|DR|NK|NG BY WOMEN
INCREASING, HE SAYS
Albert E. Shoemaker Declares,
However, That Men Are
Growing More Temperate.

That the amount Of Intoxicating liquors
consumed by women in the District OF
Columbia is materially increasing every
year, but that men are drinking less than
heretofore. was the declaration Of Albert
E. Shoe maker, attorney for the Anti
Saloon League of the District, yesterday
afternoon at the closing session OF the
thirty-eighth annual convention of the
Womans Christian Temperance Union OF
the District of Columbia
Mr.. Shoemaker charged that because
of the alleged laxity of the laws regu-
latng the sale of liquor in the District
it is almost Impossible to secure con-
viction for selling to minors.
drinking anon men in the Ma
tional Capital is on the decrease Mr..
Shoemaker went on to say, but among
the women it is on the increase, and
there Is more liquor consumed by women
in the District today than ever before.
Most of this increase is among young
girls who should not be sold whisky or
beer under any conditions, but there is
so much competition in the capital that
the saloonkeepers are willing to take a
chance in order to secure the trade.

NOT EVEN CRACKERS
OR ROMAN CANDLES
Paw Paw Resident Deplores Condi-
tons as They Exist in Paw Paw
on National Holiday.

Paw Paw people who remained at
home certainly enjoyed safe fourth of
July, whatever one may think of its
sanity. Under the existing regime,
unless the day Ee celebrate chances to
fall on the first day of the week, there
are two Sundays 10 Paw Paw. Indeed,
it is more quiet on Independence Day
than it is on the Sabbath, for then
people can go to church, those who
desire to attend Divine service, and the
others can go a-fishing, while on the
Nations great holiday there is nothing
available but the fishing
People IN other places seem to have a
different idea Of what constitutes a safe
and sane celebration from that enter
tanned by majority OF our wise Paw
Paw Solons. For instance, the cities OF
Detroit and Kalamazoo pat themselves
on the back and pride themselves on the
success Of their safe and sane" ceebra-
tons, and yet boast of their magnificent
display of fireworks, while in Paw Paw,
but probably not in another town In
Michigan, even frecrackers, pinwheels,
Roman candles and red fire were all
tabooed, their use being prohibited by
ordinance, and although the ordinance
provides that the common council, IL
it's discretion, may grant permission for
such display, respectful petition for
such privileges was promptly turned
down by majority of members Of the
council
Well the fireworks were not wasted,
notwithstanding, for the ladies aud
gentlemen who had the matter 10 charge,
desiring to please and amuse the boys
and girls, as well as themselves to enjoy
the odor of a little villainous saltpeter,
without which 20 Fourth Of July Is
complete, simply stepped across the
corporation line, out of the jurisdiction
of those who, in their wisdom, had
refused their reasonable request, and
there they actually had the audacity to

They do say, though, that certain
reckless individuals, not having the
fear of the law before their eyes, actual
ly got together in the north part OF the
village, and in utter disregard OF che
fiat of the august common council,
actually enjoyed a pyrotechnic display
within the sacred limits OF the town.
But that is another story.
When informed that the request pre-
ferred to the village fathers had been
turned down. one gentleman remarked
that he was glad that he was not boy
again. While not entirely coinciding
with this sentiment, all agreed that
they were glad the authorities in their
youthful days had not thought to
suppress all demonstrations OF patriotism
on the nations natal holiday.
The ladies and gentlemen who had
presented their petition to the village
authorities, assembled under the spread
ing naples in front of the residence OF
e. ID. Shrine where they enjoyed
picnic dinner and supper, as they have
been accustomed to do in past years.
One Of the kids ia defiance OF the
law actually had the hardihood to fire
toy cannon as much as four inches in
length, and it made quite respectable
noise too.
About the first thing that was done,
and that quite early in the morning,
was to fling a large national flag to the
breeze, with the remark that "Old
Glory" should float for one more lnde-
pendence Day, at least, for it might be
that the powers that be, in their absorb
ing desire for. things safe and sane"
would forbid its future display.
