The Shadow of the Bottle: Published in the Interest of Nation-Wide Prohibition of the Liquor Traffic - Couverture souple
Présentation de l'éditeur
Foreword THIS book is issued for a definite purpose. It is designed to aid in making the map on the opposite page wholly white, by removing the shadow of the bottle from the homes and hearts of men. This map and the statistics in this book, while very enlightening, soon fall behind the truth because of the onward march of the prohibition movement. They do, however, furnish some effective ammunition for the firing line. Much of the matter and many of the most telling cartoons have been compiled from the annual Temperance numbers of the Youth s Instructor, which for several years have played an important part in the prohibition campaigns in many of the States. This compilation has been made in response to an urgent demand from temperance workers who have appreciated these annual issues and have used them extensively. These stories, statistics, and cartoons should contribute toward making the voter, the saloon keeper, Uncle Sam, and the devil as well, ashamed of themselves for the part they play in this traffic in the souls of men. It is sent forth with the earnest prayer that God will give strength to every arm stretched forth for its circulation, and send a conviction of duty to the heart of every reader. THE PUBLISHER.
