now hold a price-fxing dictatorship were taken

scrupulous interests are wringing from the people
would exceed the amount OF the Liberty loan.
The sole benefciaries of this extortion are the
gamblers and monopolists themselves. The farmer
does not share in their preposterous gains; In fact
every farmer knows that they are his inveterate
foes Honest merchants and manufacturers are
injured almost as much consumers are by the
food gamblers game and It is significant indeed

THE SUBSTITUTE FOR THE SALOON-By Dr.. Frank Crane

offering soapsuds to 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 to find in some other way that joy OF
life that release from care that excitement which
men now find in partially parakyEing themselves
with alcohol
What that other way or those other ways, will
be depends upon the spontaneous effort of the fu-
ture people themselves. Nobody predicted the sa-
loon; it just grew; nobody predict the coming
substitute for the saloon; it also just grow.
Certain it is that people who have never be-
come addicted to alcohol happy, healthy
and resourceful to say the least, the drinkers.
When they become the overwhelming majority
they will devise their own forms of social enter
tainment, their own outlets for vitality
The substitute for the saloon is not to be pre-
pared 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, whoesomely, the saloon is now I'M

If the world is to progress there must be
mentally broadening ont process everywhere. Such
a process be set in motion only through univer-
sal and earnest training for mental alertness and
vigor.
Men need to be tTained-as most men are not
yet trained-to study and ponder for themselves
every problem that presents itself. They need to
be trained to appreciate that every queston-or
almost every question-has more than one side.
Approaching this, they will gain the spirit OF
liberation. They will become less encrusted with
the knobs and horns of prejudice. They will find it
easier to mingle with all of in efficient
harmony.
To broaden out, and to assist our children to
broaden out, is of truth of the greatest needs
and duties of the present generation. But the
broadening only be effectively secured when
gained through the sane means OF real thinking.
Ask yourself these questions:
Am l prejudiced open-minded? Am big
oted or tolerant? Are my beliefs based on logical
thought carefully developed by my own mind, or
on the opinions formulated for by other people?
Become a real thinker If you are not one now.
Grow in wisdom and you will grow in breadth of
outlook. Thus growing the world will become to
you better place, and you will be helping to make
it better place for other people.
