MOVIES AND BOOZE

It would be worth while In any city that has saloons go around some evening and count the number of in the barrooms the number in the moving picture houses It would be especially Illuminating the inves- tisator had record of a barroom taken before the movies" came into vogue.
 While the movies havn't been given credit for any intentional "uplif" it's doubtful whether the loon has any more effective enemy.
 Here is a little comparison made in Brooklyn which shows the trend. Last year the number of Brooklyn looms by 5S while the moving picture houses increased by almost precisely the number An ob- remarks that it is quite to a pic ture place, opened saloon filled to the doors in the evening. while the saloon is deserted.
 It isn't hard explain. Men go to the saloons more for companionship and entertainment than for alcohol When man fares forth after supper nowadays, he sell dom goes far without encounterng an attractive movie theatre. For less than the price of single glass of whiskey he get whole evenings entertainment It is not merely toerable way of killing time In the present state of business almost any program is ming ling of excellent picture dramas and interesting educa tional films.
 What wonder that the man in search of inexpensive recreation goes the show-and probably takes his family?

 This money was contributed a time when domestic industry paralyzed when of the usual process es whereby men and women make a living reap prof suspended indefinitely The rich invested their capital war when they needed it carry their toterg eterprses the poor turned their saw ings and took the chance of starving The individual fearessy staked his fortune the of the nation
 It's rather humiliatng Americans think of that just For there is situation in this country that we have not risen to- The crisis to be sure, is not so momentous as Germany's. But neither called upon for so huge sacrifice Germany's national ex- sence at stake here nothing is at stake except our prosperity
 The war has given us grave problems of finance and industry to solve And with tithe of Germanys sac. rihce we could turn our misfortune into advantage All have to do is mobilize money and credit for domestic and foreign business conquests.
 This calls for patriotic faith in American business. It cam for confidence the part of every citizen with money in kis pocket
 This is the tmeto pay debts, to spend to expand, to invest order goods, make contracts branch lines to develop resources to improve equip ment, to open fresh markets the time to fight for a sefsufncient and trumphaR' America.

 The need of the time is investment If capital sts rich and alike will invest their funds and their faith in American industry Germany is investing in its war, we need have no fear of the outcome.

Out Of positive obscurity Fourier

strides. Already he has attained Q
degree OF eminence that overshadows
his older and hitherto more celebrated
compatriot. -Monsier Napoleon Lajoie.
Fourier. like Larry, is a Goliath
with the cudgel. His keen eye has
always been att ,ed to base hits. It
was this ability that moved Comis-
keys scouts to recommend his pur-
chase from the Montreal club In the
International league. Fourier came
up last season. He played regularly
until Chase was traded to the White
Sox. Then. except for an occasional
pinch-hit el:Crt or an understanding
act in the outfield, the young French
man dropped from view.
His chance came when Chase did
the big jump to the Federals several
weeks ago. ;,ournier was stationed at
first 1t was when he began to pepper
the ban with vicious gusto that Jim
my Callahan began to realize the good
that came with Chase's evil.
Today Jacques tops the entire White
Sox team. with an average Of .31z.
He has impr. I'd this mark from week
to week. There is every reason to be-
lfeve that he is not hitting above his
speed. In fact. the experts insist he
will develop more batting power from
time to time.
