In a speech in the United States Senate, Senator Tillman stated that the recently passed prohibition laws of the South could easily be circumvented by the importation of large quantities of liquor by express. The most thorough investigation and study of the problem by men who are capable of knowing it only deepens the conviction that the mere passing of laws will not solve the question so Jong as there is an active demand.

Thousands of the poorer classes in our great cities are denied adequate expression of their social selves. In many cases - dare I say in the vast majority of cases? - mtn and boys are attracted to the saloon because in many cases it is the only place where they find fellowship and an opportunity for social enjoyment. Other causes of the saloon, which may be briefly mentioned, are the unsanitary condition of thousands of town houses, which creates a desire for stimulants; the wretched cooking found in slum homes, which leaves a need to be satisfied; the psychological and physiological weaknesses that can perhaps be remedied by treatment, and what to teach one's inhibition power, etc.

He must learn that, although real success cannot be achieved by banning various factors of the problem, currently seemingly unnoticed. This fact is often overlooked when scholars make a scientific study of the problem. Among some of the less conservative sociologists there is a tendency to exaggerate the defects and weaknesses of prohibition in order to support a given theory.

This would see some students of the question open to just criticism at this point. And finally, in the educational work for which such thinkers make a strong plea, it is essential that care be taken to make such training positive rather than negative. It is quite clear that the solution to the drinking problem rests with no one party.

And then all that primordial power of him, which had lain dormant all his life, arose in him; it was the survival of the titie again. The devils flew before him; his eyes glittered with the sly gleam of newly awakened passions., By God, I must and I will," he hissed through his clenched jaw and hammered with his clenched fist on the table he stopped in his tracks. He took the card read what was given to him, read it twice and still could not understand.

Treasurer Illis, engrossed in his own tangled affairs, did not notice this, for great fear reigned in his heart. Page stared into the fire, not seeing the glint of astonishment in the older man's eyes. An inscrutable light flashed in his eyes when he looked up, as he did now, to look frankly at the emaciated face before him, but the cashier made no reply.

I have no reason to hope for a favorable answer, but I will do all in my power to obtain it, if I have your permission.” Again his daughter's sweet, happy voice rang in his ears, her happy face lifting up before his. He would delay destruction as long as possible and cling to this last hope offered to him.

Illis had turned back to his papers and evidently did not hold his hand gratefully to him. Page, seeing the man ,-was engaged in some problem, turned slowly away, and in a few moments the cold, clear beauty of the starry night held him spellbound.

Perhaps it is something like this that professors feel as they prepare their tests on the "process of extinction." Students and professors, almost alike, have taken themselves to this land of "flesh-shrinkers" and exploited all the physical excesses. energy seeking an outlet From morning to night there is the thump, thump, thump of the ball as it hits the pad.

Basketball, the game with proven popularity, attracts the attention of the girls in their 'gym'. while the boys try out many new games set by PI'of. Some of the more ambitious people enjoy boxing, although it is unlikely that most of them will achieve immortal fame within the boxing ring. Cultivating the knowledge of confidence in oneself and often of the superiority of others is a point to be commended. Boxing is sometimes said to be a rather rough sport, but when it teaches one that a hot temper must be controlled, and that a manly attitude must sometimes be adopted in order to protect one's rights, and that Fatigue or weakness is by no means the quality a man must have; it certainly cannot be classified as a pleasure unworthy of a gentleman.

I've been chewing gum for years and I'm not yet blind." He closes the argument with a tremendous blast on the misused harmonic::i. He goes out and then sticks his head back in, saying something anxiously, " Say, you don't think gum "I make someone blind, don't I?".

And do you remember how old J\1ichael Andrews, (poor man he is long dead), threatened to arrest us, and frightened mother almost into a frenzy. How people laughed when the pig, squealing as the sun warmed the turpentine in the paint, went full tilt across Main St. and old Michael, his face quite broken with heat and anger. But that didn't dampen our spirits, eh, John, for you know the next morning you caught the black heifer on the back, while I caught and tied the black and white one to the fence, and how we got on at last O bring them so close to each other that their tails connect; I hope not.

The wind blows in the chimney, and whistles around the corners, while the ice hits a sharp tattoo on the windowpane. Before me was an open fireplace in which several large logs of maple and hickory crackled and roared.

The fragrant smoke slowly curled up from my lake foam, and I thought of some of the good times I had in '· Old Alfred."
