To my mind the World League Con-
vention Against Alcoholism held at To-
ronto, Canada, November 1920, was the,
greatest thing ever held in the way Of
convention in America.
I am ready to confess it was far be-
yond my hopes or fondest expectations.
When think Of over eleven hundred,
delegates and representatives Of sixty
five countries of the world who registered
during that convention 1 am convinced,
that there was never anything like it and
that a death-dealing body-blow was de-
livered "Old John Barleycorn" that will
cause him to take the count.

the slogan of the foreign delegates and
keeping the United States dry we will
dry up the world by 1880. R ssa

great Convention, is with the help of Al
mighty God and united effort it can

this Convention was the fine spirit of
unity in heart and purpose which it
evoked. 1t was beautiful to see repre-

Gently were at war with one another

At this Convention one gained the

the next half century as far as the liq-

Prohibition, made secure and thor

make the world dry is to get the facts
about alcoholism and the truth about

that has already produced such marvel
Gus results. this was surely the greatest
temperance meeting that was ever held.
1t was greater than that first, indeed,
for that was local in its outlook, and
hesitant in its keynote and its atmos-
phere was victory. The other wondered
if Prohibition could ever be achieved;
this one only wondered when, or, should
rather say, how soon. 1t was really, in
my opinion, the most wonderful and sug-
gestiye meeting ever held on this con-
tinent; for it was held under the ban
ners Of practically every nation in all the
earth.
J Talk about League OF Nations!
This was league of nations. Sixty-fve
different countries were represented; and
when we looked at all those flags and
saw the confident faces of all those dele
gates, met together for one common pur-
pose, in "a Federation Of the World, :, it
seemed as ii surely the day OF the Lord
was at hand
Certainly it was a day of good Will to
men and America occupied her rightful
place in this league OF nations. She was
marching in the van. Along with all
these others, she has taken mandate
for all the men and women and little
children that the tyrant Alcohol has OPP
pressed; and, whatever happens to other
mandates, here is one that will bring re-
suits, for America leads. And Canada
marches beside her. And all the other
nations are falling into line. And the
lion shall lie down with the lamb. And
this time the lamb won't be inside. For
this day is the day of deliverance of our
God; and He will give the victory.
