forbidden even to transport the!
stuff. The bigots who obtained a \
federal crackdown in this area
of personal conduct did not dare
forbid the common man to take
a drink at hootch if he could
find one. That would have
provoked quicker rebelkin
against the prohibition exper-
iment than the lusty uprising
which finally did reject the idea
that big brother knows best.
The 18th amendment to the
U. S. Constitution and the lynch
law Congress enacted to enforce
it became effective Jan. 16.
1920. The discredited 18th
Amendment was rejected by J
retiea! effective Dec. 5, 1933. i
The enforcers had been
pitiless, like scalping Sioux on
a long ago War path. State
laws of awesome consequences
were enacted to supplement
the federal Volstead Act. In
some states a citizen could
earn and get a lifetime sentence
merely for transporting a pint
of hootch in his automobile and :
getting caught at it.
The 18th Amendment was as j
firmly implanted in the U.8. j
Constitution as any other ptrovi- '
sion of that document. Bid |

Thi* story Is about newspaper
advertising and how it serves
TWO ways. It begins in the
home where the lady-in-a-raood-
to-buv starts her shopping by
studying the ads in this news-

buys are.
The story continues in the adver-
tiser s store where the lady
comes to buy what she saw
advertised.

more successfully. Yes there '
