The Woman's Christian Temper- ance Union held a program meeting Tuesday afternoon with Mrs. J. W. Turner. The meeting was opened with the usual devotional exercises. Neal Dow was the subject of the pro- gram. “Neal Dow, the Father of Prohibition,” was read by Mrs Morse. There was a great Sunday school rally in Maine a while ago. Eight thousand children looked into the face of a man who asked: “How many of you ever saw a drunken man?’ Only one child raised his hand. Why? Because sixty-two years ago Neal Dow gave prohibition to Maine. When you hear the cry, “Prohibition does not prohibit,” point to that one little hand and ask in what license State that scene can be duplicated. Every one is, or should be familiar with his encoun- ter with a saloonkeeper, with whom Dow plead to sell a friend no more lignor. The saloonkeeper told him sneeringly he would sell liquor to any one who had money to pay for it. “WIill you?" sald young Dow. “By the grace of God I will change all this.” Behold the result of his ef- forts. A State made and kept dry sixty-two years; in which 7,999 children out of 8,000 never saw a drunkard. Oh, for a Neal Dow in every State in the Union! “Honoring a Great Man, Father of a Great Movement,” by Mrs. Mec- Glashan. .

E. Ohlinger, was rcad by Mrs. Morse. Some good 1houghts were given in a paper by Mrs. Turner, “Some of the Evils of tie Hour.” Some extracts were passed and read by all present. Quotations from noted people on the Temper- ance question. “Easter Day in Courtsville,” was read by Mrs. Anderson. It empha- sized the fact that we should use in- dividual effort in our work. It has been decided to hold ome business and one program meeting each month. The mext, a business meeting, will be held April 15. MRS, H. B.
