It takes about as much money to have an old pair of shoes repaired
these days as anew pair of shoes cost a lew years ago.
\ young mail 40 years ago culd many if he had nothing, but what
about it now with the high cost of everything’? A calico dress for one
dollar then made a young bride look prettier than a hundred and titty
dollar suit does these days. Times and styles have changed as well as
the genuine love between man and wife ol the years ago.

PRIHIBITION.
Many become discouraged because prohibition docs not prohibit
and are ready to give up the tight.
Many men who claim to be prohibitionists were never very strong
in the faith, like many who have become church members.
The man to lie a real church member and follower of his lmrd must
be sincere and in earnest.
The man who is aprohobotionist must be sincere and in earnest and
help to make public sentiment strong enough to enforce prohibition.
Prohibition can prohibit, but public sentiment must tavor it and be
strong enough to enforce it.
This will never be done as long as its advocates try to enforce it
when ignorance, and the lower classes are the victims at the bar of
justice and silent or inactive in its enforcement when men higher up
fail to recognize it. and arc ready to wink at the violation and oppose
the prosecution.
As long as this is allowed there will be open violations and a disre
gard of the law.
