When Ciderville Went Dry Filming Locations

Ciderville was wet, very much so, both inside and out, as was evidenced by the hilarious condition of some of its leading citizens, but the suffragettes struck town one day, and they proceeded to put the reverse on the well-known masculine thirst. Even the sheriff himself was hornswoggled, and they prevailed upon him to post a notice in front of the village post office to the effect that there would be an anti-thirst meeting at the town hall that night. Henceforth all was changed, and after that meeting the suffragettes ruled the town and all living things therein. Even the police department was governed by them. One day a force of lady "cops" chancing to see a number of men well "lit" leaving an ice cream and soda parlor, they investigated and learned that all was not as it should be, for the soda which was sold was spelled, b-o-o-z-e. A raid was made and Weary Willie, one of the culprits, was arrested and placed in the cell with the contraband which was captured by the women police in their raid. Through the window of his cell he made a ready sale of the "nose-paint" to the thirsty ones who gathered, and made a "clean up." Hauled before the judge, he received a lengthy temperance lecture which was capped by the ultimatum, "$10 or ten days." Digging down into his jeans, he paid the fine from the proceeds of the sales and departed a free man. But he lingered not in dry Ciderville.
