Our Gethsemane.
That is the lesson for us. Few who
have reached the age of maturity have
not passed through a Gethsemane
which has left it's mark upon their
soul. When we come to the "oilpress,"
there we must decide between following
Gods will or our own. AS we think of
Gethsemane, we recall the other gar
den with which the scriptural story
begins-Eden. In these two are
summed up Gods relations to man.
Eden, the beautiful, yields the fruit of
self-will; its spirit is disobedience and
defeat.
Gethsemane, so full of darkness and
gloom. yields the fruit of obedience
and victory. However theology may
state it in various eras. the root of all
our trouble is that cultured in Eden.
It is the battle Of the upward and
downward tug; the self in us as OPP
posed to the God in us. Our Geth-
semane will be just what we make 1t.
We must remember that Christ was
able to say on the cross. Father. into

The great argument against prohibi-

in some cases it must be admitted that
is at least partially true: but what is
the record in states where prohibition
has been adopted.
The advocates of the saloon con-
stantly assert that prohibition has fail
ed in the localities where it has been
tried. But there is some very strong
testimony on the other side of this
question.
North Carolina is a prohibition state
The governor of that state is credited
with saying that the state has pros
pered as never before under the pro-
hibition law.
A senator from that state writes
under date Of August 26. 1914. as fol-
lows:
"I am glad to state-and I do SO I'M
hesitatingly-thatc comparatively state

likely to occur when there is not a
well sustained public sentiment be-
hind the law.
When statewide prohibition has been
preached by years of education and
agitation you will find, as stated by
the prominent men of North Carolina.
that prohibition has brought the most
beneficial results.
Prohibition does not prohibit salts
factorily when it is not sustained by
the general public sentiment. When it
is, the good results following it will
insure a continuance of the law.
In Tennessee all three of the political
parties have declared for a continuance
Of prohibition. In Kansas it is claimed

rest its repeal, and the same is claim

The arguments against the right to
enact prohibitory laws concerning the
whisky business have not had much
weight with the judges Of the courts
Of the land.
More than half Of our country, both
in area and population, is under prohi-
billion.
Sentiment in the country is growing
rapidly against the power of the dis
tiller, brewer and their agents, as it Is
exerted in politics, city. state and ma
tional. and in the south notably the
temperance people have been sweeping
everything before them.
This indicates that a sa1oonless
nation is possibility Of the future.
Aside from religion. which is event.
