LIQUOR CONSUMPTION
DECREASES IN SWEDEN
Drinking Cut One-Half by Ra-
tioning System; Inebri-
ates Fewer,
lBy Associated Press.l

STOCKHOLM. Feb. 1.-THE con-
sumption OF Intoxicating liquors in
Sweden has been reduced nearly so
per cent since the beginning OF 1914
when Sweden's liquor rationlng sys-
tenn went into effect. This is shown
by the latest official reports which
state that the reduction took place
without absolutely excluding any one
from the use OF alcoholic stimuiants
except those who abused the law by
drinking to excess.
Under the Swedish rationing sys-
tenn individuals are given cards upon
which they can obtain given
amount OF distilled liquor or wines
The maximum amount allowed to any
individual is about seven and one
hnif points per month, and this is
allowed to married men. Married
women receive no allowance except
from their husbands cards. while UNI
married women receive as low as one
and one-half pints per month. On
special occasions, such as weddings
or festivities. these allowances are
increased if requested.
The rationing cards are revoked in
the case of individuals convicted of
drunkenness. The official report
states that the number OF inebriates
whose licenses have been taken away
Rave decreased enormously. In 1918
the number of inebriatcs who lost their
licenses to buy Intoxlcapts was 50.4a
persons per thousands: while In 1921
only 1866 persons per thousand were
found guilty of drunkenness.
The consumption OF distilled
liquors in Sweden IN 1913 amounted
to S.541.04S liters. u liter being q
trihe less than two pints. In 1921
the Swedish people used 4.92o.4OO
liters.
Meantime the population has in
creased from 100000 to 100000.

checks which have been cashed at
various banks during the past few
weeks. He supplied signatures with

an amateur in recognizing writing to
be almost exact fac SMILES of the
writing upon the forged checks, but
Young stoutly maintains that he has
issued no such checks. He was found
TO be in possession of an almost new
Ford car. and upon checking up on
the same officials found that a car
with the corresponding engine and
other numbers had been shipped by
the Ford people to Barneveld and
there sold, only to be stolen from in

AS to the Hospital

l beg to correct a statement which
you, no doubt, unwittingly made in
last nights issue of your paper, in
reference to the proposed Sisters
hospital for Baraboo.
1t was stated that if the project
went through, the hospital would be
in charge of the Catholic church.
If it is logical to conclude, that be-
cause the sisters are Catholic, the
hospital would be in charge o. the
Catholic church, then 1t would re
equally logical to assume tat since
you are Protestant, the paper which
you publish is in char ge of the
Protestant church. a statement which
y3u would resent, and which would
not feel justified in making.
Kindly publish this communication
Kindly publish this communication
in today's paper, and oblige,
Yours sincerely,

Concerning Election

Well l was down Tuesday April 4
and cast my vote and wondered il
it was the refining influence of the
ladies that gave a different aspect
to everything in general.
In the olden days when election
day arrived the men folks would
arise earlier in the morning. do the
chores, shave and grease their boots
and give Ma a few directions about
caring for things while they were
gone. These responsibilities off their
minds away they went with old dob
bin for an all day session. 1t was a
good thing the horses knew the road
in those days as the voters were
all pretty well filled with good whis-
key by the prospective office seek
ers about the time they were ready
to go home The one who had the
most money for electioneering at the
bar would win out every time.
Ma would usually have to assist
i'll preparing the horse for the night
when Pa arrived home. On such oc-
casions the master would not have
a great deal to say the following day.
