PLENTY' OF WORK FOB
WOMEN IN OWN FIELD
So many letters have been re
ceived by the woman's committee of
the Council of National Defease
from women asking for "man-sized"
jobs in the war work of the
tion that Mrs. Joseph R. Lamar
authorizes the following staittement:
"There is plenty of work for the
women to do in their own field of
labor; that is, ia the field in which
they have been working up to the
present time.
"The woman from .Pennsylvania
who tells u« of her ability to be a
soldier as valiant as any of the wo
men who compose the Russian Le
gion of Death shows remarkable
bravery, but there is really just as
much courage to be found in the
woman who is willing to conserve
food at this particular crisis in the
history o£ the war. She will be
helping the women of France and
England to stand up under the tar
rifi-cv strain imposed upon them.
The most h.eroic thing we can do is
to. help these women who have
come to the point of exhaustion, to
help .safeguard the devotion of
those workers over there, lest ir
reparable harm come to the next
generation.
1'iulramatic But important
"It is not so dramatic or inspiring
or appealing, perhaps, to conserve
food, but it is quite important,
and if we feel our responsibility as
keenly as the men who are daring
to do the actual fighting we will do
our bit here at home with all our
strength and make it possible to
keep the men in the trenches.
"Don't ecorn the clipping, the
knitting, and the canning. It Is
a noble duty. If you are strong as
a man, get out in the orchards of
your own valleys and help pick the
fruit. There is a scarcity of labor,
and the farmers want the strong
women to help. If you are in the
city, cook attractive diahas for your
family, using all your intelligence
in the use of food materials which
a-re no.t needed by the Allies.
"The keen desire on the part of
the women to be of real service to
the country is certainlj/ inspiring, aof
1 believe that every woman on the1
committee has ben deeplyj moved by
the thousands of offers to the
Government for volunteer service."
