ment—Will the Measure Pass'.'" at a
temperance rally in St. Paul's Metho
dist Episcopal Church. Church and
Sunday school organizations will turn
out in a body for this meeting. Spe
cial temperance music will be sung.
In the regular weekly bulletin is
j sued by the Rev. Robert W. Runyan, '
i pastor of St. Paul's Church, a page
is devoted to the local option question, j
It quotes Governor Brumbaugh as fol
lows: {
"I came to my office unfettered, and
unpledged. I will do all In my power j
to have the local option measure pass." ,
Governor Sialics Appeal
A generai appeal was issued to- 1
night by Governor Brumbaugh to the
entire State to observe Sunday as local
cal option day. His proclamation is in
consonance with the action taken at
last Tuesday's State mass meetings i
! here, when Sunday was thus desig-
I nated.
■ The governor appeals for the pas- |
sage of this economic measure. He I
'asks all ministers, churches and'
church workers generally to use Sun- j
j day as a day of appeal.
I He says:
The business niul professional
men of the Republican party in
Pennsylvania indicated by their
presence in Harrishurg last Tues
day that they want local option.
At one ol' the great meetings In
Chestnut Street Ball a resolution
was adopted, asking the churches
of tlie State to observe next Sun
day, April 11, as local option Sun
day.
This is a splendid thought, and
I hope that, following the demon
stration ol' tlie businessmen, the
church will make another great
demonstration iu favor of the
Williams loeal option hill.
It is particularly appropriate
that next Sunday should be de
voted to work and prayer for local
option. The Williams bill is to Ih>
reported out of committee next
week, and any step which means
so much for Pennsylvania should
be taken only after prayer. .
I trust that every minister in
every church in this great Com
monwealth. wliich we all love so
well, and for whose future we are
working so earnestly, will dedi
cate a portion of this day to for
warding the local option move
ment.
