TILE VOICE OF TEMPERANCE This "Voice" recently told an in- teresting and startling percentage story about increasing drinking and crime in Canada. Here follow other percentages, just a few, but they tell a story of an increasing realization, in Ontario at least of the need for action. In 1953 there were 26 local option votes held. A "No" vote was recorded in 21, or 80 per of these. The actual percentage of people voting against additional outlets for legal sale was 53. In votes on cocktail bars during the period 1947-1953, 33 out of 60, or 55 per cent were "No" votes, These votes, a practical test of temperance sentiment in Ontario, are encouraging, especial- ly when it is recalled that the trade brings on votes only where they feel confident of success. At the same time it should be noted that our temperance forces, Do- minion, Provincial and County, are alive as perhaps never before to the situation, The people of the churches especially are co-operat- ing in greater numbers than ever. Herein lies the main hope for suc- cess in the crusade against the liquor evil This advertisement is inserted by the Huron County Temperance Federation. •. 19-b C Bitr, FIELD Mr. and Mrs. Vic Hargreaves spent the weekend in Aylmer.
