The Voice Of Temperance the North American there are about as i as people. Suppose year $200,00'0,000 promoting a commodity On tin ent cattle every spent _ _ ________ that had made 7,000,000 cattle diseased and increased the num­ ber of incurable animals by 250,- OOiO'.a year, what would cattle­ men say? What would the Gov­ ernmental agricultural depart­ ments have to say? Yet that is exactly what the highly colored lavish liquor advertising is help­ ing to do to human beings. Look over those statistics again. They present a grim picture Of modern drinking. It is not exaggerated in the least. Alluring advertising is definitely encouraging the drink habit. Why not ask oitr Government at Toronto to apply a little of their liquor revenue to advertising the harmful effects of liquO.r drinking? We already have 30,000 alcoholics in Ontario. Twenty-tivo Clinics for the treat­ ment of alcoholics are being set up in Ontario by the Government, This is admirable SALVAGE Work. What about at least an ounce of prevention through ad­ vertising?
