SUNDAY LIQUOR QUESTION.
Rev f b. Short of the First Meth
| odisl church took up the matter of
closing saloons and allowing clubs TO
remain open. He emphatically de-

permitted to dispense IL. In answer

cy officials should close the saloons
and allow the clubs to remain open.

that the clubs are allowed special
privileges by law. but only in so far
