At any rate, your membership alone should be useful, in that it helps to focus the attention governments to public opinion. But there is plenty of work for to do here, which would yield framediate and tangible results. I refer to social and humanitarian work which this cosmopolitan rom- munity is eminently fitted to

Yes. these institutions are admirable in themselves, but their activities are restricted to particular spheres. whereas those of the Langue of Nations Societies are practically all-embracing. The local Society, when formed, could co-operate with these institutions In their work, thus in a way unifying and co-ordinating their divers #C- tivities. Bernard Show has ex- pressed the splaion that with its social work alone, the League would be able to justify its existence ten times over.

An English lady of literary eminence once tande the remark that she would not be sure if posterity would not put the greatest blame on the women of this generation for not having prevented the World War. I do not know whether they could have done it, but John Ruskin onge laid down this dictum: "When the women of the world really make up their minds to put period to war, they can do it." It is still not too late for our mothers and slutera to assert thoir will that war shall be no more, and I hope that they will assert that will with energy and unflinching deter- mination.
