The time as well as the place of our

of a presidential election and the week
Of the opening of the United States

intense interest. but in the words of
Miss Wizards convention call for 1896
1--WE shall meet not as a political party;
not as fiDaneiers, and yet as those pro-
foundly interested in finance; not as
statesmen, but we trust as stateswo-
men=-the women Of great nation,
baptized with a mighty earnestness,
endued with a clear vision that en-
ables us to see thar whatever else the
nation and individuals constituting
that nation may need, the primal note
is applied righteousness"

number Of states have made net gain
of $50 or more members during the

Gals. organizers and other workers has
never been surpassed and never have

been more closely knit together nor
more fully set to do good. They have
learned to magnify not the size of the
giants or the lions by the way, but the
greatness and the goodness of the
Father of us all
We speak universal observance of
the day of prayer, Friday, Nov. 30 to
the end that we may have a pillar of
cloud by day and pillar of fire by
night not only at the convention but
during the entire year.
