Main. One of the first duties of the com mittee will be to conduct a registra tion of all the women in the county. This registration is, of course, not compulsory. However, it is expected that all women will show their pat riotism and willingness to help the government by registering as the gov ernment requests them to. The pur- j pose of this registration is to find out just what each woman can and will do to help her country in this great crisis. All women are not equally pro ficient in the same work. One may be able to knit another to sew; another to make public speeches; and still another to drive an auto ambulance or run a gasoline tractor. There is no one who does not have at least one thing she can do well. The government does not intend to conscript female labor, but it does want the voluntary assistance of all women. Therefore there will be a registra tion of women on Wednesday. Septem- j Iter 12, from nine until six. This regisr j tration will be held throughout the; state, in the regular polling places in each township. Cards will be furnished , upon which to register. The registrars ! for Loup City township are: West j Ward. Mrs. R P. Starr and Mrs. C. j C. Outhouse; East Ward, Mrs. C- H. Ryan and Miss Elizabeth Leininger; j Austin. Mrs. Dan McDonald and Mrs.; Alonzo Daddow. On Saturday. September S, at three o’clock, a meeting will be held in the J basement of the library building in j lamp City for the purpose of fully ex plaining registration, both its purpose and the manner in which it will be held. All township chairmen and reg istrars should not fail to be present, and the committee urges all other wo men as well to attend.
