Conference at Battle Creek Oct. 31 to "0'. 6, 1907. Th “wince of the National Purity me I6 b'e held at Battle Creek, Mich, promises to be Ittcnded with Weighty counsels and influence against the many forms of social impurity. Not only does the Federation directly attack the white slave trade, but it seeks to promote purity of life by every agency of prevention, education and reform, From a personal letter of the Presiâ€" dent. Mr. B. S.

All religious insti‘ tutions and'churclpeg, reform and tem~ perancc societies, rescue homest labor unions, golitical parties and other organ- izations whose principles accord with the purpose of this Federation are urged to raccept this invitation.
