A UNION IS NOT A CHURCH.
Miss Willard to the Boston W.C.T.U. sfcnt this message. “The W.C.T.U. is not a Church; it is a Temperance Union; it has no creed, hut a declaration of principles. Among
its rally cries are these: —“No sectarianism in religion, no sectionalism in politics, no sex in citizenship.' If Catholics or Protestants, Jew or Gentile will come to us as fraternal message bearers, or as working allies upon this sacred platform, let us not only clasp their friendly hands, but go more than half way to welcome them to the broad outlook and blessed fellowship of a Union that lias the home for its centre, harmony for its watchword, and the happiness of ill for its heaven-appointed goal.’’
