A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Dear Father Cologan, You will render a great service by publishing a Catholic Temperance Header. I liave long desired to see a Reader in our public elementary schools which should place before our younger generation a true picture of the dangers attendant upon the use and abuse of intoxicating liquor. The objection often felt to literature of this kind is that it is narrow and one-sided, and that a reaction against it sets in when this is found out to be the case. Let it be fully admitted that alcohol has its place in the pharmacopoeia, like castor-oil and opium, and that therefore it has its use, and may render service to man ;and then there will be no danger of misunderstanding if the terrible dangers that lurk in the use of alcoholic drinks are carefully pointed out. The Catholic Temperance Reader is not one of those sensational and passionate invectives against intemperance which are, by their very nature, evanescent in their effects. It is based upon a carefully marshalled array of facts, and upon testimonies given by all classes of men in public authority. No one will rise from the perusal of this Reader without recognizing that a strong appeal has been made to his reason, to his common-sense, to his conscience.
