A phiIOSOpher writing to the Lie bon (N.

Why does it take-eighteen men 20 minutes to get a calf OR a railroad track, whilea more Spike on a rail will send a. ninety-ton locomotive m- to the dimh?

Owen Smnd is a matter bf no con- cern to their Province? On and after the first day of May. 1906. the sale of intoxicating liquors in that city was by the laws of thin Province prohibited. It is Well known that the law was so satisfuc torily enforced for the balance of that year that the results were quoted eve. ywhere as a reason {of the appli cati-n of the same. law in other ”an; uzipalities. and to such efi'rct that in half a hundred more municipalities it Was adopted last January. Since that time there has been ap purent in Owen Sound the most persistent. deliberate and concprted efl'urt to bleak and defy that. law.

B. MacCallum, Lecturer on Physiology to The Um“ verszty of Toronto: “ The results of careful experiments show that alcohol. taken in diluted form in small doses is oxidized within the body and so supplies energy like common articles of food; and that it is incorrect to designate it as a poison." Professor P. H. Pye-Smith, Lecturer to Guy's Hospital Medical School, London : ‘° Malt liquors. for a large number of people (perhaps for most adults), do more good than harm when taken with meals. Temperance is much better than abstinence." Professor Lafayette B. Mendel, Yale University. New Haven : “ Man is by nature“ a temperate animal, and it is only by distinguishing between temperance and intemperance (i. e. . use and abuse) that the evils of alcoholism can be combated. Present methods fail in this respect." Professor 1'. J. Clouston, Lecturer to The University of Scotland. Edinburgh: “Alcohol is a food. and may in a diluted form (as in beer) be a very valuable adjunct to ordinary foods. by exciting appetite, by improving digestion. and by stimulating'certain nutritive pro- cesses, 13.3., the laying on of fat."

This is not a quarrel between whis- keydrinkers and temperance reform- ers; neither is it a local question aflecting merely the town of Owen Sound; it aflectsâ€"and the result will seriously afiectâ€"the honor of rhe Province of Ontario and the character of its citizens.
