conditions and in wrongs to be
righted, and welcome the help of
any party that will help you do
the better thing.
recommends Governments Study
Organize yourselves into groups to
study civil government and the
machinery on which your govern
ment is based and study parlia-
mentary law. Begin with the
girls in the schools so that it will
be easy for them to preside and
take part in meetings. Women
have always done their work
alone and men have done their
work together. Men have learn
ed cooperation and have left the
women to do the things that can
be done one by one One great
lesson that women have to learn
is to work together: to put prime
iples above personalities and

like for a common cause. You
women did it in the red cross and
in that same spirit you must work
together in the common problems
in your community.
Study the problems of your COM
munity. Begin to study the pro-
blems of school, use of the school
buildings, community health and
sanitation and devote a month or
a season to the study of some of
these problems. In a short time
you will be able to ask the men
questions that will make their
heads swim.
You are a part of the community;
your influence counts and sooner
or later your vote will be given
you and that will count. If you
were a king or a queen it would
be your duty to know the pro-
blems of your people and help
them and make your community
larger and better. You ire all
kings and queens in America, and
every American citizen, man or
women, has a duty to perform
and that duty is to know the
problems of the community"
