LOOKS LIKE. DRY YEAR.

From the sublime to the ridiculous. or from the ridiculous to the sub lime. according to tn" viewpoint "f the individuals most concerned. may be the phrase applied to the two methods in which the demise of old John RurleNcorn is observed in New Britain. Last evening a local organ izatiun sponsored a "farewelI' party that savored strongly of the days that seem to have gone forever. The Nari- ouS saloons and cafes that had any stock on hand are also said to hay" dispensed with them with free hand. 'ron2ht seven organizations. long uf (iliatcd with the prohibition move ment. will hold d celebration. 2loa t. ing over the downfall of J. E.

 PeruSuIS of metropolitan news papers would lead one to believe that Gotham. long considered Il place of osntinuaI headaches. must have an awful unc'' this morning. Thanks giving. Christmas and New Years Eve brought tales of oStCntatiouS rcvclIN. rep"rt, of which were chief ly notable for lhc amount of money spent in the high priced hotels and cabarvts and for the amount of ''lik- ker" consumed in public. But. press dispatches tell us. last night both the alpha and omega in the line of metropolitan celebrations. Reser- vHtions were sky high. and therefore the demand was greatly stimulatcd for New Workers think little of thincs--eNen celcbrutions--unless they are expensive. IL now remains for uS tu hope that our city cousins will recover from their ''prohibition eve" hArchanaIia in time to get in condi- tion for All Fools Day. which should never II" permitted to slide by with out d roaring jubilee in New York.

Religion forbids the Moham- Ul"dunS from imbihns of the drink that StupriieS. but the American ban ishment of booze is political feature that will be felt for years to come Although the wet interests have ahout given up all hope. it must not be forgotten that the supreme court has moi yet given final decision on the fundamental questions ra ised b% th" opposition. It has upheld war lime prohibition. but it has not given it's ulrinHtum on tomorrOW'S prob l"mS. At least three states. including our own. have failed to ratify.

"'The people of New. Britain are selling their Liberty Bonds at the rate of approximately $2.00O.00O a year. practically all of which is made up of the $50 and $100 denomina tons. The increase in savings oI $2.5OO.OOO in our local banks during the past year is largely offset by this wholesale selling of Liberty Bond. This condition is not only true Of New Britain. but of the entire co''n- try. II is therefore. timely. that the N M C. A. by it's Thrift Campaign Week should imitate the wisdom Of the biblical prophet and urge the people to save during this period Of prosperity sym bolizcd by. the ScNc'1 Tat years and provide for the future, as the seven lean years are certain 70 follow.
 This campaign covers all of the avenues of legitimate saving and also recommends the budget plan as u means Of providing for d more judi rious expenditure. One of the ave nues of saving is q bank account. It's advantaScs and usefulness are of vital importance to the entire comm unity. Aside from providing a safe and con venient place for the savers surplus funds. payable al any time. it is bound to play vital part in his plan *or we'll being and success. If he saves consistently. the time will shortly come when he can buy home or pay off :tS mortgages; means will have been provided for entering into buSi- ness for him self: d reserve fund will have been established for the educa- lion Of his children. These advan- t;rges must surely make a strong ap- peal at this time for consistent savings plan.
 "A savings account is Of benefit 10 the community through the use which the bank makes Of il. There are now deposited in the savings banks throughout the country approx imatelv five billions of dollars, ma:'a up from the small savings Of millions of depositors IL is interesting To know just how the bank employs savings deposits for the benefit of the community in which it is located. Com cree is made up of three fur damental factorS--prOductiOn traus- portatiOn and conSum ption-each of which is aided by the banks by means of the account of the saver. T!i.n farmer needs more money to increase the output of his farm and obtains the amount from the bank on a mort gage; the railroad must maintain and increase it's facilities and in order to do so must sell its bonds which the bank buys: the merchant must haN" room and storehOnScs from which 10 sell and display his goods and jr order 10 provide for this he, too. must borrow.
 "ThuS the saver becomes vital necessity in the economic Well-heinG of his community. If you have moi already opened q bank account. Nou will be doing yourself and your cont munitN mutual service hN starting one during Thrift Week.

And therein is the great loophole. for it does not attempt to designate what is an intoxicating liquor. True, Con sress has passed an act specifying that one half Of one per cent alec hol is intoxicating. But laws have been changed and it is not impossible to repeal and change this designating law. The Constitutional amendment would be just the same as it. is. even if the explanatory law decreed that it required a beverage of more than I or ) or per cent alcoholic con tent to make it intoxicating.
 There has been considerable specu- lation as to whether the Eighteenth Amendment is effective after mid night tonight or is already in effect. 1t seems To be the consensus of opinion that "onights the night, while we ack any specific information. However, it is a slight thing to worry about.
