MY TEMPERACE dBED
T believe that wine is a , Blocker,
strong drink is raging and vliosoever
is deceived thereby is not Vie.;
I believe it is good neither to eat
flesh nor to drink wine nordo any-
thing, whereby thy brother sttianbleth
or is offended, or is made weak, for
when we so sin against the brethren
we sin against Christ.
T believe that the bible , "'Correctly
translated and interpreted both in
letter and in spirit forbids thntse' of
or traffic in alcoholic beverages.
I believe that the church, which., is
not making war upon the liquor tra-
ffic is untrue to Jesus Christ
I believe that the minister of the
Gospel, who fails by precent and ex-
ample, to take an open stand against
the drink evil is not living upl,to his
privileges and is violating the ; vows
of his sacred office.
I believe that every child has a
right to be well born physically, men-,
tally, morally and that. is impossible
for alcoholic parents to bequeath their
children'an uniinpared birthright.
I believe that the licensing ,of the
liquor traffic with or without :. jiurean
consent, is unscriptural, unethical, un
social, unpatriotic, illogical, immoral,
and indefensible.
I believe that those who from in-
difference, selfishness, cowardice, app-
etite, prejudice or pride, as nothing
against this evil, will share the curse
pronounced upon Meroz, which same
not up to the help of the Lord against
the mighty.
I believe that the drink evil is the
enemy of the home, the chui'ca, the
school and the ballot box and the fri-
end of impurity, irreligion, ignorance
avarice , appetite and anarchy.
I believe that anything while is
the acknowledged. cause of so -much

WHY I AM AGAINST SHE
opio. BAR
I am against the open bar, be,aiuse
it takes all I have and gives' me no
equivalent. 1 step inte a shoe store
andpurchase a pair of shoes; result
my feet are kept warm,. I step into a
clothing store and purchase a silit of
clothes; result my body, is protected
from heat -or cold.
I step into a grocery store and pur-
chase bread, meat„ potatoes, as a re-
sult my body is fed and made strong.
I step into a book store and pur-
chase a good book, result my mind is
fed and enriched.
1 step into a saloon and , take a
drink, as I wish to be r'egarde'd as a
good fellow; I take another. Soon`my
brain is less -clear my hand less steady
and my walk less fins. Soon : my
value as a doctor, lawyer, mechanic,
is lessened, by and by I cease to have
any economic or social value. Fin-
ally I am an outcast and a wandorer
My opposition to the saloon and
the liclnot traffic is simply a matter
of decency and manhood, It is'sinaply
saying that I prefer prosperity to
poverty, sobriety to drtinkeness, and
honesty to dishonesty. It is but an
expression of a preference 'to remain
clean, strong, and manly, •rather than
to become a•brutish bleareyed,. strag-
gling outcast and wreck.

,UTHERAN PASTOR'S VIEWS
Editor Herald:
Since a number of people have
been asking me, myvlews on "The
Canada Temperance Act", I beg leave
very briefly to set forth a few of them
on this, and kindred phases of this
work, such as "Local Option," etc. In
hefirst place I hold, with the church,
that taking a pledge is unnecessary,
but that a Christian should be temper-
ate in all things.
Secondly, that in my opinion even
no prohibitionist considers that Local
Option or The Canada Temperance
Aet is all that is necessary to eradi-
cate the drink evil or drunkenness,
but that it is a step nearer the final
goal, a move in the right direction
'thirdly -That a better and more
satisfactory solution of this problem
would be for our government to enact
a law prohibiting the manufacture
and sale of all alcoholic intoxicants,
excepting such portion and quality as
may be necessary for medical purpos-
es. In which event, parties having'
purchased hotels should not bo made
to suffer financial loss, but justly and
satisfactorily dealt with.
Fourthly, that in case the Canada
Temperance Act carries in Huron
County, as it appears it surely will,
then this con ,unity should purchase
at a fair price, our large hotel and,
under the direction of a competent
leader and his associates, make of it,
what every successful rural communi t y
needs, a centre for our social,' literary
educational and economic needs. That
is, use a part of it for a music and
en'ertainment hali',.farmer's institute
assembly room, library and reading
rooms, gs mnasium, etc; something to
keep our younger generation in our
own locality, and cause thein even-
tually to see the beauty, purity and
strength of an ideal rural community.
Finally, I am convinced that as
far as saloon work and influence is
concerned,(I refer not to orderly holel
work, the only regrettable feature of
which is the bar connected with) that
it causes the spread of disease, social
and private immorality, ruined
homes, pauperized labor, lawlessness
and crime, as well as political corrup-
tion. In view of these sad consequen
ces and facts, it is my moral and civic
duty to doall in my power to help my
weaker and more severely tempted +,
fellow -citizen and brother, to have all
stumbling -blocks and rocks of offence
removed from his pathway, and earn-
estly join with the great apostlePanl,
who said: "If meat make my brother
to offend, I will eat no flesh while the
world standeth, least' I make my bro-
ther to offend" and, "it is good neith-
er to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor
anything whereby „thy brother
stumble&h, or is offended, or is made
weak. For I would nob wish to fall
under the condemnation of my bless-
ed Sat antes words; "whoso shall of-
fend one of these
little
ones which believe on me; it were bet
ter ft:t i=gin, that a millstone were
hanged about his neck, and that he
were drowned in the depth of the
sea."
