I love bears. Not the seven foot grizzlies that chase careless tourists for their picnic baskets, but the manmade fluffy varieties carried by firefighters to calm frightened children after trauma.  The kind teenagers leave on their pillows each day and the kind grandmothers rest their arthritic elbows on as they watch television. Little ones with velvet fur and huge ones with soft bushy fur.

WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN TEMPERANCE UNION IN ALABAMA

(transcribed from; History of Alabama and dictionary of Alabama biography, Volume 2

By Thomas McAdory Owen, Marie Bankhead Owen)

 

The Woman's Christian Temperance Union is a National organization with State and local branches, originating in the great temperance crusade of 1874. A National Convention was called to meet in Cleveland, Ohio, November 17, of that year, at which sixteen states were represented and the organization formed. By 1916 every state and territory in the nation was organized. Conditions of membership are signing the total abstinence pledge and paying annually into the treasury of the local union a sum of not less than 50 cents. Part of the money is retained for local work, and a part is used for auxiliary offices, State, National and World's needs. The total paid membership in the United States in 1919 was about a half million.

by

Jean Butterworth

 

Every mid November I start thinking, “I can’t believe it also most time to get ready for Christmas. Where has the time gone?” Time has gone the past year with the celebration of our favorite holidays, birthdays, vacations or attending work and school. But of course, I love Christmas and the time of year with cold crisp air and sometimes a little snow.
