WHAT ABOUT MODERATE DRINKING? “All good citizens are in favor of drunkards drinking less; of exces- sive drlnkers being less excessive; of immoderate drinkers being less lmmoderate, but advocacy of mod- crate drinking would increase the crop of immoderates. To promote the idea that the moderate use of alcoholic beverages is desirable and harmless constitutes the most ap- pealing, the most powerful, thc most eflectlve invitation w get people drinking yet devised by any brewer, distiller. wine-maker or bootlegger. A campaign for mod- eration is not one directed to ex- ressive drinkers individually or as a body to drinkers. If that was the program, it might be considered es rendering a service, but it is a general educational campaign set- ting forth moderation as the ideal, a worthy habit, attainable and harmless, to encourage non-drink- ers to drink. It ls a dangerous proceeding unworthy of any Chris- iian leader. 1t tends to encourage and increase drinking among youth. The evil would greatly outweigh any possible or actual conversion of a relatively few immoderates to moderation." —R.ev. It. .1. McIntyre. Vancouver. > GOVERNMENT CONTROL IN THE MARITIMES In 1927 the Governcent Control came to New Brunswick and in 1930 in Nova scotia. At first a great many church people thought this was a terrible thing but now they have come to accept it as the best possible law. Some things can be clearly seen. First. drinking is increasing. As an example of this take the fig- ures for Nova Scotia 1031-1932, sales amounted to $0,767,109.00, or 1,272,345 gallons. In 1936-37 sales amounted to $4,647,064.00 In 1040- 41, $11,448.779.00 0r 3,139,744 gal- lons, and last year the total drink bill was $23,318,477 or 5.666.268 gallons. The same story is true of New Brunswick where last year sales amounted to $16,700,000. The same holds true of the Dominion. continued patronage and 1 am con- fident that he will serve you well. LULU M. TOOMBS. Kensingfon. W. MARNE KENNEDY f? w: IIANOLE ALL rue srsr‘ cums A few years ago sales were less than $300,000,000 but last year it was estimated that about $500.- 000.000 was spent for liquor. The same trend is followed in the Unit- ed States where last year $9.000,- 000.000 worth of liquor was sold. Money spent in the liquor stores cannot be spent for food or grac- eries, and drinking means loss of time which in turn means loss of production. It is useless to argue that money comes back to the province in taxes. for it must not be forgotten that a greaffideal of this is spent to remedy the results of drinking. Thus, lt costs s. good many dollars to support police courts, reformitories and prisons. Others may argue that the liq- uot industry gives employment to many people, but a look at the Canada Year Book \vlll show that other industries employ many more people for the same investi- ture of capital. In i940 the brew- crs and dlstillers had a capital of $122,000,000 and employed 0.500. ' the bakers and candy makers with MARlTiME SOFT COAL, AMERICAN HARD COALS ' and BRIQUETS.

IOROTNY OIX SAYS-- (Continued from Page l All of us have plenty of friends and acquai ‘ t) smonf married cou- ples who sre fine people and technically good husbands and wives. but who haven't even e speaking acquaintance with each other. The friends. SHOULD SHARE OIIIOTIVII husband is absorbed in his business e'nd his golf and his own ‘foe wife has he: interests. her sburoiahercimhsrfrteaas. beverage alcohol do any of these And neither one knows what the other does, or thinks. or feels. And both miss all that marriage should mean. All of this is a matter of common knowledge, and why otherwise > intelligent people do not start out on their wedding way to cultivate common interests is a mystery of human stupidity that cannot be ex- plained. For all of us know that the tie that really binds us closer to others than any other is having the same objective. And if this is true of just friends and acquaintances. it is doubly true of husbands and : wives. . , As long as a husband and wife are working shoulder to shoulder to build up their fortune. they are never borcd with each other. They never find out that they are not united to their soul mates. They can talk shop together. WfilCh ls the most interesting conversation in the world to us sll because it is the topic we put our hearts in. The wife thrills with pride over her husband's achievements. and he thinks she is s world's wonder because she has such an insight into his plans. The wife of a man who literally rose from rags to riches once told me that the happiest time of her life was when she lived in a two- room cottage and washed and ironed her husband's one shirt every night so that he might have s clean one to put on the next day. She said that then she was her husband's companion and confidante and s part of all his plans, nut since he has become so successful she didn't oven know where he was half the time. Just from s practical standpoint it pays every men to interest his wife in his plans and dreams. Many a wife is extravagant because she has no idea of how much money her husband makes and who‘. she can afford to spend. Many a wife ls nagging and fretful and hard to live with because she is jealous of her husband's absorbtlon inhis business. Many e wife is dull comps-y because her husband never reads or studies with her, or shows any interest in her min: to im- prove herself. After ell. the secret of every hsPDy marriage is congenlallty. and that boils down into the husband and wile being interested in the seine ilsions. _ 0+0» oooooeo o oooooo oooooo ooaooooowoo» M4400“ POUlTRY _ _ I WILL REQUIRE s00 m lIEAiIY urns, l.
