What's Wrong in Holding
A Glass of Beer Against
The Flag That Licenses 1t?

A subscriber sends us beer al.
clipped from The Journal.
A cut of the American flag in the ad
conceals all but the dome of the capitol in
Washington. and glass of beer held in q
mans hand nearly conceals the flag.
This subscriber protests against the
dissertation of the flag in tins manner,
and wants to know if it isn't against the
law to put it to such usage.
Our idea is that it is not against the
law.
If it is against the law, we fail to see
why it should be against the law.
The government permits and licenses
the manufacture and sale OF beer IN
DER the flag so what is wrong in hold
ing glass of beer up to it?
II is a sad reflection upon the patriot
ism and the moral responsibility of the
brewer and the newspaper that prints It,,
but it is no offense against the law, be-
cause the law countenances the stuff.
The government represented by the
grand old flag not only legalizes the traf-
fic, but encourages it by taking care Of
its victims, in doing which, to our way of
thinking, the government legalizes the
use of the same grand old flag for bar
towel.
Another thing:
The protest of a Times reader against
an ad. of this kind in The Journal isn't
going to do any good.
Protest should be sent to The Journal.
And protests should be sent to Wash
ington. calling the attention Of congress
TO the manner in which legalized booze
traffic exposes the flag to such base
usage.
The real Objectionable feature Of the
ad., to our way of thinking. is it's word
ing, which is lie.
II says:
Men and women who eat and drink
and work and play in moderation form
the backbone of nations strength. They
find in pure, wholesome beer a valuable
source Of nouriShment 1t increases
strength and vitality, stimulates the APP
petite, acts as an aid to digestion and a
tonic to the nerve centers
We have said and we repeat, that the
statement is a lie, and we add that a
newspaper that would print it is a party
to it.
1t is a lie because if beer is the great
benefactor TO mankind the adj represents
Il to be. WHISKY ought to be a still
greater benefactor, because what il
claimed for beer is claimed for alcohol
and there is more alcohol in whisky than
there is in beer
Imagine reputable doctor telling a
patient that whisky, "a bottle at time
Is valuable nourishment
Imagine reputable doctor telling a
patient that whisky bottle at time
increases strength and vitality.

XIV has left his nerve centers.
Step into the infrmary and ask the
whisky drinker who began on beer, what
he thinks about alcohol as health
giver.
Step into the county house and ask
some whisky victim there what he thinks
about the bmlding-up qualities of booze,
beer included.
Step into a prison and ask some con-
Wet there ON account Of whisky, what
he thinks about beer and whisky devel-
