The members avid fol-. i owing extra guests were Included in Mrs, Ella A. Boole, Vice President of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union Talks Interestingly of the Work By DOLLY DALRYMI'LK WHAT impressed me most yester day upon hearing from Mrs. Ella A. Boole, vice president of the National Woman's Christian Tem perance union, about her work with that organization—and from every woman, in fact, who has felt the call to some un usual mission—Is how doubly steep and difficult her task is made by prejudioe and convention. Whatever she attains she must win with :v.ice the struggle that a man lias to make as a rule; she has to wage a bat tle not only with the difficulties inher ent in her endeavor, hut at every turn of the road she must overcome obstacles, lodge the poisoned arrows from envious *anks and make up her mind to be thwarted from many angles. Every great cause Is born from great ’allures and imperfect achievements When St. Francis of^Vssial saw his Lord n a vision and received from the Divine Ips the command. "Francis, rebuild* my jhtirch." he believed that the Master (poke of the little church within which le knelt at that moment, and immediate y he set about the task of rebuilding be fallen walls, and it was not until ater that he realized that what was neant was to renew the Catholic church, hrough the spirit of poverty, but the St. rrancla who so ingeniously carried the tones and the great reformer who so nlraculously led the people to triumph ut of the spirit, are one and the same >erson in different stages of develop nent. Mrs. Boole has seen over a quarter of a century's work in the Woman's Christian Temperance union, when thi stones, so to speak, were being laid for iti foundation that those who will come aftei in this great work may reach the goal because of those who believed and labored before them. It is easy to understand Mrs. Boole's tremendous influence in her work: she is a remarkable woman In many respects: such a vital woman is rarely seem; she exudes a dignity, a wisdom, a sympathy and a sincerity in the great work she Is engaged in. which are more potent argu ments for her successful work than any retailing of mere fac ts could be. Mrs. Boole's beautiful face is worthy of .lose study; her eyes are the chief feature of her striking physiognomy, shaded by it profusion of gray-brown hair, they shine upon you with a light that is at once wise and sympathetic, and tell you more plainly than anything else that her life is centered In tier Work, the work of building up that great structure—the National Woman's Chiis tian Temperance union. “Out in Seattle.’’ Mrs. Booole said upon being introduced to me. “where I have Just been in attendance upon the meet ing of the national union, 1 found the most encouraging stale of .affairs. The gain this year in membership to the union is 29.7ti3; last year the gain was 31,000. making within the last two years a total of nearly 00,000 new recruits to tile cause of temperance. Besides being vice president of the National Woman's Christian Temperance union, I am presi dent or the New York state union, which has a membership of 40.000, 3733 new mem bers being added within the last year, so you see every year the work is gaining. "Will New York city ever come under prohibition, do you think?" I asked. “That will come with the state of New York standing on a state-wide prohibi tion basis,” Mrs. Boole answered, “which will come through an amendment of the national constitution. Chicago, you see, has gone so far as to come under the Sunday dry law, which is merely an en foicement which is absolutely necessary to the success of a republican form of government—a democracy, what you will. This is even more necessary where pro hibition obtains.” “Do you find in the Increased interest in the temperance movement that are more interested in the cause than men?” I asked. “Women must work to lay the founda tion.” Mrs. Boole said quickly. “Women work from so many standpoints—health moials, organization—and it ?s through them that the fundamentals must come.” “I have been interested in the work of temperance since I was a very young girl.” Mrs. Boole said. “As a schoolgirl I was a crusader. I married a minister who was equally interested in the work, and soon after my marriage l took it lip again actively. A college education helped me to combat many of the hard ships that another pioneer might have en countered. At that time there was prob ably one woman to 10 men who had a college education. After that as a teacher I had even a more definite training for the subject. In the amalgamation of the Presbyterian church with the Cumber land Presbyterian church in their mis sionary work I took an active part and served as corresponding secretary from 19011 to 1909. 1 have also served 12 years as president of the New York union. I had the honor of being elected in Atlanta last year to the vice presidency of the National Woman's Christian Temperance union, the first vice president to be elect ed—all others had been appointed. I pm really what you might call a pioneer i i temperance work, as my efforts in Its behalf cover -30 years of active en deavor." lie courtesy: Mrs. Harvey Frohoff, Mrs. R. Batson, Mrs. R. T.
