Mrs. Harold Milligan wants Am erican women to stop playing so much bridge and get to work on woman's role in Uncle Sam's de- fense.
 A New York wife and mother, Mrs. Milligan recently was ap- pointed head of the General Fed- eration of Womens Clubs new de- partment of national defense, which will mobilize women throughout the country.
 Across her busy office desk the ether day, she said, we have a great potential power for the civilian defense of this country in the womanhood of America. Wom- en have tremendous creative abii- ity. but too many are spending too much time on bridge. We want to harness their creative ability and put it to work for the country's de- fense preparedness"

She is now president of the National Council of Women, composed of l9 womens groups throughout tn Q country. For the past three years she was chairman of the Radio Di- vision of the General Federation of Women's Clubs and mistress of ceremonies on some of it's programs "a job which made her name known to millions of women throughout the country.

IL II part OF a story that began

picture Of three score Americans
playing bingo, baseball and horse
shoes in a suburb Of Tacoma
In 1881 q group Of ambitious
colonists set sail from Bremen for
the sugar plantations Of the Hawai-
ian islands. This was before the
islands were formally annexed by
the United States in 1898. Among
the members Of 20 families Of pio-
neers on the "a weeks sailing voy-
age around Cape Horn tcargo:

one Of the early settlers here
from Hawaii. His destination was
q sugar plantation and its two
mills on the island of Hawaii.
Worked Hard In Islands
Mueller worked hard in the Is
lands. learning the carpenter trade
and spending rare moments on
beaches that were later TO become
famous over the world. He was
there in 1884 TO welcome 500 new
colonists from the provinces OF
Hanover and Nova, who had come
in q compsny-chartered steamer.
Their voyage WAS Of only 90 days
duration.
But Fred Mueller hadn't seen

standing there in use today.
