W. C. T. U. PARLOR MEETING. Held with Trinity Methodist Mission- ary Society—World Work of W. C. T. U There were 40 members present at the W. C. T. U. parlor meeting held in Trinity’ Methodist Episcopal church parlors on Thursday afternoon at 3.30 o'clock. The Trinity M. B, mission- ary society conducted the opening part of the programme, after which the meeting was turned over to Mrs. S. Howard Mead of the W. C. T. U., who thanked the ladies of the church_for the welcome accorded the visitors. Mrs, Mead said that there are now 18 W. C. T. U. missionaries in different parts of the earth and eight of these 18 have made the complete trip around sev- eral times. Mrs. Mead quoted a W. C. T. U. missionary in India, who is credited with saying “Where vou can get one concert, British and Ameri- can rum makes 1,000 drunkards.” This is what makes missionary work so hard in that country, Mrs. Mead spoke of work done by the W. C. T. U. in Japan and New Zealand, An interesting paper on Why We Wear the White Ribbon was read and some of the whys given were as fol- lows: As members of the W. C. T. U. wé love and wear the white ribbon bow. It is the beautiful badge of our organization, heaven born to promote | a holy cause. It is a privilege of which we are proud, It is a pledge of total abstifence. It is an emblem of patriotism. The Power of the White Ribbon was the subject of another paper read by Mrs, Thomas A. Perkins. Mrs. Per- Kins told the story of a young man on the downward path turned from the evid road by the sight of the little white ribbon. However busy with home cares or church work, every wo- man can at least wear this silent mes- senger, that speaks to all classes. It speaks of total abstinence and of self denial. A poem, Who Will Share, was then read by Mrs. Jacob Starkweather and was followed by another paper, What a Christian Can Do, by Mrs. Arthur Wyman. Some of the things set forth in this paper that a Christian can do ave as follows: The Christian can re- fuse to sign any man’s petftion for cense. He can refuse' to rent prop- erty to be used for the manufacture or sale of liquors.. He can cease ar- guing that the beer drinking habit aids sobriety by reducing the consumption of distilled liquors. A solo Close to Thee, was sung by Mrs. Willlam Crowe, Jr;; who was ac- companied by Miss Elizabeth Crowe. Mrs, J. F, Cobb then read a highly interesting paper dn The Christian in China and Japan. Mrs. Cobb opened her paper by speaking of the remark- able awakening in Japan and China the past few years. Oriental people are very practicable and they demand the best in religion as in other things and they are carefully weighing Chris- tianity to see how it compares with the Oriental religions, as a vital force. They are watching to see if it really makes people better. Something_must surely be done to awaken the hearts of others wha rep- resent us in.other lands to a sense of the responsibilities that are theirs as representatives of a Christian civ- ilization. The real danger that threat- ens the spread of the gospel o# Christ is not in the attitude of tho Chinese themselves, but rather in the attitude of those foreign nations who boast of their Christian civilization. Here is where the fight is the hardest and here we must focus our strongest ef- fort. It is not a pity that it can be said of but few Christians “They live like Christ”? Someone has called Japan Christian- ity’s Port Arthur in the far east. Japan stands on the highway of the nations. The worst the west has to give in the Way of vicious customs is being pour- ed in upon her and very naturally from Japan these things reach out and touch the rest of the Orient. Under German direction were started the first breweries in Japan: erican money built the first tobacco factory in Ko- rea. Mrs. Cobb. tlosed her paper by saying: “Both there and here there is great need for Christian people to lend their support to the sreat temperance cause.” Mrs, Starkweather read another poem, The Coming Day after which Mrs. Calvin Swan read a paper on A New Bondage for Africa. This paper vividly portrayed _the ovils that rum has wrought in Africa and showed the need of missionaries and total abstinence. Mrs. F. W. Coleman sboke of the czar of Russia, who, it"is said. has forbidden his soldiers to drink during the present war and who intends to enforce this rule after the war. The moeting was a very harmonious one and much interest in the temper- ance cause was shown by those pres- ent. AT THE AUDITORIUM. Vaudevilie and Motion Pictures. Marian and Cumberland, singers and dancers who fatroduced some of the very latest dances and songs proved the feature attraction on the bill at the Auditorium —on Thursday and the capacity house at the evep- ing’s performance brought the dancers back to the limelight with a burst of applause.

Still another comedy act on was that of Lambert and Van, two the bill for the last half of the week lively comedians who kept things hum- ming.

Fred Haglupd was elected chair- man. Robert McNeely took the floor and placed Judge Nelson J. Ayvlngs name before the convention. He spoke of Judge Ayling as a broadminded man of good judgment, one who was above petty jealousies, and treated all people alike” with fairness, and sald that although Judge Ayling was not definitely identified with the prohibi- tion party he believed the party would not suffer in any detail or in princi- ple by placing him on its ticket, so that he took pleasure in nominating the man who was the people’s choice for this office because he had been tried and found true, Mr. Mead seconded the nomination as well as the sentiments of Mr. Mc- Neely, he said, and Judge Ayling, who is_on’ the republican ticket for this office, was duly made 'the prohibition candidate.

Mr. Griffiin, the party candidate for governor, was invited to addvess the delegates, which he did in an interest- ing and ‘earnest way, declaring that the party to which he belonged had the biggest issue of the age, whether taken numerically, politically, finan. clally, socially or morally. drink bill is four billion dollars. Be. side this the tariff question pales Into insignificance. Mr. Griffin spoke of the advisability e list for the nomine- tions for officers in the towns for it was by this method of keeping at it that the prohibition party had gained success in Manchester where Emil L. G. Hohenthal had been elected first selectman on the prohibition ticket. It had also resulted in the vote in Willimantic, where the highest prohi+ of fllling out bition vote polled exceeded the high est_progressive vote polled, 56 to 53. He spoke against the pollcy of in creasing the tax on beer and othei spirituous liquors, for he-saidthe ef: fect was only to entrench the traff more_strongly. for win. The meeting adjourned about 9.45.
