U. %...«inm»imiw««.... .... The question is being asked by many Christian people today, “After repeal—What?" They are greatly .grieved over the return to power of the liquor traffic. Various answers may be given to the question but we believe that much of what was done before Prohibition may be repeated with good effect. For over fifty years the evil effects of alcohol were taught to the children. Declamation con tests and temperance programs were held in which the young took an active part, Many will remember the De morest contests, with silver and gold medals offered to the boy or girl de­ livering the best recitation against strong drink. The evil results of al­ cohol were regularly taught in the public schools. Gospel temperance meetings were held with such speak­ ers as John B. Gough, Francis Mur- phey, John G. Wooley and others and total abstinence pledges were signed by the thousands. A nation-wide cam­ paign of education against drinking intoxicating liquors should be started, in which we could use much of what was used before prohibition. We have not lost everything; we do not have to go back a hundred years and be­ gin over again. God is still with his people. Where do gangsters get their money? Let United States Attorney General Mitchell answer. “In the re­ cent income tax prosecutions, it was developed that, on the average, not more than 20 per cent of the gang­ ster’s revenue came from the liquor traffic, and this /has been diminish­ ing. If this is an indication of gen­ eral conditions, the removal of the il­ licit liquor traffic as a source of rev­ enue would not end gangsterism and racketeering.” . Before -congratulating themselves on this too quick and too sure victory, ■nich they say will bring temper­ ance and revenue and prosperity and heaven down to earth, the wets need to remember that there are - some things which .cannot be repealed. The effects of alcohol cannot be re­ pealed, Whether it is sold in a saloon, a drug store, a restaurant, or a church, the effect of .alcohol on the human system and its affinity for the human brain will be. the same as it has been through the ages. The facts cannot be repealed.' Even the wets admit in their published statements that Prohibition has re­ duced the consumption of liquors fifty per cent# No other remedy ever used has accomplished as much as this.—The National Prohibitionist. Yes, if Prohibition did not reduce the sale and consumption of liquor why did the wets want Prohibition repealed? XENIA, OHIO SMART SHOP 32 South Detroit Xenia, O.

We wish to refute this emphatically and a t the same time explain exactly the status of Cross­ nore School. This isolated and sparsely settled section of the mountains could not furnish enough children in any one locality to make possible a standard high school supported by the state. But they must have a high school. So, in 1917, Crossnore School, Inc., was organized for the purpose of sup­ plementing the little one teacher pub­ lic school then a t Crossnore. One a t a time, teachers were added as the number of grades increased. Many children wanted to come who lived where busses could not travel so a boarding department was necessary. This boarding department is what is now represented by Crossnore School, Inc. The Public School, now called Altamont Consolidated High School, is entirely state supported except for the Bible teachers supplied by Cross- more School, Inc. The boarding de­ partment Crossnore School, Inc., is entirely supported by voluntary gifts 1from its friends, and failing these, it | must close its doors to almost a hun­ d red orphans, and a similar number of under-privileged children who find here a home both during the school ' term, and ifnecessary, all year round. 1 Our biggest source of income is from the sale of old clothes and sec- ond band articles in our sales room. But our stock is very low, and We are in desperate need of supplies. Work and money are coming to our county, through NRS. Won’t you send us alt kinds of old clothes to sell to the people and to bring us money to sup­ port our boarding department? / MARY M. LLOOF, Bus. Mgr. ! Crossnore, N. C.
