Psalm 101.1-8; Proverbs, 23.20-35, Golden Text—1I will set no base thing before Mine eyes.— Psalm 101! America’s adoption of the eight- eenth amendment has made prohibi- tion a world-wide question. World Temperance Sunday calls for the con- slderation of prohibition from & new angle in our Sunday schools. In studying this lesson we are not called upon to consider it from the position of elvic duty, which de- mands of all men, no matter whether they ‘favored the principle of probi- bition; we are to look at it from the Constitution and enforce the national and state Jaws in reference to prohl- bition, we are to look at it from the scriptural point of view. While the ibllcal writers did not know any- thing about modern prohibition, they proclaimed the spiritual principles that the nation has adopted In Its adventure in moral and economic legislation, which has attracted the attention of all the world. No nation has ever attempted such a glgantic task as the United States undertook when it outlawed the lig- uor Interests. Its decision was not nastily made, but was based upon the consideration of conditions that ‘hreatened the foundation of the na- dow's life. The use of alcoholic iiquors and the influence of the sa- ioon was a menace to the Union that was formed to “establish justice, in- crease domestic tranqulility, provide ‘or the common detense, promote the general welfaro and secure the bless- ngs of liberty to ourselves and our pusterity,” so the natfon outiawed “he liquor traffic. The people who selieved that personal «liberty per- Mitted them to violate the laws of ‘he states and nation hastened, by thelr interpretation, the plan to make :he Unlted States a dry nation by 1920. Those waio favored the prohi- oftion amendment may have been en- :ouraged by biblical principles that ‘hey applled to the use of wicoholic Severages. The inspiration probably :ame from the influence of the scrip- ures upon the minds of men, but it vas supplemented by eclentific inves igations and economlic factors that he world war hastened. The lesson or this week places first, as did the wo recent conferences heid in Wash- ngton, the citizenship and the gov- rnors’, the responsibility of public Mlicials for law enforcement No person can be depended upon to nake good as & public official who ioes not possess a faith in God. Only hose who have the “fear” of Jehovah n their hearts, through thelr personal xperlence of His grace, can be count- «d upon to exercise mercy and jus- Ace in the enforcement of the laws Jf the natlon. Character Is essential n every ruler, Personality built upon faith in God and one's accountability to Him for every private and pubiic 1wt will enable a ruler or public offi ial to enforce the laws of the nation iree from fear and the desire to favor any interest or persons {n the eyes of the psalmist. Officlals who long for the fello ship of the Lord are apt to be la ibiding persons. Men can't enforce aws that they personally break. The ate President Harding's public and srivate stand in reference to the p ional use of liguors was an example o0 all who wished to obey the luws of ‘he nation. He saw in the enforc ment of the laws in reference to pr afbition the obligation of every cit zen end official to consistently sup- | port the law to be teetotalers.” Long before he made his public declaration | n his speech {n Denver last June, our | beloved late President. who had not uways been an abstalner, made tnown to his friends what he de- clured publicly in his great addrees apon law enforcement, that “he would | rever again touch alcoholic bever- | iges.” He saw cleariy that prohibi- ion had become the law of the land iand that it would continue to be the law, although “details of enforcement solfcy doubtless will be changed as 'xperfence dictate He recognized | hat Americans faced the “issue of | vhether the laws of this country can | be and will be enforced.” He pointed »ut that “Ours must be a law-abiding -epublic, and reverence and obedlence nust spring from the influential and eaders among men, as well as obedi- snce from the humbler citizens, clse he temple will collapse.” Every ruler | Tust gee to It that “within my house,” ¢ a8 the psalmist puts it, there would se an obedlence of law in every r spect. No man can consistently in osc_upon his fellow men ahy law which he violates or allows to be broken in his own home. Every public officlal is influenced by is associates and daily experlences. The man who praises God recognizes hat there Is no enjoyment for him in he_assoclation of men who are un-! ‘althful and sinful. He selects for his fiends those who are not talnted with | he Inlquity of the world. Like David, 10 realizes that he must protect society by freeing it from the entangling al- {iance of the scandal monger. His court | must be free from all those whose words, acts or significant look would :eck to destroy the character of others. The haughty and malignant dishonest person ought mot to be permitted to Jave intimate relations with any pub- ic official. While the Psalmist did 10t mention Intemperance. Experience woves that the use of intoxlcating irinks as & beverage has a tendency toy infit persons eventually for all public flice. The drinker forgets in his self: hness his obligations to God and his | ‘ellow men when he is under the Influ- ‘nce of strong drink. The selection from Proverbs present i 1 v vivid description of the destructive ywith pictures, nfluence of the use of intoxicating 'iquors. Six pointed questions portray “he iniquitous power of wine drinking n the passage that has been well called | he drunkard’s looking-glass. The | ource of earthly wretchedness, human | sorrows that afilict the body and dis- | “urb the consclence, the cause of strifes | And long-continued feuds, the root of “he foollsh babbling or complaining b he drunkard’s tongue “set on fire of “tell,” as well as the needless wounds ind the Impairment of vision and judg- ment, are found to be in the answer of “he six questions to be due to drink. The pathway to human happiness | and health is along the way of total | abstinence, If one wishes to follow that road the wise man's advice is for that person not to look upon the in- toxicating cup that has been mixed with *myrhh, defrutum, piates, honey | and cinnamon” so that it would appeal | “o the taste and the eye by its sparkle. | King’s Daughters to Meet at St.| Appearances deceive. They do not reveal the deadliness, degradation, danger and delirfum that is contained in the social glass. The helplessness *nd inablity of men to overcome the power of drink that destroys one's ersonality, power and prospect of enven has aroused men to fight the evil with legislation. The drunkard pulls others down with him. He unfits himself for serv- ice for God, home and humanity. Pro- hibition was sought to curb the curse.

A Werld Issue, A few years ago the temperance question was one of local option, which created a demand for state rohibition. When state after state came dry the need for national pro- hibition became apparent. Today, with national prohibition & perma. nent part of the Constitution, the roblem of smuggling of alcoholic lquors froin other nations has bmnfim prohibition into the interna- tional fleld.

Newspaper reports indicate that they will sup- port our contentions and give their assistanee. It has become a live issue in Indla, Japan, South Africa, China and many other lands. A dis- tinguished English leader predicted to the writer last summer that he expected that Lloyd George would come to America, &3 he has, and that he probably would give considerable attention to the working of prohibi- tion lhere, because, if we make it work, then Britaln would be forced to adopt it to keep her place in the business world. While the brilllant leader not sald a word about the tublect here, as he has pleaded for a closer fellowship In saving civiliza- tion and democracy, one can rest as- Fured that he has caught the vision of America. While some of the col- onles may be the first, Britain and other countrics are sure to adopt prohibition in a few years, when we have sucoessfully enforced it here.
