That means that the "Wet vs. Dry" Issue will be one of the biggest, if not the dominant issue of the Presidential campaign of 1932. The Wickersham report itself is definite in its main conclusions and recommendations. It is opposed to repeal of the 18th Amendment It is opposed to the restoration in any manner of legalized saloons. It is opposed to the Federal or State gov ernments going into the liquor bus iness. It is opposed to any change in the law to permit the manufac ture and sale of light wines and beer. It believes that the coopera tion of the states and the support of public opinion is necessary for complete enforcement of the Pro hibition law, but believes that there has been an improvement in en forcement since the forces for that purpose were reorganized, although enforcement and obedience to the law are still inadequate, as are the agencies of enforcement The commission recommends that more money should be appropriated for enforcement, and the organiza tion and personnel improved and backed up by more efficient laws for the prosecution of violations and the conduct of investigations. In addition, the commission recom mends that "IF the 18th amend ment is revised" it should give Con gress the sole power to regulate the liquor traffic, and not leave any thing to the states. With this last conclusion Presi dent Hoover, in his message trans mitting the report to Congress, dis agrees. He thinks that the burden of enforcement should not rest en tirely upon the Fedtral Govern ment He has previously expressed himself as feeling that the states have not done their full duty. But with the main conclusions of the commission he agrees. All of the members of the com mission agree on the general state ments of fact in regard to Prohibi tion enforcement, but some of them disagree with the conclusions, al though all signed the report. In separate memoranda different com missioners expressed themselves in favor of total repeal of the 18th amendment, of the Government go ing into the liquor business or au thorizing the states to do so, of changing the Volstead law without repealing the Constitutional pro vision for Prohibition, and of oth er palliative measures. Already the forces on both sides of the question are lining up for a great political fight next year. At present the Democratic party lead ership, in the North, at least, is wet and getting wetter, while the Re publican leadership is mainly dry and getting dryer. But Prohibition cuts across party lines, and one re sult of the present situation is like ly to be some strange new poltiical line-ups. TIME FOB ALL TO HELP. Autocaster Service THE Red Cross is making good progress in its campaign to raise ten million dollars throughout the nation, to render aid to the hun dreds of thousands of people in the lower Ohio and Mississippi Valleys who have been made destitute by the combination of drought and hard times. This appeal for funds Is one that nobody with as much as a dime to spart can ignore. These are our own people who are actually suffer ing and in want More than half a million of them are already being fed and cared for by the Red Cross, which never waits until it has the money but goes ahead and pledges its credit and that of its officials to get aid to the needy without delay. "He gives twice who gives quickly" is one of the Red Cross mottoes. It is to be hoped that there will not be another cold wave in the stricken regions. Observers who have reported on conditions there Bay that a heavy drop in tempera ture would certainly mean great loss of life. It may well be that the es timate of ten million dollars will not be enough, although the Red Cross has many times proved Its ability to make a dollar go farther in helping the helpless than most people can make five dollars go. Nobody need be afraid that his contribution will be wasted if given to the Red Cross, whose workers are trained but un salaried, giving themselves as well as their money. And do not let the feeling that there will be money enough deter you from giving. Miss Lucy Case, In charge of state 4-H health club work, Is In the county this week assisting Miss Ed ith M.

The only child of his parents, hence a very anxious mother, who co-operated with me at every step. I encountered a moder ate fever, a loaded digestive tract blonging to a "very hearty eater," a vigorous and rapid pulse and breathing, a slight sore throat; lungs not involved. Any old mo ther might have given a dose of castor oil, and wrapped the little pa tient up warm in bed, and he might have been all right tomorrow. But, this is a highly technical age. Wise young parents do not fool with old wives' fables; they call a physi cian. The little fellow was very anxious that Santa Claus should visit him; being a personal friend of that Christmas idol of childhood, I read ily promised to intercede for the visit of the fat little saint which brought me a very willing subject for examination.

Again the entire chapter should be read. Remember that we are studying the entire life of Christ on earth and not just the few incidents therefrom. More miracles are per formed. The faith of the Centurion was commended when that man be sought Jesus to heal His servant from the distance by merely giving the word. Raising a dead body is no greater problem than any other kind of healing, as is evidenced It Doesn't Work Pinky WHAT) up ANP FORTy I ( I'M COUNTING YOU ) 7 TOLD ME- TO COUNT I V & THE MATTER.

A simple evacuant for the loaded bowel, with a nice, good tasted germicide for the throat, and the trick was turned. I learned in cidentally that, there was a base ment to the cottage that was not exactly sanitary, and damp at times; that the little boy. played there on chilly days when it was pleasanter indoors; a few words of practical advice to the young mother were absorbed as a dry sponge takes up water. The same of the admonit tion )n regard to indiscriminate eat ing. This boy had eaten "nearly a pint of ice-cream and has prompt ly thrown it up" a few hours be fore I was called to go see him! The proud daddy a bridge mech anichad "just loved to see that kid eat." Never was a fee paid more will ingly or promptly; never have I left a more grateful family. And, Santa came on time, leaving a generous supply of things that little boys like; I know, for I talked with the old man. when the widow of Nain receives her son again. Then note the inci dent when John replies by calling attention to the works and preach ing which are common report. The Pharisee who Invited Jesus to his home evidently did it that he might observe this Nazarene more closely. He did not say "Come" for Jesus' sake. There may have been food enough but the common cour tesy of washing the soil from the feet was omitted, though that was the work of a slave or lowly servant. A woman who had made her living as a common prostitute rejoices at the opportunity of expressing her joy in the salvation which had come to her through His teachings. When the Pharisee-host condemns both Jesus and the woman; a deep lesson is given by a parable-story about, two debtors. The forgiven sinner was therein exalted above the rude Pharisee.
