The Voice of Temperance
Harry Lauder gave this proud
testimony "No man can be success-
ful and drink". When I started on
the stage somebody said "Well it's
a great life for dissipation :and
drinking." "Well" I said "if there
is any success to be 'had through
being sober and steady I will get it,
and I took a vow that I would not
touch, taste or handle strong drink
of any description."
Harry Lauder won his way to
success and then he realized that
there was even more need for him,
to be sober because he was looked
upon as an example.--Advt.
