trimming adds its quota of smartness to the trig lines of the '.just right frock. The white broadc1oth which is used for the bands makes an eff fective contrast for the dark, blue gabardine. Two large wooden but tons in blue and white form an at fractive excuse for the bound, but tonholes. Note the modish effect of the long line over the shoulders and sleeves.

FRIDAY, MAY 2S. 1920
II is the duty OF a debtor to pay
a debt without waiting for de-
mand. Encyclopedia Britannica.
WHO KILLED STRONG DRINK?

In commenting upon the passing oi
John BarleycCrn and his nefarious In
fluences the editor Of the Durant
Democrat states most truly, that the
temperance lecturers, big and small,
were not responsible, in the main'
for the adoption of the national pro
hibition amendment, but that the de
mand of public sentiment was the
real factor which brought about the
elimination. -
The editor of the Democrat is un-
questionably and undeniably right.
Without the demand of the public,
without the cry of general sentiment
the United States, today, would be
fostering with the saloon evil, that
evil which dominated the politics ot
the nation, state by state, for years
and enabled the saloon owners 10 live
off the tears Of drunkards wives ana
children, while they named the men
who were elected to office, men who
paid their political debts by epactlng
laws which enabled the dive-keepers
and rum-makers to transact their IL
legitimate business.
While it is possible that many
good men espoused the cause Of tenn
perarce and honestly fought strong
drink from the lecture platform. 1t
is, at the same time, unfortunately
true that hundreds Of temperance
lecturers followed their callings be-
cause they found it easier to live in
comfort from the moneys given by
the wives Of drink.wrecked homes
than it would have been to have lived
from the sweat of toll.
While some good men and many
women. honest in their intentions and
firm in the integrity Of their beliefs
championed the cause of prohibition
from the lecture platforms and IN
the columns of the religious and dry"
newspapers, truth compels the adj
mission that their efforts, unsupport-
ed by the public sentiment which
oyer.reaching whiskey traffickers had
themselves created, were not only
futile but really created a reaction
airy effect.
The man who went before the pub
lie, arrayed in funeral habiliments
with long and lanky locks and nasal
accen; TO his speech was, in the nine
cases out of a possible ten, so pal
pabiy non-sincere that his efforts in
behalf of the temperance cause were
worse than wasted.
But when the people of the nation
at last opened their eyes to the ruin
which the curse of strong drink was
causing. when they at last permit
ted themselves to acknowledge the
havoc being wrought, when the en-
ployers ceased TO hire men who
drank and became inebriates, when
the people ceased to vote for and
elect to office men who were owned
or controlled by the liquor interests
then and then only did the tears of
palecheeked women and the sobs OF
ragged children appeal 10 the national
lawmakers and bring about the sub
mission OF the Eighteenth Amend
ment.
