Newspaper ad vertisements told about cheap whisky available by the barrel orat the bar People travelled from Barrio to Toronto or Orillia by train the news items showed with horsedrawn coaches popular for shorter trips The reports showod little emv phasis given to health warn ings caused by the abuse of alcohol The Sons of Temperance held Simcoe County convention which was reported in another item The papers news item said in part The convention has done much good in Simcoe and we do not believe the brethren would willingly forego the pleasure of meeting together again to consult on the means best adapted to advance the cause for which we are associated as well as to renew the friendly feelings which the meetings have generated AWAKEN IO HORRORS An editorial report said Whatever faults there may be in the past and present modes of working the temperance movement one thing is certain that the upshot of it so far has been to awaken the public to the horrors of intemperance to reduce considerabl both public and private rinking and to save from undoubted ruin very fair percentage of actual drunkards The editorial added cautiously Of course no ublic effort is ever free of aults There will always be something said that it would have been wiser to have left un said something ro sed that cautious minds Will rink back from extreme utterances that ever do more harm than good All this we may expect in the temperance movement as natural consequence of its spreading influence but it should not be iudged by its faults but rather by the un doubted good it has effected SOCRATES VIEW Socrates was quoted in another item as stating in 450 year BC about over indulgence Doth it not rob us of our reason the chief ex cellence of man and incite us to commit the very greatest crime Can he who is im mersed in false pleasure find time to think of thin that are useful Or if he coul is not his judgment so conquered by his appetite that seeing the right plath he deliberately rejects it owever intemperance may Egomise pleasure it can never stow any for this is the gift of sobriety is the virtue alone which places both the body and the mind in the utmost degree of perfection The
