BY DOLLY DALRYMPLE

What 1 want to emphasize particu-
larly is this: registration does not nee
essarily mean that a woman must
leave her home, for home duty in war
times as well as in times of peace
comes first"
With this practical. convincing state
ment. Mrs. Julian D. Parke of Selma
president Of the Alabama Equal Suf-
frage association. summed up the duty
of women yesterday when l asked her
just after the meeting of the executive
council at the Hotel Hillman some
thing about the registration of women
which the suffra gists have undertaken.
Mrs Parke, who is one of the most
rational, conservative and intelligent
of the great body of women belonging
to the suffrage cause, spoke with her
usual good judgment in regard to the
movement which has been designated
to the suffrage association and known
as 1.-The registration of women" and
she displayed no emotional, sensation
al side to the question.
"The idea is simply this" Mrs. Parke
continued, when our country needs its
women, whatever happens to be the
office we are needed for, we are anx-
ious and willing to DO our pest. In
registering we merely show our pa
triotism and any woman who has any
patriotic spirit whatsoever is asked to
go to the polls and register, thus
signify her willingness to serve in her
best capacity. She may indicate on
her registration card what duty she
feels best able to perform and If she
is in a position to leave home for the
performance of that duty and how
long a notice she must have. In 9TH
err words registration is simply max
ing an opportunity for women; they
are not drafted like men but merely
asked to serve.
"The work has been departmental
lied l mean by that, the work that
women can do during war tines" Mrs.
Park continued "and that of registra-
tion has been assigned to the National
Equal Suffrage association: it does not,
however, mean that a woman must
be a suffra gist in order to register.
The field is bigger and broader than
any mere organization; it is merely
that each active organization of wom-
en- in the country has been asked to
promote some special work for wom-
en- during the war and registration has
been undertaken by the suffragists.
cdr Shaw is sending out word
in regard to the Suffrage association
and its work of registration of wom-
