American Honda presents DC Comics' Supergirl : in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Transportation's national safety belt campaign
Educational comic book produced and distributed in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Safety Belt Campaign.<br /><br />A message from Elizabeth Hanford Dole, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation is printed inside the front cover. <br /><br />"I know you're all looking forward to gettin gyour driver's licenses soon. But driving a car is a big responsibility. So here are a couple of questions for you to think about. How important do you feel it is to buckle up your safety belt when you get into a car? Do you think you or any of your friends will bever be involved in an accident? Maybe you've never thought about it, but you should. Every ten seconds, someone is injured in a crash. And every ten minutes, someone is killed. You can expect to be in an accident at least once in your life. If you use your safety belt, you more than double your chances of surviving."

An Introduction to the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan [United Klans of America pamphlet]
Pamphlet outlining the beliefs and membership requirements of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (United Klans of America). This pamphlet was produced by the <span>Virginia Office, United Klans of America, in Chesapeake. It includes a statement by Robert M. Shelton, identified as Imperial Wizard.<br /><br />Excerpts:<br /><br />"The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan...is not now making and does not intend to make any fight on the Roman Catholic Church as a religious institutions, but it will unalterably and unequivocally oppose any move of the Catholic Church or of any other church, individual or organization which attempts to bring about a combination of church and state in these United States." <br /><br />"The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan is not the enemy of the negro. It opposes and will continue to oppose, the efforts of certain negro organizations and periodicals which are sowing the seeds of discontent and racial hatred among the negros of this country by preaching and teaching social equality and mongrelization of the races....we hold it is obligatory upon the negro race, and upon all othered colored races in America to recognize that they are living in the land of the white race by courtesy of the white race; and the white race cannot be expected to surrender to any other race, either in whole or in part, the control of its vital and fundamental governmental affairs." <br /><br />"No Jew can obtain citizenship in the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan....The constitution and regulations of the Order set forth that the living Christ is the Klansman's criterion of character. Therefore, it would be unjust to allow the Jew to enter into the fellowship with the Klavern by appealing to his patriotism, and then have him cease to attend because every meeting would be out of harmony with his religious convictions." <br /><br />"Be it known, that the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan was YESTERDAY, is TODAY and will FOREVER be opposed to Communism in any form and to its fellow-travelor organizations. The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan will fight to our last breath, using every means at our disposal to rid our country of this insidious plague of mankind."</span>

Anti Suffrage Bill. By Woman, was Eden lost, and man cursed [anti-suffrage handbill]
An emotional appeal from H. P. Petersen against "Woman Suffrage, that Godforsaken Evil." <br /><br /><strong>By Woman, was Eden lost, and man cursed.</strong><br /><br />If you trust her, give up all hope of heaven. She cannot love, because she is too selfish. She may have a fancy, but that is flattery. Her smiles are deceit. Her vows are traced iin sand. She is a thread of candor, with a web of wiles.<br /><br /><strong>Her Charity is Hypocrisy.</strong><br /><br />She is deception every way, hair, teeth, complexion, heart tongue and all. Regarding matrimony, I would not have a Suffragist in my presence, for all the world. It is the duty of the U..S. Government to drive that stubborn woman home, and compel her to take care of the home and the children, where she belongs.<br /><br /><strong>Down with Woman Suffrage, that Godforsaken Evil.</strong><br /><br />Any feminine entering politics, filling offices, running street-cars and automobiles, loses her motherhood. Any man who does ot defy the Evil is babylike. Woman Suffrage is a crime against the Bible and against Nature. Any feminine, who does not take care of the home, but otherwise enters politics, belongs to jail.<br /><br /><strong>The majority of men worship women as their God.<br /><br /></strong>I am not going that crazy yet. I worship God in Heaven as my God. It is an unnatural idea, to have that female image on the coin. Nature has placed man to be the head of the woman in everything and run governmental affairs. What a childish idea to let woman run mans affairs.<br /><br /><strong>The Bible demands that a woman must be in submission to man. <br /></strong><br />Turn to the Bible and read the following verses and be convinced:<br />I Tim. 2: 9-15.

Anti-Suffage Arguments [anti-suffrage handbill]
Handbill from the Virginia Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage articulating arguments against giving women the right to vote. The Association give several reasons why suffrage will not help working women. <br /><br />The VAOWS was a group of women opposed to suffrage who organized in Richmond in 1912. They were affiliated with the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Association_Opposed_to_Woman_Suffrage#Virginia_Association_Opposed_to_Woman_Suffrage" target="_blank" title="Wikipedia article" rel="noreferrer noopener">National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage</a>. <br /><br />Excerpts: <br /><br />"Votes cannot make work when there is no work.<br />Votes cannot increase wages when there is no natural increase in business. <br /><br />The best safeguards for the working women are found in those States where the laws have been made by men voters....<br /><br />The badge of the Consumer's League has done more for the relief of the working women, than any vote could ever do. <br /><br />A woman's citizenship is as great and as real as that of any man. The Anti-Suffragists stand for the true view of woman's place in the State."

Anti-Suffrage Arguments. DANGER! [anti-suffrage broadside]
A single-sided handbill published by the Virginia Association Opposed to Woman's Suffrage. The handbill argues that woman suffrage will lead to socialism and the destruction of the Christian family and the holding of private property. <br /><br />See also "<a href="https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/show/68" target="_blank" title="anti-suffrage handbill, 1915" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Red Behind the Yellow</a>." <br /><br />Text: <br /><br />Anti-Suffrage Arguments<br />DANGER ! <br />WOMAN's SUFFRAGE THE VANGUARD OF SOCIALISM<br /><br />Proof. --See here-- <br />1. What is Socialism? <br />Socialism is against Christian marriage. <br />Socialism is against the Christian family. <br />Socialism is against the holding of private property. <br />Socialism is against Christianity. <br />Socialism is against the Bible. <br /><br />2. If you hold your marriage, your family life, your home, your religion, as sacred, dear and inviolate, to be preserved for yourself, and for your children, for all time, then work with all your might against Socialism's vanguard--Woman's Suffrage. <br /><br />3. In a parade in New York City last November they openly marched together. The Woman Suffragists as the vanguard, with their yellow flags. The Socialists behind with their red flags. <br /><br />4. The Socialist red flag had this inscription: "Every Socialist is a Woman Suffragist."<br />Does every Virginia WOman Suffragist intend to be a Socialist?<br /><br />5. We hope not. But "There is a way which seemeth righ unto a man, but the end thereof is death."<br />Danger lies ahead of you. <br /><br />Do you recognize the kindship? <br />Is not this Plain enough for you? <br /><br />Literature can be obtained free of cost at <br />Meyers Book Store, First and Broad Streets<br />Bell Book and Stationery Co, 914 E.

Anti-tuberculosis play at Lyric Theatre, 901 E. Broad Street, Richmond, Va.
<p>French bacteriologists Albert Calmette (1863–1933) and Camille Guérin (1872–1961) finalized the Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine for tuberculosis in 1921. The vaccine remains the only tuberculosis vaccine in use today. While not perfect, it is one of the most widely used vaccines and reaches more than 80 percent of all children in countries where the disease is common. <br /><br />The BCG vaccine was a major weapon in public health efforts to fight tuberculosis—an ongoing battle dramatized by Richmond children in this 1921 play. In this panoramic photograph, a "Modern Health Crusader" brandishes a sword shaped like the double-barred cross that was the emblem of the crusade. The crusader carries a "Modern Health Crusader" shield and fights "Tuberculosis" who is dressed all in black. <br /><br />The Modern Health Crusaders campaign was devised by Charles De Forest of the National Tuberculosis Association.</p>
