MILLIONS ASKED
FOR WAR RELIEF
GREATEST NATIONAL DRIVE FOR
FUNDS EVER STAGED IN AMERi-
CA TO OPEN NOV. II.
REQUESTED BY PRESIDENT
United War Work Campaign to Secure
Funds for Seven Accredited Agen-
fles Working for Comfort and Nor
ale Of Soldiers and Sailors.

On the morning of Monday, Nov.
18th, the United War Work Campaign,
the greatest Nationwide drive for
War Relief Funds ever staged in this
country, will open in every city, town.
village, hamlet and township in Amer
lea. Not hundreds, thousands, tens
of thousands or hundreds of thou
sands of dollars will be solicited from
the people, but hundreds of millions
will be asked.
America has become known to the
world as the "Wonder County"
through its stupendous accomplish
ments during the past eighteen
months. The American people have
come to realize they can complete any
task placed before them and they
have come to look with favor upon
such jobs as this one which faces
them now.
The United War Work Campaign
was instituted at the request of Presi-
dent Wilson. The funds to be raised
comprise the budgets of the seven
great organizations which are working
for the comforts Of the boys, In this
country and overseas, fighting for the
great cause Of Worlds Democracy"
These seven organizations the Y. M.
C. A., Y. w. c. A., X. Of c., Salvation
Army, Jewish Welfare Board. Ameri-
can Library Association and the War
Camp Community Service, have been
officially accredited by the National
War Board and are receiving its sup
ports in the drive.
In Michigan, the Michigan Patriotic
Fund was created by the governor to
handle the drive in this state. Mich
igan will be asked to give approx
mately $10,000,00 for the support of
her boys who have answered the call
to the colors. Every county has been
organized under the supervision Of the
County War Board and during the
week of November 18th, thousands of
workers will offer every man. woman
and child in the state the opportunity
and privilege of giving for the boys
fighting our battle in the trenches.
In the event OF peace being declared
tomorrow the work of these organiza-
tions would become two-fold. 1t took
Uncle Sam eighteen months to put
his army in Europe and 1t will take
as long to bring it back. The work
among the soldiers will become great
er while they are slowly working back
in to civil life so that this great task
of war relief will not be stopped with
the winning of the war.

FRY DOUGHNUTS
IN SHELL ZONE
y Salvation Army Women Risk Lives to
Furnish Boys in Trenches With
Hot Fried Cakes.

With the American Army In France
Sept 25.-(By Mail.)-Risking their
lives we'll within the shell zone be-
hind the American lines in France.
Mrs. Adjutant Hammond, Lieutenant
Lulu Lawyer and Envoy Electra Pau
line Swartz, Salvation Army workers,
assisted by detail of soldiers, daily
fry doughnuts from early morning un-
til late at night. On more than one
occasion they have been driven from
their dugout while the place rocked
under the hammering OF the enemy's
big guns, but despite shrieking shells
overhead, these intrepid workers re-
fuse to quit their labors in behalf Of
the American soldiers. This news Is
just received by the United War
Work Campaign Committee.
With shells flying overhead almost
daily, Ensign Gertrude Symmonds
and Ensign Viola Williams are con-
stantly engaged in rolling. cutting and
frying doughnuts. On one occasion
they made $500 doughnuts for the
men of an American regiment which
was moving from its temporary billet
in the next village up to the reserve
line for the night. When the dough-
nuts were finished they were distribu-
ted, two to each soldier, as the men
marched in single files on either side
of the ambulance upon which they
were stationed.
These same Salvation Army girls
had on the previous day, made coffee
and dispensed it with biscuits and
comfture, to seven hundred weary
doughboys who, on their march to the
front, had stopped for moment to
rest on the road near the hut.

MACCABEES FAVOR SUFFRAGE
FOR WOMEN.

"Women are now being called to the
aid Of the Government in the prosecu-
ton Of the war. Without their aid
and patriotism this war could not be
conducted. Women Of our Association
have by their business ability and ac-
knowledged success In the business
world proved their ability to think
and act I'm matters of public impor-
lance. AS an insurance association
our business interests are affected.
Legislation and amendments to state
constitutions are being annually pro-
posed upon which for our self-protec-
ton we ought to have direct voice"

GROWTH OF SUFFRAGE WITHIN
THE YEAR.

In 1917 the women OF New York
State won full suffrage.
After Canada went into the war
British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatche-
wan, Manitoba and Ontario women

racy.
