What are you W.C.T.U. women doing to help saw the young folk from scenes like these? We are doing our best to get rid of the drink. You seem to have only one idea. Tell me, did you ever hear of scenes like those described by the police, when there was wo liquor present? No, I cannot say I have. Can you tell me of anything that will stop scenes like those while the liquor is allowed to be there? I cannot say just now', but surely something could be done? Yes. the liquor can be prohibited, that and that only w r i!l improve our country dances, or any of our social functions.
