At this time when the women of
the nation are looking with keenest
interest to the International Confer
ence for the Reduction of Armament,
already so gloriously started, it is in
teresting to remember that two years
ago in the early morning of the first
Armistice Day, November II, 1913.
while the bells were ringing and every
one was rejoicing ove news of the
great victory, our national w. c. I.
U. president sent out the following
proclamation for World Peace, World
Purity, World Patriotism, and World
Prohibition:
"World democracy, world peace,
world purity, and world patriotism,
demand world prohibition.
Representing the National Wom-
ans Christian Temperance Union of
the United States of America, a Re
public about to- write prohibition in
its constitutional law, we hereby call
upon the peoples of all faiths and of
all organizations in the worlds fam
lily of nations, to clasp hands with the
Worlds W. c. T. U. and to help bring
to full fruition its hope and its heroic
service of thirty-fve years on behalf
of a sober world. Science declares
against alcohol. Health, conserva-
ton and business prosperity demand
total abstinence and prohibition. To
gether let us agitate, educate, organ
ize and legislate, until the exalted
vision of the founder of the Worlds
w. C. 7. u, Frances E. Willard, is
realized; until the Gospel of the Col
den Rule of Christ is worked out in
the customs of society and in the laws
of every land.
cat the close of the devastating
World War, in the white heat of the
limitless unparalleled opportunities
of a new decentralization, depending
upon the help of God and of all who
love humanity, we herewith proclaim,
by the year 1925, the triumph of
world prohibition"
May the dream of the National and
Worlds president, Miss Anna Adams
Gordon, come true.

According to DR.. Frederic Lucas, no
case is known to science in which a
man has died from the bite of Il ella
monster.
The bad reputation of thi, curious
animal dates back to the Seventeenth
century. when the Spaniards brought
from Mexico accounts Of a reptile so
venomous that ever its breath caused
death. The so-called monster" POS
sesses a venom that is deadly to small
animals, but the apparatus for inject
ing the venom is extremely imperfect.
DIR. Lucas tells of one specimen that
was kept as a pet by q f~ive-year-"ld
girl and never offered TO bite. An
other one inflicted a severe bite or an
attendant at Brooklyn museum, but
the man recovered.
