A BOW OF WHITE RIBBON.

We are of use and we get lots
of abuse, we White Ribboners;
while we mean good and hope
we do some good, we are severe
| ly ridiculed, but that's nothing
to grumble about, for everything
is ridiculed more or less, es-
pecially where women are con-
cerned. I do wonder if the world
will always look upon woman as
being silly, capricious, weak
and narrow minded. If it does
it will continue to be mistaken,
for we are just as great and
worth fully as much in our way,
(Which is as good as theirs) as
the men.
I have heard people say they
would not sign our pledge and
wear our ribbon because they
fail to see the need of it. They
say that being church member
covers all the grounds that the
pledge covers very well. They
are honest in their opinion and
so are we. l think that neither
would be right if we quarrel oyer
it. Its my opinion that every en-
lightened christian is entitled to
his own belief about goodness
and religion, and it's not right or
fair for a christian of one demon
ination OF sex to say to a chris
tian of another denomination or
sex, ssI am right and you are
wrong" for we all live according
| to our belief and we are all right
as far as we love and serve
Christ.
I have heard some other peo-
pie say that they would not sign
our pledge or wear our ribbon
because it looks so weak and
silly, that they can drink the
amount Of whiskey they want
and not do any harm. that their
natural manhood will keep them
from going too far. Not very
well, at least, I don't think SO.
It's not near so silly or weak to
sign our pledge as it is to drink
whiskey and get drunk for we
are all weak and liable to sir,
we were created that way, and
besides, the crave for drink is
sometimes inherited from father
to son like a disease. Our SIM
pie pledge might save hoy with
such an inheritance for wreck
ing other lives and filing a
drunkard's grave, for there are
lots of people, who have a high
sense Of honor and wont break
their word even if they are not
christians.
I was away from home, once,
in a land Of strangers, when all
at once I ran upon an old gentle
man whom I had heard much
about but hardly knew person
ally. I had heard much about
him in the first place. because he
is a kinsman and secondly, be-
cause he is a man Of prominence
in his neighborhood. I was
glad to see him, for I really like
him, and besides l was some
what homesick and twas pleas
ant to see some one from the
home region. We we're ex-
changing some pleasant common
places when I saw upon the left
side of his coat a bow Of white
ribbon. My heart over-fowed
with gladness, I looked long at
the; ribbon. He is a brave confed-
crate soldier, a man of position
and honor, a gentleman OF true
sense, worth and christian,
was not ashamed, nor too good,
to wear a bow of white ribbon.
