At the close of the regular Sunday
school Temperance lesson at the Cum
berland Presbyterian Church last Sab
bath morning we were favored with, a
short, but very practical and instruc-
tive talk from Mr.. Burney on the evils
and dangers of the co-co-cola and to-
bacco habits. Others gave out some
excellent thoughts along the same
line. This was followed up with two
short but appropriate recitations by
two little girls, one preceding and the
other following the PASTORS sermon.
We need to have the dangers of
these evils shown our young people,
our boys and girls, more frequently.
They need to be impressed. Hear
what the blessed Book says: Eye are
the temple of God, and that the Spirit
of God dwelleth in you. If any man
Tor person. defile the temple of God,
these bodies) him shall God destroy;
for the temple of NGod is holy, which
temple We are" cit is a fearful thing
to fall into the hands of the living
God" Can we not, should we not as
parents, look more carefully and con-
scientiously into the habits of our
children? They are God-given treas
ures, and should we not impress and
restrain them now while we may?
VIII not God hold us responsible for
neglecting to do this? 1t is no I'M
common thing to-day to see the little
boys on our streets smoking the dead
ly cigarette and, little older, chew.
ing. | need not tell you it Injuries the
child mentally and physically; it is a
needless extravaganza, to say nothing
of the filthy habit. Let us as parents,
pastors and grown-up people awaken
from our seeming Indifference to the
best interests Of the children. Now is
the formative period in their lives.
win we use our influence in training
controlling and restraining them, or
allow them to exercise their own
"sweet will?" Mrs. M. E. e.

Never taste liquor because you do
not want to be counted ignorant and

No man will become a drunkard who
stops before he tastes the first drop Of
liquor.
The first glass of liquor is the dear

of DEVILS.
Wheat never grows where seed has

Prohibition in Kansas.

One of our leading dailies contained
a lengthy article, a announcement
against prohibition in Kansas. A
liquor advertisement, and l suppose
paid for at advertising rates, the pur-
pose of which is to educate the South
against prohibition. 1t is certainly
strange that Southern paper not
identified with "the trade" will pub
lish such false statements. That the
enmity of "the trade" is thoroughly
aroused the following from the annu-
al address of the National President
will show:
| The Governor of Kansas says, and
he ought to know, that Kansas was
never so free from Liquor selling as it
is now. There has been some very in
teresting test cases and the prohibi-
tory side has won.
No more forceful example of the
persistent, defiant, bold lawlessness of
the liquor trade can be instanced than
that of the brewers of Missouri, Hi
nois and Wisconsin when with satan
ic cunning they sought in Kansas the
localities having the least sentiment
for the enforcement of the prohibT q
ry law, bought property and creae.5-
agencies for the sale of their bet$iar
the surrounding towns. These i,r a.
cry corporations had no more leAl II
moral right to operate in Kansas u
had a gang of highway robbers =
housebreakers; and it is no worl To-
that the Attorney General of Karl o.
instituted proceedings against tho
in the Supreme Court. The wondelth
however, that they were ever allowiA
to remain as long as they did, but tFus
hour of justice came, and the prohib7l
itory law of Kansas construed by the
Supreme Court compelled them to
dispose of their property or allow it to
be confiscated by the State and to
withdraw all their agencies and es-
tablished concerns from the State.
The following statement clipped from
the Kansas Issue reads we'll: "Since
the judgement of custer against the
Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company,
the Val Blatz company has confessed
Judgment and has obtained leave of
court to pay the cost, dispose of it's
property and withdraw from the
State. The Anheuser-Busch Compa-
ny was disposed to go to the Supreme
Court of the United States on appeal,
but has thought better of the matter,
and has asked for statement of costs
and will pay the same and comply
with the judgment and withdraw

COME ssiOn of a "wet" Man.

One of the thoroughly "wet'
men of Marceline was told that
Cameron went "dry." "Well,"
said he, "isn't that a college
town." eyes, was the answer.
"Well," said the wet man, "we
expected it to go dry"
What does he mean? Saloonists
expect the college towns to go
dry. Why? Is it because intelli-
gence is against saloons? Does
education kill the argument for
the saloon? When men and wo-
men begin to long for education
does the saloon lose it's hold?
Does the saloon depend upon ig-
norance for existence? Why do
the "wets'' expect to lose college
towns?
We admit the charge that COL
lege towns are against the saloon.
Missouri has six State schooltowns
that have voted in the last eight
teen months. Columbia with the
largest school in the state and one
of the largest in the west, Kinks
vile, Fulton, Warrensburg, all
went dry. Maryville, which had
the State school only a year be-
fore the election, went wet by Sc.
Chillicothe with her splendid
private Normal, Liberty with the
William Jewell College of the
Baptists, Marshall with her great
Presbyterian school, Cameron
with the Methodist College, all
went dry. Maryville, where the
school had not been long enough
to create the atmosphere of learn
ing, is the only college town
we can recall that has voted wet
IN recent Gays.
The fact is the school towns are
against the saloon. We thank the
"wets" for calling our attention to
the fact. Why is the college town
against the saloon? For the same
reason that the church is against
the saloon, The school is against
the saloon because the saloon is
against the school al it is against
religion, against good govern
ment,. against the home, the man,
the woman, the child, against
everything that is holy and pure.
1t is against business, against la
Dor and laborer, against God. No
wonder college towns are against
the saioon.-ReU. Petree.

81 have been made a teetotal-
err" said a United States senator
not long ago, "by the sight of the
hangers-on of the average saloon.
Every saloon | frequented had a
clientele of poor wretches, whose
appetite for drink had gotten the
better of them. Many of these I'M
fortunates have still more unfor-
tunate families dependent upon
them. The total aggregate of
these human wrecks is much
larger than the nations standing
army. This is too great a price
to pay for the privilege of what is
known as personal liberty. If l
had my way, | would abolish the
liquor traffic, root and branch. 1t
is the nations greatest curse, and
no amount of specious reasoning
can overturn the sad truth of such
an assertion"
