TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC

1t has been the custom for years
with the Kings Daughters of Car
son to provide the needy of this city
with a good substantial box of pro-
visions and a few dainties at Christ
mas time. These boxes have always
been greatly appreciated by those re-
ceiving them and a great help through
the winter. While the recipients
might struggle along they are looked
for by some and counted on.
The Kings Daughters have been
called on to such an extent this fall
that they feel that if there is any n
in II midst who would like to help
one less fortunate than themselves,
their help, however small or great,
would be greatly appreciated by this
order. There are sent in these boxes
groceries of all kinds, canned fruit,
homemade jelly and preserves, or
anges, chicken, duck or turkey, cauli-
flower and celery. Almost any thing
will be acceptable. This call will re-
main open till next Tuesday, Decem-
Der 10Th, and any one wishing to
donate will kindly send same to Mrs.
Fred Cushing's home, where the
boxes will be packed and sent out.

how he got there.

the Lord with 1t and 1t is going some.
Nineteen states are under prohibitory
law, and seven more are to vote on
the dry question this fall. over co.
100000 people are now In dry terri
tory. Grand old Colorado has done
herself proud by joining the ranks
of the dry states. But now the
liquor interests are gathering their
forces for a supreme battle to fasten
their accursed traffic upon us again.
They have secured the privilege of
ing proposed amendment to the con-
stitution:
Beer is hereby declared to be a
non-intoxicating liquor within the
meaning OF this article. and the man
ufacture and sale of beer Is hereby
made possible. provided, however,
that all beer shall be sold in unbrok-
en- packages. and delivered directly
to the consumer at his residence.
The state treasurer shall collect a
tax of 10 cents per barrel for each
and every barrel of beer manufac-
tured."
Note the truthfulness of the first
sentence. Ask any ten year old boy
what he thinks of the assertion that
beer don't intoxicate. II 1t don't.

They have issued a card In Denver
with cartoon representing a Judge
facing a policeman who is endeavor-
ing to hold up very limp specimen

Says the Judge:

Therein lies our danger. The brew

we must enlighton and persuade
