In fact it makes drunkenness "smart‘". We â€"the Brewing Industry â€"submit that the path of moderation is the way to true temperance. This circumstance however does not prevent us from having the same sense of social responsibility as other decent citizens. In fact, to make temperance easy is our only sensible policy, because in a temperate community agitators for prohibition can get no foothold. And we know that in fact only by temperance winning its battle, can we defeat the bootlegger and save this province from the evils he brings. Consider what has already been achieved since the repeal of prohibition . .. Respect for law and order is being restored . .. Secret drinking has been reduced to the minimum . .. Illicit manufacture has been made unprofitable . .. Youth is no longer faced with the temptation to consider lawâ€"breaking clever, drunkenness a distinction! Let us maintain these advantages. Let us not play into the hands of the bootlegger by substituting prohibition for selfâ€"control. ###@04@###%¢¢¢é¢¢#¢¢¢%¢¢%¢ schcol at Porquis Juncticn, each pupi being required to write a poem on the glory of Porquis Junction.

In reply to this letter, enquiry by The Advance this weeks suggests that the town of Timmins is not responsible for any delay, nor has the matter been forgcotten or sidetracked by the town authorities. It seems that there is alâ€" ways a lot of red tape about such a matter and that it takes time before it is finally arranged.
