Show In Hell Without a Return Ticket The only use wo can think of for a Ku Klux Klan, a Gestapo Ges-tapo or an OGPU in America is work in connection with some results of the infamous liquor traffic. There should be a frequent fre-quent punishment of the following, who appear to be overlook ed by laws and commissions: Those who sell to minors, who daily and nigntly harbor drunks and habitual drunkards, men who are every ther night guilty of druDken driving, men who drink up their earnings and rob their families of food and clothing and kill opportu' i' y for their children There are the worst of all. While the are in the saloons drinking their 'cheer' and making merry and carelessly throwing their dollars to others, their own wives and children are in want and need, sorrowing and suffering and figuring what the man dollars the saloons get would do for their own homes. Many a wife is being killed by the drunkard's drink in a worse way than Mrs Moremeister, and many a child worse than June Nelson, because the agony lasts O so much longer. Shame to the guilty. Here we have hundreds of churches, hundreds of ministers, many groups of the h igh priesthood, sehools on every other block, and hosts of lecturers and radio speakers, and yet we are permitting even hiring the liquor trafic to send hosts of the young and the middle aged to perdition without a return ticket. Jesus is ashamed of all those who make such feeble effort to save the-souls of men from a serpent that walks and is far worse than the one that was cursed in Eden. |
