Robb of Glas- gow Is Speaker Mrs, W. H, Robb, speaking at fhe Lyceum Women's Art Assocl- sition yesterday afternoon on Art Impressions, mainly with regard ty architecture of the Old World crethedral, sald that she chose her guhject because in the old land mm the old world generally abound the grandest {illustrations which have thrilled the universe, Taking her listeners on an im- agiuary tour of the world, Mrs. Roby drew their attention, first, to the Madeline Church of Paris, w'th its beautiful mural and cefl- ing pivintings and the artistry of the gorgeous celling carvings with #ts combination of Greek and Gothic architecture. The Cathedral at Brussels, she de- seribed in fascinating detail and connectyd with the description of the story of how the priceless masterpleces that adorned the walls of these ancient churches were saved during the Great War, "The Holy Mother and Child," one of the finest and most cher- ished of Michael Angelo's works carried out; in tne purest Floren- tine marble in the Cathedral at Brussels, was saved from ° the Germans dering the war, by the cunning bug always art Joving community of Belgians, by build- ing a wall of stones around fit during a borabardment, The workinen were sworn to undying secrapy. By a simple de- rclition of this wall after the war, the Michael Angelo group stood revealed to art lovers and rightful owners in all its pristine beauty. St. Paul's Cathedral, London, wherein {s kept .the mavelous pieture of Holman Hunt's "Light of the World," was included in Mrs, Robb's address, To describe the National War Shrine of Scot- land, Mrs. Robb referred her au- dience to the words of H. V, Mor- ton--"a living laurel wreath to the memory of Scotland's dead, by Sir William Lormler," Members of the Art Assocla- tion found Mrs, Robb's address of such great interest that they felt carrie away to the scenes she described in the Olt World, An- other feature of yesterday's meet- ing of the Lyceum Women's Art Association was the reading of two essays prepared by the As- soclation Archives, Mrs. R, 8 McLaughlin and Mrs. PF, L, EVERY WOMAN faces this question "How do I look to other le?"

The former of these was on the late Robert McLaughlin, who "as an amateur painter in oils and water-colors showed much ability and though it was a pastime, during the later years of his life he devoted much at- tention to painting and music, of wkich he was very fond." Mrs. McLaughlin's essay on the life and career of the late Robert Me- Laughlin brought in many inter- esting details of his early con- nection with what has come to be the General Motors of Canada. Mrs. F, L, Fowke who prepar- ed an essay on the late Edward Carswell stated that he was an artist of more than local fame, and apart from some very fine pastels and oil paintings retain- ed by members of his family, painted a panorama of 'Ten Nights in a Bar-room," banners for Temperance and Orange Lodges, also shadow pictures and rebuses, which had a great vogue in the United States.

EARNEST PLEA FOR CHILDREN Rt. Hon. Arthur Henderson Voices Opinions on War Geneva ~Rt. Hon. Arthur Hen- derson, president of the World Dis- armament Conference, addressed an eloquent appeal to the assembled delegates in behalf of the children of the world who, he said, are al- ways the victims of war, Note of Hopefulness President Henderson's address marked the closing of general dis- cussions at the conference, It held a note of hopefulness, Many mil. lions of children were sacrificed be- hind the lines in the World War, he said, to tuberculosis, rickets and other diseases which ruthlessly des- troyed a rising generation. "War will inevitably always outs rage and destroy the children," he declared, quoting John Galsworthy, noted British novelist and play- wright. The debate just ended, Mr, Hen- derson said, revealed both the form- idable nature of the task before the conference and a common desire to achieve success which gave rise to some degree of confiderice. The speeches by delegates, he said, disclosed a great variety of plans favored by the various governments but he regarded this as quite nat- ural in view of the varied political and geographical conditions of the participating countries, Magnitude of Work "The telegraphic reports from the Far East," he said, "show' us the nagnitude of the work before us 'ul the terrible consequences of the war we are seeking to prevent, "The debate has shown no funda- mental objections to the draft con- vention however, disliked it may be by some, The principle: of limita- tion or armaments and international supervision has been definitely ac- cepted. The principal of the neces- sities for restricting the more pow- erful offensive weapons is virtually agreed that the community of na- tions must take steps to solve the armaments problem." Mr. Henderson referred to the French proposals for an internation- as one of the 'most important and most difficult problems the confer- By Thornton W.

"Don't let them just yet," re~- torted Mrs. Monkey-tace, "There are sjill two youngsters to be fed | end nothing to give them, We have just time if we hurry to get something before broad day- light, 1 guess you are molt more tired than I am, but we can't lot the children gd hungry.

She led the way out of the rable window and with a sigh Monkey-face followed, His wings ence must solve, "It would indeed be a pathetic situation," he said, "if after the nations have outlawed war by the Kellogg Pact, the conference should settle down merely to deter- mine rules for conducting war, Task Is Large "The task of the conference, now that general debate has ended looms very large. The whole problem of security has been set out very closes ly as a corollary to disarmament and we owe much to the French and other delegations for making this problem clear. Our work is begun mn excellent spirit but the task be- fore us is long and tedious requir- ing great patience and we shall en- counter great difficulties, both tech- nical and political."

THIRD TROOP IS GIVEN CHARTER A Model Scout Meeting Last evening the Third Osha- wa Scout Troop held a very suc- cessful display of Scouting in the Auditorium of Simeoe £1, United Church Sunday School The display was in the form of a model Scout Meeting, opening with Flag Break and "God Save the King." A lively relay game under AS M.I°, Black started the work, fol. lowed by two violin solos by Mas- ter Edward Bartlett, Then fol- Jowed another game, and immedi- ately after A.S.M.B. Edmondson assisted by some of the boys, gave a demonstration of the Scout Ten- derfoot Knots, with the Troop Leader giving a short display. A Scout tug-of-war followed the knot-tying, and Mr, George Flem- ing rendered a Gusty Bass solo, calleq the "Bandolero." Under HM, Fisher's guldance, there fol lowed a first-aid demonstration, which made a very effective dis- play. The high spot of the even- Ing was reached when Mr, Jisher called on D.S.M, Riggs to address the audience. Mr. Riggs rave a short summary of Scouting in Oshawa, and in turn called upon Col. Chapell, president of the lo- cal Association, to present the Third Oshawa Troop with their official Charter, Col, Chapell ex- presced his pleasure at being able to be present, and hoped to take an even more active part in 39-inch | {mportant, authenic | Fashion | 1 Ti y 3 Magazine, to show you the way | 'o be proud of him Thir style 1s designed in sizes 16, | Line, 3 ) .

WETS ARE AHEAD IN STRAW VOTE Poll Taken by Literary Digest Shows Distinct Gain by "Drys" The vote for continuance of the Eighteenth Amendment Reg- isters a gain of from 15.85 per cent to 19.28 per cent. of the total vote in the second week's returns of The Literary Digest twenty million ballott nation wide poll, as announced in to- morrow's issue of the magazine. An additional tabulation of over 460,000 votes is reported, making a total of 703,985 recelv- ed for the current tally, Of this tabulation, 149,626 votes, or 19.28 per cent, favor continu- unce of the Prohibition Amend- ment and 625,806, or 80.72 per cent, favor repeal, Nine States, the initial returns of' which are tabulated in this socond published report of the voll include: Connecticut, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island," Vermont and West Vir- ginia. Additional returns are also re- ported from Georgia, Illinois, In- diana, Mawyland, New York, North, North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia, All the States so far reported show a majority sentiment in fa- vor of repeal. North Carolina leads as the dryest State reported with a per- centage of 42.21 for continuance, a slight increase over the pre- vious week's returns, The wettest State in the cur- 1ent returns is New York, from which 87.02 per cent. of the bal- lots counted are for repeal, which ia a slight decrease in its wet sen- tment over the prior returns. West Virginia and Indiana are second and third in dryness with percentages for continuances of Prohibition of 85.95 and 35.42 respectively, Second and third in wetness of the States now reported are New Jersey and Connécticut, where the vote to date shows 85.57 and and Orient full fashioned Carab and Jaro.

The Literary Digest again cau- tions those who would deduce the national trend from these early figures to await further returns belore moking any conclusions as Kansas and a number of other reputedly dry States have not been heard from yet. Attention ig called also to the fact that hundreds of thousands more ballots are anticipated from the geventeen States reported this week, Speeial Prohibition polls for clergymen, doctors and bankers and lawyers will be conducted at an early date. in addition to the main poll, The Literary Digest announces, "The second report is not quite ns wet as the first one of the voll," The Literary Digest states editorially. "We advised the drys last week not to be down-cast, and already our advice is justified by the event, ; "To be sure, the wets are still away in the lead with their new tctal of 625,806 ballots for re- peal of the Prohibition Amend- ment as against 149,526 for fits continuance, "But if you figure out the per- centages and compare them with these of last week, you will find that the faithful drys have forged ahead from 15.85 per cent. to something like 19.28 per cent. "It is not surprising to find Now York just a shade less wet and North Carolina just a shade more dry. "Of the States not recorded in last week's issue, the biggest is Pennsylvania, which bounces in- to the line-up with 43,831 votes for continuance of the Eighteenth Amendment and 147,139 for its repeal, "But again we must warn our readers that the time is not yet ripe for accurate conclusions to he drawn from 'the poll figures. "Wait until unterrified Kansas liorns into the tally with her ramel-corps legions. "It is anybody's game yet." In answer to a multitude of requests which it ig related the magazine has received asking for information as to how twenty million ballots are dispatched, The Literary Digest states: "To whom do we send our twenty million or more ballots? "We'll tell the great secret, "To Americans of both sexes and all occupations, in every city, town, village and rural section in the United States, '""To Republicans and Demo- crats, I'rohibitionists, manufacturers, marhants, business women, bank- ers, farmers, hosewives, men and women doctors, preachers and teachers. "To railroad men, truck drivers and all others, men and women of all ranks and occupations and beliefs, To the man who brings the milk, to the woman who comes for the wash, To the man of the cross-roads filling station and the woman of the Main Street beauty parlor. . "Our elaborate machinery of distribution works, automatical- ly and makes no distinctions, "The result is as so many ob- servers have remarked, a verit. able slice of American life. And a very big slice, too, It has been estimated that, roughly speaking, a Digest ballot finds its way to two out of every three American families, "And every State receives a quota, proportioned pretty accur- ately to its voting strength.
