CANAL COMMISSION
WATCHES FOR BACHELORS.
UNITED Press Lensed WIrpI

4
Washington, July THE Panama
Canal Commission has found that the
ordinary variety OF bachelor is an
incubus In the social economy OF the
zone. Suggestions have been made
by the married members of the pay
lists to institute a curfew ordinance
to make them go to bed at a proper
time. Now the commission has dis
covered that the West Indian variety
OF bachelor doesn't know how to feed
himself properly and as a result has
undertaken to do that for him since
June 1.
The West Indian bachelor, accord
Ing to the Record, "is so frugal or
careless that he actually denies HIM
self the food necessary to sustain
himself at the highest point OF ef-
ficiency for his arduous work. To
protect him from this Is the object
of requiring him to get his food at
the mess kitchens.
He Is left no choice In the matter
Like our own boyhood experiences
when mother made us eat horrid
string beans or squash before we
could have cherry pie, he Is obliged
to fileup to the long counter and re-
ceive his rations. He might Just as
well do this as he has to pay for II
anyway, so he usually does. The
cost of the mess Is checked against
his wages.
This is only one OF the lamenta.
BILE defects OF the bachelor that has
been brought to light by canal ex-
perience. According to the protests
OF the domestic variety OF workmen
he behaves very badly on almost al,
occasions. He refuses to go to bed
at a seemly hour. He sits out un-
der the palms and sings "My Bonnie
Lies over the Ocean" when self re-
specting persons have put out tho
lights and gone to bed. Sometimes
he Is bolsterous when taking the
early morning shower and occasions
have been known when he sang riot
ously returning from a late dinner.
There are only two effective courses
to be followed. according to the ex-
perlence OF the ommlssion-treat
the bachelor as belligerent boy, or
marry him of.
