THE GOOD AND Rad
OF THE DRINK DEALER

I, Different persons have different
standards of distinction. I heard of
a new family that moved into a con-
sentative neighborhood. There was
curiosity as 70 VINO and what they
were. One woman asked the garbage
man about the new neighbors. He
said he didn't know. but he could
say they beat the whole neighborhood
for swell swiii" Milwaukee has ire
mendous iron works and mills and
factories but these 60 for nothing.
Its fame foams from swell swill."
The liquor dealer IL not always a
bad man IN other ways. Sometimes
he loves his home. Many time he
Ia generous TO his friends, sometimes
he Is considerable Of the poor. some
times he will obey the law. and ac-
cording to his own standards he al
ways fairly bristies with good points
as nghter. He never sleeps on his
rights. He never weakens under
punishment. He never trusts an
enemy. nor a doubtful friend He
never wobbies in his logic. In the
face OF public policy that sells him
license to poison his countrymen
he naturally despises and ignores the
pussilanimous handicaps imposed
Shut the front door, he works the
side door; close the side door, he
works the back door: bar the back
door. he works the cellar door; drive
him out OF the cellar. he puts the
bottle In his boots. crawls under the
sidewalk and opens a joint.
He knowS-Always.
He keeps posted, he knows what
the law is He knows what the off,
Gals are. He knows every police
man that can be bought. or fooled. or
frightened. He knows every newspa-
per whose columns can be fouled with
lies at SO much a line. He knows the
yellow streak In the Mayor and
preacher breaches. although he doesn't

boys to recruit his dying. prison going
clientele. He knows how every legis-
lator stands on liquor legislation. He
knows the mind. or lack of mind. of
every candidate. He plays the game.
He plays safe. He takes no chances
He has an opinion as to the presi-
dency, but he knows that the Legisia-
ture and the local administration are
the vital things to him and to us.
He Is Democrat. He might be
a Progressive. Call him a Republican
He attends the nominating conven-
ton. It puts on the ticket, by acci-
dent, or intention, an open enemy Of
the trade. His grandfather and his
father were Republicans. He has
never voted any other ticket. He
loves the grand old party OF moral
ideas. What does he do about thai?
He throws up his hat for the ticket.

Not on your life. He knows better.
He respects himself too much He

Declare for Prohibition and Rap st
Louis Business Mems League.
Liquor and it's traffic received a Sc
rious blow when directors of the
Western Retail Implement, Vehicle
and Hardware Association, meeting
in Kansas City, went on record BY
resolution, unanimously and squarely
in favor of prohibition. The asso-
citation has a mem bership of 1900.
and represents dealers in Kansas.
Oklahoma and Missouri.
incidentally. the stand taken by
the so-called Business Mems League
OF st. Louis in reference to the pro-
hibition amendment was made the
subject OF a better paragraph In the
resolutions.
That stand Is declared to be unten-
able, and the directors say that their
experience with prohibition has
taught them that great good has been
accomplished wherever prohibition
has had sway. Business men who
declare otherwise are held to be
spreading unfair and false testimony.

FLAG RAISING AT BRENAU

Gainesville, April 28.-Seldom have
citizens of Gainesville witnessed a
more beautiful and inspiring cere-
mony than that which marked the
raising of the Stars and Stripes
of Brenau College. Well executed
Thursday afternoon on the campus
drills, the firing of salutes and the
presence of large number of the ca
diets of the University of Georgia lent
military atmosphere to the occas-
ion, and the note of patriotism was
very strong in all the addresses.
In order to add to the dignity and
beauty of the flag raising, the annual
states day pageant was combined
with the flag raising ceremony; and
this year, in Difference to the prevail
ing spirit of patriotism, the represen-
tatiyes of the various states organized
insto companies for drill. AS there
are twenty three states represented
in the student body, the maneuvers
were most imposing. All the girls
wore white MILDLY suits and carried
the flag of the United States instead
of guns. They were drilled By H. D.
Williams, of the literary faculty.
After the long line of students had
fallen into military formation before
the flag pole, a group of girls de-
