Miss Margaret Biley has added thirty

in ten days work. The Michigan legis-
lature Is considering the enactment of a
law prohibiting hunters from carrying
intoxicants into the woods, as the great
majority Of accidents and fatalities to
hunters are traceable to the use of
liquor. We have one country union of
which we are justly proud. 1t has the
supervision of eight schools, and they
have undertaken the task of having
thorough systematic instruction given
on scientific temperance. That the DAYS
of the liquor traffic are fast being num-
bered is evidenced by the saloonkeep-
ers, one of whom has recently offered
his saloon and business for sale. He
says: my reason for quitting the
liquor trade is not that am old or rich,
but | can read the handwriting on the
wall, and | believe the finish Of the Ii
quor business is in sight, and | prefer
to step from under before the roof falls
in. | cannot say when national prohi-
bition will arrive, but it is coming as
sure as fate, and is not very far away"
