DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE
DlsouALlFlcATlons FOR DRINK.

Intoxicating drink disqualifies. From
what? From almost everything that
requires reason, talent and effort. Men
who pay for labor or for effort recog-
nize the disqualifications of drink
almost as clearly as they recognize
the disqualification of bad health. The
man who needs stimulants to per-
form his work confesses to his evil
dent weakness. The free horse is
more desirable than the one that re-
quires the whip before he will work.
The necessity of the stimulant and OF
the whip increases with use or habit.
This is evident. Public service cor
porations realize the drawbacks Of
drink and legislate against the users.
A railroad in Chicago lately posted
the following notice:
mo employee is allowed to use
liquor in any form when on duty, and
no employee will be allowed to work
when there is any indication that he
has used liquor in any form before
coming to work, and the smell of
liquor about him will be sufficient.
Employees who are noted as having
used liquor when on or off duty, or
who are found to frequent saloons
when off duty, will be deemed
habitual users of liquor and are sub
ject to dismissal from the service.
Employees who go into saloons when
on duty in any capacity will be dis
charged"
This is not an isolated case. 1t is
a policy in force on all the lines that
enter Chicago, and that enter other
| cities, for that matter. There are
many manufacturing establishments
and stores and shops that adopt the
| same policy. The policy may not be
published, but they all have the
dead line" established in practise.
The breezy agent, drummer, engi-
neer, clerk, and so on, who needs
stimulants to smile and to work and
to think, are soon numbered among
the missing and the dead in the
battle for business success. There
are not many of the "old guard" left
on the field, and none of them are
selected to lead charge. Eye
| openers" "bracers," and might caps"
| ought to be discarded by those who
enter the race to win. No one goes
to the saloon to look for men reliable,
strong and alert. A steady hand and
clear head are not the products of
the bar. "He drinks is a whisper
that upsets many a young mans pros
poets.

not assess for weekly benefits, but
it will safeguard position and health,
and assure dividends in responsibility

STOP DRINKING.

To stand at bar and buy alcohol
promiscuously for row of acquaint-
,ances is not a sign of thrift or true
manifestation of friendship. But the
whole question of intemperance is d
question Of character. Many a sOdden
drunkard has not been open-handed or
generous. There are stages of intoxi-
cation in which any victim is pos
sessed by the desire to give away
his money. This is also a recogniz-
able symptom of forms of insanity.
Much treating, to be sure, leads to
intemperance. But with the treating
habit wholly abolished, intemperanCe
would still exist. Stop drinking, if
you have the habit. If you have
escaped the habit do not form it. That
is the best advice to give the young
man who goes out much in the world.
1t is getting to be the fashion nova
days not to drink. Be fashionable.

Part Of the outgoing current will be

An ex-priest, accompanied by
his wife caused near-riot in
Duluth recently during a lecture
on politics Disguised as Rclig-
ion" Even decent ProteStants
who may be tempted to attend a
lecture Of this kind become dis
gusted with the palpable falsity
of the statements made by such
lecturers regarding the Catholic
Church and hef institutions. Year
by year it is becoming more diff
cult for these "ex's" to gather in
sufficient shekels from the dupes
to make the game worth playing.
They know they are lying and
their hearers are soon convinced
of it. Religious intolerance may
tolerate them for time, but even
i'll the most benighted districts OF
the country there is evidence OF
a change Of heart. 1t is the
natural reaction against barefaced
calumny.

while the organization is willing

is not willing that all should

AN EVANGELICAL" ASSO-
CITATION.

1t is a well known fact that the
Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton, no less than its sister organ
ization, the Young Women S Chris
tan Association, tries to keep in
the back ground the article Of it's
constitution which pledges it to
the promotion of evangelical
Christianity. The constitution
under which it operates was
adopted at the International Con-
vention held in Portland, Oregon,
in 1869 One of it's articles-the
most important from the point OF
view Of the general public
provides that only those "who are
members i'll good standing of
evangelical churches" can be
members Of the association and
enjoy the right to vote in execu-
tive session and TO hold office.
This provision debars Jews, Unita-
rians, Christian Scientists, Cath
olics,- and persons without any
church utilization from active
membership in it's ranks, and
from any official voice i'll it's direc-
ton.
No one denies that an organiza-
ton has the right to make laws
for its own government and the
guidance of it's members, as well
as to prescribe the conditions
for utilization with it; but, having
done that, it should be consistent,
and not try to inveigle any one
into it's ranks under false pre-
lenses. This the Y. nj. G. A. does
whenever it issues general in
vitation to the public to become
members, and makes an appeal for
contributions OH the strength of
it's alleged unsectarian or non
religious character. If it would
accompany this appeal with q true
statement about its essentially
evangelical character then those
who do not see eye to eye with ii
i'll religious matters would have
no one but themselves to blame il
they were ignorant of the facts OF
the case.
From time to time certain off
GERS of the Y. M. G. A. have urged
the removal Of this Evangelical
test" from the. constitution i'll or.
der that all persons, otherwise
eligible, may aspire to office and
help direct its activities; but the
only answer given to their efforts
has been a reaffirmation Of this
feature such as was given at thu
International Convention of the
organization recently held IL
Cleveland, Ohio. At that meeting
it was commended by some that the
| Y. M. G.. A. movement should nc
longer be restricted to those who
profess an evangelical" creed
but should be broadened. to EN-
brace men of all denominations
The discussion terminated with
the adoption of the following
resolution:
That the recommendation oil
the commission of five which was
adopted by the Cincinnati conven
ton be construed as recurring ON
training agencies to see to it thai
every member of the faculties
is not only a member III good
standing Of an evangelical church
but is possessed of such personal
Econvictions on the Fundamental
evangelical positions and such
sympathy with the brotherhood
as are necessary for his equipment

Aside from the local aspects of

Aside from the legal aspects of
the case the attorneys for the Sis
tiers condemned the law Ill as
much as it took away from the
negro the influence and instruc-
ton which was to make him a
good citizen.
Judge Gibbs took the case under
consideration and finally handed
down a decision declaring that
the law under which the Sisters
were arrested was unconstitu-
tional. In his decision, Judge
Gibbs upholds the rights and lib
critics of the people under the
constitution of the United States
to follow any lawful calling; he
declares teaching to be d lawful
calling, and states that no law can
refuse to allow a superior race. to
teach an inferior one and lead it
in paths of truth and righteous
ness. He holds that private
schools which do not receive one
cent of aid from the state do not
come within the provisions Of this
act which is grossly unconstitu-
tional and interferes with private
rights of individuals and proper
ties.
Judge Gibbs sums up his eX-
haustive study and investigation
Of the law, which he declares is
void as to private schools, III the
following words:
ga study Of the act and the
authorities convinces me that
Section / of Chapter 649O, Laws
Of Florida, 1913, if construed to
apply to private schools, is void
as to such schools because its
operation, SO construed, would
tend to prevent no offense or evil
or to preserve the public health,
morals, safety or welfare; that it
is an invasion Of the rights secured
by the fundamental law in that
it amounts to class legislation, de-
priving teachers of privileges
which are not denied to any other
class of citizens, and it violates a
liberty guaranteed by the Consti-
tuition, to-Wit: the right Of the
citizen to be free in the enjoyment
of all Of his faculties and be free
i'll the use of them i'll all lawful
ways when they do not infringe
upon the equal rights Of others.
1T appearing to the court,
therefore, that the law i'll question
upon which the prosecution was
based i'll this case does not apply
to private schools, and that, there
fore, the petitioner is illegally
restrained of her liberty, a formal
order will be made discharging
the petitioner from custody"
This decision has been greeted
with applause by the best class OF
people i'll Florida, irrespective OF
religious considerations. They
were not in sympathy with the
movement, inspiredaby anti Catho
lie bigots, which resulted in the
arrest Of the Sisters. They fell
that the honor Of the sovereign
State of Florida had been be
smlrched and they rejoiced that
the decision handed down by
Judge Gibbs restored the harmoni
out relationship between it's legaI
enactment and the constitution oil

is a great blow to the bigots who
were behind the outrage perpe.
trated on the teaching Sisters
but 1T is not probable that they
will profit by the reprimand that
has been administered to them
Something more than this is neces
sary to purge Florida Of the
rampant bigotry manifested dur.

OF the State.

TIME AND WASTE SAVER.

Not only is time saved and waste
eliminated but absolute accuracy is
assured and possibility of accident
reduced to a minimum by an invention
of F. R. Harper for measuring and
delivering gasoline which is now in
use at his garage on North Fulton
street.
The invention consists of an ar
rangement whereby a pressure of all
from the compressed air tanks used
for initiating tires is kept on the un-
derground gasoline tank forcing the
gasoline through a specially con-
structed meter which accurately mea
sures the gasoline. Fifty gallons Of
gasoline was delivered in exactly fou1
minutes. Mr.. Harper is prepared tc
install similar plants for others.
