less beauty.
The artist with his great skill an
his knowledge of the beauties of ma
? ture could not put upon canvas any
| thing that would compare with tn
scenery prevalent today.
r The sun as it scatters its ray
? upon the scene, brings out so mucl
} beauty, and stamps upon the ic
! hanging from the trees, cOlOrinl
} that can only be matched by a rain
bow on summer eve.
st. Patrick's Day, which some
times gives us storms, which WI
dread, but today we are enjoying thu
things surrounding us, with tina
pleasure that comes to a satisfied
mind.
We thank the patron saint of Ire
land, for what he has given us to-
day. We hope he succeeded in driV-
ing all the snakes out of Ireland but
we do know that the day which is
with us is wonderful and hard to
beat. When speaking of the scenes OF
splendOr which it unfOlds
Hark! Do hear sleigh bills ring
ing?
Prohibition
Many writer's at the present time
are saying many things about pro-
bibitiOn.
Some say that it will have no part
in making the platforms of either
the Democratic or Republican par
ty, and as an issue will not be men,
toned.
Some one will have to put muz-
zle on DR.. Clarence True Wilson and
F. Scott Mcbride, or else they will
have the prohibition planks in both
platforms with President Hoover as
the candidate of the Republican par
ty and Senator Robinson as the can
didate for the Democratic party.
The prohibition question will not
down. 1t has got to go before the
people at large for u decision. What
are the drys afraid of. We are sure
they would win in fair and square
battle at the polls. We may be
wrong, but if we had the power we
would take up the challenge Of the
vets and decide for all time to
come whether or not, prohibition
has come to stay.
