GOOD CITIZENSHIP.
I wish to call the attention of all our Unions to the Licensing Committee elections, which will take place in the second week in March, and nominations for which must be sent in before March 2nd. As these Committees are elected tor three years, it is of the greatest importance that the Temperance party should be well represented, more especially as when the war comes to an end, as we sincerely hope it will do before the end of that time, it may be expected that efforts will be made to revert to prewar conditions as regards the sale of liquor. Unions arc therefore advised to make a special effort to nominate and to work for temperance candidates. All who are over 21. both men and women, whose names are on the Parliamentary Roll, arc entitled to vote at this election. I may also once more call attention to the School Committee elections in April, arrangements for which should be put in train in good time, and not left until after the Convention, when there is little time, and everything must necessarily be hurried. Only parents and householders resident in the district are entitled to a vote, but any individual householders in the district may be nominated as a candidate. Nominations should be in a week before the date of election. MARIAN JUDSON, Supt.
