A campaign of propaganda is being
waged to restore the traffic in
liquor. Pressure toward that end
is certain to be exerted on Con
gress. Will we again shoulder al
cohol's old grievous load of taxation,
affliction and crime?
We will not! says the National
Grange. Throughout its long and
noteworthy career it' has fought on
the side of temperance, combating
the' evil and waste wrought by
liquor. It has stood consistently for
clean manhood and womanhood,
for high ideals and for strict obser
vance of the law.
The Grange is still aligned just as
firmly as ever on the side of rights It
believes that the riddance of liquor
helped greatly to sustain this coun
try in the difficult period of after
war adjustment. Congress must
know that the farmers oppose
the restoration of liquor.
You who believe in a clean America
can help insure it in nd better way
than by joining the Grange. It is a
mighty power for progress; as such
it merits your support.
The Country Gentleman, the
great national weekly of profitable
farming, also stands unswervingly
for a clean and orderly national life.
It seeks not only to inform, but to
inspire through its news of farm suc
cess. You will find in its 52 big
weekly issues many helpful articles
and much wholesome entertainment
all for $1.00. We urge the double
advantage of being a member of the
Grange and a reader of The Coun
try Gentleman.
