' r FORM FEDERATION UNIT IN KIN LOSS One can take for granted that alcoholic beverages have jn them the likelihood. of creating a nuis ance in any environment and un/ der any- law. There is no evidence’ that the nuisance is greater, under the Canada Temperance Act than under the Liquor Control Act. There is bootlegging under the one act and there is bootlegging under the other act. Minors are getting liqudr under both acts. If does not make sense at all to cry down our Huron. .County arid its Temperance Act and clamour for the.. Ontario Liquor Control Act with its multiplying Outlets. There is not the slightest promise or hope that suchra change would improve conditions in Huron; No thing could be . more incredible than' that more outlets would mean less drinking or less nuis ance caused by liquor. The Huron Temperance Federation' believes in the Canada Temperance/Act. —Advt. ' ■ ■ : The Registered Music Teachers Association, Huron Co.
