The Social Phase Of the Saloon, a
special temperance lesson, prepared by
Harry S. Warner.
l. Scripture Reading.-Isa. v, lib,
%, %; xviii, II.
II. Aim of This Lesson.-To show
that the saloon is an unsocial institu-
ton.
Ill. The Lesson.
Patrons Of the "SociaI Glass"
The strongest plea that "a be made
for liquor is that it furnishes social
pleasure. This it does 6rsA ~ means
Of the "social glass to the two or
three or more taking it together, and.
second, by means Of the saloon serving
as Il social center for certain classes OF
people, who either prefer the kind Of
society to be found there or who have
o: who can find no other place open to
them. The PEOPLE who respond in any
important degree to the sociab1lity Tea
lures Of the saloon are:
First.-The more we'll to do or
wealthy classes who distinctly prefer
the sort Of sociability that accompa-
MES or follows alcoholic intoxication.
Second.-The outcast and degenerate
of other classes who seek their asso-
ciates among the eX-criminals, en-
bryonic criminals, ~loafers, professional
l...,, nfo Of tho low 1n1Vn V1.nr.
geries.
Third.-A relatively small but i'm
portant class of business men who use
the saloon as Il place for business APP
pointments.
Fourth.-There yet remain the work
ing classes who regard the saloon as
n place of social intercourse. Here
the real problem is found. First, this
class is the largest in the total and
per capita consumption of liquors; sec
ond. their opportunities for social en-
ioyment, separate from the saloon, are
more limited, and so they are COM
pelled to depend upon it more and
more. In a word, it is the laboring
man, and he alone, who may claim
the saloon as in any sense a real $50
cial CENTER
Reasons For Popularity.
The low cost at which the saloon
furnishes it's numerous attractions Is
one of the strong features in making
II popular. One reason why laborine
men do not form clubs Of their W is
because they cannOt afford the men,

Bullet Proof Soldiers.
Sergeant Fougere of the Eightieth
regiment French infantry is the hero
OF Il thrilling series Of experiences.
During one Of the battles in Belgium
Sergeant Fougere received eight bullet
wounds. He was finally captured by
the Germans. but escaped while being
transferred to the rear.
Despite a broken arm and wounds
in his calf. thigh and ankle, he limped
over the ten miles which lay between
the invaders and his own regiment.
A correspondent at Ostend says that
among the French wounded in recent
fighting was a dragoon with six bull
let and three bayonet wounds in the
upper part Of his body. He was ex-
pected to Gov

describes the fighting at Compiegne as
follows:

They still came on, and when we
really did get the order to get at them
we made no mistake. They cringed ut
the bayonet. but those OH our left tried
to get around us.

a West Kent man who fought in
South Africa said:
"Ihe ROer war was a game of skit-
ties to this. They came at us in great
masses. AS fast as YOU shot one lot
down another came up.
The German generals don't seem to
mind what price their men have to
pay so long as they can break through
II lines" said Il young lancer who
received Il sword cut in the neck,
They were cut down like ripe corn

to mind it at all. 1t was always on

Swings Hammer In Battle.
Anxious to get into the fight against
the Germans, the blacksmith OF the
Sixth Dragon Guardsmen Of the Brit
1sh force accompanied the cavalrymen
on Il charge armed only with Il ham
mer. according to stories told by
guardsmen who were in Paris.
These men had fought from Belgium
through Compiegne and Senlis and
came to the capital for relnounts.
They declared that in one of their
charges the blacksmith grabbed his
huge hammer. mounted n horse and
rode with them, welding his weapon
with deadly effect.

WI Some of the best of these re-
cent side lights ON Europe's
great conflict are given here:
The remarkable adventures of a boy
of twelve years on the battletields be-
yOnd the Marine are told in a letter
from a deputy to Alexandra Millerand,
the French minister of war. When the
troops were passing through Neuilly-
en-Thelle young Andre Guede said to
his mother. I'm going to follow the

ment he was following was soon in the
thick Of the fighting. Sublieutenant
Grivelet took the boy under his charge.
For the whole three days of the bat
tie of Bouillancey the youngster re-
manned by the side Of the officer in the
firing line and would not leave him
even under the tornado Of machine
gun fire that swept the ranks. During
the third day Of the fight %Sublieuten-
ant Grivelet was wounded. Then
came the boys turn to reward the
kindness of his battlefield protector.
Under fire the youngster carried the
officers sword, revolver, maps and
equipment while for three hours they
sought IN ambulance.
A British boy bugler in 4 London
hospital was horribly wounded, but
never ceased to blow his bugle until he
had four bullets in him. One arm was
shot off, but the other held the bugle.

The London Daily Mail in a Paris
dispatch quotes a wounded officer
thus:
"This is not a war Of men: it is a
war of machines. There is an appall-
ing soullessness about it that is say
agely inhuman. Men turn handles and
death flies out in large bundles. That
Is what this battle has been. 1t is all
really one battle on the Marine and the
Aisne.

battle has been who has not seen the
battlefield. Men could never kill one
another by heaps and hecatombs.
