where lynching has occurred the au-
thorities have at once found it neces-
sary to order the saloons closed until
peace and order were restored. Where
saloons abound there can be no perma-

of evil passions are full of whisky they
are ready for any offense against order
No doubt most of the southern negroes
who commit heinouS crimes are
drunken negroes, just as the white men
of the north who commit such crimes
are generally drunken. Drunkenness
makes brutes and fiends out of bad
tempered men, no matter what their
color. Keep whisky out of bad men
and you will keep most bad men out
of hideous crimes Sober men in lust
and greed and frenzy may sometimes
break the laws, shed blood and do name
less wrong, but these are the exceptions.

fiend is a drunkard, and the fiends that

scape This gradually is being shut
out from the view of the traveller. On
the leading line of railway between
Jersey City and Trenton there were in
the early part of December, by actual
count, 1,601 signs.
They are of all kinds and Sizes
They are disfgured by all sorts of eff
gies of impossible men and women;
they advertise remedies for all ills that
human flesh is heir to, as well as all
sorts of foods, drinks and various con-
trivances born of human ingenuity.
IF they continue to increase it is
not difficult to imagine the day near at
hand when the traveller will have the
beautiful hills, wales, trees and flow
ers shut completely from view, and
will pass through a continuous and I'M
broken lane of signboards that will
trouble his nights and his days with
suggestions of things that are disa-
greeable.

is difficult, but perhaps the solution
might be through taxation, made SO
high as to be effective.

Frescoes In German Schools

The committee of the Berlin town
council in charge of the primary
schools have taken novel decision
with regard to school decoration. The
proposal is to spend 10000 marks every
year for eight years, with the object
of painting frescoes on the walls of
classrooms and corridors. These pic.
lures will be simple in character, and
will represent for the most part scenes
in German history. Before, however,
the plan can be carried out. expert.

Pate1mal Care for the Boys
BY RICHARD S. TUTHILL,
Judge of the Juvenile Court, Chicago.

If one thing is more responsible than
anything else for the number of boys
brought into the juvenile court it is lack Of
paternal care and companionship between
son and father. Nothing is more important
to the mental, moral and physical growth
and development of the boy than the advice
and companionship of the father. Few get it,
The trouble with great majority Of
the boys brought before me is that they have
never had the care of father. The moth
