When l see our school boys stunt
ing their growth and drying up their
brains with smoke; when l discover
that their very cigars are soaked in
alcohol and liquors, and that the
boys are baited with beer, and entic-
ed into saloons by music, games and
evil company; when l am told OF
their degeDeracy in scholarship, so
that the percentage of girls who
graduate and who take honors is
steadily gaining on that of the boys
it seems to me that l can not wait
until the schools of my country focus
their splendid light upon the prob
lem of prevention. 1t is a glorious
thing 70 go TO the rescue of wicked
and ruined manhood with the life
boat of reform, but far better to
build a lighthouse on the sunken,
warning the unskilled voyager of his
danger. In the light of ten years
work as teacher of total abstinence
from alcoholic poison, l solemnly
aver that had l the power, our sys-
tenn of education should be so
changed that the course of study for
every pupil, from the kindergarten
fodder to the high school graduate,
should be grounded where God
grounds our very being-on natural
law. They should know the laws of
health, since their physical being is
the firm base of the whole pyramid
of character. The blessed word
health" once literally meant "holi-
ness " and that means simply whole
ness" This body of ours was meant
to be the temple of the Holy Spirit,
but enemies have taken possession of
it and dimmed or well nigh extin-
guished the Shekinah. The alcohol
and nicotine poisons, leagued with
bad food, unnatural dress, bad venti-
lation, and i'll proportional exercise,
are the demons that hold the sacred
