WILL YOU BE A VICTORY GIRL
United War Work Campaign is Now in Progress
in County
The organization for this campaign is being started in
Plymouth County, Anna L Marcue is chairman for the work in this
county and is appointing a leader in each township, who in turn
appoints lieutenants in each community or school district who
will organize girls between ages of 12 and 20 whether they be
high school, grade, parochial, rural, or employed. It has been
decided although the goal is in GIRLS rather than money, the unit
spoken of is $5.00. 32,000 girls in Iowa will naturally, at this
rate, result in a fund of $160,000 for the United War Work
Campaign. The motto of the campaign is "Earn and Give". The
national goal is 1,000,000 girls and the national slogan "Every
Girl Pulling for Victory."
