Arizona Service League Is Decided Upon at Housing Meeting at Which Men and
 Women Take up Big Work

largely attended meeting for the organization of an Arizona Service league was held in the Womans club building yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Frederick A. Stafford presided and Mrs. William L. Pinney acted as temporary lsecretary.
 After an able presentation by Mrs. Stafford of the reasons for organiZa- ton, Captain Latimer, who served in the Spanish American war, talked in terestingly of the condition If the men in the army. He stated that each cap tain was expected to save something each month from the amount allotted his men for rations and that this sum could be used for dehcacies in the hos pital or for little luXuries for the troops. Each man is allowed a certain amount Tor clothing, against which he draws. and any balance is paid to him in cash at the end of his enlistment. Captain Latimer brought out the fact that all the soldiers needs are provided for, but that all his wants might not be; also that an efficient organization might do much for the families of these men and for the men themselves when they re- turn from the war, possibly crippled and maimed. The keynote of his talk

He said that while in the early days of the war the Red Cross was not looked upon as a very efficient organization, it is fast becoming so, and is just at the beginning of its greatest usefulness. He stated that an act is about to be passed by congress to create fund for the relief of the families of the men at the front and to assist, with legal or other advice, those left with unac- customed business responsibilities at home. MT. Goodrich strongly urged that everything done for the men or their families be offered without the slightest touch of charity.
 Mrs. H. A Huild, president Of the District Federation of Woemn's clubs, spoke of the desire of the women to be of some real service at this time and their anxiety to be shown the way in which their work would count. She felt that the Arizona Service league T-- -7~0~'0~"S offe~0d the opportunity to every woman in the community to do i.-elOLILe,I WOfh.

 George Crimson Howard, who wrote "The Spy" will he remembered as an author of international fame, whose works are widely known. In The Spy he seems to have reached climax and given to the world a story which brings home in a forcible manner the terrible menace of the modern spy system and all it's subtle workings.

RaIf Way to Victory.

August l, 1917, was a glorious
day for temperance reform in
the United States. For the first
time in the history of the nation
a nationwide Prohibition meas
ure passed one House of Con-
gress.
The victory is the more notable
when it is remembered that a
two.thirds vote was required.
The Senate gave this vote with
eight to spare, submitting a Pro-
hibition amendment of the Con-
stitution of the United States to
the several states for ratification.
On December %, 1914, the House
of the 63rd Congress voted on a
similar resolution, which received
a majority vote, but not the nee
essary two-thirds. This marks
rapid progress.
h The resolution now goes to the
House. Just when that body
will take it up for final action is
not known.
