They can be reasoned with. just as

Too frequently the fathers and moth

Still more can be done by throwing

such associations. The thing to do is
to organize better comradeships. Girls

tions will give them a touch OF re-
finement that will protect them from

1t to license the manufacture and sale

statement in Montrose to a number OF
witnesses. that at the dance at the
Delta Armory Saturday evening he
saw a dozen men under the influence
of liquor and that one man was SO
"soused" that he had to be carried of
the floor.
The Montrose Press reported these
statements and stated that II they
were untrue he should be compelled
to stop making such. AS soon as word
reached Delta Thurman Blackburn
who directs the orchestra, and Ser
geant Kelly caretaker of the armory
got exceedingly busy and planned tc
interview the gentleman.
Perhaps he became alarmed wher
he saw the article in print, Tor aftei
supper he called up Mr.. Blackburn by
phone and attempted to deny the
story. Mr.. Blackburn assured him
that he expected to go to Montrost
next day and advised Mr.. Steinberg t.
stand hitched" until that time.
The author of the story then wen

point he went to the home OF Mr.
