BORROWING Wisdom.

Not always have the disciples Of
Robert Burns, the Scotch peasant and
poet, borrowed theiD wisdom from the
master and eschewed his follies.

Of social mirtl been put, with the role
forced upon him of select patron Of
the registering and soaking crew who
find an excuse for bibulous excuses
In Tam o'Shanter and Scotch Drink,

FORGING NATIONAL PROHIBITION

The Emergency Army Law expressly forbids the
sale of liquor to officers or soldiers IN UNIFORM
In defiance of that law a Philadelphia bar sofa
drinks to soldiers and marines until they became
drunk and riotous and the police had to be called.
In this case ignorance of the law could not be
pleaded, for the bar proprietor provided busters
drinking.
The contempt saloon men have shown Tor law
has been the greatest aid prOhibitionists have had
in their fight against the liquor traffic. They
have become by their actions ard seemingly
by their own choice, outlaws They have turned
against themselves many persons who do not De-
lieve in the principle of prohibition-of morality
enforced by law-but who other way to
break up the alliance between liquor, vice and
political gangsters
With the country the verge of stopping the
war saloon men, it seems, cannot restrain their
passion for lawlessness. This nation certainly is
in no mood to allow liquor which is admittedly
a waste of foodstuffs and of human vitality, to
interfere even with the morale of it's armed forces
If the saloon resort to subterfuge to evade
the law against selling liquor to soldiers it will
be difficult to enforce the law and it 1T is found
that the law is not sufficient remedy the next
thing will be the closing of the distilleries and
breweries as a measure.
And when that is done the saloon men will be
be annihilated, just as they have wondered why
prohibition sentiment has grown in the face OF
their trickery and defiance.-Kansas City Star.

HOSPITAL NOTES

Mothers Day at the Red Lake Hospital was OBJ
served on June 2. Sixteen mothers and their
babies attended. Dr. Favour gave talk to the
mothers on the subject of infant feeding, after
which lunch served This first mothers
meeting proved great success and all seemed
to enjoy the affair.
Literature in the form of pamphlets was given
out, one on infant and one on tuberculosis.
The Minnesota baby welfare material and the
tuberculosis exhibit was used in connection with
this meeting.
It is the earnest wish of all the Hospital en-
ployees, including the doctor, that we can again
have another mothers meeting at which even
more of the mothers come.
The doctor in his talk laid special emphasis on
the need of cows milk in the diet of children
during the second and third years. All were
urged to try and keep COWS, also to use the milk
in preparing other foods, custards, junkets, pud-
dings and the various cooking that could be done
say with sour milk, thus saving the money spent
on baking powder. The general principles of in
FAINT feeding briefly alluded to and all mothers
who could not their babies were urged to
get from the doctor the proper method of mix
ing the food for the different ages.
The infant welfare work this reservation is
we'll started. Nine mothers have awaited them
selves of the hospital obstetric service.
Mrs. Tutte, who lives the agency, has
been a patient at the hospital. She operated
by DR.. Favour and has so lar recovered that
she will soon be able to go home.
Mrs. Otto Morrison has been at the hospital
She is now the proud mother of a big baby boy
Mr. and Mrs. Morrison to be congratulated on
the arrival.
Mr. Lussier's boy, Paul, is slowly recovering
from the effects of very severe attack of pneu-
monia.
Mr.. VIM Bealieu's girl Florence, has been op-
Grated on by DR.. Favour. She is getting along
nicely and is able to be about and go out
of doors some.
Sophie and Willie Hudson from Leech Lake are
at the hospital. They have come for ear treat
ment
Mrs. James Clark who lives Redby, has
