Disgraceful ISN'T IT?

Who Is to Blame, the Drunkard, the Saloon-Keeper, the Liquor Manufacturer, or—Well, Never Mind. It Might Be Embarrassing to Answer the Question.

IN some places, the sight of a drunken man is only a memory. But what brought about changed conditions? Did the clean, decent element sit back with folded hands and merely shout "Hurrah" when the victory was won?—No, indeed, they did not. They first sensed their own responsibility; and realizing that it was possible to overthrow Demon Rum, they went to work. They talked, and they agitated, and they distributed temperance papers, tracts, and leaflets. Without doubt the latter agency has proved the most effective of all.

Better publications for such a campaign than those listed below can not be found. If your community is still cursed with the saloon, why not arouse your church, woman's club, or other civic betterment organization, to action? Call their attention to these excellent tracts and leaflets, and make an effort. If they fail to respond, why not get a supply, and do your own little part?
