All sorts Of journalists are abroad in the land
IN these troubious times, and many OF them
are enough to make angels weep: but the pref
test piece Of newspaper work which has come
10 light in a long while appeared in n New Or
lea~s paper the other day. 1t is described as a

so peculiarly appropriate, as will he seen from
the following extracts. The article Is an 40
count Of n children's temperance meeting. ana
IS less than "A column In length. Here arc some
sample passages:
Yesterday afternoon there was q notable
gathering of children at the First Baptist
Church. The church was almost filled with
them. They were nearly all little and nearly
all girls.
The little folks were very bright. and most
Of them were pretty, although some were not
as pretty as Others, which goes without say
ing, hut they were all bright and all Interested.
in what was before them. and that was an adj
iress by Miss Anna Gordon. the national Fresi.
dent or the LOYAL Temperance Legion. These
children were the members of the l.. T.. LIS
in this city, and they had come to hear the
pretty, address OF their pretty and sweet voiced
Mrs, Walter V, Crouch presided, and led IN
the singing uf the pretty song, Yield Not to

Then Mrs. PH7r'~ band OF little tots sang very
prettily and braye.y,, wen Never Touch the

made II very effective. Then Mrs. Crouch in
PRODUCED Miss Gordon. who Is n very charming
little woman, and understands just what to
SAY to the children and how to say II. Her talk
with the Ill Istratinus was remarkably inter-
eStinG, She said she was sorry that the light
WAS so that sh" could not sec the color OF the
childrrn'S eyes. She always wanted 10 SEQ
their eyes. but SIC could see their bright faces.
and thcre was no Iirture 50 beautiful. She
said II was Ia be u temperance meeting for the
little ones. and the grown-up ones must keep
very still.
Mis- Gordon told a pretty little story OF .

were had because they spoil homes, and on in
