ent laws it is not so easy; in fact,
where there is insistence upon all the
forms of the law, as in the larger
cities of Iowa at the present time,
only the best class of men can get into
the business, or once in can remain
there. The result has been to put the
sale of drinks and the vending of all
beverages in the hands of a better
class of dealers. AS body they are
concerned about keeping the business
above reproach. They are watching
zealously to see that no person follows
the business who is not willing to con.
form to the laws.
The Iowa mulct law did not please
either the dealers jim liquor nor the
opponents of the trade. 1t took long
while to find out just what it all
meant. 1t took longer to get the PEG.
pie of every part of the state into the
proper frame of mind so that they
would be willing to accept it as the
final settlement of the whole contro.
versy. Then another period was neces'
sary to enable all who were interested
to get into complete conformity to the
law This last stage has been passed
in every city of Iowa In few com
munities where public opinion ia
about evenly divided there are still
some open questions, but these will
cause no trouble.
The fact remains, so it is pointed
out, that not before in the history OF
Iowa has there been such general &C
ceptance of situation which makes
for settled conditions and progress in
accordance with wishes of the people

Good Advice

Young man, If you expect to at
tain success you must work Success
does not crown the efforts of boy who
runs away from school and shirks his
lessons, Success does not crown the
efforts of u youth who stands around
the street corners smoking cigarettes
and expectorating on the sidewalks,
Success does not crown the efforts of u
man who stands around the corners of
the street talking about his neighbors
and whiting out financial policy.
Success is the legitimate result of labor
and application TO business"
