Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Prohibition Has Done to America When the lazy or dull-witted students fail in the examination, said a wise schoolmaster, I try to find out what is wrong with the boys; when the best in the class fail to pass I try to find out what is wrong with myself. The Eighteenth Amendment is treated with contempt, the Volstead act for its enforcement is violated without compunction, by countless thousands of our best citizens. It is idle to try to find out what is the matter with these people; they are as good as we have, or can ever hope to have. The thing to do is to find out what is the matter not with the law-break ers but with the law. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book American Prohibition Year Book

Download or read book American Prohibition Year Book written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Prohibition Year Book: For 1910 The faith that keeps on fighting is the one That keeps on living - yes, and growing great! The hope that sees the work yet to be done, The patience that can bid the soul to wait - These three - faith, hope and patience - they have made The record of the years that swiftly sped, Have kept the leaders leading, unafraid Of what the doubters murmured lurked ahead. The faith that goes on fighting - through the night It notes the gleam of each far distant star; It sees the glimmer of the dawning light Deep in the dark that shrouds the things that are. It has done much, this faith serene and strong, Unmindful of the ashes of defeat, But, trusting in the right against the wrong, Has been as trumpet call or drum's loud beat. Men have their principles, but when they lose They turn to others, and with scarce a pause. Yet all these years there have been none to choose Another guerdon than this mighty cause. In history's pages many things appear - The great, the splendid actions and the mean - But this has been recorded year on year Upon a page imperishably clean. To place contentment in a nation's homes, To drive out fear for cheer in children's hearts, Is more than to uprear a thousand domes Or dominate the world and all its marts, So who may know how well the race is run Until we crown the victor soon or late? The faith that keeps on fighting is the one That keeps on living - yes, and growing great! - Wilbur D.

Book Prohibition  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Prohibition Classic Reprint written by Joseph Debar and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prohibition Into all great controversies which agitate the public mind, there enter always many questions which cloud the vision and obscure the understanding of those who have no fixed views of their own, and are endeavoring to learn the truth. Such honest seekers after knowledge naturally turn to the libraries for books which they hope will enlighten them. It is the purpose of this volume to aid those, who, without prejudice, desire to ascertain the views of men who have studied the question of Prohibition from many angles - not from the standpoint of emotionalism, nor yet for any purpose of sensationalism, but from the strong vantage ground of practical common sense. Some of the articles offered in these pages were apparently written for use in local campaigns; they bear evidences of local color, and are reproduced for the general argument contained in them, rather than for the specific views which they set forth. In making selections, the compiler of this work has chosen what to him bore the ear-marks of sincerity, reason, and logic. Appeals to the passions of men and women were not favorably considered. He trusts and believes that this book may do much to fill a want among sincere students who incline to a rational solution of a greatly overwrought question.
