1930 The Saloon in the Home
A BOY'S LOGIC A LITTLE Band of Hope boy not six years old, recently went to visit his grandmama at Southport. She had been in the habit of daily taking a small quantity of ale under the false idea that it would help to restore her health. On the day of their arrival the ale jug was sitting upon the dinner table. The little fellow-who had been carefully trained by his parents to hate all these evil drinks-on taking his seat, and seeing the jug, quietly rose and without uttering a word, went and removed it to an adjoining closet, closed the door and, on resuming his seat at the table looked earnestly at his grand– mama, and with the simplicity of a child, slowly addressed her thus: "Grandmama, I cannot eat my dinner with that abomin– able stuff upon the table." From that day the ale jug was entirely banished from the table; the noble yet respectful rebuke of that l~ttle boy did it. Io,ooo Temperance Anecdotes, 1870.
