BAN PLACED ON
 SPARKLING FIZz

Little Rock, Nov. 17-Spark- ling Fizz will no longer be a pie nic drink in Arkansas, and if a dealer purchases it for sale, he must take out a retail liquor li- cense or suffer prosecution from the government. Sparkling Fizz has been put out by a Kansas City concern and was freely sold over north Arkansas as a prohi. bition drink. The increase of good spirits on the part of the drinkers as well as the tottering in locomotion which resulted of continued partaking, caused
 revenue officers to send in to the office of Internal Revenue Collac- tor F. W. Tucker several sample bottles for analysis. The test was applied to the Sparkling F'izz Friday afternoon and the run showed per cent alcohol. This is about the same strength as beer, as commercially pre-. pared and the government allows but one half of one per cent in temperance drinks. Conse. quently, the ban has been put on Sparkling Fizz as a soft drink
