 What Becomes of the Grapes? Editor Herald,
 Dear Sir
 In company with several other "Terrible Vets I was discussing the article on prohibition by the Rev. t'redccn which appeared on the front page of the Herald last night and although none of us were greatly impressed. we certainly did get q great laugh out of it when we read that the Rev, gentle man had visited hundreds of homes in this city and had seen no cvi- dence of intoxicating drink l sup pose il never occurred to him that the wine or other intoXiCantS would be kept under cover when the dominee made his visit. Perhaps if he looked in the cellar or behind the pantry door he would have found plenty Of evidence.

Parents who have been arous- ed 10 keen ipterest over such ques- tions as, do all chorus girls lead shady lives, or is a boy justified iu breaking with his best girl if she lets other fellows kiss her." simply are not professors. scientists or psycho- lCgi,ts.

DOCTORI\G THE BUDGETS


 The time of the year has arrived when the city budgets are being subjected 10 doc,orlng in the inter est O. economy. and the mayor him. self. realizing that all city depatt- mcnts are ambitious and entcrpris- ing. has sent them q letter suggest iug that nothing be included in the budgets except those things which are absolutely necessary. The mayor thus gave good exhibition Of be- ing prud nt in Inc face Of mount ing expenditures and he let every one know that he did not favor too many Improvements at one time. or in one year. especially in a cam paign year.
 Human nature being what ii Is, it is doubtful whether city depart nen;s viii be greatly dctcrrcd from letting citizens know just what they hope 10 do if they gst sufficient money for their purposes. Every de 1 partmcnt head. We have ho doubt, could make a most excellent record if he had enough money 10 work with.
