LOCAL COUNCIL NATIONAL
DEFENCE ORGANIZED

Notwithstanding the rainy day,
there was a good crowd of women
present to hear Mrs. Helm Bruce and
DR.. Alice Pickett, of Louisville, who
came to Stanford in the interest Of
the Woman's Council of National
Defence on Saturday, March 23rd
The introduction was made by Mrs
J. B. Paxton, who told of the eager
desire of the women all over the
| United States to do something to
help win the war. Almost as soon as
war was declared the authorities at
| Washington were besieged by wom-
en- from the North, East, South and
West, all asking as with a single
voice, "What can we do to help?"
| This store of energy was used by the
| Council of National Defence, form
| ing a Woman's Committee to serve
the Government. Mrs. Helm Bruce,
who is chairman of the Kentucky Di-
vision, in a most pleasing manner
told something of the Council of Ma
tional Defence, created by an act of
| Congress, and appointed in August
1916. 1t is composed of the Secreta-
ries of War, Navy, Interior. and Ag-
riculture and Commerce. When the
women expressed such a desire to
serve the government, the most
prominent women of America were
summoned to come to Washington
and the Woman's Committee of the
Council of National Defence was ap-
pointed by the Council of National
Defence in April 1917. 1t is made
up principally of the Presidents of
all other organizations, including
Colonial Danes, Woman's Clubs, T.
d. C.,'s Missionary Societies, etc
Women who have always been prom
inent in club and philanthropic work
The object of this committee was not
so much to form new branches of
work, but to cor-ordinate the work
already started and report it to the
government. The idea is to reach all
women and enlist them for service
1t is not to supplant working bodies
already organized, but to link such
together and report to the govern
ment. There are ten departments OF
work, but all do not have to be rep
resented in local societies. There are
Registration, Food Production, Home
Economics, Child Labor, etc. A loca
society was organized here with Mrs
&c. f. Tate as chairman, Mrs. j. S
Rice as corresponding secretary anC
Mrs. II. j. McRoberts as treasurer
The next speaker was DR.. Alice NJ
Pickett, of Louisville, sister of Mrs
VIM. Severance and well-knowr
here. She was introduced by Mrs
Paxton and spoke on wholesome rec
reatons for homeless city girls. She
is much interested in this work anC
is endeavoring to enlist the sympathy
of people in their behalf. She advises
poor girls at this time to remain in
the country and shun the city as &
place for employment. The women OF
Stanford are greatly indebted to
both of these speakers for their in
terest and instruction.

"Hold Fast" Lloyd-George
Tells English in Message

LONDON, Aug. 6.-"Hold fast" was
the keynote Of message to the Brit
ish empire by Premier David Lloyd
George and promulgated in drastic
way through the kingdom at the hour
of 9 o'clock Monday night. The mes
sage was read to the audiences in all
theaters, concert halls and other
places where people were assembled,
including moving picture houses.
Sealed copies of the message had
been distributed to the managers of
all these places, with the request that
they open and read it at o'clock. The
message follows;
"The message which I send to the
people of the British empire on the
fourth anniversary of the entry into
the war is: Hold fast!'
I'VE are in this war for no selfish
ends. We are in it to recover freedom
for the nations which have been brut.
ally attacked and despoiled, and to
prove that no people, however power
full, can surrender itself to the lawless
ambitions of militarism without meet
ing retribution, swift, certain and dis
astrous, at the hands of the free ma
lions of the world. To stop short OF
victory for this cause would be to elm
promise the future of mankind.
81 say Hold fast because our pros.
poets of victory have never been SC
bright as they are today. Six months
ago the rulers of Germany deliberate

ly rejected the just and reasonable set
Element proposed by the allies. Throw
ing aside the last mask of moderation
they partitioned Russia, enslavcd Rou-
mania, and attempted to seize supreme
power by overthrowing the allies in
final and desperate attack. Thanks to
the invincible bravery of all the allied
armies, it is now evident to all that
this dream of universal conquest, for
the sake of which they wantonly pro-
longed the war, can never be fulfilled.
But the battle Is not yet won. The
great autocracy of Prussia will still
endeavor, by violence or guile, to
avoid defeat and so give miiitarism a
new lease of life. We cannot seek to
escape the horrors of war for our
selves by laying them up for our chill
dren. Having set our hands to the
task, we must see it through til! just
and lasting settlement is achieved.
'In no other way can we endure a
world set free from war.
Hold fast

MANUFACTURERS
| TO Make REPORT
OF LABOR NEEDS
War Industries Board Dis
proves Competitive Meth
DDS of Procuring Labor.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. Ga
large number of manufacturers in In
diana engaged in war work, have neg
lected to mail in to L. G.. Huesmann,
federal labor director, reports cover
ing their common labor requirements.
renewed appeal has been made that
they file reports promptly with Mr..
Huesmann, as otherwise the state
may be called upon for labor which
should be retained at home"
In reference to the prohibition
against the private recruiting of un-
skilled labor except under the direc-
ton of the U. S. Employment Service,
the following resolution of the War
Industries board is made public today
by the Employment service: BE it
resolved by the War Industries board,
that the practice of manufacturers
using competitive peace-time methods
in the procurement of labor, resulting
in the withdrawal of labor from war
industries, is strongly disapproved.
and hereafter this board through its
priority division, will in proper cases
Withhold priority assistance from en-
ployers who persist in pursuing such
methods"
1t is announced by the Employment
Service that in order that the service
may be as effective as possible, it is
highly important that each employer
engaged in war work, keep the local
office of the U. S. Employment Service
informed from day to day of his actual
needs for unskilled labor. Special
rules have been promulgated govern
ing private labor recruiting to which
all employers must conform if they
desire the protection Of the Service
and the Department of Labor.
A special regulation in reference to
employers in non-war work follows:
"Non-war industries should not offer
superior inducements or in any other
way undertake to compete for labor
with the government or with employ
ers engaged in war work. Observance
of the letter and spirit of this provis-
ion is necessary for the efficient pro-
secution of the war. Methods of re-
cruiting and of advertising which do
not offend against it are permitted

"a CAMP LOCATIONS
TAKEN YESTERDAY

Monday was a record breading day
for tent reservations at Chautauqua
headquarters. Twenty-four new camp

two hundred tents already the great
est number ever recorded this early
in the season, according to w. O. Wiss-
Ter, in charge at headquarters.
The Wayne County Sunday School

this year. Plans for making it more
attractive and comfortable than ever

Red Cross Notes

There is still supply of helmet
yarn at the Red Cross rooms which
can be obtained at any time; but the
sock yarn supply Is exhausted.
Are you wearing Red Cross arm
band, headress, or uniform which you
have not been authorized to wear?
With the passage of late law such
an act has been made not only one OF
bad taste but contrary to law.
The Wayne County Chapter Of the
American Red Cross has been in
structed to see that the law is follow
ed with the strictest conformity pos
sible.
In no case should uniforms unau-
| thorized by the Division Manager OK
the Red Cross bear the Red Cross in
| sigma; by insignia is meant the Red
Cross Or the letters A. r. G. This
announcement Is made imperative by
the growing tendancy on the part OF
members of branches and auxiliaries
| to wear uniforms Of original design.
A few exceptions have been made in
regard to the use of Red Cross SYM
bols for advertising purposes, which is
now prohibited by law. Some con-
Germs had such large amounts of ad-
vertising material on hand that it was
deemed desirable to make exceptions
in these cases. No other companies
may use such symbols.
Persons wishing to give benefits for
the Red Cross should make arrange
ments with local chapter before doing
So This does not mean that the Red
Cross does not desire cooperation in
any good means of raising funds.
Do not make your socks too short.
Word has been received from the Ma
tional headuarters and also from the
local inspectors that some socks are
coming in too short, and with the feet
of uneven length.
The local chapter, therefore has
been asked to accept nothing less than
| a 1O15 foot. Sizes 1917 to 1919 are &C
ceptable.
/ On account of the durability and
comfort of the hand made socks, it is
being urged that they be given prece-
dence. 1t is recommended to chap
tiers that have machines that they knit
10 inches of the leg on the machine
and then give the socks out to be fin
ished by hand. This method will in
sure an inch of hand knitting before
beginning the heel.
Cautions should also be given about
the toe. Socks should never be closed
at the toe with less than 20 stitches
on the needles.
In placing the labels on the socks
the cuff should be stretched before
sewing.
