The DrunknrS5,m Dilemma

Dear Editor most worthy sir:
] ask your sage advice,
How can l get something that's wet?
III pay most any price.
For just of late. this crazy State,
Has gone completely dry.
And not drop OF rye or hop
For money can you buy.
Now don't you think that when a ginx
Has just little cash.
Ills hard that he compelled should be
To spend 1t all for hash?
This bunch OF dough. excites me so,
/ don't know what to do.
That's why | speak. and humbly seek
For sound advice from you.
! have n wife. whose married life,
Has wretched been tbs true;
She's needing clothes from hat to hose,
Would you advise me to
Take some of this. and with kiss,
Give her to buy some shoes7
For as you know. things now are so,
I can't spend 1t for booze.
And for the sake Of Dot and Jake.
Would you advise also.
a coat and cap and good warm wrap,
So they to school can go?
Would YOU with some. that once for
rum,
/ used to freely spend.
Buy coal and wood and wholesome
food.
And to my cottage send?
Would you agree. il you were me,
To try to pay some blllso
The merchant for the clothes you wore.
The doctor for his pills7
BY now. dear sir. my pulses stir
And self-respect leaps high.
I'm really glad. some cranks we had
To make the State go dry.
Instead OF drink. TIL spend my link
For honest goods. you bet.
My home shall see much more of me,
Than when the State was wet
] know that life for me and wife
VIII be more glad and bright,
And Jake and Dot will tremble not
When ] come home at night
Now thanking you for counsel true
For honest work I'll search,
Farewell to buns, when Sunday comes
I'll take my wife to church.

ties Of dry" States, show the truth OF
the declaration that prohibition helps
business.
Since North Carolina entered the
column of prohibition States there has
come to the people here many In
quiries concerning how prohibition
worked, II business was hurt or
helped, II being the desire Of people
in other places where prohibition was
proposed to get at the facts OF the
effect on trade produced by prohibit
ton. And the word has gone back
that prohibition Ia helping North
Carolina, that tho state Ia growing far
more prosperous because II has prohi-
bltion.
Business has been Increased in
North Carolina by reason of prohibi
uon, And crime has been decreased.
These are two results which follow
on prohibition. and both OF these
Things mean for better State. In
those States whore prohibition fights
are being made the people will find
that II Will prove n benefit II liouor is
cast out, That has been demonstrated
In North Carolina and 1t will he proved
true In all parts Of the country, The
hu-prohihlNon folks are fronting a
DAY when there will be 70 LIQUOR sold
or manufactured within the law in this
country. and that will be a great day

ernor- elect Carl L Miliken, In his
forthcoming inaugural address. will
urge a constitutional amendment pro-
viding for an custer law. giving the
Governor and Council the right 20 re-
move officials who do not show proper
diligence IN the enforcement Of the
law. We are surprised to learn that
Maine has no such law. We deem our
Virginia custer law one OF the most
essential features Of our prohibition
system. No man who has worked hard
to get himself elected TO a good office
Is going to let It get away from him by
failing or refusing TO enforce the law
New Hampshire has an interesting
nght on. The battle will be to dis
place the present local option law with
Statewide prohibition. thereby restor-
ing New Hampshire to the list of
prohibition States
In many other States legislation is
pending looking to either the strength
entng Of prohibitory laws or OF sub
hitting the question OF prohibition to
a referendum, Kentucky may be
counted on. we take ii to ioin the
siEterhood OF dry Cornmonwealths
during 1917
One of the most hopeful and help
ful features OF the legislative pro-
grams In nearly every State Is that
they contain n large number of hui
nanitarian enactments., looking TO the
welfare OF the people. their protection
from accidents, their health. proper
limitations OF hours OF abor. improved
prison conditions, and many other
matters which properly come within
the scope Of Legislative activity Amer
