Are you in favor of the repeal of ME ONTARIO TEMPERANCE ACT? 2. Are you in favor of the sale of light beer containing not more than two and fifty-one one hundredths per cent. alcohol weight measure through Government agencies and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEMPERANCE ACT to permit such sale? 3. Are you in favor of the sale of light beer containing not more than two and fifty-one one hundredths per cent. alcohol weight measure in standard hotels in local municipalities that by a majority vote favor such sale, and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEMPERANCE ACT to permit such sale? 4. Are you in favor of the sale of spirituous and malt liquors through Government agencies and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEM- PERANCE ACT to permit such sale? By the Ontario Temperance Act, sale and distribution of alcoholic liquors for beverage purposes within the province were prohibited, For practically three years the province has experienced the good effects of this law. Its repeal would be a calamity. Any of the amendments would spoil it. For the Temperance forces to win they must secure four "No" majorities. That is, a majority for "No" on EVERY question. The Temperance forces will be • defeated if there is a majority for "Yes" • on any of the questions. You must mark an X after each of the four ques- tions, or your ballot is counted as spoiled. A century of temperance progress in this province is at stake in the coming Referendum. The Ontario Referendum Committee earnestly and respectfullcy ask you to mark your X in the "No column after each and every question. as indicated in the simple ballot re- produced herewith. :s(r 'r ` rx. k ntario IkefererxdurniC ANDREW S.
