Every now and then somebody comes along and says you can't trust the people “Ideals have no place at the batlot “You can never hope to make the great mass think.” This is the sort of thing which proves the folly of such pessimism The people do think. It is the greatest tribute to the wisdom and the faith of the men who builded our republic that the years have a strated, and will, we demonstrate more that it is not only theoretically beautiful but practically po: =k they assert f the people box,” demon- believe, and sible as well for the people to safeguard themselves and their fellows against every form of vice and corruption As they are learning in the struggle for prohibition, so they will learn in every other moral issue to ask not “What will it cost?” but “How much will it help?” ee ae a J DAD YOU KNOW TO BE IN STYLE YOU MUST WEAR SAY, MAUD!
