None of us who go to church are perfect. Of course, you must leave this man, Cut off from him absolutely, and do not let him know about your plans. It would be best to go to another city, If you have no friends elsewhere, go to the pas- ter of the church you should at- ’ tend and ask him to give you a letter to considerate minister In the city to which you -plan to go.

SMALL. (Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune.) WASHINGTON, Dec, 15.—The “weta" of the new congress are feel- ing their oats to such an extent that they have decided to make a real open fight at the rolls next year for the election of puth men and women to congress. who are pledged to some sort of modification of the Volstead act. The foundations for this fight in the present session The work will be headed, of course, by that stalwart among the anti-prohibitionists, Rep- resentative John Philip Hill, of Maryland, a Republican, Mr. HII! will be supported by both Democrats and Republicans in all his undertakings, giving a non- partisan character to the fight. The “wets” are convinced that they sense at Inst a turning of the tide, or at least a slack water in the onward sweep of prohibition. They believe that the more timid members of congress who do not be- Neve in the drastic provisions of the Volstead act but who voted for it, Are beginning to get back the cour- age of their convictions and may be counted upon to assert themselves At some time in the not too distant future. Evidences of the faflure of the Volstead act in so many respects are being accumulated that at last the timid congressmen are getting a. bit of solid ground on which they can put their feet when they switch over from the super-drys to at least the seml-wets. The battle for modification has by no means been won os yet, but the wets tnke it as n good sign that some of their dry brothers are begin- ning to lose heart over the enforce- ment situation as it exists today and are willing to Isten to the argu- ments of the modificationists. ———_.
