Its intricate details and elegant typography speak volumes about the dedication and commitment required to attain such recognition. Sister Marjorie Barnard's name proudly adorns the document, symbolizing her personal triumph over temptation and her unwavering support for temperance ideals. In 1937, joining a temperance society like the Independent Order of Rechabites was not only an act of personal conviction but also a way to contribute to societal change. These organizations aimed to educate individuals about the harmful effects of alcohol consumption while fostering camaraderie among members who shared similar values. This print serves as both a historical artifact and a reminder of how social movements have shaped our communities throughout time.
