A Leader During the Prohibition

Frances Elizabeth Caroline Willard:

“Woman's genius for details, and her patient steadfastness in following the enemies of those she loves "through every lane of life," have led her to antagonize the alcohol habit and the liquor traffic just where they are, wherever that may be.”


This is a quote taken from Willard's entire speech that she addressed in the Second Biennial Convention of the World's WCTU and the Twentieth Annual Convention of the National WCTU.
