C. T. U has nerer received any money for the “endorsement of any school physico!ogy;” condemns bird shooting tournaments. the use of narcotics, and lynching, farors female suffrage and deprecates “the use of weapons in school drills as fostering a military spirit.” Miss Willard favored a resolution admitting Catholic and Hebrew women to active eo-operation in W.

She laid special emphasis on the word “Christian.” Miss Willard with a good deal of feeling said: “They have extended the hand of sympathy to our organization and our cause. We should invite them to co-operate. I want to welcome them to us if they want to come." Finally the convention enthusiastically adopted the resolution. Miss Willard said she thanked God fog this act of the convention, and that shd considered it an honor and a pleasure td extend the hand of fellowship to Catholic and Hebrew women.
