She urges them to be as pat riot I c :ls the men who have donned the khaki and to show their patriotism pa-triotism by encaging with the government govern-ment for nurse service. In the direct appeal she says: College girls of Utah, let's be ecpl to the college men, who do not hesitate hesi-tate to offer all they have to give. Now that the opportunityy has como and our country has ev inced a need for us, let "h be up and doing and prove that higher education for women wom-en tends loward efficiency and willing service. I, for one. offer all 1 can give to the government, ami I hope that the time when 1 shall be called for active service is not too far off. Tlm'o months of service with the Ued Cross h:iv convinced me lb.it there Is a gteat deal to be done, both at homo and at the front. Let It not be :ili th;it the women of this country failed u do their part. |
