Why pledge ourselves to temperance Be
cause we consider its opposite as being, in our
day, the principal barrier to the happiness and
prosperity ofour community. Neither church
or State can enjoy success while men " take
an enemy into their mouths to steal away
their brains" The manufacture, sale, and
use Of intoxicating drinks as beverage. is di-
recty opposed to the promotion of virtue. The
Bible, common sense, and all experience show
his plainly.
