In the earlier part Of the session

experienced for many months, when
the prime minister, fresh from his re-

the gauntlet to his opponents and de-
clared that a vote on the hitherto
innocuous Genoa resolution was tanta

One OF the most delightful expert
srces of the delegates attending the Con-
vention of the World League Against
Alcoholism was the reception given them
bv the Lieutenant Governor.
Government House is some distance
from Massey Hall, and the guests, num-
bering several hundred, were conveyed
thither in automobiles. On their arrival
they were cordially received by Lieu
tenant Governor Cockshott and Mrs.
Cockshott, Dr. Fraser being in attend
ance. The various rooms, beautifully
decorated with flowers for the occasion,
were thrown open TO the visitors, who
enjoyed to the full the radiant wood
fires in the CRATES and the oil-paintings
on the walls, the latter including SER
les of portraits of the successive ieuten-

added to the obligations of their guests
by providing dainty tea for them,

SPEAKING ONE WORLD LANGUAGE
A With One Accord in One Place"
for Civic Righteousness and Decency; Convention
Phlanthropic in Character
By ]. H. Larimore

. "And when the day of Penteoost was
. fully come, they were all with one ae-
cord in one place. This is the opening
sentence Of great account OF a marvel.
Gus gathering held nineteen hundred
years ago in the interest of world bet
+. terment. The account goes on to say
. that the people who were nearby were
amazed because they heard these folks
who met at that convention speaking in
their own particular tongues.
. Representatives OF Go countries of the
earth were gathered together with one
accord in the city of Toronto the other
day. They were gathered as worthy
people spoken of in Acts, for human bet-
.terment. The people Of the Bible times
were all of one language hut the story
says they received the gift of tongues
with which they were enabled to speak
In all the languages OF the earth. At
Toronto, the people we're of many di'
verse tongues, but they all learned be-
fore the meeting was over TO speak the
ono language of world Prohibition for
the sake Of humanity.
II is difficult to find the exact words
Of description that fit the convention of
the World League Against Alcoholism
1t was not the largest world meeting
ever held, although it was a sufficiently
large gathering. 1t was, however, per-
haps the most representative world
gathering ever held. Shall one say 1t
was the greatest world gathering ever
heldg That might be subject for dis
eussion according to the measure which
different observers would give as to the
value OF the gathering.
1t was unique gathering in some
ways. First OF all, there was no indi-
vidual or no nation present looking for
personal or national gain, as usually
happens when the worlds politicians

/ hatred when Mr.. Guastav Cauyin of
France, rushed up and embraced DIR. r.
Strecker OF Darmstadt. Germany.
Another thing that was apparent
throughout the convention was the fact
that the people of the other nations re-
gard Prohibition in the United States
and part OF Canada as an accomplished
fact which has brought about such great
benefits that the rest of the world wants
it too
In the program there was recognition
of all the steps by which Prohibition
has been brought about in the United
States and by which it must ultimately
be brought about in the entire world.
Moral suasion, the teaching of scientific
temperance, the use OF Legislation and
the bringing of pressure to bear Oh pub
lie officials to enforce the law, were all
subjects of discussion.
The variety in the program called for
participation by the dreamer, the law
yer, the physician and the statesman.
Woman's great part in bringing about
the present progress in Prohibition and
their responsibility to help to carry on
the program of World Prohibition to
the conclusion, were given well deserved
recognition. The part which the col
lege men and the young men generally
must play was emphasized.
The keynote address by DR.. Ernest Fl.
Cherrington, general secretary OF the
World League Against Alcoholism, was
spoken of many times as great paper,
as indeed it was. He showed how in
ternational policies are evolved from the
experience Of some particular nation;
how Prohibition has been accomplished
through Christianity; how America is
the world laboratory of Prohibition; how
industry demands that Prohibition must
be kept; how self-determination for
small nations must be maintained, and

get together. Everybody who was there
was there for service and for human
bctterment. 1t was not scientific con
vention, it was not a religious meeting,
It was philanthropic gathering. 1t
was all this and a great deal more.
One Of the most remarkable things
about the convention was the spirit OF
friendliness and brotherly love, which
characterizes the former national enc
mics OF each other. As an illustration
OF this witness the bridging of war
The American issue., 1922-12-15

how finally the time to strike for world
Prohibition is here. DIR. Cherrngton's
lead was followed by all the speakers
who succeeded him ON the program.
The banquet of the gathering Satur-
day evening of the Convention was more
than the ordinary getting together OF
the usual bromidical toasts. 1t was
clearinghouse of reports from three
score of nations of their attitude on
this great question and their willing
ness to work with all the other nations.

In Sport History of Year 1922
Ski Stands Out as King of Goats
BY NORMAN u. BROWN

While Battling Ski, primitive
Senegalese, cannot be ranked as
one of the foremost stars of 1922,
his meteoric rise and fallin the sport
world made him probably the big
gest sensation of the year--albeit
no credit to the game.
Skis spectacular victory over
Georges Carpenter, idol Of Europe
and Frances biggest sport hero,
was but an incident in his career.
The winning of the heavyweight
championship Of Europe was but
Ia minor part. His fight ability
played but a small part in his rise
and fall.
1t was a few sentences, uttered
in a moment of anger when the
true Sikh asserted itself, that he
shook the sport Of boxing to its
very roots and threatened the eX-
istence of the game in Europe.
Sikh simply said that his battle
with Carpenter was scheduled to
be a frame-up. That he was TO lie
down to Carpenter in the fourth

oh, man!
Sikh, a native of Senegal, with
the build of a gorilla, the speed Of
q panther, the simple but crafty
mind of a native of the 1ungles
and the love Of jungleman for
the bright lights and colored beads
had drawn attention in Paris the
early part of 1929 by his wild es-
capades and his numerous chal-
ienges to Carpenter for a battle.
No one took him seriously-except
enterprising promoters A match
with Carpenter was built up"
Critics generally called Sikh a
dainty setup for Carpenter, de-
signed only to return to Carpen-
tier some of the prestige he had
lost.
Then, in just one second, sikh
became the most talked of fighter
of the year, IL not OF the present
generation. Yards of copy" was
cabled to all parts OF the world

the gayer parts OF Paris by storm.
Wild women fell on his neck and
fawned on him. He basked in the
limelight and bought rare wines in
gallons.
The world was his-in his mind.
But his carrylngs-on, mingled
with brawls with ring officials and
other respectable folk, soon turn

began to ignore him. Legal meas
