fed his charger on wine and barley

cost IL million dollars. His supper
bill for four months was 20 million
dollars.
Philip of Macedon was drunkard.
He always left the banquet table
staggering. Alexander the Great, his
son, inherited his weakness for drink.
1t took him two days and night to
sleep off a royal spree. He died Of
drink at the age of 50. Dionysius-
the younger, tyrant Of Sicily, went on
sprces that lasted three months at a

those principles for which the free
peoples of the earth fought ami died.
During the past year we have had
much to make us grateful in spite of
the confusion in our economic life
resulting from the wan we have
passed, Our harvests have been
plentiful and Of our abundance we
have been able to render succor to
lees favored nations. Our democracy
remains unshalken in a world torn
