THE first body of women ever organ ized for the purpose of promoting peace through preparedness is the women's section of the Navy League of America. The society is the largest body of women in America. It includes the greater number of women asso ciated with the General Federation of vv omens Clubs, women from churches of all denominations and women who have no other affiliations at all. Women of all nationalities are inter ested in the Navy League. Of this body of women Elizabeth Ellicott Poe is general -secretary and prime worker. She guides the work of the state secretaries all over the Na tion and suggests the methods to be employed in developing the work by city secretaries and their committees. The object of the league is to give support to any movement towards a greater and more efficient Navy. The league was founded in July 1915, with only Mrs. Poe and a few other inter ested workers. Twenty thousand pledges were printed and mailed to the influential women for the country to test the sentiment. The paper slips pledge the signers to talk and think patriotism and "sufficient National de fense to keep the horrors of war from America's shores forever." Practically the whole 20,000 pledges returned signed and more were imme diately sent out. In six months almost a millioni women allied themselves with the league and the number is still in creasing at a tremendous rate. The rolls include women from California and New York; bakers' wives and wives of day laborers. The league asks no dues of its mem-, bers but the women of each district are expected to demand support of de fense legislation of the Congressman of that district. Elizabeth Poe has planned a series of contests which have been and will be held in connection with the work of the league to arouse greater interest in it. The first was a prize of $100 for the best scenario which might be used in connection with the great Na tional pageant setting forth the ne cessity of preparedness. Another con test was the writing of a 250-word creed of National defense. A National defense day has been announced for December 6 of each yeaer to keep-alive the spirit of patri otism which the league plans to arouse through its present efforts. About 1000 presidents of women's clubs have been notified of the plans for these celebrations and suggestions have been made for the observance of the day. The date has been chosen because of the opening of Congress at that time. The first National Defense day was observed last year in Washington with rallies and addresses. A resolution was passed calling upon Congress to pro vide for National defense and assuring individual Congressmen support it he voted for the legislation. The day was observed outside of Washington by wholesale canvasses for Navy League members. The observance of tho day hereafter will likely be some what different. MOTHERS' DAY IS MAY 14 Portland Churches Plan to Hold Special Observance. Mothers day will be celebrated In all the Portland churches on May 14. In connection with the observance of the day. Dr. T. W, Lane, president of the Portlanad Ministerial Association has asked all the pastors to give the evening service over to the general topic, "Better Homes and Home Life The special attention of the clergy Is called by r. Lane to the home topic to give the churches an opportunity to co-operate with those who are in terested In the "thrift'' campaign.
