TOTAL ABSTINENCE.
Reading edition
There is a rule in the Boys' Brigade according to which you are supposed to be abstainers from drink. I need not say what a good thing that is. You will all be very much better for being abstainers. You will save a great deal of money, and probably keep your health up better. I wish I had been a total abstainer in my youth. I should have saved a great deal of money.
Boys' Brigade Inspection, Newport, April 19th, 1894.
