"If any evidence were needed of the earnest
desire of women to cooperate with the govern
ment at the present time this willingness to
throw aside all other demands and considera-
tons and to place themselves wholly at the
service Of their country would prove that some
thing more than enthusiasm has gone into the
question, What can l do?'
There are ten members Of the woman'S
committee Of the Council Of National Defence.
Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, the beloved dean of
suffrage work and Honorary President of the
American Woman Suffrage Association, is the

SlGg Ida TarbeN Explains the Drafting for Service
of Ten Women to Represent the
Whole Country

"The government, realizing all this difficulty
and confusion, wanted clearing house and
certain reliable agencies which could bring
into cooperation this dfTused enthusiasm and
effort of women. The solution was the APP
pointment of this committee of representa-
tive women from all over the United States
women who are skilled in organization work,
vet who are willing to abandon all organiza-
ton feeling and for the time being to relegatc
to the background certain big vital interests
to which many of them have given years of
their lives These women were drafted by the
government with the idea Of having each sec
ton of the country represented. The con-
nection of these officers with existing organi-
cations was not considered at all
"When l say drafted, l mean literally what
the word implies. We were drafted into ser
vice as soldiers would be and we responded
as soldiers respond.
"The Secretary of War, who is chairman of
the National Council of Defence, sent out
summons on April %. Not woman on the
list had an inkling Of what was to come. Yet
by May 2 all except two were present in Wash
ington. The two exceptions were the member
from California, who could not possibly arrive
before the 4th, and another member who was
detained by a death in her immediate family
on the very day of the summons, and who ar
rived on the fifth day after the meeting began

offer was accepted as frankly as it was made
and the Woman's Committee of the Council of
National Defence reaped the benefit. We held
our first meeting at these headquarters on
May 9.

lined it at this early date, is this We shall

Administration had succeeded in August in
gaining the consent of Congress to the APP

resources of the nation. 1t has been working
ever since, quietly gathering what it needs,

taken up all the syrup that it will absorb. Let

ORANGE AND PINEAPPLE MARMALADE
This will be found delicious TO serve with hot
biscuits. It is so good that no butter will be re-
quired. Peel one large pineapple; shred the flesh
from the core and add four oranges and one
lemon that have been cut (unpeeled) in quarters

kettle and add three pnts OF cold water for each
pint of fruit.
Set aside covered until the next day; then boil
slowly until the rnd of the fruit is very tender.
It will take three more hours. Set aside until
the next day. Measure the cooked fruit pulp and
add one pint of sugar for each pint of pulp. Let
boil rapidly until very thick and jelly-lke. Store
in glasses and cover with parafin when cold This
variety takes little longer cooking than mar
malade made from citrus fruits alone
PINEAPPLE SYRUP
This may be made from the cores of the fruit
that are generally thrown away

SCRIPTURE LESSON-Read John a.

GOLDEN TExT-Jesus saith unto him,
am tho vav the truth, and the life, no
man cometh unto the father, but by me-
John 14;6
The purpose of Johns gospel is re-
yealed in John 20 81. 1t was to prove
that Jesus is the Christ, the Son Oh
God. and to prove it in such a way
that men might believe it in their
hearts. and thus obtain, through that
belief, eternal life in his name. There
fore the best method of review for
the lessons of the past quarter Would
be to 90 over the lessons one by one,
and find out how it is that this great
truth, which brings life to men, is IL
Illustrated in each of the several les
sons. The object of such q review
should be to make Jesus as real to us
as If we were with him and his disci-
pies, and could realize that the Word
is now dwelling among us, full of
grace and truth, giving daily Of his full
Hess and 'grace for grace.s (Ch. 1 Ia
16). Jesus is "the way" the way
to heaven, the way to all that is high
est and best on earth. the way Of life,
the way to the Father, the goal OF all
human aspirations, the way out of all
human darkness and sin, the way to
holiness and to God. Jesus is also the
truth, the revealed truth about God.
He revealed the forgiveness of God for
the sins of men, the right way of liv-
ing. Jesus is the life, the source OF
life, the life itself, the true life here
on earth, and the eternal life which is
to abide forever. Thus our entire re-
view centers about Jesus Christ. 1t
would be good to have map chiefly
of the vicinity of the Sea of Galilee
to use in this review.
Lesson |. Jesus, the Life and Light
of Men. This is the central truth OF
the gospel. Note the pre-existence Of
Jesus Christ as the eternal Word, I'm
the beginning with God" Then again
we see it as plainly showing forth or
declaring him to be God. We see him
also as the Creator of all things.
Lesson IL. John the Baptist. This
is lesson of Johns testimony to Jesus
as the Son of God; also that Jesus was
the Lamb of God, eternal, pre-existent,
the One who was baptized by the Holy
Ghost, showing. us the real natur

who and what he was and
made him the perfect Savior.
Lesson III. The First Disciples Of
Jesus. Andrew and Philip discovered
the Messiah of whom Moses and the
prophets did write, and revealed him
unto Nathaniel, who discovered in
Jesus the Son of God and the King Of
Israel Relate how Jesus found these
disciples, their names and their char
acteristics, and why each one was espe-
cially fitted for his particular work.
Lesson w. His Fathers House.
Jesus, manifesting himself as the Son
of God, the Father, was the Ruler OF
Gods house, and drove from it those
who defiled it by making that house a
house of merchandise.
Lesson ", The Savior Of the World.
Jesus, as the only begotten Son of God,
can give eternal life to those who be-
lieve on him. Describe the character
born again, and what is meant by be-
ing born of water and of the spirit
Lesson vi. The Woman of Samara.
Jesus declared himself to this woman
as the Christ, and also as the giver of
eternal life; therefore he was God.
Referring to the last lesson, emphasize
what Jesus meant by his reference to
Moses and the brazen serpent, and
bring out the fact that the water of
which he speaks is the gift of everlast-
ing life.
Lesson VII. The NobIeman's Son.
Jesus made his glory to be seen a sec
ond time in Cana of Galilee by healing
sickness although not present at the
bedside of the sick one. Healing and
faith are co-partners.
Lesson VIII. The Pool Of Bethesda.
Again Jesus manifests his power by
healing by his bare word the man who
had been infirm thirty and eight years,
and who was utterly helpless and hope
less. Bring out how the man showed
his faith. Explain why Jesus should
say to him: "Sin no more lest a worse
thing befall thee"

fishes, and divine prudence in assemb-
ling the fragments reveals the unques-
tionable, creative act of the power of
Jesus Christ as perhaps none other Of
his miracles Emphasize the part
which the boy played in cooperating
with Christ.
Lesson X. The Bread of Life. Jesus
is the Bread of Life as well as the CIV
er of everlasting life. He is the Bread
of Life which cometh down from heav-
en-, and the one going to whom we shall
never hunger nor thirst.
Lesson XII. Jesus Saves From Sin.
Jesus, the Light of the World, has pow
er to set men free from sin, and "whom
the Son shall make free is free in
deed" In this lesson we have
cry of sin apd the freedom O. oells
ers.
True faith is built upon facts, and
those who accept and believe on these
facts have everlasting life."

Madam Homer is making special

on account of her many warm per-

has made Madam Homer idOlized by

that might be said of Homer.
HOmer's program consists of 10
beautiful songs, and II is safe to say
she will sing number of encores.
many of which will be requests from
the audience. In fact Madam Homer
has expressed desire to sing such
encores as the audience might wish
for.
