Mrs. Percy Y. Pennybacker. past
president of the~GeneraI Federation
of Women's clubs, will be the guest
Of the Community Service league
girls Of Rock Island. Tuesday even
ing, Feb 4 at 8 o'clock in their
new club rooms, Third avenue and
Nineteenth street Members of the
clubs from Moline have also been
invited to hear Mrs Pennybacker,
who is brought to the tri-cities by
the war community service.
The community service league
girls of Moline with their mothers
and friends. will come to Rock Is
land in a special car, which will be
provided especially for them.
Mrs. Pennybacker will speak on
the subject, What Our Country
Asks OF It's Women" This subject
will be of special interest at this
period of transition from war to
peace basis of living, and there are
few women who are better equipped
TO speak on this topic than is Mrs.
Pennybacker, who was born in NiT-
ginia, now lives in Texas, was edu-
Gated in this country and Europe
and is known throughout the nation
as publicist and speaker.
The war camp community ser
vice has the following letter writ
ten by General John W. Ruckinan,
commanding general of the south
ern department of the United
States army, regarding Mrs. Penny
hackers address, what Our Coun-
try Today Asks OF It's Women.
My wife and l were present at
Mrs. Peunybacker's lecture in San
Antonio about three weeks ago. We
had good opportunities to observe
the lecture and to note the effect
upon the audience. 1t dealt with a
question which Is very close to our
hearts and we were enraptured at
her talk and commented freely up
on the results and the attitude Of
her audience toward her during
her lecture l have heard a good
many lectures in recent times but
am unable to recall any in which
I have been so much interested and
which seemed TO accomplish its pur-
pose so well as hers. l have no
suggestions as to improvements and
no criticism to make and my wife,
who is a close observer of such
matters, agrees with me.
at may be that Mrs Pennbacker
Is equally skiIIful and talented, in
other lines, but I know of no ques-
ton so important just now to the
American, people and am unable to
believe that anyone could handle
the particular subject on which she
spoke with an equal amount of
forcibleaess of expression"
