Our present Army is the best trained, best disciplined, best behaved in American history. That's why I get my hair up when I hear of some people trying to dry up the areas around Army camps. Why, in a recent report made by the government, it said the Army usually prefers its camps to be located in wet in stead of dry communities. And there’s a sound reason. In a wet comr. unity the Army can control drinking. In dry com munities where bootleggers run wild it’s al most impossible. We know that from our nearly 14 years of experience with national prohibition. “There’s no getting away from it, pro hibition does not prohibit." •/ Btrtrtgt Imiuslrtts. Jett.
