•CHICAGO. — Excessive drinking,
especially among persons between
20 and 30 years old. iias Increased
greatly in the last ‘three years, ac-
Cvrjlinf to Charles R. Jones, execu-
tive vice presidcht of the American
Business Men's Research founda-
tion. 9
"A survey reveals that in the
younger age group two out of live
men and one out of 12 women drink
in such amounts as to constitute in
'many cases sub-standard risks for
life insurance companies," Jones
said.
Jones said the foundation Was
conducting an analysis of the ex-
periences of Insurance companies
as concerns drinking habits.
"Drinking habits, we have found,
are responsible for one of the most
difficult situations ever to arise in
the life insurance business," he
said.
"Many directors and underwriters
are advising us that they are forced
either to decline outright or to ac-
cept only at special high rates, more
applicants for life insurance for ex-
c< - ve drinking habits than for any
o..:ir cause," Jones said.
Gre company reported that for
each 1,000 applications rejected 24
indulged exfesijvely in liquor.
"With high blood pressure and se-
rious heart ailments, both frequent-
ly the results of drinking, they are
responsible for more rejections than
tor all other causes combined,"
Jones said.

There is an old baying that the
rich have money and the poor have
children. As for the rich having
money, that, of course, is obvious.
And as for the poor haring child-
ren,—well, read the story yourself.
Jim .Scott, a poverty-sticken
back-woodsman, had become the
father of his twelfth child. The
cradle in which the child lay had
served its purpose for eleven pre-
ceding children and its rockers
were so far gone, there' was no
more rock in them.
“Guest we gotter git a new
cradle, Jim.!’ said the wife with
a plaintive sigh. ’“This one’s erbout
all used up." -
Jim looked over the delapidated
crib that was ready to fall apart:
“l guess you’re rigHt, !Sal,” he
dtawled, ‘I guess we gotter git a
new one. Here’s two dollars. Next
time you go ter town, git one at
the store—but this time git one
that will last."
