upon us has touched our hearts and We
return our warmest and sincere st
thanks.
1T is sweet when the emergencies
rise to see men rally with that gal
lantry and chivalry for womanhood as
only men know how to do, and make
il impossible for any one in Chris
tan community to cast siurs on
woman. We know what the defense
of man in this city means of what
stands for the highest womanhood and
the sweetest memory of all is to know
that some heart has been made bright
er and some homes cleared OF dark
clouds that hung heavy over them.

power of your manhood. Rise In tne
