Temperanca Education For Children

The following are some of the points
agreed upon by scholars as the standard
for the temperance textbooks to be in
troduced in the public schools of New
York under the laws passed through the
efforts of Mrs. Mary l.. Hunt If this
new education is to give to the world a
coming generation of intelligent total
abstalners, as we expect, its manuals OF
instruction must conform to the follow
ing specifications:
They must teach with no uncertain
sound the proven findings of science, viz:
That alcohol is dangerous and seduc-
tive poison.
That beer, wine and cider contain this
same alcohol. thus making them danger
GUS drinks, to be avoided, and that they
are the product of fermentation that
changes food to poison.
That 1t is the nature of little Of any
liquor containing alcohol to create an
appetite for more, which is SO apt to be-
come uncomfortable that the strongest
warning should be urged against taking
that little and thus forming the appetite.
They mus teach also the effect Of
these upon the human system"-that
Is, upon the whole being-mental, moral
and physical. The appalling effects Of
drinking habits upon the citizenship Of
the nation, the degradation and crime
resulting, demand that instruction here
should give clear and emphatic utter
ance to the solemn warnings Of science
on this subject.
