Organization Will be Completed in Janu-
AIRY. You are Invited to Join.
The Maine Peace Society has issued
the following circular:
Maine, like other New England States
will soon have peace society in active
operation. A meeting to elect officers
and to complete the organization tempo
rarily made on Nov. 28th will be held in
Portland in January.
This association will be a branch of
the historic American Peace society, of
which Senator Theodore E. Burton is
president, and of which practically all
the local societies of the United States
will soon be constituent bodies. Every
State member will become member of
the national society by paying the an
nual membership fee of one dollar, and
will receive the Advocate of Peace. the
journal of the peace movement, free.
This monthly magazi e, edited by DR..
Benjamin f. Trueblood, contains re-
views of current events in the inter-
national world, important addresses
made on the peace movement and news
CT the peace societies. 1t is like bond
of union for all members.
The peace movement, now recognized
by educators and statesmen as the great
est humanitarian cause of our time, is
constructive in its methods. 1t seeks to
prevent war and to secure international
justice through legislation adopted by
The Hague conference, and by the sub
mission of international disputes to The
Hague court. 1t encourages the nego-
tiation of arbitration treaties and pro-
notes friendly intercourse among all ma
tons. 1t aims to improve the standard
of international morals, and, SO far as
possible, to conserve national resources
for civic uses.
Any person in Maine who desires to
have part in thi great movement may
do so by becoming a member of the
Maine Peace Society. The membership
fee of one dollar should be sent to James
L. Tryon, organizing secretary, 81 Bea-
con street, Boston, Mass, who will re-
port upon all memberships received up
to the time of the meeting for perma-
nent organization.
Will you not be one of the original
members of the Maine Peace Society?

committee:

STAR CONTESTANTS
MAKING PROGRESS

The mails from the other islands on
Saturday and Sunday brought in very
definite evidence that The Stars prize
contestants outside of Oahu are going
to make a strong fight for some of
the highest prizes. Several hustlers
on Kauai have already secured a sur
prising number of votes, as have also
number on Hawaii. Maui has not
shown up so well, but three or four
contestants have made a very credit
able showing The fact that the can
didates on the outside islands are
fewer in number counts in their favor,
besides some of them are not contin-
ing their efforts to their own islands,
but by writing letters have secured
a good many votes right in Honolulu,
and some even on the Coast.
On next Saturday, November is,
all the subscriptions taken up to that
time must be sent in, and as soon as
those from the other islands are re-
ceived the first standing of the con-
testants will be announced in this
column. This does not close the con-
test, but is only the first leg of the
race, as it were. The contest will not
end until sometime after the first of
the year, the exact date not having
yet been determined upon, but will
be announced later.
1t is not yet too late to make a
start. In fact several new candidates
entered their names last week. and
| have already made more progress
than many who were in from the first,
There are always a lot of persons in
any kind of enterprise who keep put
ting off. 1t is because of this fact
that new workers who get right to
work are able to make the progress
they do.
The candidates who are going to
get the big prozes are the ones who
are going at the work in a systematic
and business-like manner A good
way to go about this is to sit down
and make out list of all the people
you know. Then go to directory OF
telephone list and pick all the names
of persons you think ought to take
The Star. With such a list made out
the contestant can see or write To
one person after the other and in a
