WAR TIME PROHIBITION.

(To THE EDITOR OF TEE " SPECTATOR.") Conference of Women was 'held on May 14th to consider the advisability of a demonstration in favour of the above. It was well attended by representatives of many of the London organized women's societies, and there was a unanimous opinion that a demonstration should be arranged. An adjourned Confer- ence will be held at Caxton Hall on Monday, 27th, at 6 o'clock, and I venture to believe you will allow me to extend an invitation to the women readers of your journal to attend that meeting, when the form of the demonstration will be decided upon.— Thanking you in anticipation for your very valuable help, I am,

Sir, &c., (Miss) J. L. FOSTER-NEWTON, Chairman (pro tem.).
