Flanked with flags of % ma

In each and all of these coun.

been granted women by act of

Speaking of womens etiicien-

pointed to the cropping of eff

woman III her own eyes and the
eyes Of the government by that
disfranchisement. Our Nation
is engaged in the defense Of de-

more happily could they feel that
our own government had been
true to the standard il now pro-

In the present gray crisis of
our country, we must face the
unusual conditions caused by the
war, and use every means to re-
duce the nigh cost Of living,
which is becoming a burden not
only to the wage-earner, but also
to the salaried man.
We do not know how long this
war will last, but we 60 know
that It will drain our country of
her splendid young men. So
many of them, from the farms
as well as from the city, will re-
spond TO the call OF their country
that .here will be a scarcity of
labor, especially on the farm,
during the next few years, and
we must he prepared to meet
these conditions.
For their own protection,
farmers should avail themselves
of every opportunity to secure
help on their farms. which, they
admit, is already hard TO get.
For mercenary reasons if for no
other, farmers will want suff-
Gent hands to take care of their
crops, but we know our farmers
are just as patriotic as the men
who 90 TO the front.
We feel that we can help the
farmers 10 solve their problem Of
securing help during the coming
years, and they can help US by
taking our boys and girls into
their homes.
We have 2l9 wards here in the
Receiving Home, whose ages
range from few months to IS

A large number of our children

hence they will be of great value
to those people who are generous

A farm without a boy is not

sent to the various state institutions,
state hospital, penitentiary, school for
deaf, ETC., thousands of pounds of fish
Tor use on the table. This has mater
tally reduced the meat needs of the
institutions and has been a body blow

this plan is found feasible it will give
