ture on temperance. The speaking was
under the auspices of the Womans Tenn
perance Union of Ensley, with the presi-
dent, Mrs. j. B. Simpson, and many of
the members present. DR.. PEBBLES, pastor
of the Christian church, presided and fit
tingly introduced the distinguished speak
er. Mrs. Armor was slightly hoarse, hay
ing been on an extended lecture tour, but
1t did not detract from the force and eff
fectiveness of her speech She spoke of
the progress the temperance cause was
making throughout the country and pre-
dicted the passage of the national prohibi-
ton bill by Congress. Reviewing a num-
ber of recent authorities on the effects of
alcohol on the human system she stated
1t was a proven scientific fact that it
was detrimental from every standpoint.
Mrs Armor was warmly congratulated at
the conclusion of her address.
