If we have not called attention to all

If we have not called attention to all
the "red- letter days. officially fixed
upon by the w. c. T. U. it is not from
inconsiderate intention. SThey will
grow gradually into our memories and
afford rallying points for special
'.arousements,'' and diversification of
effort in the local unions. For every
ingenious president knows that to keep
the local work alive and vigorous, she
must often set some new and defini tie
purpose before her coadjutors, some
result not too far off upon which they
can concentrate for "a pull together"
At the words w. c. L. U. last autumn,
the birthday of Lady Henry Somerset
august 81 was officially chosen as
'Fresh Air Mission Day." with the
thought that it was an appropriate
time, so far as weather signals go, and
because Lady Henry has done SO much
by means of outings for those who
would not otherwise have had breath
of country oxygen, to make the Fresh
Air Mission feature of applied Chris
tianity in her own land. September
%, Mrs. Mary Clement Leavitts birth
day, comes next, and should be appro
priately and gratefully observed by
our unions This is the beginning of
Self-Denial week, which ends with
Miss Wizards birthday, September
%. This latter date has been decided
upon as the one to be specially OBJ
served for securing new members, and
henceforward, September % will be
known as membership day in place Of
Crusade Day, December %. The
change has been made because Cru
SADIE Day is so near Christmas that it
is practically impossible to make a sys-
tematic canvass for members, every
ones time being otherwise employed.

Railroad Work.
MRS. E. o. BIGGs

Let an effort be made at once by ev-
cry local w. G. T. u. that has not done
anything in the department of railroad
work, to do something without delay
1t is most important branch of work
and those who engage in it find such a
ready response from the railroad man
ayers who are anxious that all men
employed by them should be sober and
industrious. Our work is in line with
their own ideas, consequently is not so
hard as petition work on our streets
where business men so often feel that
we are meddling with things we had
better leave alone when we ask that
they do not allow liquor houses to OPP
en- in our midst.
Any one wishing information and in
struction on the railroad department
work can get it by writing to Mrs. Ella
Biggs, McComb City, and if she don't
make you feel like working you won't
get such letter as l did last week. 1t
was simply inspiring.

The attitude of that good man, the
Christian voter, has been inaptly illus
trated by the experience of a colored
brother who was given to saying at the
church prayer-meeting, "Sambo waitin'
impatient for de Angel Gabriel to
come and take him to his heavenly
home"-but meanwhile his daily walk
and conversation did not altogether
correspond with these celestial claims.
For this reason several young fellows
of the baser sort, resolving to test the
old mans sincerity, sought his lonely
cabin by night and rapping on the
door called out with solemnity, "De
Angel Gabriel am come to carry Sam
DO to his heavenly home" No answer.
They pounded away again and repeat
ed their declaration in tones of impress
sive authority no answer; a third
time they called out, "De Angel Ga
briel am come to take Sambo to his
heavenly home," when behold, from
the most distant corner of the cabin
came a scared, mufiied voice: "Sambo
not here. Sambo gone away for six
months" Alas! that it is that Chris
tian voter who prayed against the dram
shop but when voting time came had
gone away into the peaceful fold of a
high license party, that discredits the
Christian church and leaves the ma
tion in the thralldom of the rum pow

And as opportunities come to me to
go around in homes and at public
places, find that | do not occupy a
solitary position. The tendency to alb
stain from liquors is growing more and
more among young men today. The
brightest young men | know, young
men who are filling positions of power
and promise, never touch drop of
beer, wines, or intoxicants of any sort;
and the young man who today makes
up his mind that he will be on the safe
side and adhere to strict abstinence
will find that he is not alone. He has
now the very best element in business
and social life in the largest cities of
our land with him.-Ed,rdrd w. Box.

From "a Canvassers Note Book.

One woman, the mother of very
bright family of children, subscribed
for the Midget. By some inadvertence
she did not learn it's temperance senti-
ment; at least / concluded so, from her
telling me in the talk which ensued

lieve in it all"-that "when she wanted
glass of beer or wine for any reason,
she should have it and the same with
her children" fright before them.
/ shuddered as l asked, of this
bright, intelligent mother, surrounded
by her quick cared, impressionable
children, ''if she had no fear that they
might form taste for liquor
NO." was the emphatic answer
"They are in no danger. Their father
has always had beer just when he lik-
ed, and he will never be drunkard, y
and she uttered this word with infinite
scorn.
POSSIBLY not" l replied, "but your
children may not have as strong a
d-back, upon their passions and ap-
petites as he," and I related some sad
instances / had known, as the result of
theories like hers.
| offered her some leaflets l had with
me on the effects of wine and beer,
but she most positively refused to take
them.
II aciH not read one word against
them" she said. "When the temper

l could not teach it, for didn't believe
it, and so he got another teacher for
that day. Il was glad of this honestly
| afterward met the husband of this
woman, and if am able to read char
acter, he was already under the subtle
power of the beer-habit and on the
swift route to drunkard's DOOM
Truly "wine is "a mocker," and this
dear woman deceived thereby was not
as wise" as she had thought.
But this was by no means the only
educated, american woman of the bet
ter class, that found utterly ignorant
of the scientific revelations concerning
beer, for l met scores of them; and l

The brewers and other friends of the
liquor traffic have raised the Cry that
if the prohibitory amendment should
be adopted, the farmers would not
know what to do with their corn and
barley now made into whisky and beer.
Mrs. Clippenger, of Iowa, in her "Facts
for Farmers" says: 81. The price of
grain would be greatly increased by
the prohibition of the drink traffic, as
the families of drinking men would
live in greater plenty. 2 The first class
to realize the benefits of prohibition
would be the farmers, as the products
of the farm include the necessaries of
life. g. The taxes which the farmer
now pays, caused by crime and pauper-
ism, the legitimate result of the drink
traffic, would be greatly decreased. 4.
The homes now in poverty and misery
would be supplied with food and cloth
ing from money spent for drink. 5.
The farmer would have conscious
ness that the grain produced would be
used to fulfill the original purpose to
bless, and not to curse mankind. 6.
AS the farmer will be the first to real
ize the benefits of prohibition, if he
looks at his own interest alone, he will
vote for the amendment. 7. If he con-
siders the welfare of the community in
which he lives, il he considers the well
fare of his State and country, if he
considers the sorrows and misery of
mothers, wives and children of drink
ing men, he will not only cast his own
vote for the prohibitory amendment,
but will see to it that all whom he can
influence will go and do likewise"

CRY for want of food. Where are all
our State officers reposing that we can
not get sound or pen-scratch from

Can it be that we are all slumbering
peacefully while the arch enemy of
our homes is ever watchful and ready
to devour us.
How can your paper exist and fur

to be discussed for the advancement

McComb, Miss, Aug. q, 1894.
DEAR MRS. LUcKIE = Monday night,
Aug. Goth, was the date of our last Cos
pei temperance meeting, held in the
Methodist church, and addressed by
Rev. Messenger, as the speaker of the
evening
The program arranged by Mrs. Fly
and Miss Albright, was a good one
throughout. Miss Lula Veal recited
in her usual excellent manner There
were other recitations and songs, and
the exercises closed with a rousing
three minute speech by Rev. M. L..
Burton, our old reliable.
We rejoice in the acquisition of Bro.
Messenger, the Episcopal minister,
who has but lately come among us.
He is sound on the Prohibition ques-
ton and Prohibition party principles.
The meeting was presided over with
grace and dignity, by Mrs. Losey. The
church was beautifully decorated with
our large w. G. II. U. letters (the gift
of Mrs. F. G. Losey), and profusion
of flowers and ivy.
The meeting may justly be pro-
nounced a success.
