DID YOU EVER STOP
TO THINK
By Ed son R. Waite
When all citizens have pride
in their home city, they will
have a better city.
When they i~e filled with
ambition to ha\e a better, big-
ger and hosier city, they will
cooperate together in a way
that will make their ambitions
become realities.
Spasmodic work on be hall
-of citizens brings no results;
constant effort i the price that
must be paid for steady com-
munity growth.
The first thin z necessary to-
ward making a city better is
cooperation.
All citizens sienld be inter-
ested in attract lag new busi-
ness concerns a id new capital
to their city. T he benefits de-
rived does mac’i toward bring-
ing continued prosperity.
The man who has made a
study of his home city is a
better booster than the man,
who has not. '
The man who knows all
about his city can be counted
on as a community worker.
Boosting for the home city
pays bigger, quicker and
steadier dividends than any-
thing you can do.
It doesn't take eloquence to
interest people in a live city;
they know one when they see
it. The idea is to get them to
come and see it.
Courtesy to visitors means
much to a city.
A citizen who thinks it isn’t
worth while to be courteous to
visitors isn’t worth while to his
home city.
"And what kind of officer
does your uniform signify;”
asked the inquisitive old lady.
“I am a naval surgeon,
lady.” -
“Goodnesa me, how you doc-
tors do specialize in these
modern times.”—P ittsi’s
Monthly.
We saw a sandwich man on
stilts the other day. Lonesome
soul, he was holding a can-

ladder washing a second story

When snows fly many New
Yorkers pay nickels to walk
underground. By using sub-
way stations, building a
hotel lobbies it is poasible to
walk underground as much
eight blocks without retracing
a step. Lexington and 41st to
Madison and 46th is typical.

That unusual person, son
times called a genius, Sister
Aimee Semple McPherson was
preaching to the lost souls of
Broadway in one of the big
"four-a-day-and-movie”houses.
There was a special detail of
policemen in front of the thea-
tre to handle the crowds that
were expected on the first
night. But on the second
night—Saturday, at that—
they were no longer needed,
the crowd being not so great
aa the management expected.
Sister Aimee’s contract was for
$5000 a week.

Lesson for October 29th.
Romans 1$; 12 to 15 ffi. Golden Text: Borneo; 13:1«.
Paul’s letter to the Roman; was written about the year 54 j
A. D., from Corinth, where the apostle was sojourning during
the course of his third missionary tour. A mss —*
of his theology, it has been aptly called “The
Gospel According to Paul.”
The lesson is taken from the latter part of
the epistle, which is full of practical counsel.
While Paul mentions temperance only inci-
dentally, yet his whole teaching her* consti-
tutes a powerful proclamation of this virtue.
With the repeal of the 18th Amendment a
foregone conclusion, lie nation faces a very-
difficult problem. Everyone admits that the
liquor traffic must be controlled. Bat how?
There are plenty of brewers whose itch fat
profits will inspire them to move heaven and
earth to bring back the saloon. Can they be frustrated? 1
of the younger generation have never seen a saloon, and know
nothing of the hideous saloon system allied with vice and cor-
rupt machine politics. We can depend ’ipon die* for only
lukewarm support.
Can the separate states be trusted to curb effectively the
sale of hard liquor? Are we to have 4* different systems of
I alcohol control to parallel our 48 varieties of marriage and
divorce legislation? It seems clear that the Federal Govern-
ment, while allowing large liberty to the individual Mates,
must formulate a national plan to forestall the impending
chaos of contradictory wet and dry codes.
But what shall this plan be? Perhaps we can adopt a .sys-
tem similar to that prevailing in Norway, where the manufac-
ture and sale of all liquor, hard or semi-soft, is under strict
government regulation, and the profits are held down to !
thing tike 5 per cent At any rate The Church will have to |
abandon its conventional approach to the problem, and rethink
its position upon this critical question. The 19th Amendment
was a mistaken and costly experiment. But what next?

Hotel men of New York are
loginning to wonder how they
are going to store fine wines in
the event of prohibition repeal.
The newer hotels have modem
basements that rarely have
that deep earth atmosphere
we associate with the word
“cellar.”
