U., half a mil- iton strong, in the program of its 48tn j:annual convention opening here Thurs- “lday. Sesslons close a weex from to- day. ' While prohibition‘and its enforcement | ‘ come in fér first attention, the educa- tion of women voters, women in indus- try, Americanization, child welfare ana social morality will claim a far larger place than ever before. The National Women’s Temperance union ' has fol- lowed these lines for 35 years or so but it is now greatly extending them. Outstanding speakers include Major Roy A. Haynes, federal prohibition commissioner, and Miss Anna A. Gor- - don of Evanston, Ill., president of the National W. C, T. U. -~ Miss Gerdon, who has recently visit- . 'ed both South America and Europe, will “touch on world prohibition prospects. ' Through organization of the W. C. T. U. in some 40 different countries, the American membership is keenly iater- ‘ ested in temperance progress abroad. Major Haynes' invitation illustrates - the great concern the W. C. T. U. has in prohibition enforcement, officials say. Other speakers prominent in the or- ganization include Mrs. Ella A. Boo.e Liof Brooklyn, N Y., president of the New York and vice president of the National W. C. T. U.; Dr. Valeria H. Parker of Hartford, Conn., recently ap- " pointed executive secretary of the U. S.

FRANCE RECOVERING Nature Overconies the Worst of War’s Decds and Returns Vegetation to Scar-Torn Country. Soissons, France, Aug. 16.-—Nature is making such rapid progress in healing the scars of war in' France that, outside of towns where ruins are still standing, it will soon be impos- sible to discover the famous front line of four years of war without close éxamination. It has become evident that the abandoned project of maintaining in- tact, as it existed at the close .of hos- tilities, the line from Nieuport, in Belgium, to Belfort, as a leseon to future generations, could not have carried out excepting at an enormous expense. Forests that were supposed to have been annihilated have shown remark- able recovery. Positions that were upheaved repeatedly until the subsoil covered the surface almost complete- ly, giving every appearance of hope- less aridity, have been slowly covered by vegetation.
