SUNDAY BEER.

Rev. DR.. CROSBY will probably shock the
fanatical temperance people with his sugges-
ton that the saloons be permitted to keep
open for an hour on Sunday at noon to sell
beer to be taken home to drink.
But DR.. CROSBY recognizes, as many peo-
pie of less understanding do not, that beer is
just as necessary to the meals of Thousands
of families in this city as water, wine or coffee
are to others. They have been brought up
on il, and think it q less harmful and more
grateful beverage than ice water.
As q practical man. DIR. CRosBx likewise
knows that beer is sold. and will continue to
be sold. on Sunday in spite Of the law for
bidding it. And he thinks II better to stop
law breaking, s~neaking, lying and secret
drinking by providing one hour in which
beer can be bought for home consumptionl
DR.. CROSBY is right.
