ANTHROPOLOGY 



ANTI-CIGARETTE LEAGUE 



and is always associated with the presence of 

 an extremely minute micro-organism in the 

 blood. Anthrax frequently extends over large 

 districts, affecting all classes of animals, both 

 wild and domestic. It is also called splenic 

 fever. In man, it appears as a carbuncle, a 

 malignant pustule, or as wool-sorter's disease. 

 Thorough disinfection should follow every case 

 of the disease. If the bodies of animals dy- 

 ing of anthrax are not burned, water and soil 

 are liable to be contaminated, the poison to 

 be carried by birds or flies, and the terrible 

 disease communicated to human beings. Ani- 

 mals may be rendered immune by proper 

 veterinary treatment. 



ANTHROPOLOGY, anthropol' o ji, literally, 

 is the science of man, the word being derived 

 from the Greek anthropos, meaning man, and 

 logos, meaning science. The term has been 

 given various meanings, as th6 study of man's 

 past has developed, but it now includes the 

 development of man as a race, his appearance 

 on the earth and his progress toward modern 

 culture; in other words, the distribution of 

 man over the earth and the results of the dis- 

 tribution. The departments of anthropology 

 are archaeology, ethnology and ethnography 

 (which see).

ANTI-CIGARETTE LEAGUE OF AMER- 

 ICA, an organization with branches in most 

 of the large cities of the United States, Can- 

 ada and the Panama Canal Zone. Its mem- 

 bership includes more than 500,000 boys ai>d 

 men who have pledged them- 

 selves to abstain from liquor 

 and tobacco in every form 

 "and to use their influence 

 to induce others to abstain." 

 The pledge may be made 

 binding for life, or only until 

 the age of twenty-one. 



This great organization, international in its 

 scope, is the outgrowth of a local league started 

 in Chicago in 1899 by Miss Lucy Page Gaston. 

 Miss Gaston's work among the boys of that 

 city attracted the attention of certain business 

 men who offered her financial assistance if 

 she would undertake similar work on a na- 

 tional scale. The league is supported by 

 membership fees of ten cen.ts each and by 

 voluntary contributions. The league's active 

 members are entitled to wear a button, which 

 is reproduced in the accompanying illustra- 

 tion. Girls and women are invited to join the 

 league as auxiliary members and to throw 

 the weight of their influence against cigarette 

 smoking and other vices. 

 The league publishes a monthly magazine,
