Their Advent in Politics Will Bring
Wholesome Effect, He '
Believes.
Lennard Wood has welcomed heart}
ly the advent of uomcn to acme par
tlclpation in our political life He has
been impressed. in the course of 3 ca
reer that has sbono him many varied
phases of the modern oidcnln: of vvo
man‘s influence, that the coming or the
so called gentler sex into public affairs
is a gain for civilization and will re-
sult in renewed hope for the world at
large, Wood has endeared himself to
American women for his humanitarian
achievements in various fields or en
deavor, in which he was enabled to
bring vastly improved conditions to
the homes. schools, hospitals and char
liable institutions under hls lnliuc-nce.
In connection with this subject Wood
says:
"W omen are bringing on elevating
lnllucnce into public life that will tend
to correct many of the ex is to which
our present unrcst is due. One of the
reasons for the growth of undesirable
tendencies in our country has been the
rcgrctable fact that countless men.
qualified by education and character
for public service. have wantonly neg‘
lected their civic duties.
“With the coming of women to the
polls, these turn will be ashamed to
disregard the political duties they for-
merly shirhctl, A man who spends
election day at his club while his wife
was at the polish sure to forfeit tlu-
respect or the community.

tion of the social evil, To that and to
other of our vital problems tho}~ now

Women realize that our American «'3‘;-
lllzatlon can never be what it sho-‘d
be until we give as much care to the
l upbringing of our children as \vc do to

Women's Great War Service.
"In short. the difficulties that up-
parcnlly beset our national future
would confront us as immensriy more
lnsupcrahle if we could not look {or-
wnrtl in overcoming: them through the
assistance of voting women. The
granting of sui‘i‘ratzc to «moon gives us
the promise of an amazingly bcttér
world in the years to come
“There is one ficld into which the
women are coating that can be called
the big field 'It is the field of national
politics. Personally. having scen what
the women did during the war, both at
home and libroad, I feel very confident
that the entrance of American women
into the field of American politics is
going to have a very helpful and good
influence. I think they are going to
bring a healthy influence. one which
will make our politics cleaner and in-
troduce a better splrit into the political
field.
“\Vc have t-vuson to be proud of the
American Wnlllt'n during the war. I do
not know of any part of the country
where American women did not take
hold of the situation with kccn energy.
I know from personal cxpcricnccs in
the Middle. West and neighboring
states the womcu «lid everything hu-
manly possible to scnd our men over-
seas sound in body and clean in soul.
They looked after the men in the towns
near the camps: they maintained ex-
cellent conditions of public morality;
they looked after the men when they
were en route to the sen: they were
at the ports of embarkntlon to give the
last help they could give. and when the
men arrived on the other side they
found American women scattered at
various points of activity from the
ports of debarkatlon up to the fighting
line. We found the women of the Red
Cross, the women of the Salvation
Army and others actually in the battle
area doing work. In fact, the work of
women In all kinds of war activities
was wonderful."
