The general direction is in hands of the Board
! of Control of which Rose Jansen Quincy, Ill,
! is the Chairman. She .ery much desires to
make this the best program ever given by the
L.H.W., but in order to do so she must have
| the co operation of every Loyal Home Worker
| who expects to attend the Reunion, or who,
! though absent, can send some special contribu-
tion in the way of greetings suggestions for
the good of the Order.
If anyone has poem to recite or song to

those who are going, communicate also with
the Editor and with one another through tho
LII. w. columns, so that the necessary enthusi-
asm may be engendered. 1t is only by writing
and thinking and talking and wishing and
doing that anything is mpllshed In these
days of rapid living Let think and talk
and plan about this Reunion, and show that we
are in earnest in desiring the very best program
IN patriotism and progress that can be devised.
LOYAL HOME WORKERS BADGE.
Sixth National Reunion, l. INV, voted to
have an L.H.W. badge and in conformance
with this the officers and committee have re-
ceived designs. The design that seems most
appropriate, made by prominent manufacture
ing jeweler is a old-rmmed shield of white
enamel bearing a sprig of blue forget. me nots
and the letters " L.H.W." in red. Thus the
shield and flower of the L.H.W. have been
beautifully combined with the National colors.
The whole design is chaste and artistic.
Bnt ss to the cost there is question. This
design would cost if made as stated 10 cents
each. The question is: DO the Loyal Home
Workers want TO pay that much? Let US hear
from you, one and all. W., as it will be
necessary to know whether these badges will
sell before ordered. They are cheaper every
way than any have seen similarly gotten
up, and yet it may be considered best to have
a cheaper design.
Any expression concerning this should be
sent in during the next two weeks. Those who
like the present design, and would like 10 place
order for il on file, should address Amos l..
Seaman, Secretary, /. II. W., 516l Minerva Ave-,
ST. Louis. No. No orders will be placed until
the purchase of badges is assured in advance.

yourself such promise. Try hard to get one
new member, and do not stop trying till you
