The answer is in the negative. We could not tape the responsibility of offer• ing any such advice to Prohibitionists who vote in that constituency. At the same time we repeat what we have said before. We conceive it to ba the duty of every man who believes in Prohibition to come now to its support and make it safe and sure. The goal to. wards which men have . been striving for long years is within reach. Sir William Hearst is the political leader who brought it within reach and the man who, if strongly supported on'October 20th, will clinch and secure it. There is an attempt to defeat him. There is a pretty wide- spread desire in his own party to weaken him to an extent that would discredit him, As we see it, therefore, Liberals who believe in Prohibition should support Sir Witham Hearst rather than, Mr. Hartley Dewart, who does not believe in Prohib ition and. would never- do it any service except where circurnstagces compelled hilly() do so, But we cannot imagine that the election of 14r, Herb Lennox in North York Would strenghten the hands of Sir William Hearst in any way, and certainly not where' Pro- hibition was concerned. In fact the best service the people of New York can per- form not only in the interests of Prohib• ition, but of Sir William Hearst and . the public life of the Province, is to defeat Mr. Lennox. • - There we Conservative members of the last L,egature who were not at all in sympathy withlithe Premier's prohibition policy. Some of them have dropped out in this election and have been succeeded by candidates more in line with the course followed by their leader, - Others dict not dropout, but manage somehow to give a seetriitig.a,ssent to the Premier's policy Ai long these 'neu t be included Mr, : Herb Lennox. . On the temperance question he probably stands about where Mr. Hartley Dewart .does - ready to submit to pro hibition ifhe.rnust, but ready to knock it on the head some day if the opportunity occurs. There is no rule 'without its exceptions, If there are any other candidates support- ing Sir William Hearst's . Prohibition pol- icy insincerely and with their tongues in their cheeks they, too, should be voted against as men who if elected would not strengliten,. but weaken, Sir William- Hearst's Prohibition policy. If the obliga- tion is upon. all Prohibitionists to support Sir William Hearst there is also an obli- gation -upon him to offer for their votes candidates who inspire. respect. ,Rist as in the case of Liberals if their natural in- clinations are toward their own party the. obligation is.upon that party to offer for their support a leader of good` faith toward the party's policy, - We would like to say one word of a personal character. In various parts of the Province there are Liberal candidates for whom the Star has done what it could in the past and for whom we now have respect, But Prohib;tion is the great is- sue of this election, and the chief contest is between Sir 'William Hearst and Mr. Hartley Dewart, Each standing. for what he stands for on this main issue, we can take no other course but to advocate that the interests of Prohibition be left in the hands of the Prohibition Premier and not transferred by a change ofGovernment into such. hands as Mr. Dewart's. I4 is to be hoped and expected that some day Under other and more fortunate leadership Liberalism in Ontario will come together again and go foward in the advocacy` of progressive causes," etrang iamptitutiun were need al in the present war for planning attack*; driving arnbu1uncee, aeroplanes, etc, When disease breaks out we netke thatthe , usually the first to take it, is e drinker r a because his system is weakened and dis• eased by alco}lal. As the country does y sat Will to lose and destroy her citizen. ship she must have Prohibition enforced through•aut the Dominion. Many wllo are fond of liittiot• say it is valuable as a nutrition, This is not so, as the average beer contains about four and one-half per -cent nutrition, to consume which one must drink two and one-half per -cent poison, one•cent drubs, and other ingredients and ninety-two per cent water. Doctors say Beer kills quicker, than any other liquor, The strength of a nation depends on her people, therefore prohibition ienecessary if we are not to 'degenerate like the beer -swilling Germans, Before Ontario gained prohibition many young men's lives were wrecked everyday because of the open bar, They became a disgrace to their parents and country and outcasts from society, No one was ' sure of their boy under the old system. We need prohibition if our boys are to become useful and Christian citizens• Those who are fighting prohibition say drink cures their tr ubles, _ Let us con-. tradict them, Drinit never cured a single trouble. It makes a man forget for a few i hours, what his troubles actually are. If he has a family he neglects them and in the end makes more trouble for himself. . In Ontario to -day there are - 125,000 automobiles. The drunken driver of a i car not only endangers his own life, but ) the lives of occupants of other cars, those , who are in horse vehicles and the travel- lers on foot. Therefore Prohibition is i ( beneficial to .all. - 1 FII N0RS M. EN1 1TT, Age 13, BENEFITS OF PROHIBITION TION IN ONTARIO Following is the prize essay which was written by Frances, the 13 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs, T. R. Bennett, Wingham, and entered in competition at wirlgham Fall Fair. Mr. A. L. Posliff, principal of the Wingham Public School, was the judge. Now that the war is over the unpatriotic citizens of Ontario are clamouring for prohibition to be done away With, but during the past three years, when pro- hibition was in force it produced startling results and during that time there was not so many poverty.striction families in Ontario. Whiskey should not be used as a bever- age as it is a racial poison, a national curse, and a blight on the home. The banks will vote for prohibition as they know how it increases the deposits, All mothers, who are fit to be mothers, Will vote "No", on all questions, for the protection of their husbands and families, A few mothers may say, "It does not matter which way I vote. My husband does net drink and my family is all girls But her daughters will soon be g wn u and p ( will in• all possibility marry, Her bus band may drink and abuse and neglect ler and her fantilyi wnich will grow• up weak for lack of proper food, uneducated and of no use in protecting the country, all these things because a fere- mothers may choose to vote tor prohibition to be put out of the country.
