Responsive Reading for West Vir
gina Local Unions.
Prepared by Mrs. l. Ii. Dual, Su-
persntendent Of Legislation and
Petitions.

At our special request, Mrs. Du-
val has given US this week, Con
outside local page carefully pre-
pared Responsive Reading on a
subject in which we are especial
ly interested, and upon which we
need especial enlightenment; as
the work of the coming year will
demand knowledge of the infor-
nation it contains. Special copies
of the FREEMAN, containing this
Reading" are sent to each Union
in the State, and the President or
Secretary is requested to see that
the Reading IS given, and the pa
pers preserved by the Secretary for
future use.
A public meeting in conjunc-
ton with this Reading" might be
of great interest and profit to the
community.
Hoping this request will meet
with prompt attention, and that
broader intelligence in these mat
tiers may obtain,I am yours for Con-
stitutional Prohibition and Scien-
tific Instruction,

Our Coming Conventions.

This week will be taken up with
the Convention of the First Con-

Then comes the preparation for
our annual gathering at Wells

ton that We are to have here the
presence of our National leader,

Anna Gordon.

Study the Land Marks.

We are SO frequently asked ques-
tions relative to this or that duty,
which are so clearly set forth in the
documents which we have furnish
ed. that we are driven to the con-
clusion there is not enough study
ing of the landmarks. Every Union
that does not possess Pathfinder,
Methods of Work, Band of Hope
Manual, Evangelistic Manual, Ma
tional and State Minutes, the Union
Sioral and FREEMAN, is lacking the
necessary tools for good workman
ship, and will probably go on ask
ing these questions and falling be-
low the average of good Union.
If any of US have this informa-
ton in any degree, it came by the
process we recommend to you.
There is not the knowledge of
the Constitution there ought to be
among the Unions. For the bene-
ft of new organizations, we will
for awhile keep standing in the
FREEMAN, a list Of the indispensa-
BILE helps to a successful Union.
Send for these helps and see how
they will help.

The Freeman Free,

The State Executive Committee
decided at its last meeting to send
number of copies of the FREEMAN
free, to be distributed where most
needed in each Union, until after
the State Convention. So impor-
tant an auxiliary do we consider
the W. C. T. U. page (and what
page isn't w. G. T. u, any more p
to the pushing of cur work, that in
the present lean state Of our treas
ury this conclusion was arrived at
after consultation with practical
business men who kindly aided US
in our counsels.
The coming of the FREEMAN has
these objects in view:
To acquaint you Nth and there
by interest you in the work.
To familiarize you with its
methods.
To show you what other women
and other Unions are doing and
thereby suggest what you can and
ought to do.
To serve as a medium of COM
munication for off GERS and superin-
tendents, saving the vast labor . n c
expense of personal appeals, ane
enlisting your cooperation j N thu
various departments Of WORK..
Please read, ponder its ontents
reply to its requests, act upon it,
suggestions, report you r own pro
gress, and never destr oy single
copy, pass it to the p.ext in order
subscribe for it your self and urge
your sister to do tb Q same.

ED. FREEMAN:
Cameron W. G. T. U. held a
Social and Literary Entertainment
in the NJ. E. Church recently, that
was happy success both socially
and financially. The social part
consisted of ice cream and cake
and cream and peaches served by
the ladies in charge and passed
through the audience by walters.
The Literary Program consisted
of select readings, Rotations, sing
ing and dialogue.
Select Reading, Miss Dora Helms,
Mrs. DR.. Hickey, Mrs. A. II. Carr.
Base Solo, Chas. WOODBURY..
Recitation, Mertie Simonton.
The Dialogue entitled A Happy
New Years Day, found in the
Temperance Bonner, was highly
appreciated by all, The characters
were Misses May McCuskey,
BERTHE Fry and Bell Std
ger, Masters Chas. Hollingshead,
Arthur Chenoweth, John Danly
and Chas. Pariott, accompanied
with instrumental by Miss Della
WOODBURY., to which 20 small
children marched in, headed by the
walters in their caps and aprons
who served the cake, cream and
peaches. 1t was carried out in full
and was well rendered, much to
the credit OF the participants.

Great is Their Faith.

The men of Parker, Dakota,
evidently have faith IN the W. C.
T. U. In view of the approaching
spring election, about forty of the
leading citizens of that place sent
petition to the W. G. T. u, in
which they state that, having
silently witnessed the dire effects
of the legalized liquor traffic, till
they could no longer remain inact-
i've; and having implicit faith in
the purity of motive, and conf
dence in the judgment and integri-
tyof the ladies composing theU Union,
they respectfully beg them 10
designate the men who shall
compose the Prohibition ticket,
land not leave that important duty
and privilege in the hands of
designing and hypocritical politi
clans" The petition closed with
the assurance that if the ladies
would accept this trust, the
petitioners would do all in their
power to have the ticket elected.
In response, the ladies thanked
the gentlemen for the honor
conferred, and accepted the trust,
relying upon Divine Wisdom to
guide them in selecting suitable
candidates.-Uaion SiguaL.

To our Correspondents.

On returning from our late tour
among the Unions, great piles of
unanswered letters confronted US.
Have patience, good friends.
A page of w. G. 7. U. matter
and a Convention now stares US in
the face. Just as soon and fast
as one pair of hands can meet the
demands upon them you shall have
attention. Bear in mind, you are
neither forgotten nor neglected.

be formally opened until about the
LIST of April, at which time there
will be rouslng "house-warming'
and the rooms will be declared
open. -Ne,o Dominion,
LEcTURE.-The White Ribbon
Army was addressed Sunday after
noon in the M. E. Church, by Prof.
