Saloon License.

When a man is granted a saloon IL
cense by the city he is obligated to
certain things and promises to live
in accordance with his license. His
license provides that he will comply
with the laws of the state, which pro
vide that he will keep closed on Sun
day, among many other things When
the Mayor, members of the Common
Council and Police, violate the law by
permitting the saloon men to open
their business places on part of the
Sabbath day, they open the door for
other violations of their license. 1t
has been the rule for years in Grand
Rapids, to permit the saloons to keep
their saloons open part of the day on
Sunday and the present administration
is following its predecessors. If all
the saloon men appreciated this priv
elege they would try and conduct their
places in such a way that they would

stole waist and a pair of stockings in
department store, appeared before
Judge Caverly yesterday.
In her arms she bore a baby 9
months Of age. Three others chung

A policeman said she had been ar

had been paroled. No record of this,
however, was offered.
Its not true, Judge; it is the first
time" she faItered. Owe done wrong.
But what will happen to these babies

HOME FROM

border with Company H, 3rd Reg. of
Menominee, has been mustered out of
the regular army and is visiting with
his people in the town Of Seneca.
Mr. Condo is wearing the regular

serviceable uniform. Condo was in
town to attend the Eagles convention
and was called on June 10, and return
ed just six months to the day. While
on the border, Condo was located at
San Antonio. He states, the expert
ence and discipline was well worth
while and he does not regret the six
months spent on the border.

and prevention Of tuberculosis. Only
those most closely identified with the
work realize what this money has ac-
compIished in securing sanatoria, dis
reoaar.es, visiting nurses, open all
schools, health laws for Tie protection
of all the people, protective measures
for safe guarding the welfare of the
well and remedial care for many
thousands Of needy persons sick with
tuberculosis.
Still fewer Of the purchasers of
Red Cross Seals realize the signif-
canoe of the annual campaign as an ed
ucational movement. Practical in
struction on the prevention of tuber-
cuIosis and its cure has been brought
literally to millions Of people in our
country. This educational work has
been indispensable factor in securing
the curative and preventable agencies
now largely supported from public
funds. and what is of more Importance
it has kept hundreds Of thousands Of
people from falling prey to tubercu-
losis, promoting at the same time the
general health movement with les
sening Of disease in general.
There is no season of the year when
this educational work is carried on
more effectively than during the seal
campaign. In fact, the method of f.
nancing the work, is unique, for the
educational work of the association is
carried on not only through the money
raised but also through the very con-
Quoting of the campaign for raising
funds. There is a moral to this record
Of achieyement-Buy more seals.

give no offense to those who do not
frequent their places of business at
any time. On the other hand it's hard
for the administration, or police off
GERS to enforce the license when they
consent to the violation Of part Of it.
The poorly conducted saloon is the
cause for the great DRY Wave" which
lis sweeping the country. When Ma
tionaI laws prevent the licensing of the
traffic no one influence will be SO much
to blame for bringing it about as the
poorly conducted saloon that continu-
ally violates its license. It's the
drinking man who is voting in favor
Of the Dry Wave just as strong, if not
stronger, than the prohibitionist. They
are becoming Disguised with the sa-
loon that permits selling to Minors,
posted men and those who conduct
stall saloons.
Grand Rapids has two places just
outside her city limits that ought to
be cleaned up, one is on the Plover
road and the other is on the sand hill.
These places should be looked after by
the county authorities with the aid
of the city.

FOR THE REPORTER

Starting with January 1sf, 1917 the
Wood County Reporter will maintain
strictly cash in advance policy for its
subscription. No one will be allow
ed credit on Weekly subscription.
Each account for a year is small and,
therefore, hard to collect when over
due or unpaid. We cannot afford to car
~ SO many and allow them to get be-
hind. The cost of newspaper print
is compelling US to be strict in this re-
spect. The small income from each
subscriber forces US to insist on pay
ment in advance Your paper will be
stopped on January 1st, 1917, unless
paid in advance for that year
