A roll call was started at this meeting and several items of busi ness were discussed. The question W. C. T. U. NOTES. MARY A. NOTSON, Reporter. The wets are ready to make capi tal out of anything which they think might create a prejudice against prohibition, but they do not deceive the people who look into the facts. They seem to think, however, that a lie well stuck to is as good as the truth. When the rebellion of con victs in one of the Ohio penitentiar ies occurred a few weeks ago, the wets heralded it as being caused by the over-crowding of the institu tion by men convicted of violating the prohibition laws. The fact is that out of the 4800 convicts in the prison, only 19 were serving sen tences for violating the prohibition laws. According to the official fig ures published in a recent issue of the Congressional Record, only three and one half percent of the convicts in the state penitentiaries are serving sentences for violating the prohibition laws. This does not look like a serious over-crowding from this source. Government control of liquor in Canada is not all that many people think it is. In Vancouver, B. C, in addition to the government stores where whiskey and beer may be purchased under government per mit, there are eighty places where beer Is sold by the glass. These places are licensed as cafes or res taurants with the privilege of serv ing beer. Both men and women frequent these places. All the evils of the old beer saloon are present.
