Hail, All Hail, Cornell!

THE PRESS

(Ed. Note: The following is a verbatim record from a full page advertisement in the Cornell Sun. A picture of a unshaven, filthy, albeit jovial bum smiling over a glass of beer headed the page. A 180-bold "Prohibition" smacked the eye from the center of the advt.)

Ten years of temperance.

Our great and noble experiment is a success

Drinkeries have disappeared

Drunkenes is unknown

Advertisement

Alcoholism has been annihilated

The beer barons are bankrupt.

The dream of the WCTC is realized

The chocolate soda has become our national drink.

Our jails are deserted.

Politics has been purified

We lead the world in morality

Law and order prevail in all our land.

No more does beer defile Cayuga's blue when the Spring zephyrs bless our land.

No more does the aroma of malt beverage permeate our Halls of Learning.
