wooDMEN OF THE WORLD

WOODMEN OF THE WORLD
 For some reason or other this lodge correspondent got his dates mixed for the write-up that should have been published in last Sundays issue did not reach our desk until Friday noon instead of Thursday, as it should have done; consequently. news items tha. would have been appreciated for that date had to be guessed at. There was. however, Q very good attendance to hear the minutes read and consider able interest taken in the business of the lodge, one of which was the evi- dent desire to clean up all outstaHd ing accounts and to have a clean slate with which to commence the new year of 1921.
 One of the items missed by last Sun days omission was the fact that J. E. West was the lucky member who drew the attendance prize of $S as a result of being in attendance when his name was drawn. He thinks he was excep- tionally lucky in being able to draw pay for having a good time One of the results of the absorption of the juven- ile departments by the head campsls the promoting of Sovereign Tom Cheat ' ham to the position of state manager Of all the departments. In making this promotion the head camp recognizes l the able and efficient manner in which 1 the affairs of the juvenile department ! has been handled by this officer for the records of the head camp show 1 that through his energies our state of ! Arizona has been placed upon the map in Q very able manner. having estab- lished record for efficiency far in excess of any state in the union. Brother Stewart is transferred to some other department and we know that ha will pcfgl11igh a Rnnn q TnPOrA there as he has here.
 No member can afford to miss the installation on January 3, for upon this occasion will be seen the three-roI film of the Woodman play secured at considerable expense by Sovereign Ellis. The cast takes the services of some 75 actors, and those who saw the play put on at the opera house will be able to appreciate the attention to de tail made possible by filming this play This will he free to all members and tc visitors by invitation ticket only. This will also be shown at Glendale Tues day. January f. under the auspices oi the Glendale team.
 Since the juvenile department has been absorbed by the order in general many have the idea that it IS no more; this is an error, for never was there a
 more alive bunch, and the transferring
 into the adult camps does not take place until they have reached the in ? teresting age of Is. The Women's cir cle is not yet prepared to make tho transfer into their lodge, but the neces- sary formalities are fast being com piled with and in the meantime every parent should not overlook the oppor-
 tunity afforded by this juvenile de partment, full particulars of which car
 be obtained from Sister Pryor.

THE FRATERNAL BROTHERHOOD

Christmas night was a blaze of glory in the lodge room of the Phoenix lodges. State Manager R. T. Mahon sent to Prescott to secure a tree that would be large enough for the occa- sion. It came, and it was large enough. In fact, it was so large that although the ladies had made what they thought vas ample provision they saw their mistake and got busy preparing double the amount. The result was that the large tree was covered with well filled Christmas bags and large as the crowd was each one present received one.
 A short meeting of Phoenix lodge No. 4S was held and then the president, William A. Johnson, presented Milton B. Morse, president of Liberty lodge No. 12. who conducted the following program:

Pat Smith as Harry Lauder was certainly satisfactory and gave the king a real treat. David Clarkson can sure play that banjo, and the king almost lost his balance trying to keep time, but free he went. Mar garet Blaine as the Japanese maiden sang so beautifully that the king al most lost his head; then the McNutts. Susan almost missed the train on her way to New York. but she showed that she could dance, while Boob shed tears at her leaving. Irene Brewer as the Fashionable Saleslady selling encyclo pedias tried to interest Susan, but of no avail. King Kanaka invited Susan to be sure and catch the train, which ended the program. Everyone de- clared it to be most successful. The floor was then cleared and dancing was enjoyed until the early morning hours, watching the old year fade out and the new year enter.

Phoenix council No. 2325 wishes each and every member a Happy New Year. Friday night, December 31, Phoenix council No. 2325 closed the year 1920 with one big boom in the form of a
 wild night, a real vaudeville. King Kanaka and Queen Kanaka were en- toying real life on Island Boneo, their favorite dancers were entertaining them. Florence Sloane and Fay Ny gren, as the little Hawaiian dancers. were certainly entertaining, when in rushed the guards, announcing that a ship had been wrecked on the beach and many survivors taken. King Kan aka ordered them brought before him and if they could entertain him to his satisfaction they would go free, other wise they would be thrown into the fattening pen for the stew. Little Alma Lowery was brought in and pleased the king with a Spanish dance and was set free. Then came the Wandering Four in conglomerations

Expose the Drug:Vampire!

A campaign Of education to check the ap-
palling spread of narcotic drug addiction in
the United States, now second Of the worlds
dope-bound nations, is crying need if thou
sands Of Americas youth are to be saved from
terrible enslavement
This secret vice today is authoritatively
said to claim between one and two million
victims in this country. 1t must be hauled out
into the open. Only thus can 1t be scotched.
Every parent every teacher and every ado
lescent youngster, at least should be acquaint-
ed with the facts and effects Of narcotic
habituation. 1t Is largely because of their ig-
norance that the dope bootlegger is enabled
SO lucratively to exploit the curiosity and bra
vado Of youth ready to embrace the merciless
vampire. And it is this adolescent questing
which. federal drug officials say, is rapidly
bringing the average age of addiction down
into the twentes. kids toying with hell-fire
for the sake OF a new kick" is the way Di-
rector Mutt Of the narcotic field force at Wash
ington phrases It.
And no one-at least no organized. trained
agency-to tell and warn these kids what price
they'll have to pay! Not one in a thousand
who have become confirmed drug users under
stood in the beginning that it takes only from
10 to 80 days to fix enslavement. and that
thereafter it requires almost superhuman will
and courage to break free. Few indeed ever
are permanently salvaged.
Tho first educational step needed to stamp
out this creeping horror is to squash the
vicious falsehood perpetuated since DR..
Quincys time by certain school OF writers and
by imaginative perverts. that the juice of the
poppy inspires pleasant dreams: that it opens
mysterious doors of life closed to the norma,
un-drugged mind. That Leland it is certainl,

It is not sufficient for the government to
attack the traffic through court and police ma
chinery. The pernicious drug disciple Of the
underworld must be countered by dissemina-
ton OF the disease facts. knowledge OF these
facts will prove the surest preventive

Your Luxuries.

HDurtns the single year 1919 the people Of
Ohio spent $300,ooO,OO0 more for luxuries than
was spont in that state for education between
thsyesrs'1s37 and 1919, according to COMPARE
tvs data presented by P. P. Claxton United
States commissioner Of education. Startling
nguEes-and. doubtless Illinois win show
similar disparity between expenditures for edu-
cation and luxury.
But IN 50 far as the increasing demand for
luxury represents the desire Of the common
man to live a broader and more comfortable
life, their can be no quarrel with luxury, least
of all among educators Indeed, education
would fall Of its purpose IL It did not create
in mon desire for other than the bare neces-
stiles Of existence. And what are Injuries?
Fifteen years ago vacuum cleaners and cleo
trio irons were Injuries in a,ock Island These
things have become necessities because the
housewife has been educated to know that she
Is not tho eternal bondmaid OF the ironing
board and the broom. Twenty five years ago
the carriage was a luxury Of the rich. Today
the workman motoring over the country roads
with his family Is a common sight The auto
mobile has opened up new experiences for the
average man. Is the auto, strictly speaking
luxury!
Tho advance Of civilization Is marked by
wider distribution and popularization of the
things that we call Injuries when they are en-
3oyed only BY favored few. What is needed
Is not less luxury. but q still wider distribu-
lion Of its benefits
