It is a sin to get drunk. Itisa sin
against self, against the family,
against the State and. the nation, It
is & sin against God. oNo drunkara
shall inherit the kifigdom ot Jo.�
The Wora of God says so. It is a
sin to get drunk, but, more, it is a sin
not to say so. We fail if we do not
take advantage of every Opportunity to
say so. Thousands of our fellow men
are asking this question every day.
It is # vital one, and its answer wil!
have much to do toward making those
who ask it better or worse. There
ougat not, therefore, to be any un er-
tain sovnd in our replies, Every man
who indulges in intoxicating liqu_rs is
fully persuaded ia his own mind that
its effect on him as an individual 18 evil,
and only evil. He 1s not tully per-
suaded that ie is injur'ng his family or
his neighbor, He can not, however,
quiet his conscience as to bis God, and
so after each indulgence that deprives
bim cf his renses, the question torces
Is it a sin to get
