Business has not been organized there
vet The fishing schooners touching
these islands have to take such liquor as
the dealers may have. To-day there
may be much Scotch on hand. To-mor-
row it may be rye or champagne.
But the automobile traffic out of
Quebec and Montreal is fiourishing. IT is
now organized to point far higher than
it ever has been. Incidentally, the new
liquor laws in the province of Quebec
have given birth TO an entirely new in
dustria offshoot of the traffic.
This new law says that one may buy but
one bottle a day from a dealer and that
this bottle may not be consumed on the
premises where purchased. Jones, a
bootlegger. overcomes this by establish
ing himself in a large building adjoining
garage. He sends out the call for
less citizens-Canadian and Americans
who go forth buying bottle here and
bottle there. For each bottle thus
fetched to Jones the purchasers receive
ten or fifteen cents.
Smith. a purchaser. may buy his daily
bottle of rum at the Dominion Liquor
Companyst 81 stores, and continue on to pur-
chase other single bottles at Freshfelds
