To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL The
speaking campaign by the ladies' of the W. c..

and hoped that in every town the committees
of the no-license league will render efficient
aid in arranging for those meetings and in
getting out as large an attendance as possible.
Our movement is non-sectarian and non -politi-
