*Y * WHITE RIBBON ECHOES. * * * * * * **** * ** ** ** *** * Wanted-Boys. Who wants the boys? The Sunday schools want them. They can scaree ly thrive without boys. The church needs them. It is imaJE weak when the boys draw a way from: the sacred service. The public schools are after the boys, to fit them for the stern duties of honest citizenship and cannot ful fill its mission without boys. The Nation needs boys. Its very ex istence is threatened when the boys arA drawn away for evil purposes. It must have boys-good boys, noble boys, true boys, honest boys, brave boys, strong boys, manly boys, clean boys and pure. The saloon wants boys. All boys, any boys. It cannot exist without boys. It will die without boys to feast its ravenous appetite, for it lives on the souls of boys. It is the most persistent, relentless seeker efter boys which exists to day. It never ceases its deadly chase. It is the most insidious ar d ruthless foe known to humanity, and the inter ests of the boys constitute the object of its most bitter and malignant at tacks. "The boys of today are the men of tomorrow,'" and the drink cursed boys of today are the drink wrecked men of tomorrow. It must have boys. Boys it is bound to have. Boys it has planned to have. Whose boys? Yours. The point is right here: If the sa - oon lives, the boys must die. This is an awful sacrifice of the home de fenders, for the express purpose of perpetuating the blighting, withering saloon. If the boys are to live, then the sa loon must die. The death of the saloon is the safe ty of the boys. Of the 16,000,000 boys in the country, 10,500,000 are ensnared. Shall these continue to be reowded out, and the other 5,500,000 be drawn into the awful vortex, to give place to 256,000 murder mills? Which shall it be, boys or saloons? Homes or saloons? Sunday schools or saloons? Public schools or saloons? Churches or saloons? Nation or sa loon? The life of the saloon means the death of ali else. Boys, the saloons would murder you. Strike the accurs ed saloon, and strike it hard. Law Prohibiting The Sale of Cigaret tes to Minors. Sec. 329. It shall not be lawful for any person or persons, either by himself or themselves, to sell, furnish, give or provide any minor or minors, under the age of eighteen years with cigarettes, tobacco, or cigarette paper, .or any substitute therefor. * Any person or persons violatng the provisions of the preceding Section, either in person, by agent, or in any other way, shall be held and deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon indictment and conviction therefor shall be punished by a fine not ex eeeding one hundred dollars, nor less than twenty-five dollars, or by im prison'ment for a term of not more than one year. nor less than two months, or both. in the discretion of the court: one-half of the fine im posed to be paid to the informer of the offense, and the other half to be paid to the treasurer of the county in which such conviction shall be had. The Cynthia Mower Loyal Temper ance Legion opened its fall session Oct. 29, 1908. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Master Frank Williamson, president: Miss Estelle Bowers, vice president; Miss Helen *Wi}iarns, secretary and treasurer, and Miss E'tta Shelley. superintend ent of Flower Mission Department. *A State Loyal Tem.perance Legion was organized a.t the State conven tion of the W.

(Our Na-tional paper) Miss EAtelle Bowvers and Mas ter Henry Best volunteered as lead ers. - We are laiboring under great diffi culties as to a place of meeting. The clerk of court and supervisor kindly offered the use of the court room in the old court house but we find that to be an undesirable place of meeting on account of the location. The par ents object to the danger the children eneounter in crossing the square and elimbing the stone steps. Will any one who is deeply interest ed in temperane~ come to our aid ?
