Woman's Temperance Publishing Association

The Woman's Temperance Publishing Association (WTPA) was a non-commercial publisher of temperance literature. Established in 1879 in Indianapolis, Indiana during the national convention of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU), it was a concept of Matilda Carse, an Irish-born American businesswoman, social reformer and leader of the temperance movement.
Its weekly newspaper was named ''The Signal'' and its first issue appeared January 4, 1880; it was 16 pages in size. The first editor was Mary Willard, mother of Frances Willard, the second president of the WCTU. At the end of the first year, there were 3,200 subscriptions. Eventually, readership reached over 90,000 subscribers.〔 It employed 135 people.〔 "Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth" was the newspaper's motto.
In 1882, ''The Signal'' merged with ''Our Union'' of New York to become ''The Union Signal''. In addition to the newspaper, the WTPA published article reprints called "Timely Talks". After consolidating its "Illinois Workers' Leaflets", "National Leaflets" covered instruction in departmental work.〔 ''The Oak and Ivy Leaf'' was written for young women, ''The Young Crusader'' was for children, and there were also several books. The Band of Hope Lesson Manual was published as a quarterly.
The WTPA was designed as a joint-stock company and operated in Illinois. No man could own its stock,〔 as it could only be sold to WCTU women.〔 It began with $5,000 of capital stock, which increased to $125,000. The Board of Directors consisted of seven women, including Carse. The WTPA was dissolved in 1903.
