The Invercargill Ministers' Associ ation on the basis of facts on which they believe they can rely venture to make the following deliberate asser tions:—(!) That there is a certain class in the community which is alto gether dead to shame, and which holds in contempt the laws of chastity which guard the moral health of the family and of the nation ; (2) thai this class is being to a certain extent recruited from the members of respectable families, and that its corrupting influ ence has in recent years been making itself painfully manifest in the demor alisation of mere children ; (3) thafc much of this evil is to be traced to the unrestricted liberty granted by some parents to their children iv regard to the choice of companions and the spending of their leisure time— the result being that children are some times sul.jected to temptations of this kind before they have any proper understanding of the disastrous con sequences of their actions; (4) thafc much of this evil may therefore be prevented through parents exercising the right which properly belongs to them of seeing to it that their com panionships or their methods of spending their hours of leisure, be not unnecessarily and prematurely brought into contact with the sources of corruption which undoubtedly exist in the • community. They hope that a public sentimrmt will be generated in regard to this matter so healthy and so vigorous as shall make it impossible for anyone to help in swelling the stream of corruption, either by positive acts Qf evil or by careless neglect of due precautions, without being made to feel that he thereby incurs from the whole mass of respectable citizens a weight of just indignation whioh shall be proportion ate^ to the. gravity of the sin—a sin wbich perhaps more than any other tends to the overthrow of health, happiness, and peace in the individual, in the family, and in the nation. ■—^— —^— ■—-—■—— Certainly the most effective medicine in the world is SANDER and SONS' EUCALYPTI EXTRACT.
