AM OF TH? SOUTH
February, probably in Memphis, the men
of the Church will be simultaneously
rallied in behalf of the needs of
America.
ThlB will be great patriotic demonstration,
when the social and religious
problems of the country will be
brought to the attention of the churches
by leading men from the North end the
South. Such issues as the negro question,
the mountaineer, the immigrant,
the liquor question, the social evil, all
will find a place on this progrmane.
A Million and a Half In a Month.
This Convention next February will
be the climax of an educational campaign
throughout the denomination
which has already begun. All the boards
and causes of the Church hare combined.
and are conducting educational conferences
in every Presbytery of the
Church. From one to three of theee
conferences will be held in each Presbytery
before next February. In addition,
an entire new set of machinery for
literary propaganda will be created.
The colossal undertaking which the
laymen and the executive commdtees
have faced is that of a simultaneous
every-member canvass of the whole
Church within the month of Mrch, 1913,
in an endeavor to raise within thirty
days the sum of a million and a half
of dollars for all the boards of the
Church. The whirlwind campaign,
which is none the less systematic and
careful for being vigorous, represents
a revolution In modern religious activity.?'News

A VIEW OF AI/COHOL.
By Sir Wilfred T. Grenfell, M. D.
line r anions i.oasx or uaoraaor muslonary.)
Why don't I want to see liquor used
at sea? Because when I go down for a
watch below, I want to feel that the mam
at the wheel sees only one lFght when
there is only one ligt to see; that when
the safety of the ship and all it carries
dependB on the cool head, the instant
resolve and the steady hand of the
helmsman, there is not standing there
in tplace of the man, the poor, debased
creature that all the world has seen
alcohol create?even out of such sifted
men as Burns and Coleridge and hosts
of others.
1 'I have seen ships lost through collision
because the captain had bees
taking a "little alcohol." I have had
to tell a woman that eh a was a widow'
and that her children were fatherless
because her husband, gentle and loving
and clean-living, had been tempted to
take "a drop of alcohol" at sea, and
had fallen over the side, drunk, and
gone out Into a drunkard's eternity. I
have had to clothe children and feed
them when reduced to starvation, be-i
cause alcohol had robbed them of a
natural protector and all the necessities
of life. I have had to vlsdt in prisons
the victims of crime, caused as directly
In honest men by alcohol ss a burn is
cansed by falling into the lire.
Why do I not want alcohol as a beverage
in a country where cold is extreme,
exposure is constant, and physical
conditions are full of hardship?
Simply because I have seen men go
down In the struggle for want of that
natural strength which alcohol alone
had rrobbed them of. The fishermen
' that I live among are my friends, and I
love them as my brother?, and I do not
r think 1 am unnecessarily prejudiced or
' bigoted when I say that alcohol 1? inadvisable,
after one has seen it robbing
hi? best friend? of strength, honor,
reason, kindness, love, money, and even
i life.
During twenty years' experienoe on
3 the sea and on the snow in. winter?on
experience coming after am upbringing
in soft places?I have found that al

co-hol has bean entirely unnecessary.
I here been dootoring tick men and
women of every kind and I hare found
that I can uee other drug* of which we
know the exact action and which we
can control abeolutely with greater accuracy

Just u good results without it, and I
always fear Kb power to create a desire
for Itself. It is not necessary for happiness,
for 'I have known no set of men
happier and enjoying their lives more
than the crews of my own vessel, and
the many, many fishermen who, like
ourselves, neither touch, taste nor
handle it.
I would be willing to. allow that the
manufacture of It gives employment,
that the sale of It la remunerative, that
a desire for it) can be easily created.
Bnt the desire for It has to be "cultivated,"
and once cultivated the "market"
Is certain to open up?for the deeire becomes

podson, Instead of being poured down
men's throat*, it were poured Into the
ocean?where at leaat It would do no
harm.
I have seen men robbed In many
ways, but they have been able, by the
help of Qod, to wipe out any lasting results
of such transient loeeee. But the
robberies of alcohol are irremediable.
I buried In a lonely grave on a projecting
promontory, far down the coast of
Labrador, a young girl of eighteen. She
was some one's daughter and some one's
sister. I had taken her aboard our little
hospital ship for the last week of her
life. 9ho should have been alive to.day,
but she had no desire to live. All that
could possibly make life worth living
for her had been robbed from her
through the means of alcohol, and she
could not face the home-going again.

WELL PEOPLE TOO
Wise Doctor Gives Postum to OonvMescents.
A wise doctor tries to give nature Its
best chance by saving the little strength
of the already exhausted patient, and
building up wasted energy with simple
but powerful nourishment.
"Five years ago," writes a doctor, "I
commenced to use Postum In my own
family instead ot coffee." (It's a wellknown
fact that tea is Just as injurious
as coffee because it contains caffeine,
the same drug found in coffee.) "I was
so well pleased with the results that
I had two grocers place It in stoek,
guaranteeing its sale.
"I then commenced to recommend it
to my patients in place of coffee, as a
nutritious beverage. The consequence
is. every store in town is now selling it,
as It has become a household necessity
in many homas. *
"I'm sure I prescribe Postum as often
as any one remedy In the Materia
Medica?In almost every case of indigeetion
and nervoutnsse I treat, and with
the best results.
"When I once introduced It into a
family, It is quite sure to remain. I
shall continue to use it and prescribe it
in families where I practice.
"In convalescence from pneumonia,
typhoid fevsr and other cases I give It
as a liquid, easily absorbed diet. You
may use my letter as a reference any
way you see fit." Name given by
