STATE W. C. T. U. CONVENTION 1 AT BRINETON UST VEER literestiig Details tf W«k I; wnei devoted to tie Temperance Ci»se At tie opening action of the thirty1 sixth annual convention of tbe New Jeraey Woman's .Christian Temperance Union, held in Central M. E. Church, Bridgeton, tbe auditorium was crowded to its capacity and some were oompellea to stand. It <was a magnificent audience and the banners and flowers lent a festive air to tbe occasion, while enthusiastic interest marked the exercises throughout. Mrs. Emma Bourne, of Newark, tbe State president, acted aa presiding officer with her well known grace and dingity. The church choir, under tbe leadership of T. H. Woodruff, assisted i n tbe song service and tbe congregation joined in a Scripture reading, tbe familiar "Crusade Psalm" being uaed. Tbe pledge was sIbo recited and tbe invocation was offered by Rev. N. J. Wright, superintendent of Bridgeton Diatrcit of tbe New Jersey Methodist Episcopal Conference. A beautiful^ arrangement of "Jesua Lover of My Soul" was well rendered ! by a quartette composed of Miss Katharine Maier. Miss Ella Cox, Frank Barker and T. H. Woodruff. THE WELCOMES Mrs. J. S. Barnes, President of the Bridgeton Union, gave the first adress 1 or welcome. She pointed with pride to tbe faot that Bridgeton has no licensed saloons, and contrasted the White I Ribboners, both aa to numbers and influence, at the time tbe first convention was held in Brigeton, which was inn 1882, Miss Frances^Willard being present, and at tbe present convention. ' She gave enthusiastic welcome to this the third session of State Convention in Bridgeton. She said that W. C. T. U. had now (become so strong "that ! even the politicians had begun to sit up and take notice. She said, one night recently a man and hi« wife , went to the moving ^pictures. He r found a seat for her, but not being , pleased with it she went farther to the , front and as ihe followed her he was heard to remark, "When you follow a . woman you must keep on the move." She left us to make the application. CHURCHES , Rev. Berber H. Beadle, pastor of , the Second Presbyterian Church, and I the senior pastor or Bridgeton, in r point of service, made a most happy , address in which he lauded tbe work of the organization. In'course of bis re- . marks he said, "You women are an . inspiration to us. A spur to us minis- | ters. You hurt sometimes, but we like .it just the same. We welcome . you the best, the grandest women in . j the world. We welcome you with . | smiles, we want you to leave us with I sighs. " Graciously, cordially and in . | his usual fascinating style Mr. Beadle | gave us glaa welcome in behalf of the | churches. 1 SCHOOLS > Along with a good running narrative » j of ex-President Roosevelt as a Nimrod, 1 ; Hampton's Magazine for November " publishes several pages of by far the best, most vivid and most life like photograph of the Roosivelt hunting • expedition into Africa that have yet ' appeared. It is an achievement the r more extraordinary because of the • i difficulty which al) other magazines have experienced in securing such 2 Mr. Roosevelt, it appears, was not ' I accompanied into the hunting grounds " of East Africa by the army of journal- | ista and photographers who followed ; him overseas. Several hardy pictureI makers attempted to trail along, but } '■ these were firmly turned beck. «ll, ' that is. save one. The exception was j Mr. Warrington Dawson. ( Mr. Dawson is a well known memI ber of the American colony in Paris ' | and be is a personal friend of tbe j Roosevelt family. Consequently, it I was possible for him »o make the only f photographs of the Roosevelt expediI I tion in the hunting grounds— with the , exception of those taken by Kermit j j Roosevelt— and to make over to Hampton's Magazine tbe exclusive rights of publication. jl City School Superintendent H. J. , j Neal extended a welcome in behalf of i tbe nublic schools and the Board of s Education He said, be was glad to . i repre; tnt this important part of tbe tv. 3 -.tinned on Page Five)
