"We feel,” the editorial from which we quote continues, “and feel strong­ ly, that the easier alcoholic beverages are to obtain, the more will be con­ sumed. We offer no apologies for what may be considered in some quarters as an old-fashioned attitude by a gray-headed editor. He is just gray­ headed enough to remember the days of a liquor store and bar-rooms in five hotels." Girls Shown How To Make Decorations BELGRAVE—The regular meeting of the C.G.I.T. was held in the base­ ment of Knox United Church on Fri­ day evening. Marlene Purdon was in charge of the worship service and Lois Cook led in prayer. Everyone joined in singing the C.G.I.T. song. Reports were given by the secretary and treas­ urer.

The group offered to decorate the Christmas tree and Sunday School room for the Sunday School concert on December 22. The girls were taught at this meeting how to tie the C.G.I.T, friendship tie. Part of the meeting was taken up with practice for the vesper service to be held on December 18.
