MRS WHEELER AT N.E. VALLEY.
On Wednesday, October 15th, Mrs Wheeler addressed a gathering of women at the NT. Valley, under the auspices of the local branch of the Union. Despite the wet weather, the Young Men’s Institute was crowded. Mrs Don, our National President, spoke warm words of welcome. Mrs Peart, on behalf of the local women, presented our distinguished visitor with a beautiful bouquet. Mrs Wheeler gave an interesting talk on the great problems that had to be overcome before the Slates went dry, and the part the W.U.T.U. took in the struggle for National Prohibition Mrs Wheeler also gave a recitation entitled, “ \ Mother’-, First Baby,” which was an elocutionary trea*. At the close of the meeting Mrs Don spoke to those not already members to link themselve- with this great woman’s organisation, with the result that 13 came forward Mrs Don read the Initiatory Service, and dosed the meeting with the Benediction.
