Every man who was in the front

the women Of the Red Cross service,
Of the cauteeu service Of the hostess
house and the Salvation Army las
sic. who did more 10 alleviate Cnelr
suffering than can ever be known by

OF them IN the sacrifice they were
making and that she should be Of as
great importance now as during the

War2 She won this war as she has
won every war our country has ever
Won- II was she who sent her dear
ones and gave her time 10 war work
while she patiently awaited their re-
turn. Vow we shall stay behind her
and give her the vote sha so justly
deserves For those men who think
the place for a woman is at home sur
rounded by hot water and dirty
dishes. 7 would say that IL she isl
good enough to be used t. The camp,
