THE FOE OF EFFICIENCY.
Sir John French says: “Abstinence and self-control makes a man more serviceable. ” Sir Frederick Treves {surgeon to the King) says: “If you want to be efficient, don’t touch alcohol.” Admiral Sir John Jellieoe says: “In the Navy there are three qualities upon which efficiency mainly de l>ends: Discipline, Endurance, Straight Shooting.” Abstinence is necessary for tli t highest efficiency. Strong drink makes weak men. Don’t drink ! In industries, on the railways, in ironworks, shipbuilding yacds, otton and woollen factories, glass v.orks. in the harvest field, in building, and, in fact, in all trades and industries, experience shows that work can be better done without alcohol.
