Perhaps the reform in which we are most deeply interested just now is that Of temperance. If We are to make our nation saloonless by 1&20, it will need 1 the support of every man and woman. Of th nation to do it and to enforce It, and our part is to see that the na tion gets our full support off this meas ure. Dr. Bevah, head. of the American Medical association, has th fOll6wing to -say in regard to the use of alco holic drinks, and it is well for us to Stop and Consider vthis- article In the face of the taad our own atat med ical board has recently taken on this question: "There can be no doubt of the Inju rious effects of alcoholic drinks Ott both the physical and mental well-being of our population. There can be no doubt that the greatest single factor we can control in the interest or tne nnHiir. hpalth of the nation would be I the elimination of the alcoholic drink. I want to plead for the united action of the organized medical profession of the country to secure protection by law against the injury drink is doing to our people, not as a political measure, but as the most important health measure that could be secured. In this crisis, when we and our allies are fightihg not r.rti-& tnr fturfcglves. but alo for human- it.v &nc civilization, we must organize . .... . ,.r a the entire nation m tne most emciem way possible, and this cannot be done without eliminating drink." It is said that a Pennsylvania saloon keeper went south to visit his son in Camp Green. When asked how he lik ed the place, he replied: "Like it. I thank God that my boy is down here training. The eight of 30,000 young men, enjoying themselves without drinking a drop, has made me a pro hibitionist, rm going home, close out my business and get into some other line." L Dress reform is one in which every woman should take an active part, and it is only with the united strength of womanhood that this will come about Real women have been shamed iimiilllllllllllllllllillllHIIIllllHIIHIIIlllllllllW MnBiiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiM we ought to see that we lend Sur aid to our government ln every reform for the good of the people.

This should be a warning to the women of our land. If only 52 per cent, of our population is fit for war against Ger many, how many are fit to be the fath ers Of the coming generation' Sabbath reform is one in which -each of u& aa individuals needs to begin at once. It is not necessary to begin to preach or teach this. Precept is the best teacher and preacher. If our gov ,t .an nsk for a easless Sunday in order to save that much oil during the war, how about the command from God to Moses in regard to keeping the Sabbath?
