In Novem ber of 1920 a delegation of men from each of the allied countries called a congress in Paris and formed an organization known oh Fidac, using the Initial letters ot tho French "Federation Interalliee des. Anciens. Combattants" ; which giving a liberal translation, means the federation of the veterans of the allied nations. In 1!25 a Fidac auixiliary was formed and as ev ery Auxiliary member automatical ly becomes a member of Fidac Auxiliary the organization Is now composed of four hundred seventy thousand women In all the allied nations. The main object of Fidac la world pence. -General opinion now admits that only thru education can this object he attained and that tho most lasting results come from home education. Think of tho effect of this great number of .women all teaching the same lesson whether It be In Kngtand, France, Jugoslavia of the Unl-ted States. A powerful Influence for peace. Mrs. Edward Loach has charge of this program and promises nn exceptionally Instructive nnd en tertaining meeting.
