Commodore Schley had used that vessel aa

Mr. Roe mentioned Gen. o. o Howard,
Commodore Foote and Sir Henry
Hovelock as men in high position who
had illustrated what he considered to
be implied in the term Association
Man"
Perhaps our local association Of
Worcester never merited greater praise
than when certain members with the
general secretary set out to cleanse
a certain show house where the mana
ger as he said had been ''only providing
what the public demanded" A party
of association men visited the place and
the story of their observations told in
court the next morning effectually
cleared the air in that particular place.
Not a word was found in the city press
except in the way Of commentator
and praise.
Everywhere association men can
and ought to take the uncertain at
titude on the great moral questions of
the day. I do not consider free trade
and protection as moral questions. So
our best members may differ widely
on purely political issues. But we can
present an unbroken front in our deter
mination to curb the drink habit,
though I suppose that in this we should
find ourselves at variance with some
of our European fellow workers, with
whom the liquor question is not so
definitely stated as with us. Our
Methodist friends in their recent
Ecumenical conference in London were
amazed to find that some of the very
best of the English clergy saw no
objection to champagne and beer If not
used to excess, and as for pipe or
cigar why watts the 'arm?" Even
Spurgeon, unquestionably the greatest
preacher of the age, when asked why
he chewed tobacco answered briefly,
ito get the juice" but as we are dis
cussing that standard of life which Is
generally recognized in the United
States we can talk and act accordingly.
Can a man maintain the same
standard in religion, business and poll
tics? Unless he can and does then is
his preaching vain? 1t matters not
not how eloquent are the words of the
speaker nor how thoroughly they are
backed up by Scriptual reference, I'M
less they are accompanied by his own
correct life. The community makes
many demands. There are features of
municipal life that are not pleasant to
contemplate. The best man for a Civ
en- place is not always the one most
DESTROYS of occupying it. If he be a
member of our association it is his
manifest duty to lay aside some of his
objections and to bear burdens which
nature has given him an equipment to
carry.
I'VE have reason to congratulate
ourselves that the present chief exec
utive of the commonwealth owes a
large part of his deserved popularity
