The report showed that the Eugene
Union had taken on new iife.
The auditor reported the treasurer's
books perfectly andi beautifully kept,
and e, rising vote, of thanks end ac

and methodical system.
The afternoon session was opened by
a devotional exercise led by Mrs.
Steele, president of the Marlon county
Union, and a song, "Jesus Lover of
My Foul." ,
A beautiful gavel made by a convict

the Salem Union and exhibited to the

work done for the convicts by that
organisation.

V U-. and nearly all teachers teach It
, well. Rev. T. F. Royal also delivered
an address. At the Anti-Alcohol Med.
leal Association In Berlin, 7.000 physi
cians attended, and these all pledged
not to use alcohol In medicine. Liquors
Thave been barred from all government
buildings. "When you: hear an, Indi
vidual say the world is growing worse,
say there was never so high, a stand
ard of morals, and that Is why , the
world seems worse. Charity, Is no
longer degraded, but sought out and
given work. Does the sun ; rising
bring to us a thought of the glory ot
st man with money laying H at the
feet of the poor. Gray fealni must not
always be officers. , Youns; women
must take the positions.
At the close of the president's ad
dress Mrs. Chariton sang "Witt There
Be Any Stars to ty Crown.-. The

address by Miss UH!an rbelps. T Re

speaker. She- is V woman tA great

St. George and the Dragon. and said
in part, after giving- ar-ryncpsis f the
well known, legend: "SLr George is the
emblem ex truth? and purity. , The
dragon la the emblem of cruelty and
evil.; St. George struck the dragon in
Its vulnerable point. Itv power for
good or evil is shown, ln that for every
Christian 10 nave been made drunk
ards. The search for the Invulnerable
point reveals the liquor traffic. There
is no difference between the saloon In
film and . the saloon is London.
Wnat has tne license system demon
strated? What business Is it that can
make a Presbyterian minister go to
the ballot box and bow down to a beer
barrel. The saloon Is able to control
the conscience of the pulpit. We make
our supply, and adtertJse the supply.
Clsoe your saloons and your Hemand
will; be decreased. When yon license
a saloon you give them the privilege
of manufacturing drunkards. .. Who
will take the place of the oid. drunk
ards? The boys. - Nickels invested to
day will result In dollars being spent
tomorrow. . Business will go when the
churches want It to go. . Jf the man
who sells cannot be in the church, the
drunkard cannot, and the one who
consents to the traffic should not. '4
' "The ; indifference of Christians
means conviction of sin. A crowd of
thieves, thugs and prostitutes comes
on the heels of the saloon. The need
Is not more church membership, but
more God. more consecration. ."Up and
sanctify yourselves, there Is an ac
cursed thing in the tent, said Acban.
People love the Lord so well they can
not work for him. Guard mother's
slang. A man loved his wife so well
be could not leave her long enough to
earn a living, and she. died of starva
tion. W'lt the liquor business commit
suicide? No."
Mrs. Jennie McPherson recited "The
Old. Old Story. A solo "It Is God's
Way, was beautifully rendered by
Mrs JZ. J. Rlggs. The session closed
by; the benediction pronounced by Rev.

treasurer the annual dlies. as is the
case each year in every state, we have
some new ones on the roll. If you have
read the Searchlight, as every local
member should, you know where these
new ones are located, and through
whose efforts these have- come to pass.
I 'especially commend the plan pro
jected by one or two unions, whose of
ficers with some of the members went
to another community and .did mis
sionary work, either organlxea or made
possible for the speaker they brought
to organize the new unions. Will-you
not look around when you reach your
homes and see where this, work should
be done, and then proceed to do it.
;The Heppner disaster brought a
loss to us as to the local union. Among
those who went down on that fateful
day was the president of the Heppner
W. C...T..U. and. her husband, and the
daughter and sister of our ever faith
ful Mrs. Briggs Mrs. Oney, their long
time secretary, was ,a way on a visit,
together with her family, and so their
lives were saved, though they lost their
home and , all Its belongings. I am
glad to know that some of the unions
remembered the suffering union in a
substantial way. I think this conven
tion should meet the necessary ex
pense of sending a worker to them for
three or four days, that the scattered
forces may be brought together. I am
sure you will consider this a pleasure
rather than a duty, and will takesome
action. The saloon there goes on with
the same dire influence. Let us start
the counter current. .
j "Harmony has prevailed throughout
th year and the bond that binds us is
j.ronger today than, ever. I note with
pleasure the unions that are owning
their own meeting places. They are
strong, reliable unions. Albany, and
Salem are settled. We all rejoice that
Salem Is privileged, through the gen
erosity of our long-time friend and co-
laborer, Mary Ramp, together with the
efforts of a host of their brave women,
are this year abiding in their own
home. I would say to' others, 'Go thou
and do likewise. .
