'hov many women in business wish to give
some of their leisure time to the Government
without pay as patriotic duty. Many have
come here and registered their names to be
called should they be needed. Through the
files, which dfferentate between those who
give their services free and those who must
have pay, we have been able to furnish
stenographers and social-service workers to
the Government and to individuals with great
advantage. We have cards here of thou
sands of others and it is our intention to
have the names and qualifications of all
Philadelphia women on record that the
Government may know its woman strength
well its man strength during the war"
The files show the cards of those who must
have pay for their services; those who are
willing to give time and effort without pay
and those who will give their time and work,
receiving only expense money in return.
Two thousand names have been used In
furnishing women for sSalaried positions for
temporary war work. ...r
A house-to house canvass is being made in
order to obtain registration cards for all
women of Philadelphia. This, it is hoped,
will be completed in another month Little
trouble has been experienced in getting the
women to register. few have declined
fearing some obligation might be entailed
but when it is explained that the signature
carries no obligation the registrars find no
trouble in securing the names to be added to
the archives.

WOMEN GIVE EFFICIENT
AID IN DEFENSE WORK
Philadelphia Committee of Ma.
tiOnal Council Has All but
Completed Organization

The Philadelphia womens committee of
the Council for National Defense is now an
almost completed and perfected organza-
tion. 1t Is an organization of great size and
breadth of scope in war activities; and one
which, organized by women, bears witness
TO an unsuspected and extraordinary accuracy
and perseverance in detailed work.
Eleven departments. covering virtually
every branch of women's war work, are
united under one head, with one general aim.
which is that of making every woman in
the country work for the winning of the
war either actively or passvely. These
eleven activities are food production, food
conservation, home economics, women In in
dustry. child welfare. education, health
recreation. Liberty Loan, foreign relief and
registration.
Nearly all of these departments, except the
registration. of which Mrs. Louis B. Taylor
Is director, have moved from the old head
quarters at 1907 Walnut street to the
Finance Building
with every woman in the country pledged
through this organization to give her serv-
ices 10 the nation vast hidden army Is or
ganized. This does not mean that women
must actually give up their business in life
ana go into active war work It means sim
ply that every woman pledges that she will
iollow Government orders in the matter of
food conservation and give as much of her
time as she can to some sort of service n

safety of her own children

why, even Mary the maid watched her in
silent admiration. Mary had often ex.
claimed over the wonderful sweaters Sister
made and she couldn't ever see how she
did them: but now words failed her, and
when words failed Mary, believe me, she
must re awed.
Sister knitted on and Mary, woefully
neglecting her dusting. stood there con-
templating the awful contortions she went
through every once in a while. Once she
dropped a stitch and sighed dismally,
though you know and know she was
really having the time of her life Finally
Mary did burst out sympathetically:
"Is It hard, miss?'
"Oh, NO, Mary" quoth Sister. in bored
and Indifferent tone. "Of course, It might
be for you, since you've never knitted
sweaters or anything like that. But I'll
teach you how to make socks some time IL
you'd like to learn" she added magnani.
mously.
And then--oh then--THEN came the
blow. Sister realized suddenly and all un-
expectedly that Mary wasn't awed at all:
in fact Mary must have been enjoying
It all im-mense.lee, for she answered po-
litely:
"oh, thank you. miss, but It's dozens Of
pairs of socks I've made. I always used
to knit them when was little girl"
And poor Sister, feeling muchly like a
little girl herself, though she's a few
months past seventeen and quite old, you
know, made as graceful retreat as possi-
BILE. though under the circumstances you
can't blame her for banging the door and
refusing to give Mary any more hats she
didn't want for while. One doesn't lose
ones sense of importance and dignity easily
when one is seventeen!
