Every man, woman and child should

the river it is said that Greer will
become an important grain shipping
point, and other warehouses will
probably follow.

rounding country should see John

lectures or sermons ever
produced. 1t is the life picture of

life from boyhood to manhood, and
the struggle with liquor. 1t is not
the story of some crank. or some
but of man who drank and
sank in the meshes Of the demon
Rum. The liquor interests have tried
to stop the production of this wonder
full moving picture, and there is a
reason for it. Don't miss it. I
