MRS. NINA LAWSON DUNN

Mrs. lie Want Dodge has received
news Of the death Of her sister, Mrs.
Edward T. Dunn at Albuquerque,
New Mexico, on August is. She was
for several years a student OF Berea
College and taught at different places
in this county. An Albuquerque
paper contains the following appre-
ciative notice:
Mrs. Edward Thomas Dunn Of BOG
South Edith Street passed away this
afternoon after an illness OF some
weeks. In the death OF Mrs. Dunn
the community loses one who for
many years has been identified with
the best interests OF the state and
especially OF the Spanish-American.
Twenty-six years ago Nina Lam
son came TO Los Ranches de Atrisco

once entered with earnestness and
affectionate zeal into the life OF the
settlement learning the language Of
her pupils, and frequently visiting
in their homes.
After two years service she was
asked TO go TO San Mateo in Valen-
cia county TO take charge OF a
school there. For thirteen years
she lived in this remote village, as

death as that Of a beloved mother.
She was a natural nurse, and took
into her home many invalids for
whom she cared, as IL they were
members Of her own family, giving
mp this kind Of service only when
her own health no longer permitted.
For several years she taught the
pupils OF the Rio Grande Industri-
al school in the Sunday school Of
The Congregational Church.
During the war she was untiring
in the Home Service work OF the
Red Cross in Albuquerque and its
vicinity, stopping at nothing which
could be done for the comfort OF
the families assigned TO her.
She was devoted wife and
mother, and TO her home-making
brought the same competent activity
which had characterized her as q
social worker.
She is survived by her husband, f..
T. Dunn, and daughter, Miss Fauna.

ST. Louis (SpeciaD --Displaying high
confidence that his fellow citizens In
the great majority agree with him In
his desire TO end war forever, and that
they Will see TO 1t that the peace treaty
with Its League OF Nations inclusion
is ratified by the Senate, President
Wilson Is making successful way
across the country on the long Journey
he has undertaken for the purpose of
laying before the plain people re-
port OF his work In Paris and explain
ing TO them just what the League
means.
Thus far in his travels he has every
where met with warm greetings, both
In the great halls where he has spoken
formally and In the little cross-road
hamlets where his train has halted at
times and he has exchanged words
with the villagers who pressed for
ward TO greet him. He feels, and does
not hesitate to say so when chatting
with his travelling companions, that
the American people want no more OF
war and want to become part OF the
League SO that there may be no more
war. He struck his keynote when he
said In his first address, In Columbus,
Ohio:
This treaty was not intended mere
ly TO end this single war. Ii Is meant
as a notice to every government who
IN the future will attempt this thing
(what Germany attempted) that man.
kind Will unite TO inflict the same pun
ishment. There is no national triumph
70 be recorded In this treaty. There
is no glory sought for any particular
nation. The thought OF the statesmen
collected around that table was OF
their people. of the sufferings they had
gone through, OF the losses they had
Incurred. OF that great throbbing heart
which was so depressed, so forlorn, so
sad In every memory II had OF the five
tragical years that have gone by. Let
us never forget those years, my fell
low-countrymen let US never forget
the purpose, high and dislnterested,
with which America lent its strength,
not for Its own glory but for the de-
Tense OF mankind.
las / said, this treaty was not In
tended merely TO end this war. II was
Intended TO prevent any similar war
i wonder II some OF the opponents OF
the League Of Nations have forgotten
the promises we made our people be-
fore we went 10 that peace table. We

renee Of this dreadful catastrophe and
redeem our promises"
A League Of Nations would have
prevented tho late conflict, the Presi-
dent asserted, explaining:
Il did not meet single public man
who did not admit these things; that
Germany would not have gone int
this war II she thought Great Britain
was going into II, and that she most
certainly would never have gone into
II had she dreamed America was going
into II. And they all admit that ma
ton before hand that the greatest pow
ers of the world would combine to pre-
vent this sort OF thing would prevent
II absolutely"
Applause and cheers greeted each
declaration of the President that wars
might be avoided In future by the op-
erations Of the League.
He pointed out other important fea-
lures OF the peace treaty-how II was
the redemption OF weak nations, CIV
ing them freedom which otherwise
they never could have won; how II
says these people have a right TO live
their own lives under governments
which they themselves choose" and
how "that is the American principle
and was glad to hght for II" that
was the very heart Of the treaty, he
said.
He drew attention to the section Of
the treaty which is a magma charta OF

said. (which ought 10 have come long

In conclusion. the President said he
felt certain the treaty will be accept

lay. He added: "Do you realize, my
fellow-citizens. that the whole world
