whether you do your work well ana the

Our four-minute speakers could dc
nothing. our house-to-house canvassers
were left to think of some other way 10
solicit subscriptions. our theatre terri
tory was lost.
THE schools. which were given the
women's committee in this drive FOR
the first time were closed Not only
just these outward influences were
against US. hundreds of our workers
themselves were stricken with influenza
or detained at their homes because OF
the Illness and death of relatives
Wonderful SeIf-sacrifco
II have never heard of such marvellous
sacrifice and generous giving Of selves
as during this drive The women didn't
need to be urged They simply plowed
through everything with a dogged de-
termination to win.
Our booths were the only phase of
our original plan left us. And undoubt-
edly their success was wonderful"
Mrs Thomson explained there were
other peculiarities in this loan. There
were, she said. more large subscrip-
tions and far more small ones than ever
before And the interesting feature WAS
the doubling of subscriptions time after
time.
Mrs. Thomson paid high tribute to her
associate chairman, Mrs. Mason. for ner
work during the campaign.
We are utter rags" explained the
chairman, thus expressing the physical
WEAKNESS of the workers. II suppose
there will be hundreds of women VINO
will need the rest cure after such siren
uous labor. But I shall always thrill
when / remember Philadelphia women
who talked themselves hoarse from
booths, street corners and doorsteps
who worked through rain or shine, in
districts where crepe hung from hum
dreds of doors. forgetting physical weari-
ness in their noble efforts to help Phila-
delphia over the top"

Il cannot say enough in behalf OF the
thousands Of women who have worked
so faithfully these three weeks de-
clarcd Mrs Thomson, chairman of the
women's committee. In the face of the
greatest obstacles they have ever had to
meet, they redoubled their energy and
went far past the goal obtained in the
last loan.
When outside forces were most ds-
cou-aging, they gathered inspiration
from within themselves and went hraNcly
on. If there are soldiers i'll France

Everyone knows" continued Mrs.
Thomson. that for many months our
women leaders worked on plans for the
fourth loan. Details we're outlined and
there was confidence everywhere. We
had had previous experience. We knew
what Uncle Sam wanted and there were
more than 10000 women in this city
signed up to help him get what he
wanted. 1t was "A glorious beginning,
Then, suddenly, this influenza epi-
demic came. With n .ingle exception
it wiped out our plans Of attack. You
see the men had their territory and the
women theirs And | think we have
faithfully stuck TO ours. But We had
to devise an absolutely new program.
