Tomorrow to Listen to Address by Director Glieen Form Two Teams of Women Workers. The latest development in eonnee tion with the expansion and reoran liizalion eiinipniirn of the Chamber of Commerce and one which primuses to develop into a potent and power ful factor in insuring the success of the new movement, is the an nouncement that the mothers, daugh ters and sisters will line up with the fathers, sons ami brothers of .Med i'ord in the drive for -MO members and u working or sustaininir fund of $10, 000. "One of the mo-t intensely inspir in2 paces that will be written in the history of the yreal world war,",said one of the eampiiiuu officials, "will be that which tells of the noble sac rifices of that immortal hand of wom en of Kussia coiupi'isinir the l.enioii of Death, formed to defend I heir na tive land against the rulheless en niHchmenl of the hated I Inn, when they saw through horror-stricken eves the wealicninL'. wnverimr line of their army of men. And the women of the entire world, through this heoric ex ample set hv their sisters of liussia, were awakened, as never before, to n realization jif their importance in the future of a war-torn, hleediir.'. restless world." "Women to Meet The women of Mcdfnril have been called to assemble at a. public ineet i:r to ho held at, the library at U:!H o'clock tomorrow afleraoon for the purpose of hcurinir the aims nlVlli.'

' The treneral plan, as nnnounccd to day at eampait:n heaibiuarters, is fo; the formation "f at least two teams of women workers to aid in the mem Vership drive. "These teams will be captained hv women, each huviair seven women working under her dur ing 'the 'four-ihiv drive. The women teams will dot be restricted to solucit intr memberships of the women of the cilv, but iiiuv also solicit incui herships of the men. Tliev will draw for assignment of districts with the men teams, and will canvass from cards filled out from the prospect list that has been compiled at beiul nuarters duriiur the last three weeks. The cards will be so arranircd as to expedite convenience and save fini in makinir the canvass, and the more the workers there are in the field the fewer cards each team member will be reuuircil to handle.

Naturally 11 friedlv rivalry is certain to spriuir up be tween the captains of the different tennis, as the campaign progresses and the membership begins to ltihv. Some of the women of the cilv who are interested in the campaign are ot the opinion that more than two wom en teams can be formed, and in the event there arc as nmnv as tour, as is contemplated ill the Ashland cam paign, a woman major will be named to direct the women teams.

In an effort to find out, one thousand men were asked recently what was their favorite "social" agem'.y tho movies, the labor union, the church, library, lodgo or what? To get at tho answer easily sixteen of thfso institutions were selected and listed, and tho replies woro set down in the form of a vote. And what was tho answer? It was found that tho labor-union tho machine which raises wages and makes haughty employers atep lively was a moro or less univer sal favorite. In many rases, how over, tho movies ran the unions n closo second, especially since the household purse or check book permitted tho whole family to go to (he show. That the day of tho old-timo "Joiner" had far from passed was nlrto abundantly proved, for tho lodge lure loomed large In the bal lots. Hundreds assorted man's In nlinnublo right to his night out at his soc.ret society mooting. There cropped up, too, a surpritdnRly largo st'idious element. Many ad mitted that their favorite form of amusement was provided by tho nearest public library. There was evi'ii a scattering f if aesthetes who liked pictures and sculpture, and were attracted enough by art gal lerb'H to make frequent visits. When the hundreds of answers to the sixlfcn suggestions h:id nil been received and classified, it was found In , the survey that tho In terchurch World Movrmcrt mudo that one of tho Institutions which fared badly wifh the worklrifcinan voter was the ohlo'it American In stitution oT all the church.

Tills has been shown In all phases of tho survey that the Interchurch World Movement is making to bring about Protestant church eo-operatlon. Tho Tahor union, the lodge even the movies provided a good enough medium for the working man's hopes ami aspirations, It did not take much questioning, moreover, to show that tho agitator of social unrest, who has hia strongest hold in tho city, also was becoming a powerful attrac tion in social gatherings of all corts. From the survey, the Inter church World Movement has draws the conclusion, right or wrong, that any organization which wishes to interest tho worker must be as prnctical as a labor union, as interesting as a movto and as stimulating as a debating forum. t lie library tomorrow iiffcrnooii.
