agitators, have been keeping dena-
tured alcohol in the background. Is
II not probable that the interests who
found they could not mOnopolize it
have been powerful enough to
strangle IT, that they may continue
their profitable monopoly of gasoline
and Illuminating and motor oils? In
brief, has the invisible Government
prevented the general production of
denatured alcohol?
Ones belief in higher civilization
is staggered when it is found that
these self-appointed guardians of the
people join hands with those who
cater to the basest instincts of hui
manity in order to satisfy the greed
that turks scarcely yelled under
cloak Of Righteousness. Is it not an
astonishing spectacle in our civiliza-

State Master Hart Of Carpenter

whose object was to limit grange
membership to actual farmers. His
method is to amend the constitution
so that only farmers will be eligible
as State Masters. The resolution was
referred to the committee on good of

tion is as follows:
"ihe things that control our lives are
nearly worldwide and are growing more
wide every day as the new inventions
almost annihilate space We can turn
all good things that God, in His great
goodness, has given us into evil by a
too great excess in using them. We can
cram down our throats the very best OF
