He stared back at the closed door,

himself for being such a blame fool.
He felt vague suspicion that he had
acted foollshly and that the girl was
amused at his awkward embarrass-
meht. The interview had proven al
tOgther different from what he had
antlclpated;' : the tears he had come to
wipe away were conspicuous by their
absence, and instead OF bringing COM
fort and courage to an extremely NOR
tilted young lady. he had found her
filled with merrlment over the affair
and quite Indifferent rs to Its outcome.
She was different from anything he
had previously conceived He had
confidently expected TO encounter a ra-
ther ordinary young woman of the com.
mohplace frontier type-the kind lie
had known for years.
She had proven herself nothing like
what he had conceived She had been
smiling and self-possessed, mocklng
him with her good humor and treating
the whole affair as joke. He was

In her estimation; and he had actual,

Big Piece of Hypocrisy"
 Prohibition Is Ass ailed

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 5.-Detroit church folk today had not recovered from the shock they received yester' day when Rev B. w. Pullinger, of Grace Episcopal Church. denounced prohibition as "a big piece of hypoc. risy."
 Tobacco bans and the advent of strict Puritan blue laws were fore seen by the Episcopal rector if the prohibitionists are allowed to have free rein.
 '-To adopt prohibition is to pass g vote of censure upon the acts and teachings of Jesus Christ" was the phrase employed by Rev. MT Pulling CT to sum up his charges that Ameri can liberty was being abridged by the drys; that lawlessness was be- coming beyond control; that hypoc risy was the byword of every home where liquor was brewed illicitly, and that spiteful grudges would be whetted and fostered if the "spy sys tenn" of Roy A. Haynes. Federal Pro hibition Commissioner, were adopted
 Dealing first with the Biblical question in the wine-making dispute Rev. Mir. Pullinger declared:
 ''It was not grape juice that Chrisi made; it was good for the palate and the wedding guests said: 'Ye have kept the best for the last To main tain any other interpretation of this incident is but to cloak oneself ir hypocrisy.

CANADA VOTES TOMORROW ON
 TARIFF ISSUES
Apprehension Feared Canada May Fall Under Econ
 onic Domination. PREMIER MEIGHEN OUT FOR PROTECTIVE TARIFF Three Opposition Parties Are Urging Modified Tariff
 System In Canada.

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec .5.-The tar ic again looms up as the big issue in the Canadian elections to be held tomorrow to choose a new Federal Parliament for the Dominion. In that respect, the situation is a repetition of that of 1911, the last normal general election held in Canada when the political struggle was de- cided on purely political issues. The
 tariff, then, as now, was the main [ question.
 The election of 1917, the only one since held, was purely a wartime expedient with no political questions involved.
 Another and very interesting and !, important feature oE the 1921 cleo ton is that, for the first timeri in the
 history of the Dominion, women will
 vote on full equality with men. The Election Act of 1919 conferred the full right to vote upon all British ! subjects, men or women, who were 1 21 years old and had lived in Can
 ada at least one year.
 1 Women Vote Tomorrow. | Many thousands of women had
 voted in the election of 1917 but l ther number was limited to the
 wives, mothers, widows and sisters i of soldiers and to army nurses or
 women who were themselves engag-
 ed in the work. This, however, pav-
 ed the way to the full suffrage which the women of Canada will,
 for the first time, exercise next Tuesday

homes you are following the example of Jesus Christ, and the Volstead law is insufficient to convince me that the Great Teacher was wrong.
 When temperance men say that Jesus could not anticipate the future or it's needs they falsify. He knew the future beyond a doubt. It is rub bish to pretend otherwise, if not sac riligious.
 God made men free. Our morality was intended to be that of free men notwithstanding what the prohibi- tionists would try to have us believe on this point.
 "They dare to prate that God made a mistake"
 Keeping up steady denunciation of prohibition, he turned to the en forcement phase of the question and challer d Commissioner Haynes to reduce by one the 100000 home dis tilleries which, he declared Detroit harbored, by any such "tyrannical methods as were outlined during his visit to the city last week"
 Wholesale lawlessness came with prohibition, declared Rev. Mir Pull finger.
 Insisting that alcohol had it's good uses, he stated that "the more the authorities try to drive us to be good the more disregard will we have for the law.
 British Columbia brought back beer and wine without saloons. Why can't We do the same?"
