I THREE AGAINST ONE
A report submitted at the annual
"convention of Ahe Anti-Saloon League
of America held the past week in St.
Petei'sburg, Fla., revealed these fig
ures:
“Three girls are n6w employiHl
as barmaids or liquor establish
ment hostesses for every one en

. America —1,350,000 engaged in

i Here is an astounding condition
that should stir and aTouse-educatfon-
al as well as other foix^es, for tem

with the public schools and colleges!
Since reptfal of prohibition to the
shame and di.sgrece of cAir people, the
American girl has been “glori:fi^” as
a barmaid, a feminine role never
known before in the United State.s.

his annual report that perhaps there
has been too much intervention by the
Stater-Jor the beat welfare of the
child. He says “the child has been
withdrawn from the home, the ap
prenticeship system, the chUTth, in
the belief that the school is the agen
cy best adapted to assist youth and
to serve youth’s interest.”
Then Dr. Jessup raises the ques
tion, which must havc' occurred to
everyone who has griven thought' to
the subject, whether the school sys
tem may not be in itself7 a form of
exploitation of children. Has the weL
fare of children become subordinated

Sermons Should Be Inspiring
Last summer I went ter a church
in a New England town. The preacher
for the day was a famous man from a
big city._ The church was only about
one-tenth filled. Even* his famous
name was not enough to pull people
away frono the cooU^-sroods and
beaches. -
When the preacher arose to Th-
nounce his text, I thought:' “Now
we’ll catch it. We shall be told that
these empty pews mean that the
world is going to the dogs. We few,
who have come to church, shall be
crucified for the sins of those* who
have strayed away/’
But I was due for a pleasant sur
