Mexico'a Army of Bell Rinaers,

1t takes great army of men to keep the church bells going in Mexico. It is estimatcl that in Mexico City alone there are more than 2,0OO bell ringers regularly employed. On days of re- ligious celebrations the number is aug, mented, as the ringing of the bells must be kept up almost constantly through the day anI night on such Oc- casiOns. The most striking feature of Mexican life to the casual visitor to Mexico is the noise of church bells Every little hamlet and many of the ranches in the country have one or more Catholic churches, and each ed flee is equipped with one or more bell towers.

A Free Ireland Must,
Most Certainly, BE a Part
II Of the Democratic Scheme

1t has been decided by the British gov
eminent to free all the prisoners who
were taken in the Irish rebellion Of the
spring of 1916 for which the unhappy
Sir Roger Easement, It's leader, was
hanged as a traitor.
That the United States entrance in
the war and the plea sent TO the British
parliament that the Irish question be
given prompt attention and settled #
possible has had considerable to do with
this clemency on the part of the govern
ment, there can be little doubt.
America wishes to rub off Of the slate
of her Allies anything which may be IN
compatible with their stand for human
ity, democracy and the rights Of small
nations to have a voice in the matter OF
who shall govern them.
In spite of the expressed desire Of the
Obstetrics for protection from the British
government, for reasons connected main
" with industrial problems, the people
of Ireland have shown in unmistakable
and divers ways, that they want above
all things a chance to manage their own
affairs.
OF the Celtic race poetical warm
hearted, emotional, it is a natural con-
sequence that domination by the cold,
ADMINISTRATIVE English should be a
failure on the Emerald Isle
The treatment Of Ireland. the taking
away of her lands, the exploitation Of
her people, all for material gain is a
blot on England which should be eradi-
Gated as soon as possible if Great Britain
and America are to stand arm and arm.
their flags entwined for this ideal Of
democracy which they have heralded to
all the world.
Therefore it is we'll that the Irish pris-
oners are freed before the Irish convon-
ton which is about to take plece-and IL
must be a lasting regret to all Americans
that this "clemency" on the part of the
British government came too late TO save
the neck Of that dauntless Irish patriot,
Sir Roger Easement.

When Germany Has Lost
the War, Germany Will Have
Only Germany TO Blame

Germany, a great country. so capable,
so efficient. composed largely Of profess
sors and philosophers, has been guilty
of the grossest stupidity imaginable iu
the acts which she has perpetrated upon
the world
In the first place. She was not able To-
foresee that her violation Of Belgian ncu-
trality would inevitably bring England
into the war and reckoned without the
opposition of England in her plans.
Ia the second place. she was incapable
OF understanding that the brutal treat
ment of the Belgiaus would turn the
sympathy of the whole world against
sher. She gained little, materially. and
lost the respect of nearly AN nations.
Next she could not refrain from sink
ing vessels with women and children

More Morality and More
Funds Lie In Publicity
Income Tax Is DOdged

Under President Wilson's policy of re-
fusing publicity, there was a decrease of
q 600 in the number of income taxpay-
eIs In 1916 from the previous year.
While the large part Of the decrease
was undoubtedly due to outright and ras-
cally lodging. a considerable part was
probably due to the big payers having
discovered legitimate ways in which TO
avoid giving up their money TO the gov
eminent.
Pretty much all Jus are would-be tax
dodgers, in degree. When A sees his
neighbor B undertaking his property for
assessment or escaping all taxation and
getting away with it. it is only human
nature in A to call his consciences at
tention to the gross injustice of his pay
ing BIS share simply because he (A) is
honest. At least, the general inclination
is to value ones property low for assess
mant. and let the assessor find it out.

Substitute For the Saloon
BY Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright 1915. by Frank Crane)

From the way prohibition is gradual
ly covering this country it seems as
though 1t will only be a matter of time
until the saloon will have to go out Of
business. a few spots may remain
moist but the most Of the Union will
be dry ranging from rather to bone
dry.
What will take the place of the sa-
loon?
To answer this question let us ask
another: What is saloon?
1t is place for Sociabilty with the
stimulus of Alcohol.
Nothing since the world began has
been discovered that promotes good
cheer, social feeling, and~d sense of per-
sonal comfort so quickly and so cheaply
as Alcohol Scientists say it does this
at the expense of our health, and moral
lists claim it does il at the expense Of
our character; but the point is, it does
it. No appeal of good fellowship and
care-freeness can yet equal "the stein on
the table and a good song ringing clear"
If we are 20 take away the stein what
will we put on the table in its stead?
Tea? Coffee? Drug store drinks?
Water?
First, it may as well be admitted that
TO a man with developed craving for al
cohol nothing can take its place. All
temperance drinks leave him cold His
organism cries out for his accustomed
stimulus, and 10 offer him strawberry
soda is like offering soapSuds TO a baby
that wants milk
There is. therefore. nothing to be done
with the alcohol tipplers While they
live they will complain
The only hope is with the children.
They must be trained 10 find in some
other way that Joy Of life, that release
from care. that excitement which men
now find in partially paralyzing them
selves with alcohol
What that other way or those other
ways. viii be depends upon the spon-
taneous effort Of the future people them
selves. Nobody predicted the saloon; it
just grew nobody can predict the COM
ing substitute for the saloon, il must
also just grow
Certain it is that people who have
never become addicted 10 alcohol are as
happy healthy, and resourceful, to say
the least, as the drinkers When they
become the overwhelming majority they
will devise their own forms of social en-
tertainment, their own outlets for vital
ity
The substitute for the saloon is not to
be prepared by the wisdom Of reformers
and presented ready-made to the world;
it Will grow in it's own way in its own
good time, and when it comes it will be,
wholesomey, as the saloon is now un-
wholesomely. "of the people. 10y the peo-
pie, and for the people
