Another week end has ,e0ine
and gone and nevor much change
in Brussels. The main entertain-
ment far most. people is to get
drunk which of course is quite
leg-al and most proper.
A. century ago men worked until
six o'clock. on Saturday and then
about. eight went clown to the
hotel. It was the only time they
could get away from their women,
which in itself, made it a pleasant
evening.
Same tt,, now, some could
handle their liquor and some
would fall by the wayside into the
gutter. Temperance people would
say, look at that. drunken hum,
we sure need Local Option. Some
still get laid out but now its legal.
We have house partieS. Instead of
laying in the gutter you are put
to bed on a 52S spread, The host-
ess loosens your collar, removes
your shoeS and say, peer Tom, or
Wok, or Ilarry, just took a drop
too many. Tht.t,t drop was a quart.
Then once a week we have a wet
dance. This is a great outlet: for
both the temperance peOple and
the drinkers. - And don't tell, me
they go to Catice, A. couple of

People to put on a Virginia Reel.
They went where they could
drink.
There is to be a huge cele-
bration in. 'Wales next month to
proclaim Prince Charles. Cost is
to be $,525000,, Five _hundred and
twenty-five thousands dollars. If
they really ,want producers they
should get. Ned Rutledge and
Prank Thompson. These gents
put on a rotten show but
Ihey could get rid of that money
quicker than you or T. could horn
it: They should take Al Logan
and Len Lamont to serve the beer.
