BY THE CITY
CONTESTS IN WHICH LOSER
PAYS FOR GAME ARE NOT
NOW ALLOWABLE.
order Effective
First Of the Week

All card games in which there is a
stake, that have been going on in the
pool rooms Of the city, or in other
places within the corporate limits Of
Alma, have gone by the boards as a
result of an order issued by Mayor
Charles X. Murphy, which is 10 be rig
idly enforced by the police depart
ment
1t 81 understood that the usual
game in the pool rooms of the city
has simply consisted in the man VINO
lost paying for the game. This, it is
ruled by the city legal department,
makes the game a gamble.
There are various reasons why
Mayor Murphy was actuated to take
the step that he has made. One of
the reasons is the report that some
men, whose families are being taken
care of by the county, are playing
cards and using the few nickels that
they may have to pay for the games
that they lose. Mayor Murphy be-
ieyes that in these cases every bit
of money that these men earn by odd
jobs should go for the benefit of their
families. Another reasaS for he action
is the fact that some men, who are
not now employed, are making a hang
out Of the various poolrooms Of the
city, perhaps passing their time play
ing cards. Mayor Murphy believes
that these men should be spending
more Of their leisure time at home for
tightening Of the home tasks Of their
wives and for the benefit Of their
children.
The order has gone forth through
the police department that such card
playing is to cease, there being no
desire to arrest anyone without due
warming It is said however that the
new order will be rigidly enforced
Not only are those playing cards for
stakes liable to arrest under the laws
against gaming, but also the propri-
ctoy Of any place in which such games
take place.
