Show IF Suppositiously Propounded Jack Edwards was called "the Jap" because of his raven-blachair, email, dark eyes and swarthy complexion. Coming from lunch, one summer day, he stepped gingerly across the dusty cobblestones, dodged a ponderous electric truck, was warned off the street car track by the clanging of a gong, made a detour to pass a stationary automobev-lebile, pulled open a brass-bounglass door and mounted the flight of steps that led to the main floor of the bank. On reaching his department Ed wards sauntered to his desk. "Hello, bunch," he called, In lifeless tones to several young men who were grouped around an adding machine. Tommy IJetts. the diminutive head of the department, glanced up with an expression on his face that was a caricature of wrath and called across the intervening deaksr stools and baskets. "Why don't you go to bed nights, Kdwards? Your mistakes are balling up the work of the entire department," exploded Tommy. "Come around here and take a squint at line 13. It don't balance by a mile." Edwards glanced across the sheet and made a mental calculation. "I guess I was aelecp at the switch, follows," he said, and smiled sweetly. "Iave the statement with me," he urged. "I'll fix it. I say, one minute. Tommy," ho called, as the department hend drifted off with the others. "I'd Do you like to ask you a question. tl Ink If a fellow getting only $60 a month got married that be and the girl could get along all right?" "Of course, it depends a good deal You on the fellow and the girl. suits couldn't wear $35 tailor-madand patent leather shoes as you do now. If the girl's sensible, there's no reason why you shouldn't get along all right. A number of the fellows 1 know were married on less than $60, and they're getting along fine." "You don't say so," Jack murmured Jubilantly. Miss Mabel Marsh ran a comptometer and was an important cog In the machine that ground out the work of the bank. The young clerks vowed her end of the room a delightful place to work and the little bell boys who at on the polished benc hes downstairs and jumped to answer the call of the officers openly adored ber. "Say, Pelle. what kind of a question do you suppose the Jap asked roe a few minutes ago?" Inquired Tommy, as he fingered a long, white paper tape crowded with figures. "How should I know? Why don't you tell roe? "Me wanted to know If I thought a young man could support a wife on C0 a month." "What'd you say to him?" . "That I thought It depended a great deal on the young couple themselves, f explained he'd have to economize." "The delightful thing about it Is." declared Miss Marsh, flushing until tier pretty face was as red at a peony, "that the girl the Jap picks out will te sure to care enough for htm to do her share In In making It easy sledding." After leaving Miss Marsh running her machln at a great pace, which slackened the moment be was out of sight.

While it Is undoubtedly a suggestion of the right kind for the relief of individual cases of drunkenness It would appear to the casual observer that too much of our effort and time and money are spent In the attempt to repair the damage which we ourselves permit by licensing the public drinking saloon. There is one thing better than to lift a man out of the gutter that is to remove the gutter. We are dealing too largely with effects and not with causes. Inebriety Is the source of many of the most Important problems of government. Recent figures show that 28.9 per rent of the male cases of Insanity In New York are due to excessive use of alcohol.. In Pennsylvania 41 per cent of the Imbeciles owe their condition to intemperance, 30 to 40 per cent of epileptic cases have their Tbe report of origin In alcoholism. the Board of Prison Commissioners of Massachusetts for 1908 states that 86,365, or 60 per cent of the total arrests were made for public Intoxication. Drunkenness as a cause of poverty Is continually noticed In everyday life. The use of the short sentence Is absolutely Ineffective. A man leaves the county Jail or workhouse without money and in most cases without friends. He can secure shelter In a Hundreds of churns of all kinds saloon and probably by performing have been Invented In past years, but menial service for the bartender get a drink.

The advantage of such colonies are that a Urge number of rounders would be taken from the streets, courts, prisons, workhouses, and hospitals. Many rases that are a menace to society would he removed. Families that are burdened by caring for fathers and brothers who are habitually drunk would be relieved.
