FRENCH CAFE IS
ONE SUBSTITUTE

Quite the same-Like Eng

Correspondent Says.
CLUBS NOT POPULAR

The enactment of prohibition in
the United States has made the task
of finding social equivalent for the
saloon one of the problems of the
day. In this connection the following
article by Robert Dell, for years
Paris correspondent of the Manches-
ter Guardian, published in recent
issue, of that newspaper, is or in
tehest. Mr. Dell explains the
peculiarly French, or rather CONT
mental, institution of the cafe, which
must not by any means be confused
with what Americans commonly I'M
derstand by that name. AS the article
points out, the French or continental
cafe has nothing in common with the
English public house or American
saloon, but is the development of the
old English coffee house, and largely
speaking, the continental substitute
for the present English club. MT.
Dell writes:
"Clubs are not popular in France
and probably never will be. Nearly
all Partisan clubs, even the most re-
spectacle, derive great part OF their
income from the organization of
gambling and are chiefly used by the
members who gamble-the other
members frequent them very little.
l have friends in Paris who belong
to two or three clubs and rarely enter
any of them. So generally is 1T ac-
cepted that clubs exist principally
for gambling that there is "a tax OF
40 percent on club subscriptions,
which makes it impossible for any
club to exist without making money
from the gaming tables, unless, in
deed, it gets around the law. That
can be done, and is done in case
that know, by forming an associa-
ton to which all members Of the
club are obliged to belong and max
! ing the association subscription sew
eral times larger than that of the
club In the case in point the sub
scription to the association is 100
francs a year and that to the club
only ten francs, SO that the tax pay.
able on each member is only eight
francs year, whereas If the club
had a subscription of 120 francs 1t
would be forty-eight frances

Cafes Take Clubs place.

1.-THE chief reason, NO doubt, why
Frenchmen do not care for clubs is
that the cafe in French life takes the
place OF the club for the great ma
jority of men. The French bourgeois
who follow the strict bourgeois ira
dition are more exclusive than we
are in their home life, in the sense
that they open their doors less
readily to persons outside their own
family, which. includes cousins to the
seventh degree. This is not because
they are inhospitable, but because
the home in France is a sacred pre-
cinct which must be guarded against
intruders. But, on the other hand,
Frenchmen find clubs too exclusive
and prefer the more democratic in
stitution of the cafe.
ct is a mistake to suppose that
Frenchmen as rule spend great
deal of time in cafes. know many
Frenchmen who never enter them,
and most men in France use a cafe
no more, perhaps rather less than an
Englishrnan uses his club. Naturally,
bachelors go to cafes more than mar.
ried men, and there is small minor.
ity of men who almost hive in cafes,
but the habit is not generally ap-
proved.

Not COSMOPOLITAN.

THE typical French cafe is not the
cosmopolitan Institution of the grande
boulevards in Paris, with its orches-
ira of relocated Tziganes,' as they
used to be called before the war. It
Is the cafe du quarter, the cafe of
the Latin quarter. The ordinary
cafe du quarter is frequented by the
local bourgeois or local workmen--
each has it's own special class Of
customers. The French workman will
not, as a rule, go to cafe freQuented

THE BETTER INSTINCTS.

Easy money" is an instrument
which blunts the better instincts of

to the spirit of truth and the pro-

most rigid ethical rules, to seek
wealth with the energies at his COM
mand. No man is permitted, by any
ethical rule, to forget principles in
his pursuit of wealth.

are endowed with integrity of char

The cooperation of all the resi-
dents of the Town is asked in this
matter, so that the Town may be put
in a clean. attractive and sanitary

your own health, as we'll as for the
difference in the impression that n

The attention of the merchants and
others owning property on Main

criticism. This condition should be
rcmedied. If the authorities cannot

be removed by the Town, and the
owners will be required to pay for
