White light includes all the
prismatic colors, so the white ribbon
stands for all phrases of reform aud
there is no phrase which tho drink
curso has not rendered necessary.
This wo did not see at first, when
Margaret E. Winslow of Now York
proposed this ribbon as our badge.
My own urgent desire was then that
the home women should wear and
finally redeem from association
with tho liquor power, the colors of
the nation, and at that Chicago con
vention of 1877 wo wero all wearing
the red, white and blue ribbons I
had furnished, when the wiser vote
of tho majority made whlto our
badge. I now eeo how much wider
was the reach of this pure emblem
that holds within Itself the colors of
all nations and stands for universal
purity and patriotism, universal
prohibition and phiantrophy, and
universal peace. "Hearts are near
though hands are dear," aud wom
en' j hands and hearts all round the
world will be united by our white
emblem ere another generation
passes out of sight. As president of
the World's W. C. T. U., I have al
ready sent out to every nation the
purposes and plans of that society,
and there is now no speech or
language where Its voice is not
heard. With Mrs. Leavltt on her
way to Africa, after planting the W.
C. T. U. in India, Australia, China,
and Japan, Mary B. Willard and
Mrs. Dr. Stuckenburg devoted to
our cause at the capital of Germauy,
in Madame Mejorheim and Char
lotte Gray in Scandinavia, and a W.
C. T. U. organized in the world's
wine centre and metropolis, the
city of Paris itself; with Alaska ex
plored, thanks to tho enterprise of
Miss Ackerman; Great Britain,
Canada, Australia and the United
States thickly planted with our
White Ribbon Societies, we may
well wonder at what God hath
wrought in fourteen years from tho
whirlwind of tho Women's Temper
