in his lecture on Good Citizenship and

The lecture was given at Odd Fellows

sized audience.
He placed the liquor question as the
most important problem the world has

more rapid progress than any reform
the world has ever known. In justifica-
ton of this statement he pointed out
the opposition of the church, science.

traffic.
