That House in the Shadow
of the Church.

1t is claimed by many that 1T
is absolutely impossible to wholly
Danish the social evil, but are we
compelled to admit also our in
ability to legally remove a bawdy
house whose inmates have the
effrontery to plant themselves
down in a respectable neighbour
hood, in fact right adjoining the
parsonage of leading church?
Is it fact that the decent peo-
pie of a city must sit supinely by
aud submit to such an outrage!
. Is it the lack of law, or is it the
fault of the officials? Which,
TheP People.
We suppose it is impossible
to wholly Danish the evil as long
as there is double standard for
life. When the demand for a
white life for two" becomes the
social standard the social evil
will die a natural death. When
we rid ourselves of the idea that
the health of manhood depends
upon sensual indulgence there
will be another long stride tow
ards social purity. The most
noted medical authority denies
the statement that in order to be
Vigorous and healthy man
must sacrifice some other mans
laughter upon the altar of his
sensuality.
On the the same ground that
1t is better to have the saloon
stand in the glare of day-let its
twin sister-the bawdy-house be
located in the respectable por-
ton of the city.
We have found no legal limita-
ton for either, but three weeks
ago we called upon the inmates
in that house that sits in the
Shadow of leading church and
found them willing to forsake
the life and one is now earning
an honest living in our midst
while the other poor, contrite
soul sought other fields because
we had no open door for her. All
doors in Fitzgerald, even the
church doors, are open to the
men who were equal partners in
er guilt.

There are two distinctly different

why Americans live abroad-l mean
particularly those who live on the

"Thc first and most important rea-
