AZ nluch interest has been taken
IN the question as to whether liquors
could be served in homes after July
4. the Telegram directs attention to an
article in another column on the sub
iect setting forth the views and rulings
Of the state prohibition commissioner.
Many thought that man could not
serve liquors TO the members OF hrs
own family in his home, but the COM
missioner holds that he can not only
do that but also can serve his guests
liquors the same as he now serves
them coffee.
