East in White Ribbon is the badge of the World’s W.C.T.U., and unites the women of all countries in their sacred crusade for God and Home and Hvery Land. The badge, being so simple, is easily worn at all times, and is the distinguishing mark of this great cosmopolitan work ; it has often rendered a most helpful service by way of recognition among members, who would not otherwise have become acquainted. The Society has circulated in 50 different nations the Polyglot Petition, addressed to all the Governments of the world, against the alcohol and opium traffics, and has secured, by individual signatures and the attestation of great Societies, an aggregate of seven million names, This Petition was presented to the President of the United States by Lady Henry Somerset and Miss Willard in 1895. A beautifully-bound fac-simile book of the signatures of all her subjects in different countries was presented to Her Majesty Queen Victoria in 1897, and was graciously received by her. The following year the petition was presented to the Canadian Government. Appeals are constantly sent by Missionaries in all parts of the world to the officers of the World’s W.U.T.U. for White Ribbon Missionaries, as it is found the drink evil blocks the way for Christian work, A World’s W.C.T.U. Convention is held every two or three years, These Conventions have met at Boston, Chicago, London, Toronto, Edinburgh, and Geneva. All members of the B.W.T.A. visiting other countries are urged to communicate with Miss Agnes Slack. |
