REVERSING DARWIN

The dour fundamentalst guild
Who have sputtered at science so long,
With exceeding relief will be filled
Upon learning that Darwin was wrong.
For scholars now freely maintain
AS the long gone by cons they scan,
That cit seems to them perfectly plain
That the monkey descended from man.
The ape with the saturnine face
Which is somewhat unpleasant to see,
Has not any right to a place
AT the top of our family tree.
And doubtless he knows in his heart
AS he turks in his leaf covered bower
And lodges the. Hottentot's dart
That he's merely human, gone sour.
An outcast from family and home
Compelled through the tropical rain
And the shadowy jungles to roam
Perhaps he descended from Cain,
And was formed by the life which he led
AS he wandered and wandered away
To fight with the beas; ror his bread
TO the creature we cape at today
He is lacking in beauty and sense
He only encumbers the earth
But he doesn't make any pretense
OF being ashamed of his birth.
And though he may inwardly grieve
At this story the scientists tell
We nevertheless must believe
He will take the bad news pretty WE'LL

Dear Mr.. Editor:

Dear Mr.. Editor:
Will you give me space to call
attention to the fact that the So
called success of the vets in many
of the recent elections is really u
dry victory? All the election has
proven is that New York state
Chicago, lie and San Francisco,
Calf, remain wet, but with reduced
chances Of influencing national legs
iation.
Missouri, California, Colorado ard
Montaha were the only states with
u legal referendum on the liquor
laws, and in the first three states the
dry majorties were tremendous,
Montana alone repeating the state
law. Chicago, an outstanding wet
spot, supported George e. Brennan
on his personal promise to give the
people wine and beer and was de-
feated by more than goo, 900 dry votes
cast against him.
Illinois had a useless referendum
which attracted 100000 wet votes
with more than 1000 drys failing to
vote at all. The country elected 30
senator's, all dry except nine, and OF
the 435 members of the house, 296
have dry records. Massachusetts
elected a bone-dry governor, and
New Yorks senatorial election is a
tremendous blow to near-sighted re-
publicans who want to pledge the
G. o. p. to the vets.
In the dry south and dry middle
west election results VIII tighten
state and community dry laws. The
only real wet victory is Ino repeat
Of the state liquor laws in Montana.
Bootleggers and moonshiners may
now operate in Montana without in
reference by the police and the ma
tion now has the spectacle of state
without a penalty even for selling
liquor to minors. Let the Associa-
tion against Prohibition take full
responsibility, for the results.
Yours very truly,
MRS. CHARLES LONG,
President, w c. T. U
MRS. r. c. ARNOLD,
Secretary, w. G. L. U.
