STATEMENT FROM THE
ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE:

To Our Fellow Citizens:
During the war it was thought de-
sirable to prohibit the sale of liquors
to men in the Army and Navy in or
der that their minds might be clear
and their stamina unimpaircd. There
is no question us to the wisdom of that.
Competent authorities state that the
Prohibition promoted srcadiness in the
service. The same prohibition applied
to Civilians at home because Of the
necessity to conserve foodstuffs and
fuel. 1t was thought, further, that
under Prohibition there would be the
maximum of industrial production.
There is general agreement as to the
good effects of Prohibition in all lines
of business.
The Anti-Saloon League champion
ed all the measures of Prohibition be-
fore the people, the legislatures and
Congress. The request from President
Wilson to Bishop Cannon, that the
Anti-Saloon League not insist upon
certain Legislation on one occasion,
proves the leadership Of that organi-
zatlon. 1t will be recalled that the
Anti-Saloon League Immediately ac-
coded to tie Prc.idcnt's wishes. War
Prohibition and Prohibition by Con-
Stltutlonal Amendment are largely the
result of the constant effort of the
Anti-Saloon League through its cam
paign III every part Of the nation. This
IS true also of the measures for en-
forccmcnt In addition to is efforts to
arouse and sustain Il Wholesale and
militant sentiment for Prohibition the
Anti-Saloon League has maintained q
staff Of Legislative experts in Wash
mGton. 1t has been guided by a sense
Of obligation to build securely and
permanently and has not been spccta-
culAr for the sake Of applause.
Now that the War is over some of
our people are inclined to think that
tn" work of the Anti Saloon League
has been accomplished and that ii
should disband We do not think so.
rms is Il serious tin'r in our national
life. Uphcavals Of many kinds, sug-
gcst to us the need for a calm. sober
Judgement N every walk of life. 1t is
desirable. we think, that no effort be
SPARED that may win over to an at
utud" OF sympathetic understanding
an cooperation many thousands of
citizens who feel that they have been
denied Il fundamental right of citizen
ship. Those who violate the law should
be brought to Justice. The campaign
Will build up anew and sustain a SEN

"oH DADDY"

Patrons of the Virginia theater
last evening saw a real show in ooh
Daddy" There was plenty Of pref
ty girls, good principals, real clothes,
snappy music, good effects, in fact
little can be said of a ~disparaging ma
ture of the entire performance. Num-
erous popular song hits were splen-
didly handled by the company and
the encOres were numerous. The en-
semble work was very good. The
girls had splendid voices, and knew
how to S their feet. The opening
chorus alone was sufficient to indi-
cate what was to follow. Then. came
some real solo numbers, dances, com
edy stunts, ETC., which combined to
make "Oh Daddy" three hours of
darn good fun. 1t would not do to
pick out any special Iced, for all were
good and all were VIII received. The
singing Of "Oh By Jingc," however,
by Belva Jane French and the chorus
was especially fine. The "Snoops,"
the "lawyer" take off also CAUGHT the
popular fancy. The "SnowbalP' song
afforded lots of mc-imcnt for the
company and patrons. "For Every
Girl Who's on the Level, There's a
Boy That's on the Square" was put
across in good shape.
Ore of the spectacular numbers
was "The Rainbow Widow" elabor-
ately gowned and hated with good
music, clever steps and lots of pep.
Jane r. barrow who gave the solo
part of the sketch, was a poor selec-
ton. Some girl less weighty and
with better voice could have scored
a double hit with this selection.
All in all the production was ev-
erything that could be desired
