\." W. C. T. U l ! The Cleveland Park Union held an evening meeting at the Cleveland Park Oongregational Church Friday, Febru- ary 24, The «rm«mrnt. Mrs. William Peters. | presided. : T. B. Javvis opened the meeting with | rayer and all joined in singing “Amer- r(x led by Mrs. George L. Farnham with her violin, with Miss Narcross at Mrs. Farnham played two ) Old Refrain,” by Kreisler, and “Lullaby,” by Brahms. Mrs. Frank Shore sang “Morning,” and for an encore, “I Passed By Your Win« dow.” She was accompanied by Mrs. Charles E. H-ure, Mrs. Peters introduced the District president, Mrs. N. M. Pollock, who re- #ponded. complimenting the union for its enthusiasm and good work and giv- fug en account of is crganization and | srowth. | Rev. George L. Farnham, pastor of ' the church. was introduced, also the | speaker of the evening, William Knowles | Cooper. He gave his audience a very good idea of the attitude of several Eu- | Topean countries on the problem of in- toxicating drink. England, he said. still | spends $1.000,000.000 on_ drink, just as | she did before the war: but $1.000,000.- | 000 will now buy only one-fourth as much as in pre-war days. The per cent ; of alcohol used is also less, thus reducing considerably the amount of alcohol con- sumed, though the sum spent annually remains the same. France makes no apparent effort to reduce the use of in- toxicants. The Frenchman, however, | does not get drunk himself, but leaves that for the visiting Americans., Ger- many still uses a surprising amount per capita, but the nation-wide “youth movements,” all of which lay emphasis on building up a nation that should be ically strong, are doing wonders to ring about a more temperate use of alcohol. Sweden continues to have a fair amount of success with its system | of government sale of liquor. and Fin- land, the driest country in the world, is willingly sacrificing commerce in | order to stay dry. Having almost no | national resources. Finland must con- tinually fight poverty. which In turn | brings “strength of character. ! The District treasurer, Mrs. George | A. Ross, was called upon for a few words of greeting. A social hour followed, with refresh- i ments served.
