Where is Arcola If Napoleon were

of today is in the Corn Belt of Hi

Arcola has sent 50 of her best
young men into the service of her
country, and others preparing to fol-
low. They come from our high
school and farms, and we challenge
and other town of its size in United
States to show such a record.
Our young men have answered
their country's call in defense of HUI
mainly and a worldwide democracy,
the protection of the smallest as well
as the greatest nations in their rights;
and that Our flag shall float on the
high seas of the world.

since at San Antonio, Texas, and
other mobilization camps, they are
permitting the liquor traffic with their
hellish designs on young life, and our
soldier boys are tempted beyond their
moral strength to resist, and while
they are fighting for worldwide

by the stroke of the pen that our

to cities and villages-disgraces to
civilization, ulcers on society, cor
rupters of morals, destroyers of viz
tue, and bold and brazen defers of

and wills impelled them, as if there

which led to action by the Attorney
General.
Verify, these are unhappy days for
illegal liquor sellers. Everywhere
they are being asked to move OH.

tumble themselves into the sea as did
those original blind pgs-that is, pigs

WHY GO DRY FOR THE WAR?

perts in Germany, scientific students
of alcohol there like Kraepelin, and
the Kaiser personally, disbelieve in
alcohol, even in the form of beer
Besides the general reasons for
war Prohibition, there arc a number
of specific reasons" said DIR. Fischer.
These are: Food conservation, the
diversion of grain from alcohol to
food and of alcohol from beverage
uses to military and industrial uses;
the freeing of the cold storage plants
of breweries for food storage; the di
version of labor from the production
of alcoholic beverages to military or
industrial purposes; the prevention of
certain disabling and disreputable
diseases, and improvements in indus

the actions of Grand Lodges there is
seldom visible any of the special
