Ohio. The speaker said that West Vir-
gania had profited financially by vot-
ing dry. A mar in the audience dis
puted this statement. He said that
he was a salesman, that he visited
every county seat in West Virginia,
and that his business had fallen off
considerably since the state went dry.
Another man spoke up and said that
he was a salesman and made West
Virginia regularly and that his bust
ness had increased since the state be.
came dry. He asked the fellow who
reported a falling off what his line
was and the latter reluctantly admit,
ted that he sold undertakers' supplies
at which the crowd yelled. The man
who declared that prohibition had
helped his business explained he sold
furniture.

FOE OF THE

OF all the foes of young manhood
on the American college campus, al
cohol Is the most subtle and destruc-
tive. It is peculiarly fitting that the
American college student of today,
wiser and better informed than his
predecessors, should give battle to his
ancient and merciless adversary. II
gravestones were placed on our col
lege grounds to those slain In the flush
OF young manhood by intoxicating
drink, the acres Of verdant lawn
around even our best institutions
would become vast cemeteries CHASTITY
with thick-strewn headstones. With a
devilish instinct for maximum d%estruc-
tiveness, this demon of the campus
seems to pick out for degradation the
gayest, the loveliest, the most talent
ed, and to reinforce his assault by en-
listing the social and generous in
stincts which constitute the very
charm of youth. Opening always the
gate to passion and appetite. he is the
aggressive ally of everything which
degrades college life, the promoter of
tragedies innumerable on every cam
pus. the tireless enemy of virtue, pur-
ity, diligence and intellectual develop
ment.-Henry Louis Smith, President
Washington and Lee University.
