Dear State Chairman:
II know your clubs are anxious to
know the plans of the council of the
general federation. Please give this
information at once to your state
papers:
The federation has offered to the
Red Cross an efficiency service that
means not only the enlisting of e
two millions of people for various
forms of service, but testing them
so that such capability will be GER
titled. So far as we know, no other
organization plans this certified see
vice. Work is to be organized I'M
der six headings: Executive, cleri-
cal. welfare, supplies, commissary
and transportation. A central
committee of six will work through
the state units.
THE departments of work will
also make lists of practical forms
of service, each under it's own head,
and the lists will be sent out through
the state presidents.
You will be glad to know that
by a wonderful spirit of consecra-
ton, enthusiasm and determination
to use all our abilities to the utmost
in the service of the country.
Truly yours,
"Alice Amos Winter,
Chairman of Press"

in this great state of ours and asks
for their cooperation and invites

days, when the horizon of our club

wonder that we turn for new ideas
to the wave which has been spread
ing yer the country, casting up the
business and professional women to
the ranks of the club women and
not forgetting to cultivate a sympa-
thetic understanding of all women

Patriotism on the part of Ameri-

war in this country, is the motive
for much true nobility of character
in service for others, and has filled

flag over their building tomorrow
