The "occasionaP' correspondent of
the MONITOR appreciates it's new make
up and improvements as well as much
of it's selected matter. We are pleas
ed with the w. @. T. U. column and
ask the temperance leaders to keep
the editor in "copy" so there shall be
no lack of good and interesting mate
rial. If men fail to do their duty in
the execution of the temperance laws,
the women must not slacken their eff
forts to do great things in the line of
moral suasion and home influence.
