Temperance Meeting At Christina Church Deliberates On Prohibition
A Sunday temperance meeting at Christina church featured a 16 year old lead by Millie Atkinson and a key essay by G M Locke discussing prohibition, women’s roles, and current politics. The address urged church aid against liquor traffic and praised reform efforts while warning politicians who back alcohol revenue. Hood’s Sarsaparilla ad follows the benediction.
