strong drink, dealt out for money,
is the cause of about all the misery
and crime in the world. Could saloon
keepers, and voters for license, wash
their hands, if one should die by rea-
son of drink bought therein? Rev W.
E. Douglass text was Prov. 4 26,
his subject How shall the saloon be
made less effective in its work of de-
struction among the yOung?" For
any young person the surest thing is
a foundation of good moral princi-
pies. Parental example is a most
powerful cause of good or i'll. The
family cider-barrel, also, has done
most terrible work in creating the APP
petite for drink. If we cannot strike
off the monsters head at one blow,
let US kill him piecemeal. The citi-
zen's duty is to make the traffic con-

to the W. c. T L. and a few verses of
stirring poetry. Rev. M. Kingsbury
spoke on 'That which exalteth a ma
tion," Prov IA: 81 Every civiliza-
tion has had it's evil; the liquor traf-
fic seems to be ours. The burden of
the drunkard upon the community
should be so much stronger than it
now is as to stir the voters to rid
themselves of it forever. Our govern
ment cannot exist half drunk and
half sober The traffic is either. right
or wrong; if right, then all efforts to
suppress it are unjust; if wrong, then
any licensing of it is evil and shame
full Places of innocent amusement
should be provided for young people.
In conclusion, the young ladies were
appealed to. that they do their ut

rial for considerable thought to peo-
pie of all classes.
