MISS KEARNEY LECTURES.
The auditorium of the Methodist
church never held a more apprecia
tive or attentive audience than on
Sunday evening when Miss Belle:
Kearney for more than an hour held j
their keenest attention. Preceding
her talk a community choir, under
| the diiection of Mrs. Reamey, ren-j
| dered patriotic songs and hymns.
The choir was composed of singers
from various churches and did splen
j did work. Miss Kearney is a woman
j of national fame, working in the in
terest of women in the temperance
cause, at the ballot and along all re
[ forms. Her subject Sunday evening
! was “Woman’s Part of War Endur
ance.” Her visit to the European
countries now at war and her enter
tainment by the crowned heads of
those countries made her talk all the
more interesting and one of the best
ever heard here.
Miss Kearney’s platform career
was begun soon after meeting Miss;
Frances E. Willard. She entered the i
work of the Great Reform, to which !
that matchless leader had consecrated |
her talents, and was at once chosen to ‘
fill important offices. She was
crowned with piomotions. These
found their culmination in the recep
tion of a cablegram from England in
W'
viting her-to speak at an interna
tional convention, to be held in Lon
don. While there, she was commis
sioned to go around the globe in the
interest of the world’s work. Most
distinguished attentions were paid
Miss Kearney on this, her first visit
to Europe. She was the guest of
Lady Henry Somerset, at Reigate,
Surrey, and in London; and was of
fered the hospitality of Eastnor Cas
tle, and of Lady Henry’s home in
Switzerland. Before returning to
America, an extended tour through
many countries, was accomplished.
