A Deluded Woman.

A Mrs. Isabelle Rice, who claims
to be an evangelist from New
York, is holding street meetings
in the cities of North Carolina, in
the interests of the anti-prohibi-
tionists. Among other testimoni-
ais to her efficiency and character.
Mrs. Rice claims to have the in
dorsement the Union SigudI. Need
less to say, no such Endorsement
has ever been given within the
memory of the oldest member of
the Union Signal staff and Mrs.
Rice was never heard of by any
official at w. G. T. U. Headquar-
tiers until she appeared in the
South as the champion of the Ii
quor interest. According to news
paper reports, her efforts seem to
have the opposite effect from that
intended and desired, as many
turned away in disgust at the
sight OF a woman taking the stump
against temperance. Several who
had intended to vote ''wet" went
away declaring that they will now
vote "dry."
1t is a we'll established fact that,
no matter how low a man may
sink in the moral scale, he never
loses his ideal for woman. And
the woman who throws her influ-
ence on the wrong side of a moral
question invariably forfeits the es-
TEEN of those whose interests she
seeks to promote. Happily, there
are but few woman who can be in
duced to publicly espouse a cause
that stands for the degradation of
womanhood, ven though the ma
terial compensation offered is
great. And these few are objects
of disgust and commiseration on
the part of a friend and foe alike

Progress Through Education.

In an editorial upon the prohi-
bition of the sale of opium in the
Philippines, which went into eff
feet March /, and upon the ef-
feet of the Chinese anti opium
edicts of a year ago, the hide
pendent says:
"China's most intelligent people
are trying to do there against
opium what we are trying to do
here against alcohol. The differ
ence is that here it is a popular re-
volt which is driving out the sa-
looms, while in China it is the eff
fort of the throne which is closing
the dens."
The difference seems to be that
in America the people are SOW
crit gn, and are, also, likely to be
enlightened upon any question of
national welfare nearly as soon as
their representatives, the heads of
government. But whether the
throne must compel obedience to
the law by the unwilling people,
or whether the people must COM
pei the enactment of law by an I'M
willing Congress, the complete en-
forcement of the law in either case
will come when all the people have
been educated to see its wisdom.
Every statement of the problem
in such clear terms as those of the
Independent paragraph quoted
above is a distinct gain. And
more and more the magazines,
moulders of public thought, are
coming to present such unmis-
taxable statements. EUerybody's for
May contains an article on ''The
Real Self and Drugs" by a noted
physician, which makes the rnin
of soul and body by the use of al
cohol and other drugs seem more
hideous than ever. The World To-
Day is publishing a series of strik-
ing cartoons on "Uncle Sam and
His New Conscience" which por-
tray the nationwide struggle with
the saloon and it's allies. The
daily press, too, no longer, rele-
gates prohibition news to infini-
tesimal space on a back page. 1t
stares at one from first page head
lines. So, though astounding
falsehood and distorted truth on
the alcohol question are given
much prominence, their publica-
ton being frantically promoted
by the endangered ~"interests,"
we may take courage from the as
surance that the education of the
people to the real significance of
the anti-alcohol movement is GO
ing forward rapidly.-Union Signal.

Christian Ende.vor Forerunner.

Rev. Richard Richard tells in the
Christian Endeavor Times of England
about a boys religious society formed
in 1866 in school kept By Rev. John
Ryland, the Baptist clergyman who
baptized William Carey. After re
vival in this school few of the boys
met together regularly for prayer in
the summer house." and when they
reached the number of half dozen
they framed and signed the following
rules for their society:
First-To meet at $50 in the evening
on Monday and Wednesday,
Second.-Every member shall pray In
his turn.
Third.-To take in none till they have
been first talked with and examined
Fourth.-Such as behave not according
to these rules and according to the rules
Of Christ or whose conduct shall be dis
graceful to their profession shall be ex-
cluded after the second admonition.
Eifth.-No member shall say anything
about this society to the other boys.
Sixth.-None shall be absent without a
good reason.
It win be noticed that in many
points this is similar to the Christian
Endeavor plan, though rule No. is
certainly quite the opposite of Chris
tan Endeavor ideas. With this old
time pledge as a text Mr.. Richard
makes an earnest plea for the organ
ixation of Christian Endeavor socie-
ties in schools and colleges, plea
which we heartily second.
