    The battle of the North Atlantic is a grim business, and it isn’t going to be won by charm and personality.

    ... a friend told me that she had read of a woman who had knitted a wash rag for President Wilson. She was eighty years old and her friends thought it remarkable that she could knit a wash rag! I thought that if a woman of eighty could knit a wash rage for a Democratic President it behooved one of ninety-six to make something more than a wash rag for a Republican President.
    —Maria D. Brown (1827–1927)
