WAR VS.. ALCOHOL

One of the astonishing incidents Of
the great war has been it's influence in
accusing opposition to alcoholic iiq-
uors. Russia stopped the sale Of vodka
throughout the empire This was
war measure. but il carried it's own
comment on the general effect Of al
cohol. Now in France, on the front
page of the revered and conservative
Figaro. we find an eloquent plea for
following this example and abolishillg
alcohol entirely! The writer. Raphael
Georges Levy. well-known econom-
list and statistician, concludes thus:
we have already stopped the sale
Of absinthe. Why halt on the road =?
II is only when favored by a great
current of enthusiasm and national
revival like that which crosses the
country at this moment that vir!le
resolutions can be taken. Nive la
France ct mort a ralcool!"

alcohol)

CATHOLIC CENTRALS
DEFEAT LOCAL BOYS
BY q To 6 SCORE

Bedding played a gritty game Sat
urday against team that classes it
self with other big teams of the state
and at no time did any of the players
lay down" They were outweighed
and outclassed but battled heroically
10 the last. The Catholics showed
signs Of good coaching and clever
team work. Bedding worked very well
and carried the ball nearly the whole
length of the field in the second quart
er but lost il on downs and were un-
able to hold their opponents.
Grand Rapids showed skill in end
running. Earl Price OF the locals was
the only man that was successful
q good defensive game and made good
gains through the line. The absence
of Moon and Soules weakened the
team. BeldinE figures they did pretty
well to hold the score down as they
did. The Catholics stated they eX-
pected TO run up a score of IS or 100.
Belding now knows where to inn
prove and ii is hoped to have the team
in the best possible condition for the
Thanksgiving game which will decide
the county championship. Coach
Nelson is anxious to get all members
Of the team out at each scheduled
practice from now on. Heretofore ii
has been almost impossible to get
full team out for practice but the APP
proach Of the Thanksgiving game and
county championship fight may bring
them out

FRIDAY EXERCISES

Rev Doty's talk on The Object of
an Education was both interesting
and instructive. He said that the
real object OF an education should not
be merely TO obtain a higher salary
but TO be of greater use TO the world /;
that the best way to do this was to be
able to do one thing well rather than
a good many things passably well. To
obtain this speciality, the pupil should
decide as soon as possible what this
one thing is To be. and choose his
school work with this end in view.
Mr.. Doty emphasized the fact that a
true education develops US physically,
mentally and morally.
Instrumental music was furnished
by Mrs. j. T. Berry, and the Misses
Downs and Helm favored with a vocal
duet

demnation Of the evils resulting from
drinking. Alcohol enfeebles the race,
takes away from workmen part of
their strength and wages and reduces
the whole economic position Of indi-
vidual and nation alike. The greatest
enemy of France. he asserts, more
dangerous than the savage German
beaten by our armies" is alcohol.
Closing all liquor shops he concludes
to be impossible. But he urges a pro-
gressive limitation OF their number and
an end OF all secret manufacture.
There is strong language in NJ.
Levy's outpouring. Some of il may
be set down TO the spirit of the hour.
But who knows what change may
come over the spirit of Europe when
such notions OF efficiency VS.. alcohol
can take the place of honor in the
