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. 0 " c • •- If you wish to he independent when the prosperous years have end ed and hard times begin, increase your bank account now and keep adding to it.
