Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 88, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 April 1918 — COMES TWENTY-FIVE MILES TO REGISTER. [ARTICLE]

COMES TWENTY-FIVE MILES TO REGISTER.

The first woman to register in Rensselaer was Mrs. Steincamp, of Walker township, who after having traveled twenty-five miles, presented herself at Red Cross headquarters on Friday with the statement that she had come in to register. That is a fine example of the spirit of Jasper county women Und the workers in the Red Cross and similar organizations are commenting on the growing interest taken by women even in the remote sections of the county in various forms of war work.

The English and French women have shouldered many burdens put upon them by- changed conditions and have won great praise and gratitude from their governments. It has been stated that women of England are practically carrying the business of the country. American women will do fully as well with their responsibilities, but they must be more completely organized and learn to work together. This nation-wide registration of the women is one big step in the right direction. The cards for registration are the product of the united efforts of Miss Ida Tarbell and two experts from the census department and they have made the process of registration both interesting and stimulating. A registration booth has been erected in the Red Cross headquarters in Rensselaer and many patriotic women will prefer to register there thus saving time not only for the registrars, but for themselves also, when they are busy with home duties and do not wish to be interrupted. The registrars are loyal women and girls who are contributing their time and energy to this careful house-to-house canvass, and you are asked to give them your most courteous consideration. They are doing a public service and will give you the opportunity to register when your home cares or illness might make it impossible for you to reach headquarters.
