TtROM the pulpit today, through M the school children and at worn JL en's club meetings these days, registration of women, for war service on Wednesday is being urged. A . . I f . . t . 1 a nouse-to-nouse visitation ior tne purpose of arousing interest and in viting women to appear at the polls is being carried on so far as work ers have time to canvass. Mrs. Margaret E. Sheldon, chair man of registration in Nebraska, env phasizes the following points: This '.$ the first official registration of all women called for by the United States. It is, therefore, a great event and will be history. No woman should fail to have a direct part in it It is voluntary. Therefore, going to the polls and registering are, in them selves, marks ot patriotism. Doing for her country in the future what she pledges on September 12 to do, is wholly a matter of ,honor with each woman. No punishment or censure will come to her if she finds herself unable to carry out her prom ise. This registration is held for the purpose of giving each loyal woman citizen an opportunity ot Saying di rectly to her government how she is serving it, how she wishes, in case of dire need, to serve it further.. It registers women for what they are doing, or what they wish to do, or what they wish to be trained to do in all departments of war work. Hence it does not necessarily im pose additional burdens upon those already at work. It does not mean another organization. It coordinates all present war ' work organizations among women. Every woman should register, even though she is already busy serving her country as a homemaker with children about her knees or in some other worthy time-consuming way. Thousands of young men are being called from the industrial and bust ness and professional lines of work to bear arms for our country. This must inevitably result in much of this work being done by young women There is an opportunity for young women to state their fitness to take up any of these lines of work and to indicate whether or not they wish to receive a salary. The government al ready is sending out ior women to do certain lines of work. The registration card itself is a treat compliment to American worn en, by implying there are so many worthy lines or work which women can do to serve their country. It is the first time in the history of Nebraska that the polling places have been given to all the women of the state for their use. The Association of Collegiate Alumnae will hold a reception at' the home of Mrs. Edgar Scott Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock in honor of the new members. Plans for Red Cross work and the subjects of study for the different departments will be discussed.
