YOUR GLASS OF WINE.

As lately as 1920 the moderate wine-drinker

the United States was laughing at the idea of ^

dry America." But Prohibition has come, ana

his glass of good wine has gone.

YOUR glass of wine will go too if you do not

defend it.

HELP yourself. The citizen, not the trade, can

win this fight.

Watch your elections, and rouse up your fellow-

electors. Few candidates risk standing openly as

Prohibitionists ; but, cloaked as Local Optionists,

as Nationalists, as State-Purchasers or merely as

" Temperance Reformers," they are already busy

sapping your liberties.

Keep teetotal tyrants out of Parliament and out

of your Borough and County Councils. If they

are already in, work to turn them out at the next

elections. Faddists are not the men to be entrusted

with the direction of public affairs and with the

spending of taxpayers' and ratepayers' money.

England,-say the American intruders, is to be

made dry by the women's vote. Find out what

they are telling your womenfolk, and explain to

them the other side.

Prohibition means more taxes, more drug-

taking, more discontent.
