Bar Closes; Bar Opens

Whether or not the little
Steamer plying on Lake Mem
phremagog shall be allowed
to continue to operate a bar on
the lake, seal it up and go to
Newport for a cargo of the
thirsty who wish to shake the
shackles of the Volstead Act,is
being thoroughly investigated
by District Attorney Bullard
and other federal officers.
During the summer the steam
er, which is owned in Canada,
has made two trips a day to
Newport. 1t would load up
with passengers and go north
ward on the lake. AS soon as
the international boundary line
between the United States and
Canada was crossed the bar
would be opened as the boat
carries a Canadian license. The
passengers could have anything
they like over the bar and after
getting loaded up with the
liquor, would return to New
port. On crossing the line the
customs officers would seal up
the bar and no goods would BIZ
sold in the United States.
The government is raising
the question as to whether 9
recent decision of the attorney
of the United States will effec'
the liquor traffic on Lake Mem
phremagog and whether or NO
a bar, operated in Canadian
waters can be closed at thu
boundary and the liquor ans
boat be protected from seizur,
in the United States under thu
Volstead Act.

SaiG the cake to the pie
We're the best, you and |,
Of all there is on the the table.
You can take all you like,
For we're not ON a strike;
And pay for it--what yo're able.
Said the salad to me:
''I've been out on a spree
And my face looks little soggy
There never was placed
Salad finer to taste,
Than this one we fancied was
groggy.
The beans and the bread,
Must sit at the head,
Fer they stand by like a friend
One mods to the other,
And says that "I'd ruther
This sale never'd come to an
end"
The doughnuts and rolls
Will help save our souls,
All churches, being invited;
So when we go yonder,
Well not need to wonder:
If later, We'll all be united.
