MAKING LIQUOR IN THE
BRlNKLEY TERRITORY

Ii the men who advertise to sell
outfits and receipts for MAX
ing liquor at home have sense
of humor we expect they are
laughing themselves sick by
this time. For nothing that has
been said or done in connection
with prohibition is more ridicu-
lOus than this talk about MAX
ing liquor at home. And yet
we expect that within fifty miles
of Brinkley there's more than
one fellow trying it already.
In the first place the liquor
habit was largely a matter Of
sociability. No man ever ac-
CURED the drink habit at home,
Or when alone, and even after
the habit became fixed few men
cared about it unless they were
drinking with friends, or in a
place where others were drink
ing. In the next place it is too
much trouble to make liquor at
nome for it to become popular.
Fellows who started out to do
their own brewing are now said
TO be laughing at their attempt
as joke on themselves, and as
time goes on We'll hear less and
less of this home brewing prop
osition.
With the open saloon remoy-
Ell, with the danger of consum-
ing liquor sold by the bootleg
ger made more apparent as the
Jays go by, men are simply go
ing to cease making any at
Tempt to secure, liquor and pro-
mDltion will settle down over
the land. The consumption OF
alcohol in this country will, and
Almost before we realize it, be-
come only a memory.
Then watch out" There's
no way to estimate the real
prosperity that all America will
nave and hence, even with the
H. Z. of L. and the High Living.
'here's no way of figuring how
many more millions of dollars
'here's going to be because of
prohibition Think of it.
