Chaplin discussed current events with |
the usual clarity and excellence of Sc |
closed her discussion with a sugges-
ton that club women might take up |
a new subject for serious considera-
ton, that of the American soldier. |
Mrs. Chaplin described the loneliness |
which these men suffer when on their |
foreign service, the slight recompense |
they receive for their duty and the |
conditions which surround their lives |
They are, so the speaker says, less |
fortunate in many respects than the |
soldier of other countries, and while |
the safety of the nation depends on |
their loyalty, bravery and strength. |
they seem a subject to which club |
women might well devote some per-
sonal attention.
