ANDREW JACKSON, Clerk. TJie necessity of auto livery comes every now and then to all. Don’t for- The W. C. T . U, met April 19 at the home pf Mrs, Eveleth. It has been announced as a Dues Social. A good ly number responded to the roll-call. ’’The W. C. T, U.” was the prayer meeting topic. Its marvelous origin and phenomenal achievements were briefly considered. If those who doubtingly ask the question, ’‘What is the W. C. T, TJ. doing anyway,” would only read its history, tbev would easily get their question answered, The state prohibition campaign is the liveliest question for consideration at this time. This is an opportunity of ridding the state of liquor which must not bap as?ed by, There are two strong reasons in its behalf. The first is that of preparedness. Russia learn ed that at the beginning of the Enron- ean struggle. Alcohol tends to unfit a man for service. Another strong reason is the food question. One of the ways to solve that problem is not only to raise more grain and v eg -' etables, but to take care of what we have. * ; | The state has asked every member to give one dollar for the campaign work, one third o f which is to re-i main-in the local treasury. For-ih&t purpose two captains were appointed. They divided the members between, them, and the day of the meeting th ey1 nlaced $50 into the hands of the treas urer, ivithr the promise of more to follow. I t was decided to organize) a. dry federation, consisting of reqre-' sentatives from all other organiza tions. The social committee added much to the enjoyment of the occasion by providing nice refreshments and-“a social hour after the meeting. The meeting wato also enlivened with a solo by Mrs. John Johnson. Mrs. Wilson, wife of the President, i Mrs. Marshall, wife of the Vice-Pres-, ident, and the wives of the members • of the Cabinet, have resolved to r e -. duce their scale of living to the sim- i plest possible form. They have also isned an appeal to the women of J America to do likewise, thus prevent- j ing actual suffering later on. Some one, discussing the subject,: says that it is in, good form now to{ say “I cannot afford it.” It is in good form to dress plainly. „It is in good, form to live frugally. It is in good •, form to avoid extravagance o f every kind. It is bad form to give expensive entertainments. I t is bad form to* set an elaborate table. OHIOHERSCOT CHURCH SERVICE.
