If the ladies OF this community
would only stop to consider the many
advantages OF the American Woman s
League in addition to the beautiful
chapter house, We will have built for
US as soon as we have 80 members,
we would soon have enough members
to entitle US to the chapter house.
Men work effectively when they
work to a definite purpose. This is an
opportunity for the ladies. Here is a
proposition which will make all the
magazine subscriptions in Leavenworth
count on the chapter house. All we
pay for is the magazines-for that we
get the magazines. The chapter house
and all the rest is our premium.
Frankly-you do not understand the
plan, do you7 You are willing to3
You agree that the building would be
nice to have? Why? 1t would be
pleasant place to go evenings. The
concerts, the music, the educational
opportunities-isn't this worth while2
You are not asked to donate to this
cause. The money is ready and will
be sent here to be spent just as soon as
80 members have completed the mem
bership requirements. The magazines
pay the premiums.
All Leavenworth' friends should
send every possible new subscription
through The Echo or other friends
here. Make every subscription help
build the chapter house.
The magazine business is being sys-
tematized by the American Woman's
League. Publishers have been scram-
bling for subscriptions, and giving all
sorts of subscriptions, and giving all
sorts of premiums. The wasteful trav-
cling agent and the worse premium
plans are being given up. Instead,
the league, thru its members, gets the
subscriptions, and the commission that
would ordinarily be wasted is devoted
by the league to the building and up
keep Of Peoples University at Uni
versity City and beautiful chapter
houses all over the United States.
The Peoples University year ago
was only dream. The league is only
fourteen months old. Today, the first
OF the six great buildings of the univer-
sity, the academy OF fine arts, is built
and occupied. The cost Of this beau
tiful building alone is over SIPS 900.
The Peoples University is giving in
struction by correspondence to thou
sands. Complete lesson-by-mail courses
embracing over two hundred separate
subjects are now ready. Members
may take as many OF these courses as
they desire. The minor children OF
all members are also welcome to any
courses desired. Think Of this great
opportunity to educate your children
without any cost whatever,
A booklet on the courses now ready
may be had on request at The Echo
office, or you may write direct to the
Publicity Department, American Wo-
mans League, University City, St.
Louis, Mo-, for any detailed informa-
ton you may desire.
Among the courses which are given
free to all members Of the league may
be mentioned, teachers courses, arith-
metic, agriculture, journalism, book
keeping, stenography, home economics,
drawing, sculpture, art, embroidery,
dressmaking, music, photography, jew
elery engraving and designing, pen
manship, ceramics, leather work, short
story writing, business courses, millin-
cry, etc.
Remember-all we pay for is the
magazines. The chapter house and all
the rest is our premium. Send your
application in now to the Echo Office.
We now have three members of the
league in Leavenworth, as follows:
w. H. Studebaker, Box So
