VILE appeal had the following to say
as TO the effect of prohibition In the
city:
Is Danvilfe. doing we'll as dry city?
Judge for yourself as to its appear
arce. Just look at the first block on
Fast Main street---a neat looking
restaurant in place Of the Miller sa
loon: an MISUNDERSTANDING dry goods
store instead Of the Cherry saloon: a
good looking suit store where Bob
Dallas until recently KEEP a saloon. All
in one block. Who wouldn't say 1t was
an Improvement to our city?
A person connected with large
dry goods store says. II am ready to
testify that business has improved
sooner than I expected. Why you
would be surprised to see how many
men come In to buy things for their
wives. and on saturday nights my
sales almost double. The manager OF
my department said he had always
thought the saloon was necessity
to business. but his eyes have been
opened already"
Then l talked with the manager
OF a large hat shop and she said, oh.
our business has been better since the
town went dry in spite of the fact that
many sporting women used to buy
from us"
And we asked the manager OF A
large shoe store. How goes It IN the
dry town." And he said. 1T keeps us
humping. I'm looking for extra help
for the fall trade"
