AND CHARITY"

Problems Arising from War Situation
Years Program Offers Varied
Chances for Liberalism in Thought.

The seventeenth year of work Of the
Woman IS Alliance, one of the leading
women s clubs Of Kenosna, was opened
this afternoon with the meeting at the
Hotel haywood, with Mrs. j. Fl. Holm,
Mrs. A. E. Epstein and Mrs. Henry
Weinstock as the hostesses. The wom-
en- were delightfully."- and proftably en-
tertained by an excellent paper by Miss
Louise Cottrell, of the Kenosha Asso-
ciated Charities on the subject of
"War and Organized Charities. I"
Among other things Miss Cottrel urged
emphatically the support of the Red
Cross movements as one channel which
would help solve the gigantic burdens
of poverty brought among the depend
ents of soldiers and others made desti-
tute by the war.
The speaker held out hope that with
splendid organization and with the
backing Of the wealth of this nation,
America could keep itself free from
the terrible scourges which have fol-
lowed in the wake of war in the Euro
pean countries. This aim could not be
attained without the use of organized
charity and the expenditure of the
money where it would do the most good
The paper will no doubt help in show
ing the women of this city the part
which they can do in helping by char
ity to prevent and alleviate the suffer
ing which has in former years been a
regular attendant in the train of Mars.
The Wor.an s Alliance is a branch
of the National Alliance and has for
it's object the furtherance of liberal re-
ligion and thought by presenting the
subjects which relate to the great in
terests of life and thought, especially
along religious and philanthropic lines.
The program committee, composed of
the Mines. Emma G. Jackson, G. Ell.
Pope and Oscar Silberschmidt, has we'll
kept in mind the motto of the organi-
zation "that new times demand new
measures and new men, as each meet
ing is planned to discuss one of the
great questions, which are now arous-
ing the nation.
