The following communication to the

sent to the BAzoo for publication.
"The Womsn's Benevolent association
for the relief of the poor OF Sedaiia, is
grand and glorious work, one in which
every Christian should rejoice, for believe
the angels in heaven were made TO rejoice
in every enterprise whose object is the
amelioration as well as the elevation OF
suffering humanity, but, my dear sisters OF
the association. hope you do not think
the ladies Of East Sedalia are Indifferent
to the claims of suffering humanity IN
which we should all haye a deep and de-
cided interest. But, on the contrary, We IN
East sedalia are engaged 10 grand and
glorious enterprise, under the auspices OF
The railroad department Of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union. We have
very much to encourage us, IS the ofhcials
of the railroad have promised 10 build Us
a reading room next spring near McEn-
ros's saloon. Consequently We are trying
to enlist the sympathy and cooperation OF
every citizen in East Sedalia IN this grand
work of doing all in our power to elevate
mankind. To this end We would make this
enterprise decided SUCCESS.
When Miss Jennie Smith was here last
fall she organized a Woman's Christian
Temperance Union, aud two weeks since
we organized Band of Hope for the school
children, and both organisations are IN a
very promising condition. May Gods
blessing crown all our efforts to elevate and
