About the Exhibit

This digital exhibit was created by Margaret Reilly, based on a physical exhibit on display in the Frances Willard Memorial Library and WCTU Archives, Evanston IL, curated by Janet Olson and Kate Fowler. 

All documents and images in the digital exhibit come from the WCTU Archives collections. These items  represent just a fraction of the materials in the Archives relating to the Woman's Christian Temperance Union's longstanding work to educate children about the physiological impacts of alcohol, tobacco, and narcotics.
