The w. c. T. U. held its weekly meeting
at the NJ. E. church Thursday evening, JAM
uary 10Th. After the regular business the
entertainment was opened with song by
Mrs. Sissons and Miss Simmons, followed
by a pathetic recitation by Miss Vosburgh.
One of Pizen's young humorists then began
an interesting and amusing Serial, but ow-
ing to lack of time was informed by the
President that he might continue it at the
next meeting. A select reading was next
given by Miss Barrett. Following came the
debate on the subject, "Will Woman Suf-
frage Hasten Prohibition" Mrs. Sisson
opened the debate with spicy argument, in
which the startling information was impart-
ed that there are 5000, 900 illiterate voters
in the United States. Considering that there
are but about $4,000, 900 voters in the U. S.
the audie nee thought it to be drawing quite
heavily upon posterity. The negative,
however, confirmed the arguments, on the
strength Of which the judges rendered de-
cison in favor of the affirmative. After The
Contribution Box was opened and the con
tents disposed Of the meeting was adjourned
to the evening of the 23d.
