TEMPERANCE FORCES HELD BIG MASS MEETING AT CHRISTIAN CHURCH SUNDAY EVENING
WHEN GREAT ENTHUSIASM WAS SHOW N FOR THE CAUSE
6REENFIELD WITHOUT SALOONS
Is the Object of Workers—Ministers Discuss Many Phases of Saloon Question and Show it Up in
Its True Light People Are All Stirred and the Campaign Will Now
Move Rapidly.
The Temperance Campaign in Greenfield. looking to the banishing of saloons at the local option election on Saturday. May 2d. was given great, impetus at the big mass meeting held at the Christian church on Sunday evening. There was a great crowd filling the auditorium and Sunday school room and they gathered a long time before the hour set for ihe service to begin. There was a tense, deep feeling manifested in e\ery part of the service, and evidences of enthusiastic sympathy with the temperance movement to remove the saloons from the city.
Following the singing of patriotic and stirring hymns, reading of ihe Tenth Psalm by Rev. Smith and a prayer by Rev. Charlton, the four ministers present each gave a talk, dealing with some particular phase of the saloon business and its results.
Rev. Kcrlin. of the M. P. church was the first to speak, and he discussed the general economic side of the subject. He began his talk by saying that the saloon had been outlawed by the government, having been held unconstitutional also that^ it has been outlawed by the postofllce department, by the navy, by Panama, by many of the newspapers, by the churches, and by business. He made the startling announcement li a $2,000,000,000 went into this business annually. In ^various manufacturing and business enterprises in the county, he gave the per cent, of the investment that went to labor, material and general expenses, showing that only a small per cent of Ihe liquor manufacturing money o0es to labor and material. His figures were based on actual averages and were convincing, although startling in many particulars to fhos.e who were not informed on the subject.
Rev. Charles H. Smiilf discussed the subject from a local business standpoint and gave nine specific reasons why we should vote the saloons out of Greenfield. First, the Pennsylvania Railway Company is making many improvements and is looking for a location for its shops in this division, and that saloons are this company's worst enemy that the T. H. I. & E. company, which has 126 employes living in this city, considers the saloon its worst enemy, and has posted notices that they will release from service any employe that drinks or goes into a saloon either on or off duty. He asked that the saloons be voted out to protect these men, and ..•likewise the Eli Lilly Company, which is building a great plant at
Ihe west side of our city. Then he said that by voting the saloons out, we bid for the citizenship of the traveling men who are looking for suburban homes in which to rear and educate their families outside the influence of saloons, and discourage the class of citizenship that follows saloons also that to vote out the saloons is to bid for the patronage for our merchants of the farmers, by protecting their sons in removing this temptation.
In regard to taxation, Rev. Smith said the actual figures show that during the time Greenfield was .without saloons, the average rate of taxation was $2.00 on the $100 and since the saloons have been in operation, with all the revenue deprived from them, the rate has been $2.96 per $100. Then he said, $20,000 goes from tbis city to the brewers through the channel of the saloon .-business, when without the saloons gj it would go through the channels of legitimate business here at home.
He read a letter from a banker at Bluffton, a dry city, which showed a wonderful increase in bank deposits and other business since saloons ceased to exist there. His last argument was a pair of worn, thin, almost soleless child's shoes which he said were the winter shoes of the child of a drunkard here in Greenfield, who, when Greenfield

was without saloons provided for his family. Following the singing of another hymn. Rev. J. T. Charlton spoke of the influence of the' saloon on the home. He pictured this baleful influence not only on the homes of the patrons of saloons, but on the homes of saloonkeepers themselves who he said were deserving of the sympathy of the people. His talk was broad in its sympathies and appealing in its character and presentation, and left a profound impression on the hearers of their great responsibility in the matter.
Rev. M. S. Decker, of the Christian church, summed up all that preceded, in his talk which showed the saloon up in its true light, as a curse to the community and a menace to everyone, being linked with every kind of evil and picturing its terrible consequences on those it grips?.
Judge R. L. Mason, who is one of the leaders in the temperance fight, also gave a short talk in which he said the fight was not against the saloonkeeper, but against their business. He said that 90 per cent, of the divorces, and a big per cent of all the criminal cases that came before him as Judge of Hancock County for six years were due directly or indirectly to the use of liquor.
The meeting was earnest and enthusiastic in every way. and proves that the temperance people are in real earnest in this fight, and will not give up until all is done that can be done.
$100 REWARD
FOR WOMEN'S BRAINS
Every Housekeeper in America has a Chance to Win It.
We are continually seeking ideas to develop new Quaker Valley Household Labor Saver or improve an old one. We have recently—just recently, we confess it—learned to turn to women instead of men for this sort of assistance. And that's the story in a nutshell of how the Clara /,. Klinir Clothe bpin Bag came into being. We paid a woman a handsome sum for this invention. And yet it's such a simple notion!
You'll_wonder why you did
na not think of it yourself. The
reason probably is that you have never been properly encouraged to use your inventive talent. Here's a chance. It is for you—it is for every housewife in America. Now we also manufacture the STANDUP SCRUBBER—that wonderful little machine that takes all the hard work out of keeping the house clean—no more lame backs, no more sore hands, no more stooping and wearing the life out on the hands and knees to clean a floor.
The Standup Scrubber is a man's invention. But wouldn't it be a glorious achievement to the credit of wamankind if YOU should improve it? We believe this is possible, notwithstanding it is today admittedly the only practical scrubbing machine on ths market.
We know you will be delighted with the Standup Scrubber, and yet it may be possible for you to suggest some little thing —any little change or addition that would make !t more perfect. Now for every such suggestion that you send us. and that we adopt, looking to the improvement of the Standup Scrubber or the Clara Kling Clothespin Bag, or fpr any other idea that we accept and develop into an invention to make housework easier, we vU
