WORLDS WOMAN'S CHRIS
TIAN TEMPERANCE UNION.

Friends ofthe temperance Cuusc
EUery,rhere:
An outline OF plans for the proposed
exhibit OF the Worlds Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union Department
Of Juvenile Worn at the Columbian
Exposition has already been pub
lished.
Mrs. Josephine Il. Nichols, Of In
dianapolis, Ind, ho will have charge
of the w. G. T. U. Booth, kindly
agrees to aid Us in securing the needed
space, and count on your sympathy
and help in carrying cut what wo
hope will greatly build up our depart
mont and exert an influence for good
at tho Exposition.
While we hope for many contribu
tionS from foreign countries, we must
naturally depend largely ON the United
States for successful exhibit, aud in
these days, when the avenues for USE
tulness are constantly increasing,
when head, heart and hands are more
than busy, We can not begin our work
for the Fair day too soon.
Therefore, may urge those who
have the children's department in
charge, everywhere, to commence the
practical carrying out OF our plans at
once, and in tho following manner:
CHILDREN's AUTOGRAPHS.
Procure cardboard of good stiff
quality that will not easily bend or
break, and cut it into cards 3x2 inches
IN size, on which secure the auto
graphs of all your temperance boys
and girls, one name on each card.
These cards fastened together will
festoon the headquarters of our de-
partment. If cardboard of different
colors can be found, use an equal
number each OF rcd, white and blue
cards in every Juvenile Society Of
America, and In tho same manner let
each country use its own National
colors, employing white altogether if
no otheI can be obtained. 10 insure
uniformity in size and colors, send, if
possible, to thu Woman's temperance
Publishing Association, who will sell
the cards for these autographs at the
following rates: l0c per package of
30, assorted colors. 25c for three
i packages Of assorted Colors, by mail.
In ordering address W. L. P. A., 1G1
La Sale ST., Chicago.
In addition TO those who are NOM
bers IT our societies, any boys and
girls who have signed the triple pledge
OF the Loyal Temperance Legion IN
the Sunday-schoul or the home can
be represented in our Total Abstinence
Chain and in the contributions to the
fountain or to the Fair. When all
possible names have been secured
please send mo the cards, and they
will make one of the most sig lifcant
decorations in the Exposition.
