OTHER PEOPLE’S IDEAS
LIQUOR AND THE WAR (To the Editor) Sir.—My letter was really written in the sincere hope that it might set some of the more serious thinking public, especially the women, thinking more seriously than men on this question of the evils of alcoholic liquor in this country. If “Do Unto Others” reads my letter again, he will fail to find any mention of wet or dry canteens or any mention of trying to keep liquor out of camps, or in fact any of the items which he mentions in his. I am sorry that the letter has amused him so much. I still feel sure there are quite a number of people in Masterton alone, who will fail to be amused; rather will they be feeling sad at what is in front of us unless we do rise up and do something to put a stranglehold on this enemy. I don’t think “Do Unto Others” could really have read my letter very well, as I notice he refers to so many points that were not even mentioned jn mine; in fact his can hardly be called an answer at all—Yours, etc, LEAD THEM NOT INTO TEMPTATION. Masterton, September 16.
