The Corrupting Influence of Saloons

LET a youth frequent a saloon for one year, though he may never taste liquor, the profane, obscene, and vulgar language there used, the disgusting and degrading allusions which comprise the entire stock of conversation therein and thereabouts, and his very thoughts and imaginations will become so corrupt that he will be utterly unfit for decent society. And yet, Christians declare that to move our saloons by political action is impracticable.—Prohibitionist.
