Have you ever sat down ut grandmother

to twenty who hasn't thrilled over som
volume Of adventure and just wished sh.
had ltved then, and could have been tie
heroine Of those days. That was long ago.
and some Of us don't realize that we are
some day other girls are going to ask
e Mother or '.Auntie.' or ..Granny..
. What did you do In the great war?.
You can't say you were too young, b
cause some other little tot will pipe u,

years old, and she wears button Of g.
Victory Girls"
Yes. yes! Tell us about the victory
Girls! Tell Us about the Victory Girls
And then let us hope you can reply:
= We were too young to 20 overseas, NJ
we weren't boys and we couldn't fight-an .
oh how We longed for the right to a 81
vice flag, especially those Of us who hadn'
brothers. We saw the older girls lcavin.,,
town In the nurses units, or with the Il.
Cross and Y. ". G. H.. and we felt 80 hel.,-
less that We. too. couldn't do something Gi-
rectl yfor the boys In the camps and in
France and Italy and RUSSIA.
And then there came the big United War
Work campaign. At first we thought 1t
meant only the older ones again, but no. II
WIS a real chance to serve. and earn the
right to II service flag in our windows.
This little button tiat l keep in my
jewel box stands for so much. washed
dishes for mother to earn 1t, and darned
the stockings for the whole family, and
did II well, too. because I felt that I was
| really doing that service for the boys In
Europe. as much as II were a member Of
the Salvation Army or the Y. W. CA. over
there, and I couldn't give them anything
but my best.
Some Of the girls who were older helped
helped in the stores, and one Of my sisters
chums did tipping for her father. \ crowd
Of used to gather nuts every Saturday and
| pick them out Mt night, and sell them for
the Christmas baking. Every button means
| something different. but they every one
mean, actually. work. real service. in win.
ming the victory for right.
e But the things that meant most some.
| how, were the times we denied ourselves
/ soda. or a movie. or walked to school, and
/ that ), or 10, or 15 cents that went into
the Victory box made us feel that we were
handing over a ticket to some fighter, or
/ giving him our candy. ns much as II we had
| been behind knights OF Columbus counter.
:. That is the story Of the Victory Girls.
and whenever girl Of the great war shows
you little button with an eagle with ont
stretched wings you may know that she also
| pulled for victory and had service flag
hanging In her window beside the one with
/ the star.
" That nag with the eagle was helping

Ors and school hooks and sweetmeats to the
boy represented by the star. Or 1t carried
rest rooms and canteens and cheerful
women secretaries to the girls who could
20 out into the factories and hospitals OF
drive the motors or serve in the signal
CORPS.
viii you be able to show that little hut
ton, you girls from twelve to twenty, tt
, answer proudly that you pledged yourselves
to pull for victory and earned what yog
gave?
