SUPERINTENDENT'S LETTER.

If any local Superintendent of Notable Days is wondering how best to celebrate July 27th, my advice to such an one is, get together as many Union members and friends as possible and read to them an article which appear'd in the “White Ribbon” number of July 19th, 1915. The article referred to is a sketch on the life and career of Mr T. K. Taylor, that great and noble man, who, having the courage of his convictions, dared to stand out boldlv for Temperance in New Zealand in the earlv days of the movement, when prohibition was not the popular thing it h is since becom rt —the man who consistently championed th n cause of women, and helped them to take their rightful place in the civic and political hfe of their country. Mr Taylor’s work '-hould never be forwotten by the women of th'* W.C.T.U., who owe so much to his efforts on their behalf, and no one could read this paper (which was written for the Christchurch Union, and read on his memorial dav iust prior to the last licensing poll) without fueling inspired to fresh effort to rid the Dominion of the body and soul-dcstiov-ing curse of strong drink, and to do his or her best for God, Home, and Humanity. Unions, nlease remember Tulv 27th, T. K. Tavlor Dav. W. C TOYFS Dominion Sunt. Not ible Days. Ngnere, Ist July, 1918,
