Even if such a day could ever come, it would do nothing of the |sort, 1t modification of the Vol- | stead act is ever to be possible, this much is clear, It can never even be | considered until the law is fully en- forced, Question of Life and Crime “This is not a question of light wine and beer. Tt is not a question of unadulterated liquor of any sort. | 1t 1s a question of stopping the flood of poison drink poured out over this stato and a flood of crime, misfor- | discase and death which rulns and kills' our own people by the thousand, and flows in an evll stream from Pennsylvania into other states as well,"” Explaining that poison bootlog 1i- | quor 1s made out of denatured al- ired on a per nmunity to live H in pe oms in con f lea ipils Col.

The more re- cent storm was not only a heavier fall, but a heavy coating of ice made it more difficult to clear the streets and larger forces with larger pay- | rolls resulted. To date the storm has cost the city about $5,000 and there is still work to be done. | When the first fall of snow came, | the board found itself without funds to clear the streets. At the recom- mendation of the hoard of finance and taxation, the common council ordered a transfer of $10,000 from | the emergency account to the pubiic works ice and snow fund, It now appears that this amount will be adequate to the ci needs for this year unless more storms occur. Approve of Palmers for Town Home Overseers Action on the appoiptment of a superintendent and matron of the town farm was postponed by the charlty board at a meeting yester- day afternoon, to permit the appii-| cants an opportunity of personal in- | terv with the charity commis- sloners. This will take place next Monday and appointment will be made at that time, It now appears that Mr. and Mrs. G. Waite Palmer, former superin- | tendent and matron, respectively, | {will receive the appointment, three | commissioners having spoken in | favor of that selection. There are five commissioners. The Palmers held office between 1918 and 1920 and the present com- missioners are satisfled with their record at the town institution. Chairman Frank Riley and Commis- sloners Jameés A, Coyle and Rev. Dr. | John E. Klingberg expressed them- | selves as favorable to the Palmers, | and Commissioner Klingberg sald | the appointment of John Magee, an- | other applicant, would also meet mn\ approval if the hoard Baw fit name hin, Dr. Klingberg will not attend next Monday's meeting.
