COMMUNITY SINGING

The Journal last week did not tell
of the very satisfactory meeting in
the Methodist church on Sunday eve
ming, March 23rd. The house was fill
ed and the singing greatly enjoyed.
Miss Sophia Beebe again led, with
Miss Edith Shaw at the organ. We
are certainly to be congratulated up
on having the assistance Of two such
gifted, we'll trained leaders. 1t is not
surprising that crowds flock to take
advantage of such a rare opportun-
ity.
On next Sunday evening the COM
munity will gather at the Baptist
church for another such enjoyable oc-
casion. Do not miss it. Urging at
tendance, however, is unnecessary, as
the community singing is growing in
popularity, even though at the first
gathering there were nearly two hun
bred present.

John is standing guard out there
along the front line OF freedom, no

He is enjoying, as much as one in
service may, the fruits of victory. He
is sleeping in the open instead of in
dug out. He is having three meals
a day instead of snack betw cen bonn
bardments He's as comfortable as it
! is possible for him to be and meet the
demands of his duty.
Uncle Sam must pay his passage
home, must see that he is safely cared
for until returned.
John must be cared for in Germany;
he must be taken care of when he
gets back.
John and some 100000 Of his COM
rades won peace for us. Protected
our liberties, kept us from enslave-
ment and the paying of tribute, main
tanned the national honor.
And we must not forget the debt we
owe them now. II is a debt of honor
such as the United States never yet
failed to meet
Uncle Sam needs many billions of
dollars to finish his war job and to re-
iuvenate the hating American indus
tries. America has a greater com
mercial opportunity now than, ever in
her history. But Uncle Sam must pave
the way; must make prompt payment
on delayed accounts; must finish his
shipping plan.
But he cannot do this without help
of all the people.

Practically all that money had been

cording to Americans who have in
YES igated liquor conditions in the Dor
der state. open saloons are prohtb-
tied by Sonora state laws, hut little
or no effort has been made by the
authorities to curtail Illicit liquor traf-
fic, they say:
Cognizance of the situation has been
taken by he authorities however, TO
the extent that a bin has been intro
duced in the state chamber Of depu-
ties permitting the establishment OF
omen saloons for the sale of light
wines and beer under strict state ~
pervision. The bill proposes limiting
the number of saloons in accordance
with the population and the payment
Of high state and municipal licenses.
Well Informed MeXlcanS belleFe
that saloons will return under the
proposed new law, as they contend
that while Gen. +. Elias Gales, mill

yoca,c Of prohibition, he would prefer
the lcgalizing o. the liquor trattlc
with the consequent TC\Fllu'' w ''i''

The liquor situation in Aqua Prieta
is troublesome one to the better
class of sonora MeNicans and resi-
dents of Douglas and other border
towns. 1t is pointed out that Aqua
Pricta offers easy access to anyone
in Douglas who desires to obtain lid
