Have you done your part in MAX
ing possible the erection of commo-
dious hotel for Edgefeld? If not, get
squarely behind the enterprise and
help to make it success.
The verdicts of the Federal court
are enough to make an unapprehend-
ed distiller sell out lock, stock and
barrel, and thank the good Lord that
he can profit by the fates of others.
