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.
