conserved life and pre-
vented epidere:c, A
scheme of pensions for
mothers is to be estab-
lished. The Provincial
Board of Health supplied
ail the typhoid vaccine
used by the Catnadian
troops in the war. This
feature of the work has
brought about a saving of
o'er $100,000 a year to
the peolile of the Pro-
vince.
As war measure the Ontario Temperance Act was so passed, suspending for the duration of the wer the
retail sale of liquor. The promise was given that as soon as the war was over the whole question of the

will of the people would prevail. This l:rorraise is now being fulfilled.

Above is an exact reproduction of the
Referendum ballot, showing the correct way
to Vote in order to sustain the Ontario Tem-
perance Act as it stands.
Everybody should study the four questions and
realize exactly what they mean. Do not be misled by
the insidious demand for "light" beer.
Palle beer of the ballot is 118% stronger than the
®ntario Temperance Act now allows, and over five
;times as strong as the limit allowed for beer defined as
non -intoxicating in Great Britain and the United States.
'Answer Each Question
1. Unless you vote on every question your ballot
is spoiled.
2. You must mark your answer to each clues.;
tion with an "X'„ only. Anything else would
spoil your ballot.
3. Unless a majority vote "No" on question 1
the bars will be restored and the sale of all kinds of intoxicants permitted.'
4. Unless a majority vote "No" on questions 2; 3 and 4 the Ontario Tem
peralace Act will become almost worthless.
