Excerpt from Women Torch-Bearers: The Story of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union In writing The Story Of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, the historian could include only such names and statistics as are needed to make the account graphic and helpful. Principles and facts are emphasized that the oncoming generation may catch the spirit of the marching mothers Of the Crusade and realize the high historic points Of the national and international growth of the Wom an's Christian Temperance Union. One of the outstanding results Of the education, agitation and organization of the vvoman's Chris tian Temperance Union, from Crusade to Jubilee days, is the steady growth of public opinion in support Of the fundamental principles of total abstinence for the individual and prohibition for the state and nation. Hence, it is essential to the history of the W. C. T. U. That high authorities in science, social economy, the church and the govern ment should be cited. This is as joyous a feature Of the story Of fifty years as is the victorious culmination in the writing of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Amendments.
