the government during the war, saying
that she will serve anywhere. In the
same registration a girl Of II asked if
she might not go in the capacity of
''errand girl' to France, and added
that she was prepared to pay her own

ers on which the government may draw,
but it has shown women their own in
dustrial status and has placed new
value upon their work. Women who
have never done anything more useful
than decorating a drawing room are
now performing hard, valuable work.
Others suddenly made to realize their
ignorance, are entering training schools.
Finally, the Importance of this regis
tration is demonstrated by the fact that
the enemy has attempted to interfere
with it. In every registration the local
committee has had to work against re-
ports circulated by mysterious strang-
ers that the registration of women
would mean the communicating of
