w. c. T. U. NOTES.

Ever since Miss Willard left this earth her
comrades have held memorial meetings on or
near the date of her heavenly birthday, Febru-
ary 18th. The program has not necessarily
been all about Miss Willard, but if possible a
public meeting, with an interesting temper
ance program. Out of the collection, $500 is
sent to the National W. C. 7. U. for the Will
lard Memorial Fund. From this fund aid is
given to territories or States in special need,
by way of free literature or speakers It is
the home missionary fund of the W. C. T. u
Last year % States were helped from the &c.
600 thus collected. But the fund ought to be
double that amount. Miss Willard was greatly
interested in Names campaign of "a, when
Prohibition was placed in the Constitution, and
would be equally anxious now that the Dirigo
State keep her banner flying, and not furl it at
the behest of liquor men and liquor money.
Mrs. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward, who SO
recently entered within the gates" was a
member of the Newton, Mass, W. C. T. U. In
her "creed," given in "Chapters from Life"
Mrs. Ward says: II believe that the miseries
consequent on the manufacture and sale of in
toxicating liquors are great as to imperious-
ly command the attention of dedicated lives"
She was sometimes accosted on the street by
men who respectfully said. II hear when you
talk to folks they stop drinking. wish you
would talk to me-"
Miss Anna A. Gordon offers prize of $500
to the Maine boy or girl sixteen years old or
younger who will make the most words from
letters in the word 'prohibition.'' and will
also send her the best composition on the
question, "Why should the saloon stay out of
Maine?" Belfast boys and girls-the young
people all over the county-should have try
at this. Consult with Mrs. Belle Fletcher,
Union street, Belfast.
