Howard M. of Loudoun county, Stale president of the W. C. T. presided at the second days' ses? sion of the School of Methods, which was called to order promptly at 9:30 a.

m. yesterday. The devotional exercises wore conducted Mrs. Cartland, of North read the 12th chap? ter of Romans; and tho audience sang "More Love to Thee, Christ." WORK. The first number on the morning pro? gram was the subject of work.

Mrs. John Crlder, secretary of the Norfolk District, explained the beauty and nature of the work to be done by "Y's" for temperance, telling of the Importance of getting tho first bloom of young manhood and young womanhood interested. Mrs. IX. If.

Jones complimented the Norfolk "Y's" on their splendid work. Tt had been a great help to the cause of temperance. Miss Mattic Willie, who Is largely en? gaged In work, spoke of her efforts in this Hold of labor, and asked for the hearty co-operation of all. -M-rn. Stcvetui called -attention-to the fact that work is very helpful, and car.not be overlooked.

In the State of Maine, there is no separate work, tho "Y's" work In unison with tho W. C. T. U. Mrs.

Crlder thanked tho C. T. U. for carefully watching over and the In? terest shown in work. QUESTION BOX.

The question box -was then opened. First question, "Would like Mrs. Ste-I vens to explain more fully the charac? ter of 'Willard Memorial and where the program can be secured, and to givo some idea how they ought to be." It ought to be public, meeting, held on the 171 It of February, or near it as possible. Programs could bo found in the Union Signal of January 25th. The request Is to be made at this meet? ing for lo he sent from every local union to the memorial fund to aid in extending the' work of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union.

If we have this fund on hand we can keep our organizers at work nil the time. Mrs. said she hoped that the W. C. T.

U. of Virginia would respond promptly to the S2 call and send it without delay to the State Secretary, so that It ean bo forwarded to the treasu? rer of the fund as early tis practicable. Second question, "How Many 'tied Letter Days' are now on the W. C. T.

calendar?" Answered by Miss Gor? T(iird question, "How Many National Organizers Now Field?" Mrs. Fourth question, "How Many Unions Compose the National W. C. T. Mrs.

Fifth question, "Does the National Union Allow Alternates for Offices in the Exociitlvn?" Answered Mrs. chosen by the State Ex? ecutive is allowed to sit for the presi? dent in the exi ctitlve meetings, treas? urers and secretaries may not have proxies. If neither delegate or alter? nate Is present sonic one else from the State may be chosen. Sixth question, "How can the State fiiiperinfenilcri at contest lvnrlr reach all unions?" Answer: "P.y continually advertising in the Slate paper, by using the leaf? lets of Mrs. Carrlan and personal let? ters." Seventh question, "How to get now members, and how to keep "Give them work to Gordon.

Eighth question, "What is the best way to do Flower Mission Work?" "Mako record of each meeting, of tho work done since the last meeting. A flower should accompany eneh gift, if Ninth question, "May a State conference demand of its members the purity and cigarette pledges?" Mrs. would be a fine thing; but it Is not constitutional, and has not been recomended by the Na? tional Union as a lest of membership, It was not thought advisable. To require It Is to get out of harmony with tlie constitution. It is good to en? force the teaching of purity, but not to make it a test of membership.

A con? ference may make rules to govern Its meetings only." Question ten, "Should one known to bo sec-king admission to a 'Y' for personal aggrandizement be admitted?" Mrs. could that be known? If the surmise is correct, the number would probably become un And Every Form of Torturing Disfiguring Skin and Scalp Humors Cured by Spkkdy Ccr.F.

Some college "Y's" have a monthly meeting, to which all the girls are in4 vited to hear a program which teaches them something of temperance work and needs." Question twelve, "What is the best method of conducting parlor meet? ings?" "An attractive program, with plenty of temperance in it." Question thirteen, "Can, one do Intelli? gent work without the State minutes?" A YOUNG VETERAN. Miss Gdi-don introduced a young vet? eran, little Miss Graco Wlllnrd Shep? herd, who repeated the Loyal Legion pledge and sang a stanza of "Saloons." Question fourteen, "What work do the 'Y's' accomplish?" same work that the older unions lloge. The hour for noontide service was an? nounced, and the congregation sang, ''HOW Firm a Foundation," and was -led in prayT7r-by-Mrgr-Mttry Ev PARLIAMENTARY DRILL The next on the program was a par? liamentary drill by Mrs. Stevens.

defended parjlamentary law as the etiquette elf the broader circle of government. It teaches one how to boo have well In public assemblies. It isi necessary to learn how to conduct one's self In a small assembly, in a parlor. If one cannot, does not know how to behave in the little meeting, she cannot behave properly in the greater assem? blies. The duties of women to-day de? mand that they have all sorts of labor saving appliances.

Parliamentary usage Is such a help. "Madame" President Is the correct form of address of a woman chairman. In simple routine business It is permis? sible to use motions not formally intro? duced until It has been seconded. The one-who seconds should rise, address the chair and be recognized. Tills Is the proper form.

To say "Are you ready for the question?" Is superfluous. No one may speak against his own mo? tion; 'lie may vote against it. Mrs. Stevens recommended that every member of the union purchnse a copy of Roberts' parliamentary laws, for guidance, as It is the best In use, and used by most deliberative bodies. WINES IN COOKING.

The use of wines in cooking and for communion was briefly but ably dis? cussed by Mrs. Cnrtland, of North Car? olina. She told a story of a lady who used wines in cooking, anil on her table, in order to keep her husband and son close to her. The boy became an hab? itual drunkard. Some women use In? toxicants without knowing the great harm they do.

The hour for the morning session to adjourn was announced, the doxology was sung, and the meeting dismissed AFTERNOON SESSION. A mother's meeting was held at 4 p. m. yesterday, which wae lurgely at? tended. The exercises began by singing "I Do Not Care For Earthly Store." followed by reading the lutn I'salm arid prayer- by Rev.

Graham II, Lamboth. Mrs. Mary E. Webb read a paper on "Mother's Meeting." She quoted from Mis.s Wlllard, "Mother's Meetings are the Lineal Descendcnts of the Matprlal Association of Sixty Years." The ques? tion is whether as much is done In the meetings ns in the old days of self sacrillee. Bach member of the ma? ternal association thought it her duty to prepare herself for work by read? ing and prayer.

To-day there is no ex? cuse for lack of knowledge; there are so many helps. The vital question Is "How shall we so order our lives that our children may learn from us truth? fulness nnd purity?" The W. T. P. A.

publishes so many helps for mother's meetings that no one need be Ignorant if she has money to buy them. Mrs. Stevens emphasized Mrs. Webb's statements and reiterated Dr. Mary Wood-Allen's books and papers.

She says the best leaflet she knowH is Miss WlHard's "Safety for School Children." Perhaps the evils of society were ne? ver discussed so freely us since the world rang with the awful revelations of "London Life" made by the Pall Mall Gazette. People were aroused and began to look into their own cities, and were appalled at what they saw. Some just criticisms are made upon the ex? pressions used by women in speaking of social evils. Women should see to it that no expression open to criticism is ever used in the privacy of mother's Is heredity or environment the stronger? Back of the heredity of man Is the heredity of God. There la always hope In good environment.

Use methods of teaching which might be preached everywhere. Mrs. Pretlow. of the Peace Depart? ment, was introduced, and presented a number of peace calendars. A rising vote of thanks was tendered Mrs.

Stevens und Miss Gordon, which was gracefully acknowledged by Mrs. Stevens. NIGHT SESSION. The School of Methods came to a close lastt night at the Freemason Street Baptist Church when Mrs. Howard M.

State president, and the Rev. Howard M. spoke to a large audi? ence. Rev. J.

J. Taylor, D. D-, pastor of the church, presided and conducted the devotional exercises. Mrs. was the first speaker.

The burden of her address was the advance made In the temperance cause In this and other countries by the women, who took ud tho battle for the destruction of the liquor traffic after all other efforts had failed. She advanced the theory that God, In His wisdom and goodness, bad destined women to carry the banner of temperance to a llnal conquest. They hud met with defeat In many but they were still undaunted and were confident of ulti? mate victory under the blessings of God, under whose leadership they had gone forth to battle. In closing, she urged all to enlist In tho grand work A REVIEW. Rev.

Mr. followed in an able nddrcss. In which he reviewed the work of the national liquor organization and its power for evil. He said It was or? ganized for the promotion and exten? sion of Its business. It has Its agents all over the country, whose chief object was to entrap tho young and tench them to drink, which will eventually lend them to a drunkard's grave.

They look to the boys for patronage, for men who arrive to his age and have never drank, and "who have fonnd sober habits, seldom, If ever, fall by the tempter. It is the young who arc tempted, and when once they learn to sip the Intoxicating cup, the appetite grows und they become engulfed in Its powerful embrace. He said the liquor traffic takes one boy out of every six. and niakes hint 1 end h'is life in a drunkard's grave, and explained how this Is done- Ho said the saloon power had laid Its hnud upon the government and made it a means to assist it In extending the traffic. The temperance question Is so closely allied to the missionary cause, which you are here to represent to-night, that you con scarcely sepnralo them.

The IbIcs of tho sea are opening up to the mis? sionary of the cross. In Manila in 1S97 J2S0.O00 was consumed for liquor, and in eleven months of 1891) It had In? creased to $472.090. Truly the trade follows the Mag in advance of theimis? sionary. In the two years the traffic in Cuba increased from 567,000 to $S90. 000.

Does not this nppnlllng state of affairs call loudly to every Christian to fight the further encroachments of this terrible Moloch which Is spreading ruin ana destruction In Its wake. He said, in that the W. C. T. U-, under the blessing of God, bad been called to stay the tide of this terrible demon.

Intemperance, and appealed to his audience to help It In its noble work to rescue our beloved country from Its shackles. DEMOCRATIC CLUBS. TWO ORGANIZED IN NORFOLK LAST NIGHT. A large number of Democrats gath? ered In the rooms of tho Real Estate and Stock Exohangc last night and or? ganized a club. Mr.

The consideration was $30,000 the prop? erty sold consisted of two large finish? ing at Blscoe nnd one at Aberdeen. The Blscoe plant is the larger of the two, having a capacity of 40,000 feet a day.

This invasion of the Seaboard's terri? tory by the Soulhern has made this road already one of the best laying short roads in the United States, most desirable property for either one of these great railway systems.
