Not so Many years ago, women could do nothing but hope and pray, plead and petition for what they thought was right, but now their mother-love can find expression the polls. Think what it would mean if women were forced, as were their ing and fearing them’ unpaid, 18\ mothers, to stand qyietly by while prima facie evidence of intention Of: cueh a great issue was decided for fraud, ithem. Instead of that. they have the ‘satisfaction to-day of knowing that, Thursday. Oct. 9th. 1924 [ not only can they vote, but that they have sufficlent numbers to carry the _— polls.

Will all the new and unexperienced voters remember that, one wonders, and al- low their own consciences, without mily or other coercion, to dictate the placing of that all-important X. Are the women of Ontatio going to help the liquor traffic to get a strang- le hold on our fair province, as it is. striving to do in Quebec? Are they by listening to the friendly overtures of the brewers, going to allow them to slip in the thin edge of the wedge? Or are they by their votes of October 28rd., going to say in unmistakable tones that they have no sons or daughters to sacrifice to John Barley- corn, and that they intend to preserve the measure of temperance law we have in the O. T. A., as well as to de- mand its ecmecesent. Temperance businpés men of Al- liston have adopted a unique scheme for keeping the Prohibition Cam- paign before the people. A number of them who regularly reserve advertis- space-in the local have banded together in groupe filling the space at their disposal for a certain length of time with s repreduction of the ballot marked as it should be “**marked+for the continuance of the O. T. A. In'this way the matter will be kept very much before the eyes -of the community and there will be fewer spoiled ballots on October 23- rd. - IN VAN OF EDUCATION One day last week the Toronto Globe published the picture of. the new annex to the Beamsville High School which is almost completed at a cost of are 000. this village new bout . of 1200 inhabitants built a high school at a cost of $40,000, which; was thought large enough to). the increased attend- accommo Lt ance kept increasing as the efficiency became known.
