Report Of Last Meeting of Local W..
c, T. u.

c. I. u.
The last meeting OF the local union
OF the Woman's Christian Temperance
union was held with Mrs. c. P. Kel
logg. The beautiful weather was ia
,orable TO good attendance and W,
were pleased to see so many ladies
present.
The opening exercises were conduct
ed by the president, Mrs. Colby. Thu
secretary explained the 'every mem
Der" subscription price of 20 cents t.
Home Guards and it is hoped tina
every member of the union will taxi
advantage of this special rate. W.
learn therefrom the activities of tn,
society throughout the state. More
subscriptions to the Union sigma
would be of great benefit to us all. A
large portion of the time was giver
TO the most excellent reports of The
delegates sent to the county conven
ton recently held in Barre. We arr
rather proud to note that so many
of the Offices are held by our OWL
members.
Some of the thoughts brought home
from that convention were that We
ought to make friends of the editors
so they will be willing to print the
truth concerning the activities of the
w. c. T. U. and give space for items OF
interest to this work. One spoke OF
the growth of the society as evidenced
in the change of the motto from For
God and Home and Native Land" TO
this: For God and Home and Every
Land"
A prominent feature of our work is
Americanization and three large CEN
ters are maintained for teaching for
eigners how to become true Americans.
The Importance of securing officers
who will enforce the eighteenth amend
ment was mentioned because the world
is looking to this country to see wheth-
er similar laws would be worth while
for themselves. Scientific temperance
instruction in schools was a great fac
tor in bringing about the eighteenth
amendment and it is important to
continue that instruction in these days.
This instruction was introduced into
the schools of Massachusetts, first and
by a woman. The w. c. 7. II. sup
ports the only woman who is allowed
to go on board immigrant ships before
they land. She is able to speak eight
languages and gives much valuable
help and instruction to people coming
to this country for the first time. She
is able to send unprotected girls to
safe places, and inasmuch as $1,000
girls are ''lost" every year in this
country, that is no small service.
The International Temperance con-
gress is another good thing the w.
c. r. U. has brought about, to which
delegates from many countries come.
The one from China made a stirring
appeal that America should not allow
brewers to go TO China and establish
their business because China has only
Just rid itself of the opium business
and that long hard fight will have
been for nothing if Americans bring
the drink habit to the Chinese.

Patterson's Swim
 Across Sound Big
 Feat, Emmons Says


 The recent feat of Walter Patter- son in swimming across Long Island Sound is nearly equal to swimming across the English channel, says J. H. Emmons of Lordship. According to MT. Emmons some of the accounts of Patterson's feat did not do full jus tice to Patterson, the latter covering the distance of 19 miles in hours and 52 minutes. Patterson started from the Old Field Lighthouse at S:42 a. m. and reached Lordshtp at 6:37 in the presence of 500 persons.
 Patterson was not exhausted, claims MT. Enmons, who claims his achievement is remarkable because he was forced to battle against a strong current, his course being very nearly straight across the Sound. Patterson also swan through tons of jellyf1sh. On his arrical at Lordship Patterson walked unassisted to his home, distance of half mile. He was in excellent condition and was one of the throng of merry dancers at the Isordship pavilion a few hours later

Irish Pagan, known as Jerseys toughest welt erweight, is another fighter who is seeking these parts for ring work. In a letter Pagan states that he saw Patsy Bogash being out pointed by Joe Senter, a Newark boy whom he (FaganC stopped with one punch, and is so anxious to meet Bogash that he would fight him for nothing if he should lose.
 Pagan created one of the biggest when he handed a licking to Sailor Johnny Darcey who fattened Red Allen here recently. Among other good boys that Pagan has boxed are Johnny Donnelley, twice; Joe Senter, Charley Small Joe Ritchie, Phil Del mont and Willie Gardner
 Fagan's representative in Bridge port is Joe Vetrano, whose address is GA Carroll avenue

 The Bridgeport fight fans want to see BogaSh meet some fighter who will give and take and not be dubbed by the Bogash camp any more. They saw Louie try to defeat boxer by the name of Sailor Bartfield who had a broken arm hanging by his side. He didj not even shake the Soldier with his punches.
 ''I have a young man by the name of Jack Delaney under my direction, and to show the public of Connecticut what we will do in order to get Bo- gash to box Delaney in the ring, I will go BogaSh and his camp better than they asked for by letting Della ney take Is per cent of the 50 per cent Connie Lewis offered If that don't appeal to the BtSash camp De- fancy will agree to stop Loui before IS rounds ere ended.
