Memorial Day at New Cumber'
land.
The w. C, T. q. Take Part.

Our Pan Handle friends had a
grand good time on Memorial Day
at New Cumberland; a grand time
in attendance and splendid address,
es, and a good time for stirring
and mellowing the hearts of the
people.
1t is estimated that 5000 people
were present.
Hon. Jno. A. Campbell was orator
of the day, Gen. I. Fl. Duval mas
ter of ceremonies, J. II. Atkinson
read Lincoln's Gettysburg grafton,
and Prof. F. H. Crago Of Wheeling
delivered the Memorial Address.
The w. G. T. U. PARTICIPATES.
This from the Intelligencer's re-
port, shows the part taken by the
w. T. u:
While dinner was in progress the
people of the town and visitors,
who had gathered at the W. G. T.
U. lunch stand or elsewhere, gath
cred at the stand on Court House
square.
The Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union and Young Mems Tenn
perance League joined issues and
erected a tent where hot coffee,
sandwiches, ice-cream, lemonade
and cake were served. No intoxl-
cants are to be got in the town and
not drunken man was seen all
day by the Intelligencer represen-
tative.
The w. G. T. U. seems to be very
much in earnest in its work. An
address was prepared by the So
ciety, signed by Mrs. asper Porter,
President, and circulated among
those present, deploring the "ten-
dency to pervert Memorial Day in
to time of hilarity, recreation
and profit, as the tendencies of
the time indicate;" and asking
the soldiers aid to make it a
National Sabbath.

All friends attending our State

going, over the Clarksburg, Weston

returned over same road, free, on
presentation of certificate of at
tendance at Convention. This is
certainly most generous.

We found Gov. st. John not only
an orator, but pleasant travelling
companion. So full of the Prohibi-
ton work was he, that he entered as
heartily into the local interests of
West Va, as if it had been his
native State.
So cordially and courteously did
he respond to the greetings of
both curious and admiring passen-
gers that discovered his identity !;
it seemed difficult to realize that
the whitening, blistering sarcasm
with which he arraigned the old
political parties on the night be-
fore, could exist in this genial
gentleman OF to-day.

Open to All.

Bear in mind the reduced rate OF
fare is not to w. G. T. U. members
only.
To entitle friends of the cause to
the reduction, it is not necessary
to be delegate, nor even a mem
Der or honorary member of the w.
G. T. U.
So please remember that any
friend who will attend our State
Convention at Wellsbnrg, June
1924, can have the 2-cent a
mile rate on the B. & O. and O. r.
Railroads, by sending to THE FREE
MAN, Parkersburg, for certificates
on which to secure tickets at the
reduced rates. See notice else
