because as a matter of ordinary wis

to be required to carry certain por-

a curious law found upon the statute

a man to secure full indemnity-and

W,C,T.U. Notes

The Women,s Christian Temper
ance Union is the child Of the crusade
Of 1873, which was once the most
pathetic and sublime uprising of the
age--outraged womanhood, with no
other weapon than prayer, crusading
against an evil which was desolating
her home, breaking her heart, and yet
upheld by the laws of her country.
In Hillsboro,, Ohio, after a lecture
by DR.. Dio Lewis, Mrs. Judge Thomp-
son, after much struggle and prayer
and taking as her pillar of cloud and
of fire the 146th Psalm, led a little
band of women from the Church to
the saloons. They marched two by
two, singing the while "Give to the
winds thy fears" The movement
spread like wild fire through Ohio
and adjoining states. 1t seemed to
be latter day Pentecost or out pour.
ing of the Spirit on the women of the
West. The saloons were steadily be-
sieged and many a song and prayer
lifted its sweet cadence amidst the
blinking Of beer glasses and the fumes
of tobacco smoke, UNCONVENTIONAL
lines were swept away-.all hearts
seemed melted in this baptism of fire.
Thousands signed the pledge and
protested conversion. For time the
liquor traffic was suppressed in $50
towns and villages Ohio and neigh
boring States.
The women could not camp zen per-
manence" at the doors of the saloons.
But from the mountain top of their
experience theyhad caught a glimpse
Of the magnitude of the work--they
had seen to some extent how this evil
was entrenched in our government.
Now they saw the necessity Of
creating widespread sentiment
against the traffic, of evangelizing
and Of educating the voters of the
future up to the standard Of total alb.
stinence and prohibition. To do this
work the Woman's Christian Temper.
ance Union was called into being.
It's work was divided into preventa-
tive, educational, evangelietic, social
legal and organizing departments.
During 81 years, most of the time
under the leadership Of Frances T..
Willard, the organization has proved
it's right to exist and its power to
work.
The w. c. T. u! exists for the prr-
pose of educating the young, forming
better public sentiment, reforming
the drinking classes, Transforming by
the power Of Divine grace those who
are enslaved by alcohol, and securing
the abolition of the liquor traffic.
The lines of work are: I. Organi-
zation. 2. Preventive. 3. Educa-
tional. 4, Evangelistic s. Social.
6. Legal.
Under these six chief heads are
grouped various departments, each IN.
