Dr. Armor was the drawing card at the evening session of the Dominion convention of the W.C.T. U. last evening in King St. United church. The comparatively smail amount of publicity, which Miss Armor received in the city, was sufficient to attract a large num- ber to fill the body of the church, with a number in the balcony.

There are 51 countries federated in the World's w.CT.U, Dr. Gordon stated that her prim- ary reason in coming to Canada was because the next World's conven- tion will be held in Toronto in 1931. The last time this conven- tion was held there was in 1897 when Frances Willard officiated. In speaking of Canada, Dr. Gordon said that in the World's W.C.T.U. Mrs. W.T.G. Brown, of Kingston, corresponding secretary of the Canadian convention, is a member of the World's Union as honorary GREATEST WOMAN ORATOR IN AMERICA AT DOMINION CONVENTION OF W.L.T.U.

The new president is also a believer in the cause and has proclaimed that absolute abstinence be taught in the schools. - At the close of her address, Ur. Gordon stated that at the request of 'the mayor, T. B. Mitchell, he was to become a member of the W.C.T.U. and was to be presented with a white ribbon from Scotland. This is the first time Dr. Gordon can remember of a mayor of the city wishing to join the W.C.T.U. Dr. Gordon also presented Mrs. Wright, president of the Dominion W.C.T.U.,, with an antique silver teaspoon, which had been used by the founder of the W.C.T.U., Fran- ces Willard.

Dr. Mary Harris Armor, of Geor- gia, director of evangelism, the speaker of the evening, was then introduced. Dr. Armor is quite the most charming speaker who has addressed any audience in Usn- awa for many years. Humor mix- "Facing the Facts" last evening an exceedingly interesting one. In opening her talk, Miss Armor stated emphatically that she benvv- ed that the liquor trafic will die and that Canada will be the nuxt country to go dry. Miss Armor aid not make a statement during the entire talk that she did not prove to the entire satisfaction of all. In every case she asked but that every member of the audience use cowmn- mon sense. "Do not believe all you read in the 'wet' papers, they do not tell the truth. Propaganda Special orders taken for Bridal outfits. : Reasonable The Fashion Shoppe 84 Simcoe St. S. Phone 3083W will do you no harm if you are not propagoose," was the way Dr. Armor appealed to the followers of the W.C.T.U, Dr. Armor is a resident of Geor- gia, but she has seen prohibition come into effect in every Southern state with the exception of three. From experience Dr. Armor was able to show that prohibition is a success in the United States. She stated most emphatically that the 18th amendment of the federal con- stitution would never he removed and the W.C.T.U. had God's power behind them to give them strength. She spoke to the Canadian dele- gates about continuing the fight even after they had succeeded in putting prohibition into efteci. Miss Armor said that she could show that prohibition was a suec- cess in the United States. By suc- cess she did not mean perfection but merely doing what they had set out to do. In proving her state- ment, Miss Armor showed that United States has had an increase in prosperity .since prohibition. Since the drinking of liquor nas never made a man any richer for the drinking of it, it stands to rea- son that if the residents of the States now have to pay five times as much for liquor as before, thea if one man does not prosper from the drinking of liquor, millions of men could not and yet the country prospers. Miss Armor portrayed the "Wet' agents as men not work- ing for the good of humanity, but for money at all times. She stated that they refuse to allow the citi- zens of the country to see how suc- cessful prohobition is. To give conclusive evidence of the success of prohibition, Miss Armor stated that since the 18th amendment has been passed there have been no bread riots, which were so usual in United States be- ed with facts made the address on! fore, when people starved because the price of bread was raised. They are no longer crying for cheaper aN aft MISS ANNE ELIZABETH WILSON Niece of Mrs. Lloyd Harris of Brantford and daughter of the late Robert Burns Wilson and Mrs. Wilson, whose marriage to Mr. Victor Blochin of Aurora, son of Mr. M.

Since prohibition the United States has saved two billion dollars and there work has linked all the World's Unions with the local Unions with e Community and Purity She spoke of the work of Mrs. Wright, the president in United States and in Bermuda and of Mrs. Wright's and Mrs. McKine ley"s work in Lausanne, Switzer land, at the World's conventivn and of Miss Giles' special work in Canada.
