Women and Var Work

Yesterday was n slack day at the
Red Cross workroom and was not in
the way of the Thanksgiving tribute
which II should have been TO the Tulsa
men in the army. 1t can scarcely be
said that We have shown proper graf
itude for our comforts AMI blessings.
The contrast OF suffering and want In
Europe at this time, while we still are
enjoying the fruits of plenty. Is a
pitiful enc. and should inspire the
women of the city to renewed effort
on Friday.
Mrs. Robert NJ. Moody will be in
charge of the workroom on Friday.
Mrs Edwin l.. Covel. who some time
ago was placed in charge of the day
classes in surgical dressings at the
library, is utterly discouraged at the
lack OF interest. She reports that
many of the women who are appointed
20 assist in the work fall TO put in
appearance at the time which they
have promised. Others conjure up
flimsy excuses which are offered for
failure 20 fulfil their duty. The ex-
cuse of many that they have not been
trained for the work cannot be ac-
cepted as no previous training or
experience Is necessary. Any~woman
who will, can learn. Mrs. Covel has
appointed TO assis: her the follow
ing women. Mrs. Thomas d.
Lyons and Mrs. Joseph +. Cappeau,
jr. Monday; Mrs J. Raymond Bur
dick and Mrs, Henry n. Greis, Tues
day; Mrs. Herbert ID. Mason and Mrs.
Lee Clinton, Wednesday, This Is ID.

asked to lend its aid in making the
day a big one. Mrs. A. h Murphey

.'IIICKER'' TELLS
WHAT SHE USED TO ENDURE

In the Woman's Home ~Companion
a woman who has reduced kicking to.
a fine art tells what she used to en-
dure before she got the habit of COM
planning to the proper authority when
things did not suit her.
II would endure inattention from
sales men or women and go away from
the shop feeling angry and unsatisfied,
she says. Il permitted receiving tell
ers in savings banks to bark sharply
at me through their barred windows.
Rudeness-nay, even insolence-from
street car conductors and other of that
ilk l passed by in silence; meekly [
walked round huge distractions on
the sidewalk, placed there by firms
who were breaking the laws of my
city by so doing; unwillingly l paid
eXorbitant taxi fares rather than argue
with the chauffeur-yet, | paid: l let
walters browbeat me into eating .in-
ferior food sooner than send it back
mitted to the demands of the janiter
of my apartment that l should take
my milk and ice from dealers who
paid tribute to him in petty graft
rather than from more dependable
millSmen and ice sellers; l permitted
gas men to be volubly impertinent.
Yea, all these things did L do, and
many others, because l did not have
the nerve to stand up for my rights
and because, like many another lone
woman, | did not want to get into an
argument with any large, hulking,
male man."
