Twentieth Anniversary of the Crusade
Program for Temperance Camp Fire
THE CALL.

Twenty years have passed since upon
the women of the Crusade fell the Di-
vine fire. As of old the beacon lights
of Christianity flashed from Jerusalem
to Antioch, and thence to Ephesus,
Troas and Corinth, until they were
kindled in the palace at Rome, so this
heaven born enthusiasm. which start
ed in a few hearts and localities, has
flashed from heart to heart, city to
city, State to State, and nation to ma
ton.
1t is fitting, therefore, that upon this
Goth Anniversary we pause to rekindle
our altar fires; draw near to God for
fresh amounting of the Spirit; review
the past, confess our failures and mis-
takes, and consecrate ourselves for the
future. By request of the General Of
ficers of the Worlds and National Wo
mans Christian Temperance Union,
and as the Evangelistic Superintendent
of these organizations, l hereby call up
on the White Ribbon Army of the world
to observe Saturday, December 23d,
1898, as the Anniversary of the Crusade.
