Gus liquor seller. he said him, "Y the evils
which afflict the community by intemperance-what
shall we do to rid ourselves Of those evlsl This IL
quor-seller frankly replied, "Go on SIR continue in
the course you pursuing and all will be right
But one thing else you must do-provide suitable
amusements for the young-young men must have
recreation, and ifyou do not provide it, they will come
to me for IT.
Mr. Burton said he would take that reply as a text,
and would like have the whole city, and especially
the Christians of the city, to hear his remarks upon it,
He believed there was a want of proper amusements
for the young, and until they provided the evils
of intemperance would continue He would have an
Institute established where every would go and
obtain the recreation necessary for the human system;
not only innocent games now known should be prac-
tsed, but he would put genius to its test TO invent
others. He related many instances which had come

Of hope and promise, who for lack of other amuse-
ments visited the dram-shops and theatres, and had
gone down TO ruin.
Another step requiIed was that of elevating the
taste of young men for literary pursuits.
