versity of Chicago told an audience in
that city that If the average boy of the
slums, when eighteen years of age. de-
cides to pay back his parents what it
has cost them to bring him up. he will
find himself in debt $4,000. He went
on to calculate that sons of wealthy
parents cost much more-in some in
stances as high as 100000. If clev-
or business man could arrange to buy
some Of those Chicago boys at what
they are really worth and sell them
on the basis Of Professor Hoben's cal

Washington. - Comment upon the
substitution of unfermented grape
juice for the wine usually served on
such occasions at dinner given to
diplomats Monday night by Secretary
and Mrs Bryan in honor of Ambassa-
dor Bryce caused the Secretary to
issue statement explaining the Incl.
dent. In it, Mr. Bryan made public
for the first time the fact that the
question of how the "teetotaler" GUS
toms of his home would be received in
Official society was discussed with
President Wilson before he accepted
the portfolio of state.
The statement follows:
1--WE did not intend to magnify, by
mentioning it, the Importance of the
non-use of wine at the dinner given to
Ambassador Bryce Monday night but
as the papers have made some mac
curate references to the matter, the
facts might as well be known.
This was the first dinner which we
have given to members of the diplo.
matte corps, and therefore the first
time we came into conflict with the
social custom of serving wine at din
ner. The seven other ambassadors
then in the city and their ladies were
invited to meet Ambassador and Mrs.
Bryce, and as all the gentlemen guests
present were from foreign countries !
thought it proper to explain to them
the reason for our failure to conform
to what seems to have been customary
in this matter. Believing that the
issue should be met frankly in the
beginning told them when we sat
down to the table that Mrs. Bryan and
! had been teetotalers from our youth,
as were our parents before us, and
had never served liquor at our table;
that when the President was kind
enough to tender me the portfolio of
state asked him whether our failure
to serve wine would be any embar-
rassment to the administration, and
that he generously left the matter to
our discretion. suggested that,
though, it was unfair to assume that
those coming to US from abroad would
judge us harshly or be unwilling to
tolerate the maintenance of a tradi-
tional custom, and expressed the hope
that our friendship would be made so
apparent to them and our hospitality
SO cordial that they would overlook
this weakness in us, if they regarded
it as weakness. My remarks were
applauded by the company and we
never spent more enjoyable evening.
THAT is all there is to the matter,
and we can consider the incident
closed and the custom established so
far as we are concerned"
