call to our women came-fifteen days after

OF the country the answer came "America

The women were there!
Do you know that this enormous power.
this vital, vigorous force, this woman power
OF our nation has been recruited? Is Or

1t did not happen overnight
Fifteen days after war was declared, the
Council OF National Defense appointed nine
Women-natlOnal leaders to marshal and
direct this enormous woman power of the
nation. In less than two weeks, these
women, summoned to Washington from
states as far apart as California and Rhode
Island, had got together and formulated
tentative plan for organization.
Immediately this plan was sent out to lead
ing women in each of the forty EIGHT states.
The organizations were there. Five thou

this broadening out of women's interests,
than wornen's own attitude toward the one

One magazine has grown
luith them
One magazine had the vision years ago to
drop all talking down" to women-to step
oyt from the ranks and to begin publishing
articles on the vital problems of the modern
woman's life-to lead the way to the in
tcrests towards which women were them
selves turning.
From the moment of its adoption of this
policy Pictorial Review began to grow. So
stable, SO sound has been this policy, that
year by year the number of it's readers has
increased Today Pictorial Review has the
largest zoe circulation in the world
Steadily it has been leading the women of
America in this broadening of their inter-
ests. 1t was the first women's magazine to
send woman abroad to get 6rst-hand the
story of the tremendous changes this war
is making in women's status.
You have not read the story, But your wife
has thrilled to it-your daughter has. 1t is

TUBERCULOSIS FIGHTERS
JOIN WITH RED CROSS

Fifteen hundred anti-tuberculosis
associations In every state in the I'm
ion have set aside their ordinary work
and are giving their time and atten-
ton during the next month to the Red
Cross Christmas Roll Call, according
to an announcement from the head
quarters Of the National tuberculosis
Association.
Instead of the usual sale of Red
Cross Seals which has been conducted
for the last ten years jointly by the
National tuberculosis Association and
the American Red Cross, this coming
year the tuberculosis movement will
be supported by direct appropriation
of $1,000, 900 from the Red Cross, and
In turn all of the machinery of the tu-
berculosis campaign will be turned
into helping swell the membership of
the American Red Cross In an effort
to enroll every man and woman in the
country
In every state there Is well organ
lied state organization, and under 1t
there are strong local branches. These
trained workers will cooperate with
the Red Cross chapters In their COM
munity and will endeavor to organize
their districts so that no one can es-
cape solicitation. Universal member
ship in the Red Cross will be the aim.

WILL GIVE COMFORT KITS.

Because of limited room on the
transports the Army has now barred
comfort kits from the personal bag
gage of soldiers. However, since
these have furnished such real
comfort and pleasure to our boys,
the American Red Cross is arranging
for as large freight shipments of these
as possible to be distributed through
It's Foreign Commissions. For these
have made universal appeal. One big
burly soldier boy was as pleased as
punch over some simple puzzle that
had been slipped into the bag he drew.
Still another instance is told of a
soldier boy who came from the trench
covered with CRIME and dirt and with
not even as much as toothbrush in
his possession. When he was handed
comfort kit with comb, brush and
even a toothbrush his joy knew no
bounds, and he Immediately made a
mental allotment from his next pay
day to go to the American Red Cross,
which had proved his friend in his
hour of need.

Let us lift, for q little while at
least, the melancholy shadow of

Christmas for the young people
who have arrived since the drea =
full war began-this, if there were
not hundred other good reasons
for a celebrant Christmas. The war
started late in July, 1914, and only
think how many arriv"yls on earth
there have been since that time.
There are probably now a round

Marvellous Wire Invention
Recently Revealed

Last Friday Postmaster General
Burleson made public a letter from
Theodore N Vail, president of the
American Telegraph and Telephone
Co., announcing the invention and de-
velopment by the technical staff of the
Bell System of "a practical system of
multiplex telephony and telegraphy
by the use of which it is now possible
to increase many fold the message
carrying capacity of long telephone
and telegraph wires"
with this new SYSTEM" said Mr..
Wallis letter, "four telephone CONVEX
satlons over one pair of wires are
simultaneously carried on, in addition
to the telephone conversation provided
by the ordinary methods. Thus over
single pair of wires a total of five
telephone conversations are simultane-
ously operated, each giving service as
good as that provided by the circuit
working in the ordinary way,
"In telegraphy as we'll as in tele-
phony, sensational results have been
attained by the new system. By COM
! bining two telegraph wires into a
metallic circuit of the type used for
telephone working and by applying
our new apparatus and methods to
this metallic circuit, we have enor-
mously increased the capacity of the
wires for telegraph messages without
IN any way impairing the quality of
telegraph working.
"The nature of the development is
such that if desired wires may be
used partly for telephone and partly
telegraph. A pair of wires is avail
able either for five simultaneous tele-
phone conversations or for forty sim
ultaneous telegraph messages. or part
ly for one and partly for the other"
