THE ARMY CANTEEN.

There are two classes ui iutcmprr-
ate people in the wOrld-hard drinkers
and wrong thinkers. All thoughtful
men havca compassion for both class
eS - for the trouble and sorrow which
the hard drinler entails upon his
family. and for the widespread trouble
brought about by the incorporate
words and acts OF wrong thinkers.
The wrong thinkers, who 10y their
incorporate speaking and iutrmpcr-
ate action. have driven the soldier to
seek satisfaction for a normal craving
in undesirable places away from mil
itary control, are responsible for re-
suits which causes deep concern to
those who have the best interests OF
the army at heat.
We may learn much from the prac
tee of the Master who. while always
coun>ellng moderation. never forbade
the use of any of His gifts in proper
moderation. With this in mind,
temperance may be defined as a law
of God, prohibition as regulation of
man, and the proper proportion must
always be observed between the two.
You can never leglslatc men into
morality, and this whole question
of temperance and prohibition is Il
moral question. lived for some
years in a so-called prohibition State.
where the small town in which ! lived
had more drinking places in proper

evasion of the law in this community
had very bad effect upon the moral
tone, and produced condition of
practical law breaking and attendant
hypocrisy that were demoralizing to

A false issue had been presented to
our people which may he styled the
new prohibition. " The church stands
for the old Temperance. Weldon t find
the precepts of the Bible. nor the acts
of Christ. tending to such an extreme.
The most complete argument
against prohibition is that it does
not prohibit. This has been the eX
perience of the army, IN experience
which is valuable and pertinent in
this connection. because our army is
composed of average men taken from
the working classes, and the results
of eight years tests prove that the
adjustment of the canteen an aboli-
ton which met with the overwhelm-
ing disapproval of not only the sold
iers, but their superior officers. was
a most unfortunate mistake.
On the other hand, regulations do
regulate The canteen when happily
enforced did meet the natural re-
quirements of the army and was the
best possible solution of this question.

from nervous prostration, when her
husband returned. going to the

Strickland came to this State and
