Heroic Women Of France.

My words are not powerful
enough to do even scant justice
to the most heroic figure in the
modern world, and of ages past
the woman of France.
Of the healthy men who are
not engaged in the military SER
vice, practically all are engaged
either in transportation or in the
manufacture of munitions, leav-
ing the agriculture absolutely to
the women. Not only this, but
they haved stepped into the place
of work animals; you can go into
any section of France to-day and
see women of magnificent noble
womanhood hitched to the plow
and cultivating the soil. All of
the agriculture rests on their
shoulders. The home, always an
extremely efficient home. main
tains a few old men, the wound
ed and the tubercular. Uncom-
planning, with high devotion,
with an attitude that amounts al
most to religious exaltatien, the
woman Of France bears the bur-
den.
Now, conditions being as they
are, does it lie within the heart
of the American people to pre-
serve and hold to every conven-
ience of life at the expense of
adding an additional burden to
the womanhood of France? This
is the exact question that is in
volved in our substitution of 9TH
er cerials in place of wheat.
The women of France must be
enabled to uphold the morale of
the French soldier until next
spring. The morale of the house
decides the morale of the soldier
in the fighting line. We can do
this by giving them the greatest
possible freedom in thoir food
: supply, and of this wheat is the
chief factor.
This is noble Power on the
Farm, but do we want this con-
dition in Kentucky? 1t will be
, forced on us unless we do oui
full share in sending all we can
, to our allies. DIR. Alonzo Taylor
