It asks him to sign the Alliance Petition demanding a poll on the question of prohibition. And surely no one who has the welfare of the children at heart can refuse to cast his vote in favour of the abolition of the Drink Traffic. Face the facts—think of those known to you who have fallen by the wayside through drink. Life will hold enough pitfalls and stumbling blocks for the children without retaining the greatest of all —the Drink Traffic. Inarticulately the children cry to you “Lead us not into temptation.” Do not ignore that cry. Respond to their appeal and banish from their path the Drink Traffic with its heavy toll on all that is best in human life. For the Sake of the Children, Sign the Alliance Monster Petition Do Your Part —SIGN TO-DAY! N.Z.A* EjSqitDcy J3«ri«—B
