WOMEN OF AMERICA
MUST HELP WIN WAR

"Why should we American
women be shielded and kept
from doing the work that
French and English women
have done?" This is the ques-
ton being asked by Miss Grace
Parker, who was sent to Europe
to in yestigate woman's war
work on the other side Of the
Al -.ntic. Miss Parker points
out that one million English
women are making ammunition,
that several hundreds of thou
sands are working on the farm,
that they are performing every
kind of labor needed to build .
battle ship; that ten thousand
are working in France behind
the firing line; that twelve
thousand are acting as motor
drivers; that within ten days Of
the declaration of war sixty
thousand nurses were enlisted.
At her meeting in Dallas re-
Gently Miss Parker's question
was applauded vehemently.
This was to lie expected Of
Southern womanhood.
There is a work into which
the woman of the Southwest
can throw all those energies
which they would gladly ex-
tend in more arduous and dan
gerous tasks. They can secure
for the Government a huge
over-subscriction to the Liberty
Loan. This will send food and
ammunition to our soldiers and
to our Allies. Will build ships,
help to crush Germany and so
achieve the object Of every true
American woman. Do the duty
that arises clearly defined be-
fore you, and the same credit
will be due as to the over-alled,
dirt-stained sister on the 9TH
er side. In the army of Democ-
racy some must 60 "over the
top-some must engage in the
prosaic work of mule driving
some making ammunition-oth-
ers again must provide the
money. All are necessary. Do
your part and you will share
equally in that glorious tri-
.umph which must one day be
ours. Women of the South
west, we look to our men to
subscribe the Liberty Loan quo
ia. We look to you to double it.

Mr.. w. II. Hodges Of Elm Grove,

list Of local subscribers to the third

:" am enclosing list of Subscrip-
tions to the third Liberty Loan which
have been reported to date l regard
this as very fine showing for Bossier
Parish, and am sure it will make the
citizens Of the parish feel proud.
There are some other large sub
scriptfOns to he reported, which, when
in, will put the total to little over
$4,000. We have good chance to
win the flag for the largest percentage
and hope our people will let their
subscriptions come forward promptly.
We are now over three times more
than our quota and have good chance
to make it f0ar times before the close
of the campaign.
II wish especially to emphasize the
excellent work being done by the good
women of the parish
