STRUNG DRINK - Not For The Wise!
Recently Time magazine printed a ,cover picture of one of
lour hear Barons. Inside we found a special feature article on th,
. man, '.'ho is the head of e big brewing company. Much was
said of his boundless energy, his tireless efforts, and his re-
search work to give the Americans better beer. It all sounded
pretty goon. And some of the advertisements we see in the
rnagaziees look pretty goo too.. You've all seen advertisements
like the. contented family sharing bottles, and the caption bo-
neath the picture -- '`In this free country of ours, ,beer.belongs
--Enke it." Or you 'neve seen advertisements about people
