging labor unions to PERMIT WOMEN TO WORK! One way another, it is a demonstration such as this world has never before seen.
