THURSDAY, MAY 23, 1918 Consolidation of Suffrage Bodies An endeavor is being made to unite the separate suffrage organiza- tions of the communities along the North Shore with the Evanston or- ganization in order that more con- structive work may be done by the larger body than is possible by the several smaller bodies, and that these small organizations may thus be made eligible to affiliation with the national organization, a rela- tionship which is limited to groups numbering at least five hundred. There may have been a time for individual work with suffrage groups but now, when the very best efforts of all who stand for the enfranchise- ment of women, is essential to turn all the work that has been done into achievement through the federal amendment, co-ordination of en- deavor and unity of action are more than ordinarily important. Woman's day is about to dawn and the women who have seen the promise through all the years of the past when the great majority of women seemed to be entirely content with a secondary place in the social order should now exert every effort to bring that dawn gloriously, in- dustrially, ectmnomicalty, socially and politically. The women's cause in every way is bound up in the suffrage cause and all women who are working for the advancement of their sex should be worleing to- gether. The groups in the North Shore towns have a certain quality which they can give to the Evanston group and the women who have worked under the Evanston banner have a history for 'achievement and an in- spiration for work which will be of immense advantage for our own women. It is high time that the two sets of earnest women, seeking the same thing, should begin io work with a common method, as they now work with a common purpose. How Much For The Red Crost? The Red Cross campaign is in full swing in Wilmette as elsewhere in the* United States. The Red Cross, that common meeting ground of all nations, all sects and races, must have money to carry forward the great work of healing the wounds that this bitter war inflicts, The American people, every na- tion that is in this war, have heard repeated calls for money. There is the war tax that greets us in almost every operation of our daily lives. There is the income tax and the ex- cess profit tax> the demand upon the unfortunate to contribute to the Safety of the institutions which have made their fortune possible., I ^rdenin«- l^f Red the Red Cross 4tt importance and appeal. To the men who have gone into service, to the saddened people of the devastated districts, to the sick and wounded, the Red Cross stands as the emblem of mercy arid pity and help. And it is the dollars of the people of the nations at war which keep that cross hovering over the scene of fearful carnage and destruc- tion. It is your dollars that remind the men in their hours of distress that there is thought being taken for them, for their safety and comfort by the people at home, for whom they are facing or making the sup- reme sacrifice. You would not wish to be found lacking in that line of helpers of the defenders of our faith and our homes and honor. The time has passed for argu- ments as to the reason for giving to the Red Cross. There is none of a spark of intelligence who can claim ignorance of the meaning of the Red Cross to the men who are fighting the war. It is only those who will not see who do not realize the supreme importance of this organiza- tion which brings a little order out of the chaos that is Europe today. You know, everybody knows, that it is the duty of every person to give to the fund which is to stand between our men and needless suffering, per- haps death. How much you are to give you must decide, not how much you can give without feeling it, but how much you can contribute without imperil- ing those dependent upon you or those to whom you are under financ- ial obligation. The utmost that you can spare is none too much to give to the Red Cross. You alone know how much that is and you must de- termine the amount. But do it, re- solved that you will err on the side of too much, if you err at all. RED CROSS CX.OCK TABULATES FUNDS Expect Grand Rusk for Pledges dur- ing Last Days of Nation-Wide Drive for Money All indications today pointed to the fact that the Wi1raette*Red Cross quota of $25,000 would be easily over- subscribed when the great national drive to obtain $100,000,000 is con- cluded on Saturday. More than $10,000 had been indi- cated on the large Red Cross Clock anchored on the roof of the Brown Building at Central and Wilmette avenues today and the final days of the drive were expected to ex- perience a general rush by residents for the Red Cross pledges. The high mark set on the dial of the clock is $40,000 and if is hoped that even that figure may be exceeded before the close of the campaign. Enough to Answer For.
