Last November the citizens decided
things had gone entirely too fas,

providing would pledge TO clean
out tho bootlegsers and gamblers.
"Thc bootleggers of Fairport had
q carefully worked out plan to
escape detection. Most OF tho dives
had an eighthour shit OF lookouts
o. watchmen. As soon as a sus'
picious looking stranger came into
sight, the lookout gave n signal. a
hell rang. the light blinked. and the
hootch was rushed to a secret hid
Ing place. Sometimes during a raid
the bootleggers disrupted the power
plant. putting out every light In
FaIrport. That worked for a while,
but we soon caught onto their
system. ts
much OF the booze was brought
ecross from Canada In airplanes.
Now. however. the airplanes do not
stop In Fairport.
Some OF the caches OF the boot
leggers were amazingly clever. A
fruit store proprietor sold bananas
OF z cents ipiece. Inserted In
stooped out niche in this high
priced variety was small bottle
containing one drink OF hootch.
Needless to say this little fruit
stand did land office business.
Those who couldn't afford hootch-
bananas were accommodated with
lemon extract, tightening drops,
hard cider and dago red.
I'VE have the bootleggers on the
run. as the saying goes, but we
won't stop now until every bit of
hootch in Fairport is confiscated."
