HAVE LABORED 100
YEARS AGAINST LIQUOR

The w. c. T. U. public meeting at
the school house Friday evening was
not as largely attended as had been
hoped for but those who were there
enjoyed a good and instructive pro-
gram.
Rev. w. C. A. Wallar of the Anti
Saloon League of Minnesota, who was
the principal speaker, chose as his
subject "The Evolution of Prohibi-
ton. He stated that the prohibition
movement started way back in 1896
101 years ago, in this country. Ly-
man Beecher, New England preach
er, was a great leader in the move
ment. Indians were fooled by the
use of alcohol and Rev. Beecher
fought for justice against liquor, stat
ing already in 1926 that the time is
coming when the law will deal with
it. In 1869 the national Prohibition
party was organized and in 1874 the
w. C. T. U. organized. The speaker
said that the woman's organization
used their brains and taught the
growing generation against the use
of alcohol Francis Willard was a
great leader in this movement.
In 1898 the Anti-Saloon League was
organized which was for men, women
and children. Rev. Wallar stated that
the w. c. T. U. was the mother or
ganization and the Anti-Saloon
League the fighting son. He also
stated that 33 states were already dry
before national prohibition became
law so it was nothing new and that
it had gradually come on.
Mrs. Adella May Norton of Pine
City, district president of the w. c..
T. u, also gave a good talk, stating
that much is being done in the
schools of the country in teaching the
children the effects of alcohol.
Rev. Wallar read part of his adj
dress as follows:
"The struggle against strong drink
is as old as the race. Noah got
drunk, and his sons took the first
step toward ultimate prohibition by
being ashamed of him for it. From
that day to this both the innocent
and the guilty have suffered every
time anybody got drunk.
''In the age-long search for deliver
ance from this dual suffering, the
drinker struggled with himself; and
the non-drinker struggled with his
neighbor Some few were saved
Some were checked to a degree of
moderation. Millions of every gen.

Worst of all, lest sure-footed sorrow
prompt reform, the poison of the cup
left it's tiny flame in blood and tissue

"And throughout all time, too, there
have been those who waited and
watched and worked for remedy-for
some promise of redemption from the
curse. The humane, the devout, the
charitable, the progressive. the patri-
OF, the idealist, the moralist, the
priest, the prophet, the dreamer-all
have studied, suggested, wrought, pied,
preached, prayed, agonized, legislated,

no success, until at last we have

CELEBRATE THE SILVER
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

On Friday, May 9th, Mr.. and Mrs.
Thus Thomson had been married
twenty-five years and the day was
made a memorable one by a number
of their friends calling at their farm
home and celebrating the event. They
were the recipients of a number of
presents, receiving also presents from
relatives at distant points. A song
written especially for the occasion by
a relative in Denmark, was sung by
the visitors. All the folks enjoyed
a good visit and a fine lunch, wish
ing Mr.. and Mrs. Thomson many hap
py returns of the day.
The Thomsens were married in Den
mark where they resided a few years.
They also lived at Minden, Nebr., be-
fore coming to Askov about ten years
ago. They have built up good eighty
acre farm, northwest of town, and are
industrious people. They have no
children. The American joins with
friends in extending congratulations
and best wishes for the future.

HOW OLD ARE YOU!

Age is a quality of mind.
If you have left your dreams behind
If hope is cold,
If you no longer look ahead
If your ambitions fires are dead
Then you are old.
But if from life you take the best
And if in life you keep the jest
If love you hold,
No matter how the years go by
No matter how the birthdays fly
You are not old.

DRY CONFERENCE
URGES new PARTY
Prohibitionists Issue Call to
Voters to Remedy "De-
pIorabIe Conditions"
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH. March 25.--The Pro.
hibition party, at the close OF its ma
| tional conference here late yesterday,
issued through its national chairman,
DIR. Leigh Colvin of New York, a call
to all voters desiring TO remedy what
was termed the present depiorable
party for law enforcement, liquor
traffic suppression. political purifica-
ton and honest and efficient govern
ment.
The party declaration congratulated
the Nation that the partnership OF
the Government in the legalized liquor
traffic has been dissolved. and the
| manufacture and sale OF Intoxicating
drink forever forbidden
1t added that this was made pos.
sibie by the 50-year fight waged by
the party and the w. c. T. u"
Inadequate for Enforcement.
1.-THE non-partisan method. thus
| aided, was able to secure the law"
said DIR. Colvin. But to secure tho
! execution of the will OF the people.
| that is, the enforcement of the law,
the experience of seven years has
proven the non-partisan method to
be totally inadequate. 1t still leaves
in power the old political machines:
| the old liquor domination of politics
| Is undisturbed. 1t still leaves in each
party large number of liquor sym.
| pathfzers, whose votes are still neces.
sary to the party success.
Naturally. under these conditions,
| the law has not been well enforced
and its benefits not fully realized,
| Conditions, greatly improved in the
| first few years. are now growing
worse as the technique OF violation
| is being perfected under the indif-
| ference of old party leadership and
the active propaganda of the wet
elements determined to discredit the
| law. So long as the friends of pro-
hibition continue to divide themselves
between and be swallowed up in the
old parties, no material Improvement
/ can be expected.
Says Old Parties Fail.
| THE failure of the old parties,
without any vital issues between
them, and dominated by the old ma
chine leadership, to enforce prohibit
| ton: to devise any measure OF agri-
cultural relief; their use of enormous
corruption funds In primaries and
elections; the graft, extravaganza and
| tnehiciency on government generally:
the enormous increase in taxation re-
sulting therefrom and many other
evils all cry aloud for a new align
ment in politics"
