EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured lantern slide, titled "The Bottle" Part 3, is a poignant image from a Temperance Tale series, produced around 1911. The scene depicts a drunken man and his despairing family, huddled together on the cold, unforgiving streets outside a liquor shop. The man's outstretched hand implores passersby for money, while his wife and children look on with a mixture of sadness and fear. The once proud and self-sufficient family has been reduced to begging for survival, a stark reminder of the destructive power of alcohol addiction. The Temperance Tale series was a popular educational tool used during the early 1900s to raise awareness about the negative consequences of excessive drinking. The slides were often shown in schools, churches, and community halls, and were intended to shock and provoke thought about the devastating impact of alcohol on individuals and their families. The use of vibrant colours and intricate details in this lantern slide adds to its emotional impact. The worn-out clothing and downtrodden expressions of the family members convey a sense of hopelessness and despair, while the brightly lit liquor shop in the background serves as a stark contrast to their desperate situation. This slide, which is part of Box 195 entitled "Curtains & Flags," is a powerful reminder of the historical struggle against alcoholism and the importance of temperance and self-control. The image transports us back to a time when the destructive effects of alcohol were a prevalent social issue, and serves as a reminder of the importance of making informed choices about our health and wellbeing.
