Mrs. A. S. Baldwin, chairman Of
the Woman's Liberty Loan committee
of the Twelfth Federal Reserve Dis
trict, which includes California, Ore

"To all women working with the

tention! Forward march! Double
quick!
eve in this district have been called
and two million dollars of Liberty
bonds between September % and Oc-
tober 10.
"One-half of the time has gone.
Onethird Of the bonds are sold.
Therefore the reason for enforced
long marches by October 10 we
shall take our place in line with those
who have not been found wanting.
Listen not to any talk of peace.
Talk rather of Carey's valiant band
who with tripods, sticks and shovels,
blocked the way OF the Hun.
Talk OF the Marines who needed
not the command to go forward, but
who could not be held back, and so
turned the tide Of battle at Chateau
Thierry.
"The money the government now asks
all to lend is for supplies necessary for
Just such boys as those who fought at
Chateau Thierry-for your boys, and
for your friends and for your neighbors'
boys.
1--WE are fighting and bleeding for
freedom; for democracy; for the men
who must go into the trenches; for the
men who have fallen for the women
and children of Europe; for .ouF honor
and the canctity of our own homes.
When we have accomplished this, peace
will be ours.
I'm this great twelfth federal reserve
district, from Canada on the north to
Mexico on the south, from the Pacific
Ocean to the Rocky Mountains-this
land of plenty this garden of the Gods,
this land of Our homes-can we, the
women of this land hesitate for one
No! Therefore, I, as your
leader in the work in this district, call
on each and every one Of you to exert
to your utmost strength, your every eff
fort, in order that the nations call may
be answered in the affirmative and that
every dollar needed shall be forthcoming
before the close of the fourth Liberty
loan drive, October 49,"

their prowess and heroism are maxi
ing the race admired abroad and ul-
timately respected at home.
But what are they doing who are
permitted to remain and share in
this unparalleled economic prosperity,
to profit by this wonderful initiative
mere youths earning $4,000 per, week?
What are we doing with our war pro-
fits?" Are we saving, at least, a
part? But mere saving is not suffi-
cient-in adversely the savings are
soon spent; but savings properly in
vested, produce an income that ulti-
mately lead to competence.
The competence of the race men of
our City represent wise investment
rather than mere savings. Business
stocks and real estate are some of the
most profitable forms Of investment.
Business calls for astute acumen,
executive ability and experienced at
tributes-the average individual does
not possess. Real estate necessitates
an amount of capital within the COM
mand of the few; while investment in
stocks of proven worth are increasing

neither large capital nor large bust
ness experience.

the service is delegated to others. If
the service fails, she must feel the
