NOT UNLAWFUL
TO POSSESS
HARD CIDER

Use of cider in the home by its
manufactures, even after it has be-
come Intoxicating, is lawful and with
out the bounds of the prohibition en-
forcement act, according to an
opinion submitted to the secretary
of the treasury by U. S. Attorney
General Palmer
The opinion is in conflict with the
regulations of the bureau of internal
revenue, which state home made cider
must be notwithstanding in fact
although not necessarily containing less
than 70 percent alcohol.
Secretary Houston of the treasury
department asked for an opinion
as to whether the term "non-in-
toxicating cider and fruit juices
means non-into xicating in fact or con-
taing less than y percent alcohol.
The phrase occurs in section 20 of the
prohibition act which permits manu-
facture of Notwithstanding cider for
use in the home without a permit.
In answer, the attorney general held
that the expression meant containing
less than y percent, but added
"'In view, however, of what [ UNI
derstand section 20 to mean, L am
sure it would be misleading for me to
content myself with this direct answer
to your question.
Congress intended by section % to
prohibit the sale, but not the manu-
facture of Intoxicating cider for use in
the home, the opinion said.
"Congress seems to have recognized !
the peculiar nature of cider the at |
torney general declared. ''Fermenta-
ton very shortly sets in, producing al
cohol and all that is necessary to con-
vert the cider into an intoxicating
liquor is the lapse of a short time.
Broadly speaking. one who has
cider which has not yet
had time to ferment has not manu-
featured Intoxicating liquor.
Section 20 has sought to make 1t
lear, it was not intended that one

CIR Earth 9aa Grnrun OH

The earth has grown old with It's burden Of care
But at Christmas it always is young;
The heart of the jewel burns lustrous and fair
And its soul full of music breaks forth the air.
When the song of the angels is sung.
1t is coming old earth, it is coming tonight
On the snowfakes that cover thy sod
The feet of the Christ Child fall gentle and white
And the voice Of the Christ Child tells out with delight
That mankind are the children of God.
The feet of the humblest may walk in the field
Where the feet of the hottest have trod
This, this is the marvel to mortals revealed
When the silvery trumpets of Christmas have peaed
That mankind are the children of God
