Wouldn't II seem funny II the vets
should suddenly be found fighting In
tavor OF local option In Ingham coun-
ty? Yet that is precisely what hap
pened In Vermont, II the leaders of
the prohibition campaign recently
closed there with a local option vic
tory can be believed, says the Lansing
Journal editorially.
Vermont's acceptance of local op-
ton and rejection of statewide pro-
hibition possibly requires interpreta-
ton by those who know. Interpreta-
ton is being given not only by edi-
tors at distance, like ourselves, but
by liquor dealers. These last men,
toned are flooding the mails with
ready-to-print editorial copy showing
what a calamity Vermont missed by
rejecting prohibition, and how signifi-
cent it is that Vermont should have de-
cided in favor of local option.
We shall not press home the argu-
ment locally on our friends, the op-
ponents OF local option. 1t really Is
too funny, that they should be fight
ing local option in Lansing and other
Michigan cities while they, according
TO report, fought to have local option
adopted In Vermont But for the
further Interpretation of the Vermont
situation we might refer to the lead.
ers Of the dry cause.
They affirm that through the great
victory" OF the vets in Vermont the
whole state will have fewer saloons
than are found today in the single
Michigan city of Saginaw. Vermont
has now Ct. and may add few more:
Saginaw has 101. THE vets Of the
state rooted for local option with all
the means at their command" aver
the dry leaders in their statement.
Because the Green Mountain state
for ages has been welded to the old
town meeting idea, II is further al.
legged, 1t was easy for the vets to
frame arguments to show that II local
option machinery was not retained, &C.
local home rule would be reduced to
a minimum.
The further and final explanation Is
given that the rural vote, on which
the drys depended, was snowbound
in the Vermont mountain Businesses
hence 1t could not be counted
But the humor Of the situation, as
of interest right now in Michigan, is
the eloquence Of the wet orators in
defeating prohibition (which does not
prohibit" by demanding that the peo
pie save themselves for personal
liberty" and retail local option.
Will Michigan liquor dealers O
month hence argue for local option
in order to oppose statewide prohibi
ton? Why not start 1t now and make
II unanimous in Ingham county?

Test For q Field GIass.

Inquiry has it that the absolute and
infallible test of a field glass by the
purchaser Is to see what size letters
can be read across the street from the
opticians shop.
1t isn't The real test Is to climb up
a long and bushy hill until the breath
comes a hundred to the minute. then
snatch for the glass. reposing In n

is the one you want before you fire.
II 1t won't go in your shirt pocket 1t
is not the glass you want: others are
made that will. IF It shakes In your
agitated hands 1t Is not the glass you

One Of the powerful elements on
the dry side appears In the Holland
population Of western Michigan. Both
Reformed and Christian Reformed
denominations who represent many
thousands OF the best Dutch citizens
in the state are endorsing the Anti
Saloon idea. A fact of much meaning
is that the National Synods of both
denominations meet this summer In
Michigan. The Reformed Church
Synod assemblies at Holland in June
and the Christian Reformed General
Synod will meet in Grand Rapids.
An indication of the sentiment
among these people appears in the
resolutions adopted by Chassis Grand
River of the Reformed Church meet
ing in Grand Rapids and representing
q constituency of $4,000 members In
forty churches.
