For All Keokuk Women.

All Keokuk women are invited to
the mass meeting on Sunday after
noon at o'clock at the First Bap-
fist church under the auspices of the
Keokuk Woman's Progress Fedora
ton.
The Rev. Eleanor Gordon will make
the address of the afternoon in the
interest of lettering social conditions.
She will speak of some of the recent
findings of a commission appointed
by the Rockefeller foundation, on the
social evil.
The government has asked that the
same safeguards shall surround the
boys at home who are prospective
soldiers, that are placed about the
soldiers in active service. This has
in a large measure prompted the
movement in Iowa and elsewhere, for
social betterment. Among Iowa towns
Sioux City has perhaps made the
greatest progress. There will be an
organ prelude and music at the close
of the address.
