There is an old saying, "A half II
loaf is better than none mt ALL and
this applies to the recent elections
held in twelve different counties as
TO whether liquor should be sold or
not. Nine of the twelve decided that
it could not be sold and while we
would have been glad if all of the
counties had voted against the SELL
ing, of liquor yet we are thankful that
AS many went dry as did. Two OF the
counties that voted dry were Clark
and Montgomery. The next move of
the dry workers is for State Wide
Prohibition and then all of Kentucky
will be dry. A it is lO7 out of 100
