ion, and linger lovingly upon the DEEDS or
those grand men. who have written their
names high up In the Temple OF Fame,
and rendered imperishable the glory of
| this country and OF Virginia.
When we bring back, by memory's
magic touch, the days OF "Auld Lang
Syne," and following time, In its rapid
fight, come to the living present, we
see the men OF our day successful in va
rious stations OF life, we rejoice in their
success and glory in their fame. AS to

some bright particular planet, and to
observe the grand development OF the

IL Is a thing Of joy TO trace the develop
ment Of some bright particular man in
his career onward and upward-as a boy
as youth, and as man; In peace and
In war; within the walls OF his Alma
Mater; in his home; in business life; in
congressional halls; every step one Of
manliness. every stage marked by hon
esty and integrity, devotion to principle
and love OF country.
So, when we look upon one of our fell
lows who has lived TO merit and receive
the proud appellation OF man. In It's
highest sense, we instinctively advert to
those words OF the poet:
IAN honest man
Is the noblest work OF God"
When, "in the beginning God created
tho heavens and the earth. he said: let
Us make man IN our image. after our
likeness" and some men seem TO us to
be fashioned In that image and to bear
that likeness! Virginia's history is the

past, whatever be our country's need.
whatever the emergency. whatever the
hour, Virginia can name the man, and
he appears as, indeed. one OF Natures
noblemen, grand and true.
CALLS FOR HER SON.
So our glorious Old Dominion again
calls for her son. who has proven ever
faithful. ever true. and she says:
Thou art Daniel,
In thee Is light and understanding
And excellent wisdom"
Thus we name the man, John War

Not on the score OF friendship alone,
Not alone as the lame lion Of I4ynchburg,
Nor yet alone as a distinguished vir-

reverential love for the old Common

a splendid arena, where the highest aspi-

THE HOME PROTECTIVE UNION.

THE HOME PROTECTIVE UNION.
The meeting of the Home Protective
Union was held at the home of Mrs
Walter Clarke on Barn Hill on Thursday
evening, December 8, at which the fol-
lowing officers for the year ensuing
were elected:
President, d. G. Wells.
Vice, Mrs Edward johnson.
Recrrdr g secretary, d. C. Wells.
Executive committee, Mrs William
S. Clarke, Mrs Charles NICE ven Boards
lee, Mrs William Arthur Curtis, Miss
Florence Clarke, Miss Emily Twist, Miss
Helen Dinon. Mrs George Burr.
Chaplain, Mrs Oliver S. Blackman.
The Home Protective Union: Precept
"As ye would that others should do
unto you, do We, even so unto them"
The purpose of this union Ia that no
corjugal life alliance be contracted with
any one who in any form is addicted to
the use OF Intoxicating liquors and
through the medium Of instruction and
amu'ement to expand the moral, social,
and intellectual welfare of our fellow
creature. Temperance reform through
nature, law of life. The most potent
element in human nature as a means to
the suppression of the worst human
vice.
Motto: clips that touch rum shall
never touch mine" This union is a
combined effort in organization of all in
the interests of the general welfare as
against the influence of rum.
The union would establish in each
town in the state and In the United
States, an Association In the interest of
temperance reform, with constitution,
by-laws, rules and regulations, as cir
cumstances require.
The means to the end: The influence,
as power to woman. This union in it's
purpose, properly sustained by women,
would bring to her the contamination
Of life's ideal, and the world its de-
liverence from the thralldown of Rum,
and the curse of home. Let there be no
union with rum. The principles of the
union are high, deep, and broad, as the
fear of human existance and require
only the moral courage" of woman to
assist them.
Make the standard and motto of the
union, the basis of life conjugal con-
tract, and we find the long sought So
luton of this enigmatic temperance
problem. Woman holds the scepter.
Let her WELD 1t. Let each and every
one fortify themselves, within and upon
the platform of our mothers in general
combination, exacting no pledge, firmly
maintain your positions relative to the
mot of your life, clips that touch
rum, shall never touch mine," and abide
results. To kindly, favorable study of
our principles, and method, we give open
welcome.
