SELF RESTRAINT NECESSARY.

No one society can do more 10 help the
wage-worker than such a temperance society
as that which I addressing. II is
Of incalculable consequence TO the man him
self that he should be sober and temperate,
and II is OF even more consequence to his
wife and his children; for II is hard and
cruel fact that in this life of ours the sins
Of the man are often visited most heavily
upon those whose welfare should be his one
special care.
For the drunkand. for the man who loses
his job because he cannot control or will
not control. his desire for liquor and for
vicious pleasure we have a feeling OF anger
and contempt mixed with our pity but for
his unf fortunate wife and little ones we feel
only pity, and that OF the deepest and tender
est kind.
Everything possible should be done to en-
courage the growth Of that spirit of sef-re-
spect. seif-restraint, self-reliance, which, IL
il only grows enough, is certain to make all
those in whom II shows itself move steadily
upward toward the highest standard of Am
erican citizenship. II is proud and respon-
sible privilege TO be citizens of this great
seif-governing nation: and each of us needs
TO keep steadily before his eyes the fact that
he is wholly unfit TO take part in the work
of governing others unless can first govern
himself He must stand up manfully for his
own rights: he must respect the rights Of
others; he must obey the law, and he must
try 10 live up to- those rules Of Righteousness
which are above and behind all laws.
This applies just much to the man OF
Kreat wealth as To the man of small means

And as one practical point, let me urge that
