Vote and Vote, "Yasa" on Ap�g-fl IS
P'rHE OntaricP Temperance Act -as a war-
time measure was an unqualified success.
On -Octob er 25, 1919, the people of Ontario
voted by an overwhelming majority in favor of
the permanent continuance of the Ontario Tem-
perance Act, prohibiting the sale of intoxicating
beverages.
The "Bootleggrer" blust Go
On December, 31, 1920, came the repeal of the
Federal Order-in-Council—which was also a war -time
rneasure—Prohibiting importation, manufacture and
export of intoxicating, beveragea.
Thus it became possible for individuals in )rohlbi�
tion. provinces to import liquors fo*r consumption in
the home-, thus the "bootlegger" is able to* offer the
same for SAle contrary to law, and thus the ekpressed
will of the people in this province is being defeated.
Importation Musd Cease
Zvorything that applied in the last vote against the
gate of intoxicating beverages within this province
applies equally to the Use of them, and their I'mPorta-
tioxx for beverage purposes should also be prohibited.
Hence arose necessity for further legislation and
another Referendum.

of all these range from I to 10 years, and
Of course good Foster homes are desired
for them. Have You not the Place where
one of these could find the care and lovir��
sympathy which every chila is entitled to
tot the years in which it is preparing to
take its place in the activities of life. The
almost invariable testimony of those who
have taken part in this work by adopting
a child is that they have been amply re-
paid for the care and anxiety incident to
their bringing up, At present we -would
like to hear of a home where a brother
and sister of 11 and 8 years respectively
could be placed, then two brothers of five
and seven who should go togethcr, a sister
and brother of 6 and 8 years. Then
there are two girls of nind years, and a
baby girl of 3 Monthr. In fact, almost
ariY preference can be suited, if you will
let us know what You are willing to do.
