The Purpose and Scope of the
Woman's Christian Temp
erance Union.

The Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union reaches out into every
line of service in the home, social or
civic life, and touches every spring of
action that can be correlated for hu-
manity's good. Its scope is as wide
as the universe and limited only for
humanity's need. Its motto, For
God and Home and Every Land"
holds within it's compass all that
makes life worth living. True to its
God-given mission the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union pursues
it's "Do Everything policy whose eff
fectiveness the present status OF
public sentiment and action amply
approves. It's achievements read like
a thrilling romance.
In these days Of our country's
deepest need the w. C. T. U. is prov
ing it's patriotism by it's eagerness to
sacrifice and serve The plans of the
government for the conservation OF
food, the protection of the health and
morals of soldiers and sailors and the
promotion of their comfort at home
and abroad have its most hearty CO.
operation. 1t welcomes every aid IN
it's endeavors to foster community
helpfulness and it co-operates with
all kindred organizations in working
out the best plans for patriotic serv-
ice.
The allied temperance forces OF the
nation are now very near the goal OF
national constitutional prohibition.
Thirty-six states must ratify the fed
eral amendment forever prohibiting
the manufacture and sale of alcohollc
beverages. Having for more than for
ty years advocated total abstinence
for the individual and prohibition for
the state and nation, today the Wom-
ans Christian Temperance Union IS
intensifying it's efforts to create and
arous an avalanche of public opinion
in favor of the extinction of the IL
quor traffic.
The w. C. T. U. appeals to each
h~ome-loving woman for such measure
of support as she a give its far
reaching program of service. Once a
forlorn hope, forced by woman's de-
spair to face an ~implacable foe IN
the arena of public action, the w. c.
T. u. has wrought so nightly for the
public veal that no history OF the
nation will be complete without a
record of it's achievements. Oppor-
tunity waits to make its future as
thrilling as its past. The heart OF
American womanhood beats in uni
son with the heart Of the W. c. 7. U.
Will YOU enlist and with the w. G.
T. U. work. to make the world safer
happier and better through the trl-
umph of Christ's Golden Rule in
custom and in law?-Palmetto White

QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a glass of Salts if your
Back hurts or Bladder
Troubles you

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which excites the kidneys
they become overworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter
the waste and poisons from the blood,
then we get sick. Nearly all rheum-
atism, headaches, liver trouble, ner-
Vousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or if
the urine is cloudy offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy; take tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast and in a few
days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for gem
erations to flush and stimulate the
kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irri-
tation, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink which every
one should take now and then to keep
the kidneys clean and active and the
blood pure, thereby avoiding serious
kidney complications

Let them forget that we threw our
weight in 1872 against that great cap
tain of democracy, William Pitt, and
added our strength to the side of the
despot, Napoleon.
Let the British rather think of the
Declaration of Independence as one
of the greatest declarations of the
rights of mankind, along with the
Magma Charta, in the history of the
world. Let them rather erect statues
to the memory of Washington and
Lincoln, and place them side by side
with the memorials to Cromwell and
Gladstone let them rather remember
that the British peoples are fused to-
gether in America, as in no part of the
British isles: Scotch, Irish, Welsh and
English, which with the best blood
of continental Europe. has developed
a superior race of freemen.
AS a basis for world peace, a com
plete understanding, cooperation and
sympathy is first necessary between all
the English-spea countries. We
Americans must realize that Britain
is striving for the same ends as our
selves, the splendor and excellency of
the nation, and the brotherhood of
mankind. The millennium, cannot be
forced to any extent. 1t will arrive
sooner. if practical men arrange the
peace terms, than if idealists are all
lowed to carry out some impractical
schepe. The world wide satisfaction,
outside of the Teutonic powers. with
British control of the seas for the
past hundred years, should receive
the most earnest consideration of the
peace conference and the league to en-i
force peace, as a practical basis or
which to establish control

fought to a draw, the German propo-
sition at the peace conference would
have been to create neutral zones of
all the strategic sea highways-suCh
startesic points as the Panama canal,
the Suez canal and Gibraltar. An in
ternational commission, dominated by
Germans, to control these zones, was
the object. What they failed to obtain
by force, they may now obtain by
guile, II our statesmen do not display
shrewdness at the coming peace con-
ference.
There are but few black spots on
the pages of English history. one of
the Few counts against them is the ex-
ecutlon of Joan of Arc. This took
place several hundred years before
the murder of Nurse Cavell by the
Germans. and many years before the
burning of the witches int New Eng
land. If any person was ever legit-
mately convicted of witchcraft, it was
Joan of Arc. An army of defeated
laggards was suddenly transformed
under her leadership, into Il legion
OF unconquerable heroes. The English
army, carrying all before them, were
themselves defeated by the same
troops under the leadership of nero

pie ia dark and ignorant age. for

conviction by the church authorities
OF France. the French were partly re-
sponsible for her execution. In atom
ing Tor their share in her death, the
English have probably done more to-
perpetuate her memory than have the
French themselves.
Another connt against the English
IS the Irish question, Volumes have
been written on both sides of this
question, but only in the past year
have lrishmen in America been will

and the British government are doing

please both the north of Ireland and
the southern portion.
We Americans must now forget the
preJudices engendered by the revou-
ton, the war of 1912 and the Irish
questions; prejudices continually re-
vived and intensified by the Germans
in their attempt to drive the wedge
Albuquerque morning journal. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1903-1926, 1918-12-06

between the two peoples,
Let us remember the common herit-
age, which entities us to claim equally,
as part of our history, the glory of
the great victory over the Spanish
armada. when the Anglo Saxon peoples
were pitted against the barbarous in
questions and the North American
continent was saved to English colo
nization. Let us rather remember the
long boundary line without a gun or a
soldier, between ourselves and Cana
da; the friendly action of the British
admiral at Manila bay; the origin of
the Monroe doctrine in the mind of
the British statesman Canning and its
protection by the British fleet ever
since. Let us rather remember that
on March 81, this year. the British
army, almost unaded, received and
finally repulsed the German blow
which was to stagger humanity; a
blow which was the greatest military
offensive in the history of the world;
a blow far greater than Germany had
struck before, or was able to strike
afterwards because the flower of their
army was destroyed by the tired and
retreating British troops
Let the Jewish Americans also for
get their prejudices against the Brit
ish, when they are reminded that
through the past centuries Great Bri-
tain has given the Jews greater polit-
ical and social freedom than any 9TH
err country: and that one of the first
acts of the English in Jerusalem, was
to lay the foundation stones of He
brew university. and to offer them any
form of government that they desire.
Fifty years ago, when DiSraeli, the
Jew, was prime minister of England,
which is the greatest honor that the

have been impossible to elect Jew

with the office of prime minister in
