W. C. T. U. Held Regular Session The Greencastle W. C. T. U. met in regular sessionon Monday afternoon, Oct. 12, in Keystone chapel of the Gobin Memorial church. In the absence of the president Mrs. Davies, who was out of town attending a Baptist conference, and her assistant Mrs. Sarah Wright, who was unable to attend on account of sickness, the meeting was in charge of Mrs. J. E, Courtney. The meeting was opened by singing “A Change to Keep I Have,” with Miss Minetta Wright at the piano. The hymn was followed by prayer by Mrs. J. E. Courtney. After a brief business session, a short memorial service was held for Mrs. L. H. Dirks, wife of Dean Dirks of DcPauw university, who died recently. At the time of her death she was acting vice president of the Greencastle W. C. T. U. and was a loyal supporter of the temperance cause. For a number of years she was one of the most active and helpful members of this organization, and her cheerful smile, her gracious personality and loyal enthusiasm arc sadly missed by all who knew and worked with her. The song “There is a Land of Pure Delight. Where Immortals Dwell,” very aptly expressed the sentiment of the every member of W. C. T. U. Each member feels that Mrs. Dirks is on the “immortals.” Though she is gone her memory lingers on. The influence of her life and work re-

mains.

After the song Mrs. H. A. Church offered a beautiful, sincere, heartfelt prayer of sympathy and appreciation for the memory of the life and work of Mrs. Dirks. Mrs. Heavenridge spoke briefly of her sincerity, courage and loyalty to the temperance cause. Mrs. Frank Jones and Mrs. J. E. Courtney paid tribute to the pleasant associations her able assistance and helpful cooperation had afforded to them in the years they had worked together. Rev. Claude M. McClure added his tribute in speaking of her pleasing personality and gracious charm, during their friendly, though brief, association. Mrs. Dirks is gone to join the immortals, but she is not forgotten. What she has done for the temperance cause and for the local W. C. T. U. will live long in memory. The general subject of the afternoon program was “Christian Citizenship.” The devotions were led by Mrs. Westfall who used the story of the Good Samaritan, reading from the 10th chapter of St. Luke. She emphasized the value of Christian training as a remedy for wrong living and ended with a helpful and uplifting prayer. A splendid address was then given in a forceful and convincing manner

by P.ev. McClure, pastor of the Gobin Memorial church, in which he discussed the value of a scientific knowledge of alcohol and its influence on body, mind and soul. He said the organization should emphasize the teaching of the effect of drinking on the health of young people, its dire influence on the home, the community, the public welfare, the state and the nation. He also stressed the value of Christian training. The approach to the alcohol question must be through the proper education. If we have Christian citizenship, we must have Christian training, he said. In Christian training alcholic liquor will have no part, he said in conclusion.
