She is most frequently remembered present most likely as Marshal Alexander Piłsudska.
And present we would like to remind her as a Companion of “Ola”, a PPS militant, a heroic “dromeder”, that is, a courier with the hazard of life carrying weapons and illegal publications for the purposes of the Polish underground, as a commandant of couriers in the Polish Legions, as an activist of the Polish Military Organization, as a individual decorated with the Cross of independency with Swords for his peculiar participation in regaining Poland's sovereignty.
In 1934 Adam Prochnik wrote about the beginnings of her conspiracy activity in the late 19th and 20th centuries:
“Every day it matures the knowing of the harm done to Poland. Hands are rife to fight the panic of the oppressor. Miss Ola is organizing secret self-education circles. It groupes around its friends with stronger characters and absorbs with them the past of Polish independency struggles. Talks, discussions full of enthusiasm and dreams about free Warsaw fill in the content of the conversations of this youth circle. Ola's greedy cognition absorbs quite a few books of socio-political content. For the first time, Marx’s “Capital” falls into her hands and deepens her social news. It adheres to these countless masses of Polish mediocre people, tormented by repression of exploiters and oppressors. She longed for life to service all the loving thought of liberating them from the stump of both oppressors. During this time, the enthusiasm of a tiny group of Suwałki girls increases by first contact with another combat facilities. 1 day in the hands of the members of the ellipse is “Robotnik”. The first transport of “bibles” gives them incredible enthusiasm. They learn where and how Polish underground thought works.“.
Soon she was part of the Polish Socialist Party, where she met her leader, Józef Piłsudski.
