COUNCIL OF
NATIONAL
DEFEN Sc

1t Is the opinion of people gener-
ally that the Mass Meeting at the
Court House on Monday did a
great deal of good in the way of
aronsing people to sense of duty
and making them more deter
mined to suppress bootlegging.
The organization as outlined at
that meeting is not complete and
cannot be completed until we have
a meeting of the COMMITTEES men
and organize the com mittee for
the County, and then organize
each voting precinct. 10 per
feet this organization, it is deemed
necessary to call meeting at the
Court House in Mt. Vernon, Feb
ruary 18th. at pm. We shall
expect every man who is on the
Committee whose name appears
elsewhere in this paper to be pres
ent, and the public is cordially In
vited to attend.
This meeting will prove how
general the interest is in suppress
Ing bootlegging, and the absence
of anv of those men who have
been elected on the committee
will INDICATE that they have not
the interest they should have in
this great movement.
The fact that it is apparent
that the United States is going
dry in 1920 is no reason why we
should fold our hands and put
up with the lBwlessness that now
exists waiting for the Govern
ment to control the situation.
When the citizens of Rockcastle
County have done their duty.
bootlegglng will be suppressed
and not until then.

Though an unintentional over
sight, but something for which
we never expect forgiveness, we

previous Friday night. We have
not had anything by local talent
that was lenjoyed more Every
number on the program brought
a hearty applause from the large
crowd which filled the chapel to
its capacity and the meeting of
the Willing Workers, simply
brought down the house. About
SIS in receipts was realized, which
was very satisfactory both for
the cause that it is intended and
to the good women who were very
anxious to make it a success.
All money which goes into the
hands of the Willing Workers is
sure to be used right and for a
noble purpose, and for that rea.

their efforts are rewarded.
