Soon may I follow. when friendships de.

And from loves shining circle the gems
drop awayl
When true hearts lie withered, and fond
ones are flown.
Oil who would inhabit this bleak world
alone?
While warning OF our unprepared.
ness to protect ourselves is shouted
TO men from one end of our smiling
land to the other. no one thinks to
warn women that, in case OF danger,
they. save in rare instances, are help
less as babies in a crisis. The man
who is well-to-do reads his morning
paper as he goes to business.
Carefully he keeps abreast OF the
times. He retrenches whatever ex-
trayaga lcies he may have INDUCED in.
II the article he has Just read in
his pap5r Is of grave importance for
the miffs of American men to pom
der over. he sees to 1t that every man
in his employ has a copy of it as
well az having the vital points ex-
planned But the last thing such q
man thinks of is to bring that pa.

lily, talking 1t over with his wife, his
young daughters and sons.
On the contrary, he endeavors to
keep from them the stringency of the
times, tle falling off of business. He
does not want them to know care or
worry unless 1t should become impos.
sible to ward 1t from them longer,
There was never a greater error.
Women should not be kept in the dark
even before the first note of danger
has been sounded. The rich and the
poor should be brought to realiza.
tion of their unpreparedness. What
national disaster would mean to
each and every woman they should
ponder over.
II the husbands and fathers who
have shielded them from the world
storms were suddenly called away
how many of them could valiantly
take up the battle of life and fight
1t as the women are doing now in
other lands? Wealth and power may
take flight in a single hour. How
are the women who have been used
from the cradle to luxuries, killing
time in girlhood in the pursuit Of
pleasure. to meet dire want and sui.

II is the duty of every woman tc
clip of certain amount Of luxuries
that she will not feel the actual need
Of and to do her share to help tC
maintain the great cost that is fac

resist the foes which might attack
US.
No daughter should be brought up
in these times as helpless dolls. Every
girl should be taught the value OF
work and how to be self supporting
They should have thorough knowl
edge of what is going on; a knowl'
edge of what they can do to help their
