TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT every woman APRIL 18. 1918. THE BALANCE OF POWER CAN HELP NEXT LIBERTY LOAN Woman’s Committee for Twelfth Federal Reserve District to Form an Organization l By MRS. A. S. BALDWIN (Chairman Woman’s Liberty Loan Committee, Twelfth Federal Reserve District) Now that we are actively in the war Snd our men are in the front line trenches; are being killed; are being gassed; are being maimed for life, it would seem that every woman in the land should be in the front ranks of the civilian workers to help the men win the war. Each of us has her part to play, however small It may be, and whether it be great or small it is of importance that each shall perform her part to the utmost of her ability. Some can buy Liberty Bonds, some pan Influence others to buy. Perhaps pome can only help by conserving the ure of food and clothing and by econ omizing In household expenditures, thus liberating and augmenting the essentials which must be sent "over there" for the use of our army and tor the destitute civilian population of our allies. In whatever way each woman of this Twelfth Federal Reserve District san help, let her do her utmost that we who are farthest from the front may sustain our part of the struggle, and keep for ourselves and our chil dren the blessings and privilege« we have Inherited, and thus make it pos sible to win like blessings for the mil lions who are now in actual bondage. We should not only save to help, but the great lesson to be learned also is to do now without non-essentials and to make sacrifices so that the labor which produces what we consider to be even essentials may be used to produce those things which are actu ally essential for the support and safety of those who are carrying the burden of this unprecedented struggle lor freedom and democracy. The aim of the Woman’s Liberty Loan Committee is to form an organi- zation which shall make the woman In every home in the land realize these conditions and her responsi bility, that the message shall not teach her only from one direction, bat ¡from many, so that she shall be »ought to a full realization of her responsibility.
