I'arertt-Teoher Council. The election
will tJiko place at 4 o'clock so that the
teachers who are members may attend.
Cue of the questions on which, the
Elizabeth Klllcott Poe General Secre
tary of the NavT League.
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. "Bet
ter Homes and Home Life" is the sub
ject assigned to the churches.
