four unions that had gained in men,
berShip.
Mrs. Beulah s. Oxton of Rockland
reported for the Knox county un-
ions and said that three new men,
bers have been added in the whole

that the big gain in Rockland was
due to the convention which was
held there last year
Mrs. Myra d. Mckechnie reported
for Penobscot county and she said
that Orono has gained ten members,
Dexter Is and a considerable gain in
Bangor.
PiscataquiS county was reported
by Mrs. Alice NJ. Bigelow and she
said that the county had done bet
ter work than was expected. She
said great deal of the increase was
due to the fine work which was done
by Miss Nickerson. A new union
has been formed with ten members
and one honorary member. Thirty
fivej members have been gained in
the county.
From Somerset county the report
was made by Mrs. Martha Boynton
of ST. Adams. Sixteen new men,
bers have been gained. After Miss
Nickerson's visit IL new members

enterprising also in securing other
new members.
Reports were received from York
county and a member present said

been gained with six local unions
gaining and one union doubling in
membership.
Jubilee Fund
The Jubilee fund was most inter-
estingly and fully reported upon by
Mrs. Beulah S. Oxton Of Rockland.
She said in brief that when the drive
was started that Maine was almost
wiped off the map by the severe
storms. which occurred in February.
In spite of the weather and the delay
in the mails she received in the mail
UP to March 90 fully $1,000 towards
the drive. Now 1866 is lacking of the
S14.400 fund which il Names quota.
In feeling sentiment Mrs. Oxton spoke
of the work which Miss Gordon is do
ing in foreign lands and how no doubt
Miss Gordon is looking for word from
old Maine that she has reached her

amount needed. If every member in
the State would give 20 cents apiece
that would wipe off the debt
Mrs. Oxton's name was placed on
the gold and white book OF remem-
brance at the meeting of Tuesday aft
ernoon when the unions completed
raising the amount for the event A
fund was also well started along its
way in placing on the book of re-
membrance the name of Miss Marga-
ret L. Sargent of Portland.
Some very good suggestions were
offered in the work of securing names
for the book. One of the workers
suggested that in many cases the
family of a departed W. C. T. L. work
err who is not connected with the
union will, upon being approached,
gladly give in memory of their dear
departed

National w. c, T. U. lecturer was
asked to give a few words on the
congress recently held In Washing
ton. She spoke of the various mes
sages which were brought from every
country in the world with the excep-
ton of Germany and Austria. Many
of the messages were translated into
English and although what they had
to say was not as clearly said as pos
sible that they did very well. She
said she understood that all the mes
sages were to be printed very soon in
book form.
She brought from one Of the work
ers a message that sentiment should
be backed by interest. For instance
| when man charged with selling H.
quor is in court, many times the
court room is filled with his friends
and there will perhaps be no one
there as friends Of the other side.
The speaker urged that temperance
workers attend the court and demon
strate to the court in this mannSy

are working for temperance. The

Mrs. Lawrence sounded the warming
that efforts might be made to repeal
it. Congress can not lose any OF it,

exercise their power and send to Con-
gress men who will favor the Vol
stead act. In closing she said. show

Rev. A. Francis WaIeh
The message Of welcome from the
churches of Augusta was most splen-
| didly, offered by Rev. A. Francis
I Walch, pastor of the Winthrop street
| Universalist church. He said that II
was indeed a pleasant duty to stand
there for the few moments and repre-
sent the churches of Augusta. The
churches of the city are beautiful and
he has cleaned from his four years
stay here that the people Of the city
are like their churches.
Rev. Walch said that laws can be
made but that they are not laws IN
til they are enforced and that 1t was
the duty of the people to stand be-
hind the laws and see that they were
enforced.
Miss Mabel Conner
Miss Mabel Common, president Of the
Maine League Of Women Voters gave
| welcome to the White Ribboners from
the league. She said that the Union
is to be congratulated upon the work
they have done. Their work has been
hard and many times discouraging
Here little, there little, line on

have built up public opinion that has

prehensively reported upon by Mrs,
Juliette Fl. Cakes OF Livermore Falls

early stated that the phase of the
work was yearly growing mort .mror-
tant.
Mrs. Cakes stated that the U. s.
navy has just abolished alcoholics
from their medicine chests. At a re-
cent national meeting it was brought
out that 1914 of the drug addicts OF
the country were boys and girls APP
proximately IS years of age who had
formed the love of it through sooth-
ing syrups. They liked it and then
they induced others TO try it. Mrs
Cakes named some books which were
enlightening upon the subject.
The sale Of tobacco has increas ed
greatly in the last year, the sale OF
cigarettes nearly doubled Perhaps
the economic side of the question may
appeal more 20 the genera! public

billion dollars was expended for to-
bacco in the country last year and

welcomes which were afforded the

the welcomes made them feel at

from home to play a game they say
that they could play better If they
were at home, SO making the dele
gates feel at home they feel that
they can do better work. She said
that in each of the towns where the
unions were located some one was
waiting to hear what had gone on at
the convention and that the dele
gates would so home taking with
them inspiration and help. The
