TEMPERANCE FORCES

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY. JUNE 19, 1913

Field Day in Greenfield a Success— Services at All Churches and County to Be Organized.

That the temperance problem is a live one was clearly manifested in Greenfield Sunday by the attendance at the services held in the various churches during the day.

The afternoon service at the Bradley M. E. church was devoted to perfecting a permanent organization allied to the Anti-Saloon League, non-partisan, but militant. The easy victories of temperance reform have already been won— the dearly-bought victories, are ahead. The victories of. the past have been over a disorganized and divided foe. Now the liquor interests of the country are thoroughly aroused, alarmed, united, determined to fight to the last ditch, and are spending almost fabulous sums of money to save their traffic from destruction.

A committee composed of John W. Jay, of Fortville Homer Smith, Fred Havens, Henry Stringer, Dr. C. K. Bruner, M. S. Decker and B. L. Barrett was appointed. This committee is the central, or county committee, with power to organize Hancock county down to the precincts. The purpose of this organization will be to carry forward vigorously three departments of work—publicity, organization and law enforcement. The future well being of the cause depends upon the vigorous, continuous prosecution of the above divisions of work.

The sermons by the representatives of the Anti-Saloon League were well attended. Rev. Madison Swadener spoke in the Christian church in the morning, and in the Bradley M. E. church at night. In both places he made an earnest appeal for the support of all Christian people to arise and exterminate the saloon. He declared it to be un-American and un-Christian says it is a parasite which lives off of civilized society, robbing men of their manhood and blasting their prospects, and blighting the happiness of thousands of homes.

He showed by many illustrations that this is an age of wonderful progress. In every line of activity the world is moving very rapidly. Industrial and educational world, we are making rapid strides and likewise in the moral sphere there is a tremendous awakening. Evils that we tolerated silently a few years ago are now being exposed and corrected. This great moral upheaval is one indication of the forward movement of the race. In this mighty forward movement we are recognizing the fact that only men who are the best fitted are to be the real leaders. The unfit are constantly left behind in the race of life. A man unfits himself for the highest efficiency in these great world movements if he uses intoxicating liquors. The great corporations are now refusing to put men in places of trust if they use intoxicating liquors. It is only the riff-raff of a community that frequent saloons. Man who want to maintain their respectability, keep away from them.

Dr. Swadener told of a young man who went to him for a recommendation. He wrote the recommendation as requested, telling of the young man's good family and of his being a college graduate, and closed it by saying that the young man was a habitual user of intoxicating liquors. The young man protested against the last clause. "Why," said Dr. Swadener, "that is the truth, isn't it?" "Yes, it is the truth, but I don't want those fellows to know it, for if they do, I won't get the job." Dr. Swadener purposely put that clause in to teach the young man a real lesson.

Dr. Swadener told of being present at the Capitol at Washington last winter when Congress passed the interstate liquor shipment bill. The brewers and distillers were there with their money to bribe, and buy, but the temperance sentiment was so strong that they had to give up their fight and go home, and the bill was passed by a big majority. The doctor says this is not a mere little local issue—it is a mighty world movement, and ev-

ery man who wants to do good for his country must get into the fight. In concluding, the speaker gave a pathetic chapter from his. own boyhood days. In their home, which was a poor one, the father was a drunkard. Many times he went to bed hungry when he was a little child. One cold stormy night, when the wind was howling outside, the children cried themselves to sleep for they were hungry. At the midnight hour, he heard his mother weeping. He awoke and heard her saying in a pitiful, sobbing voice, "My poor children, what can I do for them?" I have done the best I can and I can do no more." He said that picture hanged on the walls of his memory and he was determined to use every bit of energy he posessed in fighting the awful evil.

Mrs. Swadener spoke at the M. P. church in the morning, and at the U. B. church in the evening. She spoke in a very pleasing, attractive and earnest manner. She related the vital connection women have had with the history of temperance reform, paying a high tribute to Mrs. Rutherford B. Hayes who dared stand for temperance in the White House, against custom and the ridicule of high officials. She declared she had the same right to rule her household in Washington as she had in Ohio. How much we owe to her noble stand, we cannot estimate, A worthy tribute was paid to the present Chief Executive of the United States and his cabinet.

Continuing, she said, "The women cannot work independently of the men, but all together. The women will sooner or later have the right of suffrage, and they will not be afraid to strike the liquor traffic hard." The speaker said she had not been with her husband on Sunday for a year until yesterday. She lov^dlhe quiet and rest of her home the same as the women of Greenfield, but for the sake of boys like her own, she gladly made the sacrifice.

The close connection between the liquor traffic and the awful white slave traffic was plainly and earnestly told. She related how that recently she rescued a young girl of sixteen, who was on her way to visit relatives in the southern part of the state, from three men, and liquor played its part, figures Wb, £iven ojf the riurQber of thousands ttif jprls istailL^d5 IrcHR Tfew Ybrk within a cprtiain fceribd of time/to pointstoest/aAd not

?^ESIRING to be able to do work in the best possible manner, and, at JA/ the same time, to do it more promptly than it has ever been done in this city\ I have equipped my shop with the safest, most modern and latest machinery that money can buy. With this machine I am able to sew on half soles in the best possible manner. Everybody knows that it damages shoes to nail on the half soles. A Fleming machine sews on half s61es on new or old shoes, good or Dad, wide or narrow. Soles put on by it are as nice as when new. A welt shoe when made in the factory is sewed by the same kind of machine. It should be repaired in the same manner. A common shoe can be nailed or sewed, but when a welt shoe is nailed there is a rough place on the inside. The inside of shoes on which the soles are sewed is smooth. The nails break the welt of your shoe, and in a short time you have no shoes to wear Our machine sews on half soles guaranteed not to rip off. I look after all of my work personally, and stand responsible for it. Call and try our machine work. It does not cost you more than to have half soles nailed on. I use the best guaranteed leather. I want your trade. My prices are reasonable, because I can do the work in the quickest possible manner. I have three machines—one Progressive shoe finisher, one Fleming machine to sew on soles, and one Singer stitcher.. I do the work quick. I make quick sales and small profits—my policy. You can get half soles and heels put on in 20 minutes. I repair rubber boots, and guarantee them not to leak. Work done while you wait.

reached their destination. Have we no part in this temperance fight? The people of Greenfield ought to be ashamed not to have their little city rid of saloons, because of its being the birthplace of the great Hoosier Poet.

Rev. S. P. McNaught spoke at the Presbyterian church in the morning and at the Friends church in the evening. He delivered, in both places, a sympathetic, straight-for-ward, manly appeal that reached everyone. He simply stated facts, but in such a clear, forceful way that they sunk deep into the hearts of the hearers without a rankling sting. He said the temperance people were in better position to carry on the work than they had ever been before. That the business men all over the county were beginning to see the effect that the! saloon had on business, and that,

narily they would receive because it had gone over the bar. He clearly showed how recent legislation had been in favor of temperance reform, making it impossible for liquor to be legally shipped into dry territory. He pointed each argument with vital illustrations that could not be misunderstood. He concluded by telling of a young man in Terre Haute, who was reformed when he saw how vitally the habit affected his own home life. It was a heart-reaching appeal, delivered by a man who is a fighter in a righteous cause from the backbone.

The day \vi)l be one long to be remembered by Greenfield and Hancock county people, and its effects will be far-reaching for good.
