stricted to the priests and the wealthy juice of a creeping plant which was diluted with water, mixed with malt and warm milk and then allowed to ferment.
 The poorer classes drank a strong CT liquor which was called sura. This was manufactured from a tall grass, but contained other gredients-wa- ter, honey, neItsI, butter curds and barley. At a later period it seems to have been made from rice, barley, black pepper, lemon juice, ginger and as a cooling drink for such a hot eli mate that which prevails in India. Numerous other intoxicating drinks were known to India 2oOo years ago, made from dates, honey, sugar, rice and a variety of palm.
 Today the people of India as a rule might be considered very tenn perate. The upper and middle classes drink little if at all and they rank high for sobriety among all peoples of the world. The lower classes indulge more and the drinkers among them are especially fond of arrack made from rice. The English soldiers and of ficials in India formerly drank heav- fly and in consequence proved quick victims of cholera. Today, however, the danger of indulging in hard H- ouors in a hot climate has been so well impressed upon their minds that drunkenness is much less in evidence

LAb0 RLEADER IS COMBINED WITH
 BANK DIRECTOR
Interesting Career of Mem Der of Grand Lodge of
 !. A. M.

Did YOU ever conceive that bank directo and a labor leader could De one and the same person, In these days when labor and capital are pat ting for supremacy?
 But P. c. Dawson, who came here from Washington and removed sam I.avit as the business agent or the Machinists local, is a, stockholder and director in the Commercial Ma tional bank, one of the largest bank ing institutions in the country as well as being secretary of the Grand Lodge of the International Assocla- ton of Machtnists.
 He is a man about 40 years of age, of medium height and athletic oulio' with a. fund of anecdotes and stories of his work among thes tr1kers III different parts of the country during the last few years of industrial un- rest. He has many interesting ac- counts of his experiences in early life as a reporter on a small daily paper in Virginia, and lately of his observa- tions of labor leaders and captains of industry whom he has met in his position as an officer of the Grand lodge and as director in the bank.
 The bigger the man is financially, and he has met most of the big cap tains of industry in the country. the more reasonable he finds them and he finds these men more apt 10 ap- preciate the claims of the working man and the difficulties of the labor leaders who are guiding the men and doing all in their power to settle diff ferences between these two elements in the industrial world
 He finds that most of the difficult ties in this city are caused by the fact that most of the large plants are owned by people who do not live in this city and who have no in- terest in its civic life other than to get what they can out of their fac tories.
 The managers of local plants be- ing but representatives of larger in terests are unable to make decisions without consulting the men higher up and the delays thus caused gives agitators and outsiders to step in and get the workmen to believe that their interests arc not being attended to. He believes that in order to be good labor leader a man must have the confidence of the manufacturers and takes pride tp the fact that he Is on friendly terms with most of the ma anuta cturers with whom he has coma in conSac ct

Through the Rig-Veda runs a con- stant stream of wine. The great God 1ndra, most beloved by morta1s of all the pagan dieties, evidently had an insa tiable thirst, for the Rig-Veda constantly warns believers in Indra to pour out generous sacrifices of in toxicating liquors to him.
 A drink called soma seems to have been Indra's favorite beverage When ever he fought against the forces of evil he prepared himself for combat by getting into a condition that would be described as gloriously drunk if he had been a mortal. And whenever he was most intoxicated then were his feats most wonderful. In one hymn each stanza concludes with the line Tn the intoxication of soma see what Indra has done" He is praised for be- ing so intoxicated that he could hard ly stumble along, and once he is said he had as much liquor within him to have drunk so much soma that as would fill a fishpond.

The prevalence of drinking in India goes back to as remote a period as 1t does in China. During the reign Of King Ajatasatara of AIaghada, who lived in the fifth century B. C. and whose midnight pilgrimage to visit maiden whom he loved is depicted in the painting above, the craving for al cohol was so widespread thatit was already a vice.
 The earliest written account of an- cient India is found on the Rig-Neda, the sacred writings of the Brahmans No one knows just when these folk songs were composed. The Hindus maintain that they were first printed
 about the year 5000 B. C., but Euro pean students think that 400 B. c. would be nearer the truth Some au- thorities think that they may have been composed about 140O B. C.. but that they were not written down until between 600 and 200 B. c. But what ever view may be accepted, it is ap- parent that they were among the old est of known writings.
