Alcohol causes paralysis of the minute cells which constitute our bodies, fora few minutes at first, but getting worse and worse as the use of alcohol continues. How can a man resist disease when every day he paralyzes the cells which go to make up his body ? The athlete realizes that he will be more fit for any kind of cbntest by abstaining. The business man realizes that his brain will be clearer by ab- staining. The speaker cited a case of He read the familiar story of ‘the Good Samaritan, applying it to the cause of temperance. The parable di~ rides people into three classes-rob- bers, passersby and helpers. I lay the charge of robbery at the door of the licensed liquor traflic. Despicable as are the “robbers.” the passersby are not without blame. It is our duty not to belong to the passersby, but to help. Some will say that both wine and an inn are mentioned in the parable, and isn't that what you are fighting against ? No, we are not figh- ting against the hotel-keeper or the hotel. and they realize that, but ag. ainst that corner of the hotel which makes hotel-keeping disreputable. Wine is no longer a neceésity as a me- dicine. This has been proven con- clusively by medical science. Yesterday at St. Andrew’s Presby-f terian Church the pulpit was occupied . by Rev. R. M. Hamilton at the morn- ing service in the interests of the Ontario branch of the Dominion Al- liance. Mr. Hamilton is an able spea- ker, and fearlessly approached his to- pic from all sides. } There was a large attendance of del- ‘egatee from all parts of the riding, and the proceedings were far from be- ‘ing harmonious. There was sstrong feeling among some of the delegates present that the nomination sham go to some one oth er than Dr. Mason, 90f Fenelon Fallss, who oas been representing the riding for some time past.

I am surprised at the number of men ’who condone profits made or; ques- 1 tionable enterprises. Business men are subject to a disease known as “com- mercial conscience,” Some one will ask what right we have to make peoâ€" ple abstain from the use of liquor be- cause some use it to excess. To be- gin with, the Dominion Alliance does 'not do that. 'Amunicipality is not a ’number of units with no relation one gto another. It is a social community. The majority rules.

Hamil- ton at Cambridge‘st. church in the ev- ening, Mrs. Hitchcox occupied the pulpit at Queen-st. Church in the ev- ening, and Rev. J. B. Kennedy at the Baptist Church. Large congregations 3 attended and the addresses were of‘ an inspiring character. i The Dominion Alliance has success- fully assisbed 442 municipalities out of 822 to win local option, and ama- jority vote was polled in 120 others. Next January will see more added to the 442, as a hundred campaigns are in progress. It is claimed that towns and cities declme when local optiOn is in force, but look at Midland and Orillia, ple should not be afraid to vote for the banishment of the bar. Who are. not with us are against us. It is for- tunate there is another chance coming and then some who stood neutrél be- fore must cast their vote for right. MRS. E. E.
