Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S c ASTO R IA . • Jottings Of A Delegate To 'The Editor 0/' The New Era • The annual Convention of the On- tario Branch of the Dominion Temper ance Alliance, which was held in 'To- ronto recently was considered to be .ope of theemost earnest and successful ever held m the Province. There were between three and four hundred aelegates, present, composed whilst, of men and women who had been through many hard fought battles. who carne together from all parts of the Province not merely to dongratu- • late over the victories gained, but to counsel together and plan for turther ,and more energetic work in carrying c n the great r eforrn. A marked feature of the proceed- ings was the inaninity of: opinion which prevailed upon nearly every question discussed—particularly con- cerning the 3.5 handicap, •which was regarded as a great hindrance to the work. The showing of the past year's pro- gress was most encouraging, and fraught with bright hopes for the future. " - The fact, of over 70 municipalities marrying the local option by -law,which with the education eampaign now • goingnn, will close about 250 drinking places in the Province, means more than can be adegetely expeessed. •' The Convention recognized, by un animous resolution, • the energetic manner in which the officials of the License Department of the Govern- ment have performed their duties in %enforcing the law and expressed their satisfaction inview of proposed safe- guards in voting. From the testimony presented by leading business and pro- fessional men and the s tirring addresses delivered, le was, clearly manifest that the case of Local. Option is stronger today than ever before. The "Field Day" department, which has been introduced recently, is now a leading feature in the work of the Alliance, By its operation, all the churches are brought . into closer touch with the great movement, and the pulpits are being placed at the dile posal of the Executive Committee. In Toronto on "World's Temperance Sunday," 152 Churches were opened and most- of them supplied by repre- eentatives of the Alliance. —While there was great cause for con- gratulation and thanksgiving in view of the past year's record, the occasion was marked by the inauguration of a new campaign. Already the roll -call has been .sounded. Campaign com- mittees are being formed, petitions circulated &c.
