such an order would have meant
changing the laws and customs oi

Father Dufrey, beloved priest Of the
Rainbow Division, who went into the

swivel chairs and drawing fat sal
aries, were trying to take wine away
from the boys. has this to say:

thought many times the money OF the
trustees fund could have been put to
no better use than in rolling keg OF
wine down every company's street.

posed to prohibition of light wines
