Ia every nation on cal tn today, even
in Germany and in Russia, woman oc
cllpy higher place than over before
Woman will have a larger share IN
shaping the world OF the future tnan
che has had in the past.
Two things Rev. Mr. Moore stated
specifically constitute woman's part u
making a better world The first OF
these is the improvement OF the hu.
man race. Continuing on this point, ne
said among other things:
There is nothing magical about
that, and there can De no short cut to
il. But we need race of better men
md we need it now, at once. This
must be the work OF women very
largely Every child has right to
be wen born, with clean blood az
clean mind, and he has a right to live
in an environment that viii make 1t
easy for him to keep clean. It will
come In the future and 1t ought to be
true now, that every person whose
blood is tainted with the kind of dis
ease that is responsible for children
that are injbecile, feeble-min6ed, or
physically unfit, shall be prohibited
flpm marrying and bearing offspring.
II this could be brought about. the
human race would be made over In
from one to three generations.
THE SECOND great task Of women
in building new world must De what
someone has called the use OF the
emotion Of the ideal This means that
she must help to put the spiritual
ideals OF mankind into practice. This
task need not wait for another gener-
talon. II Is one into which woman can
enter now. and the results can be
apparent in short time.

mans world dominated entirely by
masculine political ideas and opin-
Sens. Man has builded his world on

federation to the number of about
two hundred, accepted the invitation
which has been extended to them oy
Rev. Harvey j. Moore to attend the
service at the First Baptist church
last night to hear, the Rev. Mr.. Moore
speak on 'eWonan's Part in Building
q New World
Every seat IN the main auditorium
was taken, and many sat in the adj
jCining Sunday school room.
The sermon last night was the Sec
ond in a series of sermons being
preached on the theme of building a
new world.
Last evening Rev Mr.. Moore first
reviewed the history of the woman's
movement. both in its economic and
in its political aspects. He referred to
the colonial period when woman was
recognized only as the feminine OF
man. It was after the civil war. he
said, that the real woman's movement
began, and it was made necessary by
the fact that many women found
themselves compelled TO make their
cv-n living because their wage earn
ers had been either killed or disabled
by the war.

ideals that we have been talking so

Here is woman's great opportunity

More women are enfranchised today
than ever before, and soon all women

MEMORIAL TREES FOR DEAD
Governors of Each State Asked to Co

Tree Planting.

Motor highways to be marked with
memorial trees for the soldier dead is
the plan being urged by the American
Forestry association as suitable way
to mark the memory Of the heroes OF
the war. P. S. Ridsdale, secretary of
the association, says that the plan is
being taken up by many cities and
towns and the movement is assuming
countrywide proportions. The Gem
eral Federation of Women's Clubs has
taken up the suggestion for the Linz
coin highway.
"a Victory oak or a Victory elm
would certainly be the most appropris
ate way to remember our soldier dead"
said Charles Lathrop Pack, the presi-
dent of the American Forestry associh-
ton. "The motor has played q big part
in the war and it would be a very fine
thing for the highway associations p
take up this plan. Wood, too, has
played q big part in the war and our
stocks must be replenished. If each
state will cooperate in this movement
