Lord Roberts Views.
Lord Roberts, regarding the visit OF
the American temperance delegation,
said;
II shall be very glad, indeed, to meet
Mr.. Littlefield and those who are with
him, and give them all the assistance
in my power.
My position on the question of
the use of alcoholic drinks in the
army Is perfectly well known.
It is founded on long expert
ence under all sorts of conditions
am firmly convinced that the evils
which come from the use of alcoholic
beverages so far outweigh any possible
good that, 10 my mind, there can be no
argument as TO the desira bility of total
abstinence, not alone in the army, but
everywhere else
"In the olden times there was an idea
that the greatest bIaCkguards made the
best soldiers on service, and that the
hardest fighting section of the British
army was that comprised of habitual
drinkers The idea IS utterly fallacious
THE characteristics which mark the
best soldiers are Self-COmmand seif-re-
SpecL and high sense of duty. These
characteristics are not, as q rule, found
most highly developed among the drink
