Betty Dozzell, 701 w. 10th is il

The drunk tpys are still keeping
the streets cleaned ard the chance
boys are still k,eping the city
treasury up. Speaking of DRINKS,
| am reminded of the good anti
alcoholic people who are starting
out on their campaign to dry 10

himself at the mercy of the court
on the grounds that he was an CT

increase violation by trying to re-.
peal the liquor law and then Won
der why there is so much viola
ton. People are going to &c. what
they want to drink when they
want it, whether it is sold legally
or illegally. The drys should
know that, so what Is really be-
hind the campaign to out law
llqour? We hate to guess.
