everywhere where there was need for
them.
All through the war they worked,
and after the close of hostilities it
was found that their work was not
done, so many of them continued to
care for the maimed and sick soldiers,
and for the widows and orphans of
those who slept in “lqw green tents”
all over our land.
There were men who were unable to
care for their loved ones, and three
dependent ones too were looked after
by the loyal women.
When Paul Van Der Voort was
Commander-in-Chief of the Grand
Army of the Republic he called for
the societies then in existence to come
together, and in 1883 their represen
tatives assembled in Denver, and were
■rganized into the Woman’s Relief
Ourpe, and accepted as the auxiliary i
of the Grand Army of the Republic,
ind left free to work as suited them.
The Order has grown to magnifi
cent proportion«, and today the.re are
upon the rolls nearly 200,000. patriotic
women.
The members come from every walk
in life, and the best women of the
country are proud to wear the little
bronze badge, which represents Fra
ternity, Charity and Loyalty.
The aims and objects of the Worn-
in’s Relief Corps are:
To specially aid and assiet the
Grand Army of the Republic, and to
oerpetuate the memory of their heroic
dead.
To assist such Union veterans as
need <%r help and protection, and to
extend needful aid to their widows and
orphans. To find them homes and
employment, and assure them of sym
pathy and friends. To cherish and
emulate the deeds of our army nurses,
and of ail loyal women who rendered
loving service to our country in her
hour of peril;
To maintain true allegiance to the
United States bf America; to incul
cate lessons of patriotism and love of
country among our children and in the
communities in which we live; and
encourage the spread of universal
■iberty and equal rights to all.
This organization was the first to
'ntroduc* bhe salute to the flag in
he public school« and to make the ob
servance of Flag Day general, by pre
paring and carrying out suitable pro
grams.
The flag salute now universally used
in the schools is also,the Boy Scouts
oath: “I pledge allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America and
to the Republic for which it stands;
one nation indivisible, with liberty
snd justice for all.”
The Woman's Relief Corps is an in
corporated body and owns much val
uable real ectate.
Anderson Prison
Park, formerly owned by the W. R. C.,
is now owned by the United States
government.
The name Relief Corps waa flrat
used by a society at Portland, Me.,
>rganized by the Post in 1869. under
the name of Bosworth Relief Corps
No. 1, a society still in existence. The
next place we find it used is at
Fitchburg, Mass., February, 1879,
when the Woman’s State Relief Corp«,
auxiliary to the Grand Army of the
Republic, was formed.

Woman’s Relief Corps

the organization has made during the
