THE WOMENS CHRISTIAN AsSO
GA ATOM

To the Editor Of the National Republican:
SIR: Your article in yesterdays issue, signed
"Dissenter," awakened curiosity enough in me to
inquire into the matter referred to, and the
following have been communicated to me as the
facts:
In the spring number Of ladies, Of good inten-
lions, projected the enterprise Of supplying the
treasures OF various benevolent societies by
soliciting the contributions from certain theatri-
cal troops, concert performers and others. Lydia
Thompson, with her company, volunteered to give
q performance in behalf of the object. Tickets
to b Is sny possible
be sold.
The Women's Christian Association refused to
take the tickets. believe there was but one per-
formsnce or entertainment viz, that OF the theat-
rical troupe above mentioned. The enterprise did
not succeed as its friends had hoped. S:fl, quite
| q sum was realized, and of this $50 sent to the
Women's Christian Association, which was re-
spectfully returned.
I confess to great perplexity of mind in deter
mining what other course the association could
pursue. / cannot see how the association could
enter into the encouragement OF theatrical and
ballet performances as q part of its Christian
tion could encourage the sale and use Of liquor for
the sake Of raising money to carry forward their
work Of reformation. A "Dissenter" can see all
these things, and much more. To him or her the
ballet may be necessary to complete the educa-
ton Of his or her daughters.
congratulate the Women's Christian AssocIa-
ton upon this adherence to principle: that they
value their consistency more than hundred and
nifty dollars, If their treasury is nearly empty;
that the action met the approval of every mem Der
of the board Of directors with but one or two ex-
ceptions. Their action meets the approval of
those whom the love of money has not blinded
and whose moral senEe is not blunted. This ap-
prevail Is not confined to the puritanical or the
members Of Christian churches. There are mul
titudes not in churches whose adherence to prin-
ciple should shame many whose profession is their
religion.
Let the Women's Christian Association continue
as they have begun. Let their position be under
stood. Let them pursue their work, unostenta-
tiously. quietly and steadily, and the "Dissen-
tiers, {" in their number or cut Of it. will be few.
CONSISTENCY.
