l0IlE Achievements Etched In Tragic Tasks of War
By LOTTA DEMBSEY Closely allied with the develop- ment or the womenls movement in the last half century has been the growth and Influence of the Im- perial order Daughters of the Eln- pire, which hol-is its sotn annual vmeetinz in Montreal May 26 to 81. ' There are mary significant facts about the body of 30,000 Canadian women orgnniz.-d in close to a thousand chapters from Prince Ed- ward Island to the Yukon. One of them should make every worker in the organization an ar- dent emissary for peace and good- will among countries. Why. especially this group? Be- cause. according to a pamphlet issued by the hand ofiice on Low- ther Ave., Toronto, the work of the women who belong has traced a tragic pattern set by three wars. First listed highlight oi activi- ties was the locating at Canadian soldlers' graves and erecting a monument for those who fell in the South African War. The order raised and spent 3!.- 500,000 on various projects during the First world war. The order raised and spent 36,000,000 during the Second World War. . Most important follow-ups or both world wars have been provid- ing educational opportunities to children of men: who were killed or Inc-pacitated. In other words, it has taken the dedicated and persistent efforts of some of this cmmi.ry's,active. in-

No one uadarastlmaiss now great part-especially in the field of voluntary eltort-carried on by women workers in the war of 1039- 46. But it is doubtful ii there would be the same pattern of work car- ried on in the event or another ca- tastrophe. What field comforts would one provide for example, to victims of atomic sickness? Would there be time to see the boys away, flags flying and bands play- ing, it the bombs came here first?

In the other plane. also hlth over ocean, when we asked, in some surprise. if a similar drill was not fortheorning, it was explained that since the flight was considered such a safe one it was felt that any discussion of this sort would sim- ply disturb the passengers.
