ity League work.
She was the first woman to become
member of the Leagues National Ex-
ecutive Committee, and is secretary OF
the Leagues Committee on Patriotism
Through Education.
Mrs. Preston's message to the wO-
men Of the country reads in full:
"Proclaim Liberty"
"'Proclaim Liberty throughout ALL
THE LAND unto all the inhabitants
thereof
'"These words were written about
1890 years before Christ, as part Of
the Law Of Holiness in the Book OF
Leviticus. Our fathers inscribed them
upon the Liberty Bell which called our
mighty nation into life.
To-day all the inhabitants enjoy
liberty, the Jew and the Gentle, the
rich and the poor, the native and the
alien-born, the weak and the strong.
The old Liberty Bell is silent, for its
voice has been heard Throughout all
the land
"But Liberty is not safe. It il men
aced along the battle fronts Of many
nations, our own among them, and
America requires a new motto for her
old Bell: Proclaim liberty through.
out ALL LANDS unto all the inhab.
itants thereof Until liberty is safe
in all lands, it can not be safe in our
own. Hence the task to which Amer.
lea has reverently and unselfshly ded-
icated herself.
"Make Motto Real"
"The Fathers Of this Republic, men
Of many races, with q common love Of
liberty, wrought into law our ancient
motto, thus giving liberty chance to
enlighten the world.
To-day we, their descendants, are
called upon to make real the new
motto, and thus to give liberty the
undisputed right to bless the world
"This can be done but only after
heroic struggle and self-sacrifice. A
premature peace would mean failure.
IT would be only less disastrous than
complete defeat. Against al tempta-
tions to compromise the women Of
America should stand firm and united
"Peace and Safety"
"Victory means peace and safety
for our children; defeat means hui
initiation and practical servitude for
them; while a negotiated peace, with
the military machine of Prussia un-
broken, means that everything in their
lives must be subordinated to the task
of preparing for another war with
Germany. We can win now II Amer
lea can be held steadfast and I'M
swerving, and the women Of America
can hold her steadfaSt."

Big War Picture Opens
Queen Theatre

Captain Donald G.. Thompson,
who personally took the picture
of The German Curse in Rus
sia" whice Pathe presents at the
Queen Theatre here Saturday
August 3rd, is said to be the
nervlest war photographer Of
all times. and he has probably
seen more war than any other
living being OF all the hordes of
adventurous characters who
were drawn to the Continent
upon the outbreak of the Worl d
War, as iron filings are attracted
by magnet, there is no doubt
that Thompson, is the most
picturesque. He went to every
battle front and under the most
adverse circumstances succeed
ed in obtaining the most valuable
collection Of war pictures in
existence. When German in
trigue began to work in Russia
he speeded to that Country, and,
after spending eleven months
tn ere and has brought back
with him what will remain as
the best records of those hap
penings of the bloody days" Of
Russia that could be obtained.
One of the most remarkable
features is the first actual mo
tlon pictures of the blowing up
of fourteen boats by the Russian
Black Sea Fleet in full view of
the camera. These remarkable
pictures have never been equal
ed and it is doubtful if they will
ever be. 1t was only by the use
of telephoto lens on the gyro-
scope camera that Mr.. ThOmp-
son used that made the pictures
possible.
This picture will be put on
here at the Queen Theatre Sat
urday night, August 3rd. The
Admission to this show will be

price for all. Stamps Oh sale at
