COFFEE VERSUS WHISKY.

The Young Mems Coffee House Re
moved To a More Central Location.
About a year ago young mems coffee
house was established in this city. 1t
was located on Barnard street, corner Of
York street lane. The patronage ex-
tended to it has necessitated it's removal
to a more central location. and to-day it
VIII be reOpened on DravtOn street, be-
tween Congress and BrOughtOn.
The object of the coffee house is not to
make money. but solely to provide place
of resort for those who do not desire to 90
into a drinking saloon. Connected with
the coffee house is a free reading room
and night school for boys and youths
whose employment duriug the day time
debars them from the benefits of a school
education. During the winter months
just past from Is to 90 boys and youths
availed themselves of the adVan-
tages thus afforded them. No
more worthy of the moral and substantial
support Of those who wish TO see the
young men of Savannah become worthy
citizens than this humble enterprise.
Many who would otherwise become re-
spected citizens are led astray by the
bright lights and sOciability Of barrOoms.
There, from one social glass, the young
Hlan passes rSpluly through Tue degrees
to tipping until he is lost in the maelstrom
Of drunkenness.
In England thousands of coffee houses
have been established during the past ten
years, and they have proved to be the
most practical solution of the great ques-
tiOn Of the day, namely. how to save the
young men from the allurements OF the
drinking saloon. Many a young man
would not 20 into such place if there
was any other resort where he could meet
his companions and pass an evening in
nisn that place. 1t is TO be hoped that the
prosperity that bias so far attended this
noble work in behalf Of our young men Will
continue, and that in its rev location the
coffee house will Increase its sphere OF
usefulness
