A lecture on the above subject
was delivered in the NJ. E. church on

lecturer pointed out that the world
wide organization she represented
stands second to none as an educa-
tive force making for civic righteous
ness, which may rightly be called
political sanctification. In proof OF
this claim she reviewed the noble
work of the Women's Christian Tenn
perance Union in lucid and forceful
presentation of its 40 departments Of
work, ranged under the six groups of
CD Evangelistic, (2) Preventive,
(3) Educative, a. Evangelistic, (5)
Social and (6) Legal
Mrs. Addition dwelt upon the monu-
mental work of Mary Hunt in sue
cessfully introducing Scientific Tenn
perance Instruction into the public
schools of every state in the Union,
and proved to the complete satisfsc
tion of her attentive and appreciativt
au dience that along ever department
