This is just splendid, but we must
do better still. Let US be at least 3ot

announced that orders had been re

it seemed probable that we shoule

the allied peoples. The loan of ma
chimes is still requested. The petition
which is ar appeal from the women
of France on behalf of the unfortu-
nate women of France and Belgium
and which was printed in full in last
Saturdays Cledaonian, was presented
and signed by every woman present
There will be copy of this petition
at the Athenaeum and one at the Re
publican office where women can sigr
and are earnestly invited to do so
AS one gets a slight inkling of what
this petition means, it seems that we
would set countless stitches through
tears of gratitude that our young
women were saved by the Grace OF
God and the British and French arm
les from a like fate!
