Club Women Plan
HugeAntiwar Move
? 600 600 GENERAL FEDERATION
MEMBERS ASKED TO TAKE
PART IN EASTER DEMON
STRATION.

AS a testimonial Of their belief in
the necessity for doing away with war,
2,500,000 clubwOmen, members OF the
General Federation of Women's Clubs
in every state of the Union, are asked
to make Easter Sunday day OF
special demonstration, in letter sent
out today by Mrs. 7. G. Winter, pres
ident of the general federation.
The idea of an Easter Sunday par
ade in which thousands of women
many of whom marched in Red Cross
and Library Loan parades-was work
ed out by Cleveland clubwomen, who
suggested that the general federation
take up the plan.
Because the general federation has
gone on record for the world court,
the Cleveland clubwomen suggested
that women all over the country stage
demonstration at 3 p. M on Easter
Sunday.
II am submitting the plan to you
with real urge that you try to bring
about the demonstration in your own
community and state" Mrs. Winter
wrote. "Surely no day could be more
fitting to an outburst of feeling on be-
half of life than the day that cele-
Drates its Immortality.
II should like to urge one thing in
connection with such a procession
that you do not make it simply an
anti-war demonstration, but make it
a call for the concrete things that tend
to stop war-the world court; the
development of international under
standing and justice; conferences be
tween nations in matters that are out
side of legal jurisdiction, but touch
upon policies; the fight against the
traffic in narcotics.
"The General Federation of Wo
mems clubs is not a pacifist group.
1t furthers not mere emotionalisn
against war, but it does further the
practical measures by which the caus,
es of war and therefore war itself
may be wiped out gradually"

Do You Drink
Bootleg Liquor!

If SO, perhaps you won't risk II
again after reading what the chief
chemist of the United States Internal
Revenue Bureau has to say on the sub
ject.
He and his associate experts are
not in the least interested in the NOR
Ii is their business merely to analyZe
samples of seized liquors.
Nearly all of the latter are found
to contain dangerous poisons. Many
contain wood alcohol, which kills o,
blinds people.
The chief chemist. DR.. Under, says
that ordinary wood alcohol is SO dis
agreeable to the taste and smell that
hardly anybody would want to drink
it. But purified wood alcohol, suit
ably colored and favored, cannot be
distinguished from real whisky by one
person in a thousand.
The moral is that anybody who ven
lures to drink illict liquor is taking a
most frightful risk. There is no sucn
thing as reliable bootleeger. He
gets his stuff where and how he can,
and he himself usually cannot know
whether or not 1t is poisonous.
DIR. William V. Under, chemlst-in-
chief of the Internal Revenue, says:
''If people knew the danger they
incur when they drink liquor
bought from bootleggers, compar-
atively few would take the risk.
Many persons imagine that they
can tell good whisky or gin by
the flavor and smell, but they are
woefully mistaken.
"Of all the thirty thousand
samples of seized liquors ex-
amined in my laboratory, not more
than l per cent-say three hum
dred out of the lot-have been
found to be genuine aged stuff,
corresponding in quality to what
could be bought before the war.
1 give you that figure just as food
for thought"

This is not an argument against
lettering things in the community
through the building of roads, alleys

it is to make the public understand
that if it wishes the best in the way

must be willing to pay for them il
the same way that it pays for mod
ern conveniences in the home.
"Take the February magazines
which came out last fall and try te

"Ford was always good to his moth

Coolidge wrote nice letter to 6

Sometimes if you listened close

Who Saved
the Farmers?

For several years various estimable
gentlemen have been pursuing the
profitable vocation of Saving" the
Northwestern farmer. They have
given him tons Of advice; they have
elaborated numerous schemes of pro-
cedure; they have incidentally had
themselves elected to office; they have
collected millions of dollars in men,
bership dues and subscriptions to. this
and that; they have formed great or
CARNATIONS, political and otherwise,
all guaranteed to "save the farmer;"
they have denounced capital" and
"Wall Street" and "big business" and
bankers generally.
And yet
When it became necessary to stabl-
lize credit in the Northwest they had
to turn to capital" they had to ap-
peal to the despised banker, they hal
to confess themselves impotent.
And these men and forces that had
been so bitterly denounced as enemies
of the farmer, as robbers and hooters
of his substance, subscribed ten mil
lion dollars in one day to put credit
on a sound basis in the Northwest!
This great fund was subscribed be-
cause there should be at least one
sound bank in every community where
a citizen may safely deposit his money,
because sound credit is the foundation
stone of prosperity, because the right
way to save the farmer is to build up
a good economic structure, because
the Northwest is essentially all right
and is on the straight road to normal
and healthy conditions.
The agitators and professional far
mer-savers may have elected them
selves to Congress and to other of
fees; they may have made good liv-
ing out of the farmers troubles; but
they were powerless to do the one
needful thing-restore sound credit.
That had to be done by capital" by
the bankers and business men.-Min-
ncapolis Journal.

An examination of the platform Of

reveal any startling innovations.
On the contrary, most Of the leg

either been tried and found failures,
or they are good old commonplaces
with which everyone is agreed.
For example the delegates assem-

ton of state resources. Who doesn't :?
But conservation cannot be dismissed
with gesture. 1t calls for ,neac-

are fires and insect pests. You can,
