CREDO.

BY A WORKINGMAN

I believe in safety first. Get the liquor traffic off the highway of life.

I believe in a better standard of living, in all the world’s good things; but am beginning to doubt if booze, in the end, is a good thing.

I believe in being happy naturally; in having a good time “the night before,” without “the morning, after.” Although I can take a drink and let it alone, I believe it would bo better out of the way of those who cannot.

I am beginning to believe booze is the killjoy, and as a medicine whisky or wine is a dud, for the weight of medical opinion is against alcohol taken promiscuously. I believe in giving my boys a better chance in life. lam not a wowser, nor a crank, but just a plain citizen.

I believe in a fair deal for women and children which “booze” never gives. I believe in eommonsense, which booze never talks. “Proliib.” and “Reformers” notwithstanding, my own eommonsense tells me that Uncle Sam is on a good thing. He sticks to it.

I believe that the U.'S.A. elections will show that the people are determined to maintain Prohibition, thus proving the liquor traffic propaganda to be entirely false and misleading. —Advt. CITIZEN.
