that the» prohibition aormon or loc-
turo of today in delivered with as
groat a manifestation of assurance of
being occupying an abaolutoly in-
controvertable position hs was tho
sermon or temperance lecture of a
third of a century ago.
Whether moral auaaion and grace
or leglalation is tho botter plan. I am
not prepared to state nor would Γ
say if I know for nom* one would
be aure to call mo a fool or very
wicked If 1 crossed his views on tho
subject. I will however venture to
state fTitff ! would almoin h# -wlUIng

temperance lor turc or sermon with
politics loft out of It. An 1 fear thin
privilege may not lie accorded me I
think I shall prepare n lecture of
my own anil If I do will probably
turn It loose on an unsuspectIng pub-
lie without money anil without
prlre.
What I started out to tell in the
beginning was that I attended a pic-
ture show Saturday. Λ patient long
suffering wife was bent over the
wash tub and a drunken husband
arousing from slumber went to her
and forced her to surrender her
small earnings to gratify his thirst
for drink I have not the time to tell
all of the scènes but she bnd lo flee
from htm and found an asylum with
the Halvntlrtu Army Finally hi· wan-
dered Into their barracks and was
reclaimed Ills sahHtlon and recon-
ciliation with his rtiuch abused wife
made my eyes run water aniY caused
me to go back I ο those good old
ν «1 "Γ Jtl and manhood were
atTTWmTimf So I hnVe ftffh fuel-
ed by circumstance to Inflict the
above on my readers. I am partial to
old time religion and not the statu-
tory kind and cannot help It no
please forgive me If 1 am wrong; for
1 have tried only to write history..
One of the most touching InoldeiWn
In hlatory I Ihlnk Is the clrcumstah-
ces attending that Interview between
Christ and Mary Magdalene. I like
that self eonscloiiHness of .parity
that will prompt one to reach down
and raise a fallen one place ft pro-
tecting arm about him ami lead him
Into ways of pleasantness Somehow
I believe the Salvation Army comM
nearer emulating the nxamjtle jot
our great Wider Brother In that re-
Hvect than any of us. '"Tls ||ie old
time religion. It was good for Paul
and Silas. It is good enough for
ine."
Monday and Tuesday were such
cold days that people were not stir-
ring much. 1 came to Forreston Mon-
day night and stayed at the residence
of that widow filled up on hash and
biscuit Tuesday morning good home
made hash Is hard to beat. Tuesday
night I spent with Flavins Daven-
port and family. It ι» η good placr to
slay for there Is always something
to cook and Mrs. I) and her daugh-
ter know how lo mix and cook. Fla-
vius showed me his cold utorngc
where he says he can save meal at
any time. At Howard T. M. Utile
was busy at Ills store. \V. .1. Rogers

awhile before Christmas I promised'
not to tell what .1. M. llrookshlro
was doing but did not agree not to
