MRS BRAMWELL BOOTH.
ON PROHIBITION. Mrs Booth speaking in Leeds Town Hall said that the members of the Salvation Army in England and all round fin world were proving the advantages of Prohibition; they were pledged not to touch, taste or handle alcoholic liquor. They were proving it in every trade and industry, in the steel works, in the bowels of the great ships that crossed the ocean. The thousands of Salvationists in tin* British Arm> proved last winter that they could keep their posts in the trenches without partaking of the rum ration. They were proving in every climate and in all circumstances that they could be prosperous and happ\ without availing themselves of strong drink in any shap rt or form. W hat an absurdity it was to placard our walls with “Eat less bread,'’ while they were brewing more beer.
