Pray Liquor Law In Effect.

The Pray bill regulating the shipment
Of liquor into local option counties is
now in effect and is certain to greatly
decrease the supply of Intoxicating bev-
erages which have been shipped into
Shiawassee county by freight and ex-
press since the local option law was
adopted.
Section two of the new law makes it
unlawful for any person to consign,
ship or transport in any manner what
soever, or deliver any liquors, except
ing for medicinal, sacramental, chem
ical or scientific purposes, to any person

signor, kind and quality of liquor con-
tained, and the statement that either
such liquors are for medicinal or

false statement is made regarding the
shipment of the package, the consignee
or the consignor will be deemed guilty
Of violating the act.
Express, railroad and other transpor-
tation companies are obliged to keep a
public record of all liquor shipments.
This part of the law makes it possible
where any person is suspected of run
, ming blind tiger. to ascertain at the
freight and express offices, how much
! liquor is being shipped to that person.
The record required of the Transports
tion companies is open to the public
inspection and is prima facie evidence
Of the facts. The law also prevents the
delivery of liquor by express and freight
agents to minors. The person shipping
or receiving liquors is required by the
law to sign his true name in all cases
The word person" used through the
act includes any individual, firm, CO
partnership or corporation or any com
bination of individuals.

AS near the years allotted to man,
! wonder why that more should care
For The things that were, than the things
that are.
Can it be that my heart lies buried theref
Like things that fade in the sunset glow,
Or are blried deeo with the winter snow,
Or the hush OF dav when the sun gets low,
Oh, no.
The past holds far more to us-the aged,
Than the future can ever give.
And the name Of that Isle is the long ago.

our little farm to an old rail fence,
seven good rails high. built fifty years
ago, and good for fifty more; and my
eyes get dim when think of that long
ago when there was JOY in living.
1t seems to me that the fences built
then expressed the character Of the
builder-many were built high and
true proving not only fence but a
defense; while others would stretch
them to the limit, these men would
stretch the truth just as bad and make
their wife stretch the cloth for dress

And he says to himself, says ne:
'The sounds i hear doth affrignE

This is no place for my honest faess

They shouted: "Fellers, lookit ti,s

He ambled along on his way
For he had no deals with those cans

His office was closed for the day
