What IS FREE LUNCH?
DEBATED AT ALL BARS
Excise Commissioner Unoficially Dis
cusses Legal" Food.

What is free lunch? This Is the great
successor to the old moot point, What
is whiskey?"
Retail liquor dealers in all parts of the
city were concerned yesterday With the
question of whether the Excise Board
placed on absolute bar on everything
that could be construed as food in its
edict against free lunch. member of
the Excise Board, discussing the matter
last night, gave this unofficial opinion,
which can be set down as carrying the
force Of an official order:
THE Herald was correct In its state
ment that pretzel and the cracker may
be served In licensed establishments. The
board is not disposed to be drastic in its
regulations This rule against the serving
OF free lunch was enacted for the sole
purpose Of remedying abuses In certain
saloons where the free dispensation of
food was used solely as an thticement
or inducement for patrons to drink. In
a number of places patrons entering with
10 or ID cents and the hot frankfurters
and other foodstuffs which accompanied
the drink. were used as an inducement
to purchase more liquor.
1T was to stop this condition that the
rule against free lunch was enacted. 1t
does not mean pretzels, crackers cheese,
olives and similar light appetizers of
food morsels, cannot be served. The
board sees no wrong in this custom:
The order against treating by sa-
looms, was also gut into effect for a defi-
mite purpose. In some places 1t has
come to our attention that dealers have
encouraged patrons to spend more money
by offering a drink on the house. when
these same patrons were about to leave.
We are against that practice. The anti
treating law is in effect in other cities
and has worked well.
This is a modified adoption of the
same regulation"

From January nth, TO the goth,
inclusive, there will be held at Bowl
ing Green, a meeting Of the County
Road Engineers. This is the first
time such meeting has been held
in Western Kentucky and advan-
tage is taken Of the fact that the
Rock Asphalt Mines are located
nearby and that all delegates will
be given free trip. They will also
have an opportunity TO inspect the
excellent roads in Warren and al
jacent counties and especially the
old State pike which was built
some seventy-flve years ago.
The railroad companies through
out the State have kindly agreed TO
give reduced rates to the meeting,

To the 10Th. and good until the 2ist,
and the Attorney General Of Ken
lucky has ruled that Fiscal Court
has legal right TO appropriate
money TO pay the entire expenses
Of the court in attending the meet
ing.
The program has been arranged
so that only practical problems will
be discussed. One-half day being
given over entirely 10 the County
Judges Of the State, and owing TO
the fact that the meeting is being
held at time Of the year when no
road work is being done, there is
no reason why at least two or three
thousand people should not be in
attendance.
II Is a known fact that conven-
tions OF this kind are necessary in
order that work may be done more
efficiently. Bankers, railroad men,

cuss their particular line OF bust

"One question you would ask
would be this, What can we really
know about God? You cannot know
much about the being Of God, nor
the power Of God, nor the wisdom
Of God, but the important thing is
that you should know the DISPOSE
ton Of God. Make mark at John
i:8. There we find almost the short
est text in the Bible, and the one
perhaps first taught TO little child.
God is love- What we mean by
love needs to be studied. Gods love
is shown in the character of Jesus.
Set a mark at John i4:8-iO. And it
is shown in the parable Of the Prod
igal Son. That parable shows a
great many other things, but it
shows the heart Of God. Be sure TO
turn down a leaf at Luke Is: ii-2l.
Another good question you would
ask is, What does God require OF
me? Now there is a sure, clear an
swer TO that question. Turn down
the leaf at Matthew %, and read
from the 30th to the 40th verse. A
skilled man, a lawyer, asked Jesus
the question, What is the great
commandment in the lawT And the
great commandment looms up self

ton, How do people begin this life
Of lover The experience of begin
ming the Christian life is as sweet
and wonderful and varied as the
experience Of what we call falling
in love- Nearly all the novels and
poems Of the world have been writ
ten about these two subjects-the
coming together Of the man and the
woman heart, and the coming to-
gether Of the human heart and the
divine heart.
Sometimes il comes like a stroke
or a miracle. Saul, Of Tarsus, re-
sisted the call Of duty and God. Il
was hard for him TO kick against
the pricks,' but he kept kicking, and
at noon-time he was on the road to
Damascus. Read the ninth chapter
of Acts, and see one kind Of con-
version.
But more commonly IL just comes
by calling and seeking. Read the
Nineteenth chapter Of Luke. Invent

the walls fell down when the rams
horns were blown, but because it
was there that the bright little maa
Zacheus was converted. Zacheus
was a confessedly wicked man, q
publican, but he was ready for q
change. He heard that Jesus was
coming that way. He forgot all his
dignity and pride, but was deter
mined TO see Jesus, and he actually
climbed tree so that he could see
him. That was seeking, and Jesus
came and looked up in that tree and
called him by name and said,
