In the coming years we shall need all the charm,aplomb and philosophy we can get.  It will be the task of women to keep the world from despond, to keep the prettier gestures of good living going with meager materials...We will not fail in any crisis to come.  To the extent of our ability we will keep the torch of civilized home-life burning.  We will create beauty with whatever materials are at hand.  We will fan the embers of kindness in a brute-stricken world...We will heal and hold to our hearts the wounded, the young, the needy.  It is a great privilege to be a woman today. ~  Margery Wilson 1928
