amount raised was $656.OO. This
year the w. G.. T. u. numbers
$500 members, and raised over
$1,000. Ten years is not far to
look back on; it seems incrediable
that onlyst ten years ago most Of us

charity Of other states. Today we
have commodious, almostluxurious
farm homes, and there are more

cording to population, than in
any other state in the Union. That
much Of this prosperity is due to
the benefcient influence of the
prohibition law, and to the self
sacrificing philanthropy of the
Woman's Christian Temperance
union, none but the most ignorant
and prejudiced will deny. Later
hope to give a brief summary of
the varied and enormous amount of
philanthropic and educational
work done throughout the state by
the w. g. I. U. It did not add to
the complacency Of the Devils
Lake delegate to see the women of
wealth and culture throughout the
state deeply interested in this work,
while so few of the women Of her
own town have yet awakened toits
possibilities. Twenty-six hundred

The tenth annual convention Of
the Woman's Christian Temper
ance union was held in the M. E.
church, Grand Forks, September
% to Is. The church was beau
.tifully decorated, the chief feature
of which was the blending of
white, the w. @. T. U. color, with
the national colors. The many
county and local union banners
also added materially>to the decor
ations. Conspicuous among the
floral decorations was a set piece,
representing the adder in the wine
cup, inscribed "Touch Not, Taste
Not" The beautiful badges of
white satin with gold lettering were
presented by T. Porte & Co., of

One of the pleasing features of
the convention was the unfailing
courtesy and attention bestowed
upon every stranger in the city
wearing the white ribbon; another
was the interest manifested by the
citizens, many of whom attended
the business sessions, and who
came out to the evening sessions
one thousand strong. All social
functions we're abandoned during
the convention since the delegates
were too hard at work to indulge in

Perhaps the spirit of the Manchester
branch Of the Heywoods is shown in the
name OF one of its present leading repre-
sentatives, barrister and county court
judge, George Washington, son Of AID
Haywood.
SO 1t happens that, overlooking the
ground where Prince Charles troops aft
erward fought the Wings, stands grim
old Ol1ver-a central point to a busy pop
ulation of 100000 people-hard-heade
and Independent Lancashire folk, accus-
toned to go their own way without syco-
phancy to court or monarch-for, taking
nfteen-mile radius from the cathedral
church, one is in the heart of the most
thlckly populated districts of England
about 100000 people in Manchester and
SaHord proper and about $500 900 within
the forty-flve-mile circumference
It's curious fact, too, that there are
more good Roman Catholics to the square
nch In Lancashire than In almost the
rest OF England put together, and the
principal county families remain still in
the old faith.
