Some people think that turning
over a new leaf" or some other kind
Of character reform, is sufficient to
take away the blight Of sin. It takes
more than the covering up of bad
report card to make bad boy good
one. What God does is to blot out our
past sin and then give US new ma
ture and life through His grace, in
Jesus Christ, on the ground Of the
death of Christ as our saviour.
Christ could not. sin, but He could
and did become sin for our salvation.

SALES
UNDER FIRE

Banning of liquor sales in combi-
nation stores that deal in other
merchandise, and restriction of
drug store sales to bonded liquor
on doctor prescriptions, will be
asked in Congress by the Exclusive
Liquor Dealers Association, it was
revealed today. The proposals
would affect only the District.
Pool buying of liquor in whole
sale lots in Baltimore and other
cities by consumers living in the
district also will be attacked in
Congress. Attorney Mauel j. Davis,
counsel for the association said.
Through this system. he said, the
District is losing thousands of dol
lars in taxes.
The association will propose that
liquor stores be permitted sales
from a. m. to 10 p. m. from Mon
day to Friday. inclusive. and from
8 a. m. to midnight Saturday.
Attorney Davis explained the
complaint against liquor sales in
combination stores was based on
the belief the sales permitted
minors to come in contact with
liquor. made possible the viola
ton of the Sunday closing rule,
and constituted unfair competi-
ton in that the stores we're not
obliged to hire extra help when
they added liquor to their stocks.

APPROVAL To
RELIEF BONDS

The voters should go to the polls
November 6, in a united effort to
put over the $24,000,000 relief bond
issue which was proposed at the re
quest of the National Relief Ad,
ministration.
Party politics should be forgotten
in this hour of despair and suffer
ing.
The proposed bond issue is the
best method yet offered to raise the
funds which are necessary to car
ry on the relief work needed in Cali
fornia this winter. BY voting the
S24, 900. 900 we become eligible to re
ceive $42,OO0,000 from the federal
government.
1 believe that the national and
the state administrations should be
heartily supported in this matter.
