TEMPERANCE RALLY—A WOMAN’S PROTEST.
tho 1st iiHt., your report of a temperance rally cxUUafned' extracts tof .si>ecches whidli may have had excellent intention, but which may have heeii rather imfortuimte in expres sion. As a worn.an 1 should like to protest against the insinuations that tho weakness of womankind was resitoiisildo for a great deal of Uio uufortunato occurrences wliich were recorded during tlie \yar. Tho unjustifiahlo attack on womanhoud is only on .a par with tlio
unroa.sonahle arguments used by the siK'aker.s at tho rally. Every example there was made iu condemnation of drink. . TIio speakers were falling into tlie error which is unforlunatoly common in th a t they confused driuk-witli driiukenuoss. Drink is one thing; its proper mo is not harmful but its alniso is dangeroits, ami is proi»erIy lalxdlcd drunkenness. The cause of temperance will not bo advanced by confusions of adoveacy or by attempts to
mi.slend. 1 fail to mulorstaiid why tho political issue of tho ideals of tho Lai/our Party should ho confitserl with an advocacy of what ainonnts to prohibition. Y'ours faithfully,

industrial cloud and 1 bcliovo tlia t tho Castle, having been open, 1ms had a ten dency to relievo to a certain extent tho disastrous
dcpre.ssioii of mind. I havo sfjent liours of pleasure in the evenings in the Castle grounds and I Jiave dca*ived .mncli benefit and also hoard from others visiting the grounds of tho pleasure they Iiave de rived from i t. ^lany have wislied tliey had i t in thoir own town, hut there has alway.s scorned to he .something lacking, and IhaT, somctliiiig is enlorpri4se. 1 would .suggest th a t tho Corporation, if they cannot see tlieir way to represent the town in tlio spirit of progress, .sliould call a ratepayers mooting to form a scheme’
s or working committee for
tho development of the Castle grounds. They would spend tho moiicv l)ut they
would get returns and they would show tJmb tho enthusiasm required for tlie carrying out of thisschomo is a t hand. Properly imuingetl, tile Castle would not only prove a boon to our tomi in general hut would be a means of bringing in thousands of visitors who would not only come
them.solvcs, but would liring financial returns to our shopkeepers. I don’t want to weary you, Mr. Kditor,
hut. I will add a few suggestions. Tlio first ks tlmt a working committix' be appointed to consist of 12 ladies and 12 gentlemen, with llu* Town Council ex-officio. Tlieir dutie.s should bo to coiLsider tho ways and moans ol opening out the Castle and grounds to the keiiofit of snl)scril)crs and ratepayers of tlie town. Anything taken up by the ladies of Ctitiheroe for tlio general henofit lias not misseil lieing a success. The committee slionld consider the
advi.sahility of laying tminis courts, howling greens and a miniature golf course; the orecliou of swing.s for the chil dren; the letting of the hoiLse for refresh- mont purposes, or running tho same by the c^immittee; tho advertising of tlie
Ca.stle, Clithcroo and its surroundings; and tlio le tt ing of t-lie grounds for tlie raksing of money. Band contests, etc., might ho liold and if needs ho a j>ortio;i of the low field could bo convcrte<l into a lake; T don’t sec why so mueh valnalile water as we havo slionld l>o running to waste, when i t could he collected and a lake made.
