PRESIDENT MILLION

MAKES STATEMENT,
John W.. Million, President Of Har-
din College. in answer to inquiries
gives out the following statement
regarding the constitutional amend
ment association at the meeting at
jefferson City. Jan. 10:
The meeting was a very con.
sentative one. The conservatism
was not, however. such as is born
OF despair. All present were In fav-
or Of a persistent and continuous e.
fort to carry Missouri FOR temperance
whether the victory be early or late.
1T was estimated by some that as
many as 225 people were in attend
ance at the meeting. It was decided
to continue the organization. 1t Is
planned to perfect a Statewide or
.ganization covering all the counties
and towns Of the state The church
Is recognized as the chief source of
strength In fighting the liquor evil.
ut was not decided, as reported In
the daily press, that the Association
was opposed to another vote In 1912.
vas decided, however, that the AS,
ISOLATION would not urge the present
General Assembly to call for a Con,
Amendment by statute.
We wanted to leave the General
Assembly free in that particular.
also wanted more time to con.
'ider the matter ourselves. Another
Meeting OF the Association is call
at sedalia in June, BY that time,
y course, the General Assembly will
ave gone on record ia a positive %
negative way.
Therefore. at the June meeting
he question will come up and be
lecided whether or mot, In case the
legislature passes no antiliquor leg
of a satisfactory nature, this
association will caH for another yote
N statewide prohibition In 1912 by
Means Of the initiative.
Very sincerely,
JOHN w. MILLION.

The symptoms OF kidney tnoublt

sation of scaldiug. The back achel
constantly, headaches and dizzy
spells may occur and the victim il
often weighed down by a feeling o
languor and fatigue. Neglect thest
warnings and there Is danger o.
dropsy. Any one of these symp
toms is warning enough to beglr
treating the kidneys at once. Delay
often proves fatal.
