LONDON GIRLS DRINK
Common Sight to See Them Im-
bibe Liquor in Public
Many Under 21 Without Any Escorts
Test Merits of Restaurant
Wine Lists
London — It Is no unusual sight In
London nowadays to see a young girl
with her hair In a plait ordering wine
In restuurnnts or In public houses or
venturing Into a wine house for sherry
or burgundy London blames this con
dltlnn on the war when London wont'
cn deprived of male escorts had to go
on exploring trips alone and discover
the merits of the wine lists
Fy this ft should not he Imagined
that It Is a usual thing with nil tho
young girls of London to drink wine
with their meals or to drink It at all
I low ever It Is only necessary to make
a survey of the restaurants the wine
houses and public houses In the West
End to discover many girls less than
eighteen years of age there taking
stoat or wine McnV of these places
discourage custom from girls who are
unattended by men or older Vomen
and tlds is sending them Into the rei'
taurants where they can obtain wne
with their meals Indeed In London
today girls of eighteen may be seen
drinking liquors which" not very long
ago one seldom saw a woman under
thirty years of age drinking
A social worker discussing this sit-
uation In the Dntly Chronicle declared
thnt It should be made Impossible for
a woman under twenty-one years old
to buy liquor
“Probably the desire of young girls
for wine nrises from hud feeding” she
said “Many business girls arise so
late In the morning that they have not
time for a good breakfast before they
start for work At luncheon time they
feel tired and out of sorts and then
they think that they need a stimulant
What they renlly need Is better food
outdoor exercise nnd plenty of rest
Perhaps I am old-fashioned but I don’t-
like to see girls with their hair down
ordering wine In restaurants”

To Keep American Ships
on the Seas
For the first time since the Civil War we have a real
nu-rch-iut marine It cost us $3000000000 to get tt
The farmer manufacturer laborer— every American Is
Interested in holding our position on the seas
- As u first step in this direction It is necessary to modify
those articles of existing commercial treaties which have
operated to thwart the upbuilding of our merchant marine—
By giving the notice of termination for which the several
treaties provide
This action Is directed In the constructive Shipping Dtll
now before Congress
Which declures It to be the policy of the United Stntes
“to do whatever may be necessary to develop and en-'
courage” a merchant marine
This policy deserves the support of every American
Lacking this support tho present effort to maintain our
merchant marine may suffer tlie fate of many ineffective
attempts of the past
