or who shall issue q prescription
without making q personal examtiia-
tton of the person for whom the

ut is said that the social club has
IN the past been one OF the greatest
obstacles to the regulation OF the
LIQUOR traffic In dry territory. 1'i$a
word club house, as used in the stat
ute does not refer alone to houses
and rooms that are generally known
to be used for club purposes, br.s 1t
refers to and includes all places
where persons directly or Indirectly
associate themselves together for the
purpose Of obtaining, distributing
and INDUCING in, the use OF liquors.
1t is true that q member OF q club
may have on his person liquors ON
club premises but he Is prohibited
from distributing or storing them on
such premises. ;''ls
The keeping or giving away Of
Intoxicating LIQUORS by any shift or
device whatever, to evade the pro.
visions Of the prohibit :tion Law, shall
be deemed an unlawful selling With
ing the provisions of the same.
There arc a great many shifts
and devices that might be employed
with the view OF exadfng the law,
hut which are nevertheless viola
lions. ] will venture to give d few
Illustrations which are said to be etn-
'ployed In dry states where there are
no penalties against the sale Of
liquors by shifts and devices. Asdry
goods merchant, q grocer. & druggist,
e hotel keeper, the proprietor OF a
billiard parior. or indeed any fndi-
vidual engaged in'a gainfnl business,
would In order to stimulate his bust
ness, keep on hand q supply o.
liquors with which to treat such 10
his customers as would like a drink
or the prcprietors Of a. gamblinR
house would furnish HQiiors free ss
an inducement to get persons to visit
their rooms and thus ettmulate and
promote the Eaming enterpriaa. n I;
