w. G.. T. U. women of America
are looking forward with great in
terest and praying for success at

I. The annual sermon will be

ncsota sister, who is national sup
erintendent of Sunday school work
will hold Il great Sunday school
rally. Miss Annie Gordon and
other noted workers will take part.
To one who has never attended /.
national convention this cannot be
explained. The children are
trained so that everything goes
like clock work and do their parts
so well that only those who have
seen and heard can realize the
beauty of the exercises. They
march through the aisles with ban
ners, singing as if they had a per-
feet knowledge of the sentiments
they sing and those who have
worked with children know how
they comprehend. | am a be-
lever in child piety and know we
older children can learn much
from the little ones who SO faith
fully proclaim the gospel in their
winning childish ways.
Children are also to have part
in another evenings program a
demonstration OF various depart
ments, L. I. L., anti-narcotics,
school-savings banks, mercy, kin
dergarten, Sunday school, scien-
1itic temperance instruction and
physical education.
One evening will be given to
the Us, the young women will be
cheered and encouraged by hear
ing Miss Clara Parish tell of her
four years work in India, Burmah,
China and Japan. Young ladies
dressed in the costume of
their countries will have part also,
Miss Stewart, Mrs. Binger and
others will take important parts.
The young women are never out
done by their older sisters and will
introduce several taking features,
a vested choir of forty or more
young ladies and other things of
interest to young and old.

est as she has proven herself, at
home and abroad, Il worthy sue
cessor OF Miss Willard who chose
her to fill her place.
The presidents of states having
Il net gain OF ve-hundred or more
new members will present an in
teresting program on State Bene-
fit night. We hope 'sOur Bessie
