BEER GARDENS AND CLUBS.
BEHIND BATTLELINES
Germans Evidently Had Prepared
for Long Stay in st. Mihiel
Salient.
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON
THE LORRAINE FRONT, Tuesday,
September II (by the Associated
Press).-The Germans apparently
never expected to be ousted from the
st. Mihiel salient. They had done
much work in building shelters and
beer gardens and about the Souleveie
farm the country had been made to
look like a prosperous German neigh
borhood, with resorts where towns
people might spend their holidays.
Little clubhouses were built and
equipped not wholly in keeping with
front line operations. The dugouts
ana shelters Of the officers were fitted
almost luxuriously. some Of the larger
ones being fitted with bath tubs and
running. water and lighted by cleo
tricity. Outside of many Of them
were little summer houses, where the
OCCUPANTS were accustomed to sit ard
drink beer.
When the Americans advanced they
CAPTURED a German mess sergeant,
who had been instructed to pack up
aud leave, but who had underestimate
ed TIE speed OF the American prog
ress. He was carrying quantity Ct
beer ana cheese, and when no saw
the Americans approaching he did not
run, but busted himself like bar
tender and received them standing
bek.nd a table on which the beer and
cheese were ready for consumption.

DRUNKENNESS ON DECREASE
However, Spending More
Money on Drinking During War.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
LONDON. August 30.-Before the war
the people Of this country spent $780,
600. 900 year for drink. Now they spend
$1,000. 000. 600. Nevertheless. there Is not
half the drunkenness In these war times
that there was in 1913. Heavy taxation
to provide war funds accounts for the
Dublic's increased drink bill, not further
indulgence. In fact, excessive drinking
has declined more than 80 per cent, and
there has been an enormous gain in ma
uonal efficiency.
All this has come about, Lord DAber-
non, chairman Of the liquor control
board, told the Associated Press, as q
result Of the war regulations introduced
by the government.
There is great ground for hope" he
said, that the progress made toward
temperance under war conditions won't
be lost: that it will be continued by
postwar action along lines similar to
the restrictions now in force"
