Delighted with Them

STATE officers of the W. C. T. U. in a number of States have recently written the Temperance Instructor Annual cordial letters, from which we clip the following:—

North Carolina

“I have examined your valuable paper, the Youth’s Instructor, also the Anti-Tobacco number, and am delighted with them. I inclose $2, for which please send me 25 copies of the Instructor, and for the remaining $1 send copies of the Anti-Tobacco number, the latter for free distribution. Our Southland is cursed with tobacco in its different forms, most of all with the cigarette. The Anti-Tobacco magazine is gotten up with such telling effect that I wish to get it into the hands of the boys of our Sunday schools and before the fathers and mothers.”

Ohio

“I wish to give my hearty approval to both annuals, the Temperance Instructor Annual and the Anti-Tobacco number. The numerous illustrations and cartoons make them particularly attractive to young people, and enhance their instructive power. They present up-to-date facts, and the latest scientific truths of these problems. These things presented in story form and in pictures are doubly sure of attracting and holding attention. It would greatly advance the cause of total abstinence and prohibition and diminish the tobacco curse to have these annuals placed in the hands of every scholar in our public schools.”

Maine

“I thank you for the Temperance Instructor Annual and the Anti-Tobacco number of the Instructor. I consider them both excellent numbers.”

“The Annual and the Anti-Tobacco number are both valuable publications. The cartoons are excellent, and the articles suggestive and convincing.”

Pennsylvania

“Many thanks for the Temperance Instructor Annual and the Anti-Tobacco number. I am pleased that you are taking up the cudgel against tobacco. Go on in the good work.”

New Jersey

“I have received both papers, the Temperance Annual and the Anti-Tobacco number. Think them very good. Were I anything of a seller, I should want to help sell them, but I am very poor when it comes to selling anything. If you can get out a better Anti-Tobacco number, I should like to see it.”

Maryland

“The Temperance Instructor Annual is fine, a splendid number, and I wish it could be in every home. I shall recommend it everywhere, and if I find I can dispose of a number of copies, will order some.”

New Hampshire

“I have received the copies of the Temperance Annual and the Anti-Tobacco number, and think them very good, especially the Anti-Tobacco number, which I think would be specially good in Sunday school and public-school teaching.”

Iowa

“The cover page of the Temperance Instructor Annual is very impressive; then as I go on through, from page to page, I find temperance truths presented in a most attractive manner and from such prominent men. The illustrations and cartoons are very good. I think any one reading this from cover to cover, if not already an enthusiast for temperance and a hater of the rum traffic, would surely become such.”

Michigan

“I am pleased to state that in both appearance and contents the Temperance Instructor Annual and the Anti-Tobacco number of the Instructor appear to me to be of the highest class, and would prove to be very beneficial in the fight for decency and sobriety.”

Massachusetts

“In my opinion your Temperance Instructor Annual is an excellent publication, and I was glad to examine it. The Youth’s Instructor Anti-Tobacco number should be in every Sunday school in the land. It is fine.”

Canada

“I want to thank you for the Temperance Instructor Annual sent me some time ago. Please find inclosed 25 cents, for which send me five copies of the Temperance Annual. I am furnishing the material for the W. C. T. U. column in our local paper, and find the Temperance Annual a wonderful help in this. Then I am the W. C. T. U. president for our county, and want to mail some of the papers to the local W. C. T. U. presidents. Will you please send me one of the weekly papers so I can see it? This fall we expect to have a temperance campaign in our province, and shall want temperance literature for that. Hope you will be able to mail the Temperance Annual soon.”
