The w. G. T. U. Meeting.
The meeting of the w. c. t. L. held
Friday afternoon was especially inter
esting as the program consisted of
reading which showed the varied
things that count for temperance.
Clippings We're taken from the Union
Signal, American Issue and other late
papers, giving up-to-date facts. The
recent vote for statewide prohibition
in five states, elected thanks for the
victory of right over wrong, as did the
items showing that prohibition reduces
taxes, contrary to the fearful prophe-
cies Of the liquor forces. that an in
crease IN saving deposits is noticed in
all dry states and decrease in drink 4
ing and crime. The position taken by Il
the board of health against the use of II
alcohol and of the medical fraternity Il
III regard to alcohol as a medicine
| shows increased opposition to that
which inebriates, and the experiments i
| III athletic and military circles proving I
| that efficiency in craftsmanship are
/ impaired by the use Of alcohol, even In /
| moderate quantities, also the attitude +.
| Of industrial organizations against the 7
| employment of drinkers and of the 500
or more newspapers that refuse to adj /
vertise alcohol as beverages, all show
| that public sentiment has taken many |
| strides upward during the last few
years and temperance workers have
reason to take courage and labor on.
