Alcoholic-Liquor Is Life’s Greatest
Destroyer, Says Temperance Report
The following report on temper
ance and public morals was given by
T. C. Henderson at the Transylvania
Baptist association held at Pisgah
Forest last week, and by vote of the
association for request that same be
published in The Transylvania Times,
is herewith given:
TEMPERANCE AND
PUBLIC MORALS
In the consideration of this topic,
we must inevitably consider the age
old question of the effect of alcoholic
liquor. ,,
It is well known and established
that alcoholic liquor is the greatest
destroyer of public morals, the
enemy of every good. It creates and
increases sorrows and makes them
harder to bear. It blights the lives of
the young, takes from middle age
■ambition and hope and robs old age of
ita serenity and peace. It is the thief
of character and turns men into mon
sters and women into harlots. It in
vades the ballot box to corrupt it and
weakens the administration of justice.
It is the polluted stream which min
gles with the current of public af
fairs, corrupting public morals and
poisoning all it touches.
Christianity honors and dignifies
the human body which is the habita
tion of God, the vehicle of the mir.d,
the instrument of the Holy Ghost,
and is finally to be conformed to the
body of his Glory. Alcoholic liquor
degrades the body and defiles the
temple of the living God. It has de
stroyed more lives than all the wars
known to history. More homicides are
directly chargeable to it than any
other one cause. It shortens human
life, and the man who goes deliber
ately to the grave prematurely as a
willing victim of strong drink is as
truly guilty of suicide as though he
had fired a bullet through his brain
or driven a dagger into his heart.
The late Cardinal Manning »»<“>
“I have lived in London thirty years
and have learned some things, the
first of which is this, that there is
nothing so destructive to the spiritual
life of man as the persistent use ot
alcoholic liquor.” Alcoholic indulgence
hardens the heart; as Robert Burns
said concerning another sm, ‘It
n-vdens the heart and hardens a
within.” The end is a drunkard's
grave and a drunkard’s eternity.
Alcoholic liquor has a direct evil
effect on the mind. Directly and in
directly, alcohol is responsible ior
anywhere from one-third to iwo
thirds of the mentally deficient and
crazy people on earth.
No nation ever rises above its aver
age home life. Without the sanctity
and strength of the family it would
be impossible to perpetuate eithei
| civilization or the Christian religion.
Drink is lesponsible for more broken
family life, for more de-humangzed
Institute, is visiting here this week.
Miss Esther Hamilton is also home
for the week.
Mrs. J. J. Gray and daughters of
! Etowah spent Sunday with Mr. and
Mrs. 0. S. Gray at Pleasant Grove.
husbands, for more debauched
womanhood, for more defective and
Mpies3 childhood than any other evil
known to the modern world; and it
is gravely imperiling the morality,
the thrift, tho joy. as well as the
spiritual and eternal destiny of its
helpless and unhappy victims.
' The Church stands against all
forms of alcoholic liquors, because it
is impossible to Christianize. and al
coholize a citizenship at the same
time. By common consent alcoholic
liquor is the first and worst foe of
the Christian church. Our fight
against alcoholic liquor is simply one
aspect of the age-long conflict
between right and wrong, heaven and
hell, God and Satan.
Tile Bible contains me onty in
fallible standard of truth and conduct.
It is the final critic, the one true
touch-stone of motive, method and
permanent victory. In proportion to
our fidelity to the Bible will be the
measure of permanent victory com
ing to the temperance cause. Temper
ance, when used in reference to in
toxicating liquors, means total ab
stinence. The Bible demands total
abstinence on the part of the priest,,
the Nazarites, the Rechabites, kings
and princes, and rewards these rep
resentatives of tribal, religious and
national life with such special bles
sings as clear vision, moral dignity
and safe leadership. In proverbs the
doctrine of total abstinence is as
definitely demanded as it is possible
to express in human words,
i The Bible teaches that alcoholic
drink is responsible for poverty and
i shortens human life. It is depicted
1 as a pickpocket, a thief and a robber;
and is associated with deception,
J mockery and violence. Deception is
! the first quality of alcohol. It makes
the fool think himself a Solomon, the
j weakling a giant, the pauper u prince
land a, millionaire. Jeremiah holds it
! responsible for insanity and moral
i madness. In speaking of Baby.on,
| which went down through drink, he
says, '‘The nations have drunken ot
her wine, therefore the nations are
! mad.'’ Habakuk declares that it
■ - Hu f*rinu> and anarchy.
1 The Bible is the first book to ue
I clare alcoholic liquor as a
' Mcdern medical science in its bold
! declaration that “alcohol is not a
1 food, but a poison,” is simply coming
'up to the Bible, which declared three
! thousand years ago that “their wine
jis as the poison of asps. In his let
1 ter to the Gallatian?, aJsq tXL£ Cor
! inthians, the Great Apostle defimte
, ly declares that “no drunkard shall
1 inherit the Kingdom of God.”
The Bibie also in Isaiah associates
strong drink with greed, depraved ap
f petite, sacrilege, morsl blindness,, per
, verted judgment, injustice, shame,
desolation, captivity and national
'• overthrow. .
I Respectfully submitted,
T. C. HENDERSON.

CHEVROLET
MASTER SIX
SEDAN
MANY people find it a good
plan, when buying a car, to
consider first what it does to make
motoring more enjoyable; next,
what it costs to operate; and last,
its price. Proceeding thus, you find
that ‘ Chevrolet alone combines
Knee-Action, Body by Fisher, a
valve-in-head engine, and cable
controlled brakes—definite addi
tions to motoring pleasure. Further
investigation reveals that owners
say a Chevrolet saves on gas, oil,
and upkeep. If you now consider
price you discover that the Chev
rolet is priced extremely low. Your
Chevrolet dealer invites you to go
over the facts with him.
