If you think Michigan would be better
off. that your home would be safer and
that your boy would be safer and that
you and your state would profit in every
way if the saloon were banished, then
you intend to vote in November for pro-
hibition
So far, so good.
But unless you want that vote nulh-
fed, or worse than nullfed. a further
and a MOST IMPORTANT duty will con-
front you in the voting booth.
The amendment which would Danish
the saloon in Michigan and for which
YOU would vote if you favor statewide
prohibition, reads as follows
Amend article. sixteen Of The constitution b,
adding new section thereto 90 stand as section
eleven
Article XVI settion H. The manufacture
sale. keeping or furnishing 81 ans l.rous. mas.
brewed. fermented SpirituoUS Cd. intoxicating
liquors, except for medicinal mechanical. cheIrl
cal scientific or sacramental purposes shall b.

ever The Legislature shall b. az provide res
hatlons Tor the sale Of such stFHur, FOR ueIiClr-
al, mechanical, chemical. scientific and -acra
mental purposes"
But voting merely FOR that amend
ment would leave your duty only half
performed
You still have to vote so on what is
termed the "home rule" amendment. but
which The Times recognizes as a home
ruin amendment. and which reads.
Section 80 Every incorporated ctty. every
incorporated village and every organized town
