JAMAICA, VERMONT.

By R. S. Owen

The organization of a temperance club here has not only been a benefit to our people, who have renewed their interest and zeal in the cause of health and temperance, but it is bringing our work into favor with many who have been very bitter against the cause. Monthly meetings have been held since the organization of the club last December. These have been largely attended by those not of our people, and many have been induced to join with us in the temperance work. At our last meeting, eighteen signed the pledge. I have given a short course of lectures in the village of Jamaica. As the result, six persons have commenced to observe the Lord’s Sabbath.
