S.I•roor.n NOT nta.-A temperance worker feels greatly humiliated to think that the temperance people of Blnevale will allow each actions as have been taken by some of our young men of this vil- lage in the breaking or the. Local Option By-law that was carried in this place, without taking proceed- ings against them. Monday of this week a few young then journeyed to Wiugham and procured such liquor as intoxicated thein, they returned to our Local Option village in this condi- tion which is both degrading 'and disgraceful not only to themselves but also to the .temperance people who have worked for its abolishment. Stich violators of the law ought, I think, to be punished and not only would it be a lesson to these yow gg men but also to others Who would, try the same thing, If it occurs a- gain 1 for one will be ready to take action against the oifeudees. 'I sound this note as a warning. Leadb u ry NOTES,— Mrs. Will.
