The Woman's Christian Temperance
union is known as organized mother
love, and while primarily, We are
seeking by education and legislation,
to bring about total abstinence from
intoxicants by the individual, and
prohibition of the liquor traffic by the
state and nation, yet all matters
which have to do with the welfare
of the home, city and state are Of
great interest to us. We have As de-
partments OF work. In every one of
these departments, the ballot will be
an added help and power. Every Ge-
tail of our home life, is largely gov.
erned by existing laws We shall use
the ballot, to secure better laws rela.
tive 10 the food we eat. the clothes
parks, clean streets, the public
schools. We shall use the ballot 10
help the millions OF working women,
and the little children who today are
toiling.
We shall probably do some civid
housekeeping Men have never en-
joyed housekeeping We shall use
the ballot TO abolish every form OF
evil and vice; 10 build up all that is
beautiful and good. Will We be able
TO accomplish all that We desire?
You remember the story Of the man
who was taken to the hospital. sick

Compare these men with those
broad-minded, just men, whose intel

question is such that they not only

all state or local institutions where

of none on the insane asylum boarIr,

Is there law against il? Or have

many others concerns women quite as
