tells in a most entertaining way  how
Kansas    boarded    the   water    wagon
and the long struggle it  bad to make
the   law   a   success.     Mr.  White   was
born   in   Kansas   some   15   years ago:

is quite well qualified to   explain   the;

lived in a town infested  with saloons
needs no information as to the character   of   the    work    they    perform.
Everybody   recognizes   that   and the
only question is to get rid of them.
"Prohibition," ssys Mr. Whitei "of
course   does   not   prohibit.     Nothing
has hurt the cause of temperance in
this   country   so   seriously as the delusion   that   a   law   ou    the    statute
books will prohibit the sale of liquor
in a city, a county or a state.    A pro

the   unit   of   population   be  large   or |

TRADE TOUR
Of Grand Rapids Association of
Commerce
The wholesale dealers of Grand
Rapids are arranging plans for their
ninth      annual     "Trade      Extention
legislative act.
"'Fine business!' declares all the
good people, 'thank heaven, tbat job
is done." The truth is the job bas
only begun. It takes from one to
five years to get a prohibitory law
passed in a state, it takes a quarter
of a century to enforce it. The people must be willing to endure personal hardships and privations, to
uutiergo contumely and discomfort!
and more less or humiliation for the
cause. Otherwise, without a strong
will, strong and well directed, the
state cannot quit any more than a
man can quit; for something of the
same process goes on in a state that
goes on in a man when he breaks the
to the front when the proper time
arrives. There is no question but
what everyone in and around Clare
has been solicited, or at least has
heard about this contest.    The better

it is au instrument well worth the
