Suffolk, Nov. 15.-The reward for
temperance sometimes comes at once;
ut others the good may happen after
many years or. maybe. at death. To 20
temperate Suffolk people 1t is coming
after decade. and Is coming in dollars
and cents.
A long time ago there was a society
here called Friends of Temperance.
These anti-liquor people met at inter
walls and had good time in their way.
Then the interest began to drag, and
members dropped out to re-enter the
ranks Of Bohemianism. Finally, when
the rolls had been decimated, and there
we're left but % of-'the faithful, whose
dues We're paid the society went into
dissolution. The Friends Of Temper
ance were fast sinking into oblivion.
That was about ten years ago.
But the Friends OF Temperance had
paid dues, and before that feeling of
desuetude they owned part interest In
their hall. Some time ago the question
Of disposing of their interest came up.
but many persons thought that one
time adherents OF defunct organiza-
ton had no chance from a standpoint
or dollars Attorney Lee Britt was en-
ployed, and after season Of litigation
ana court DEGREES he has managed to
reach settlement and is now hunting
up former teetotalers that he may
award them s15.57 each. To them It's
just like finding 1t in the gutter
