It is more so because more liquor may be imported and consum- ed legally in Washington than else- where, because of the special privi- leges accorded foreign embassies. Washington, moreover, is the social capital of the United States and from time immemorial the imbibing of al- coholic drinks has had its place in social intercourse. We do not sug- gest that the practice is likely to be more general in places where poli- ticians congregate, but enough has been said to show that if the order should go forth from the White House that the city was to become dry, con- sternation would descend upon the YOU CAW EARM $6 to $10 'cP PER DAY Learn and Earn • part time on Motor Mech- anics.

Yet there evaa fiartoune!falgeleing idea embodied in the teatitaliniale to this hew. Those .forteme-enakYag ert'ene teelAties were realleed by 4se seaMs Candler, uncrowned ldeg, of Atlanta, Ga., anol inventor of CeseaeCole, who died a few dayeasego in an hospital which he had endowed end where lee had lived for Iriore than a yea; Forty years ago Wir. Candler became seized with the conviction that 'if he could invent a drink which was palatable, wholesome and lion -intoxicating. and which could be drunk at all times of the year, he would make a fortune. He was right, and the fortune he left, one of the largest in the Southern States, is proof of how right he was. There are various stories told as to the invention of Coco -Cola. One is to the effect that it was in use for years, even generations, by non-alco- holic Southerners before Mr. Candler got the idea of patenting it. An- other is that Mr. Candler with his own acid -stained hands compounded the first brew, and still another has him buying the recipe from some- body else. We are not her g to give any testimonials to this drink, nor to say whether we could tell it blind- folded from the old-fashioned sarsa- parilla or root beer, but from its tre- mendous sales one might reasonably infer that it has proved satIsfactery. The first year it was put On the mar- ket about 500 gallons were sold. Last year it might have been found. had research been made, that there were individual families which had consum- ed as much in the twelve -Month. Suf- ficient is it to say that Mr. Candler built up what we presume to be the most profitable business in a single soft drink in American history. It was done mainly by advertising in which he early employed a corps of experts. If the drink is as good as the advertising it must make nectar jealous. Mr. Candler's career was entirely orthodox arid in accord with all the principles admired by the late Samuel Smiles. It is true that he came of a good old English family, which had been settled in the United States for several generations, on his mother's side, descending from a Revolution- ary war hero. But the Civil war de- prived the Candler family of any wealth it may have accumulated foe Sherman's memorable march just skirted the Candler fafin and when the conqueror had passed by •it was found that most of the slaves and other moveable property of the estate had done likewise. Still the family saved enough money to give the boys an education. In the case of one of them it was sufficient to enable him to become Bishop Warren A. Candler, one of the most influential Episcopal Methodist dignitaries in the. United States. Asa did not fare quite so well in the matter of education, but he studied•pharmacy, and at the age cif twenty-one left the old plantation for Atlanta. He had in his pocket just $2.50 which may.be a trifle more than the traditional sum with which future captains of finance begin their careers. He had not been in Atlanta very long when the death of his father made it necessary for him to return to the farm. In a few years he had things running so smoothly that he was able to go back to Atlan- ta and resume work as a druggist. He became a partner in a firm and in four years sole proprietor. He had been in charge of ethe flourishing business for six years when the idea • dv.Otetz RIcakted veui,d comidiRtr place. Some such order is feared from President Hoover. It is said that if he discovers that any member of bis new cabinet is in the habit of taking a drink he will be asked to refrain, as a matter of public policy and to set a good example. The presi- dent himself. who used to enjoy a cocktail very much indeed, is said not to have had one since he became a cabinet minister. He also abolished pre-Volstead liquor from his home and so an evening with Hoover at his home would be just about as thrilling as an evening with him at the Quaker tabernacle where he worships. Calvin Coolidge, too, used to like an occasional drink, despite the fact that Rollin Kirby, the cartoonist, is said to have copied his features in the figure he uses to represent the anti- mloon league, and general bigotry. But Mr. Coolidge is said not to have taken a drink after becom- ing president, because he felt that he should set an example. Personally, he was not enthusiastic about prohibi- tion and did not interfere with the very general but unofficial drinking that went on in Washington. Under him, according to Arthur Sears Hen- ning, a Washington correspondent of the Chicago Tribune, the drinking members of the cabinet refrained from serving liquor at formal dinners, but at informal dinners the cocktails and the highballs were served without embarrassment. It became the rule in other drawing rooms that if a dry cabinet minister was present the liquor would be served in a room to which he was not invited. Of course he always know what was going on, but the amenities were preserved and there was no scandal.

Once having became possessed og the recipe and having satisfied TelMielf that he had wh-at the publit'could be made to =mar he staked eveay dollar he had on Coca- Cola and abandoned the general drug business, seems possible that one reason ter his success was the fact that thews has always been a strong prolaibitian sentiment in the Southern States, meet on the part of people who would be unhappy, without their bourbon. •That is owing, to the negro problem antt the belief that negroes, inflamed with gin, were a menace to the women of the land. This senti- ment, pies the merits of the, drink and the allege of the advertising made the emcees of the new venture assur- ed, and seen Mr. Candler was rolling in money. His evey of acquiring it roey not have been particularly distinguished, but his generosity with it was in keeping with the finest traditions of the south,. -He became the friend of every good cause, and hospitals, churches and colleges have had rea• son to bless his name. He found oe- iginal methods of doing good. for in 1907, when there was a money panic and owners of Atlanta real estate were selling out, Mr. Candler stepped in an& invested $1,100,000 in city property. not at panic rates but at the prices that prevailed earlier. Much of this he re -sold to _the former own- ers at what he had paid for it. When the drop in cotton prices threatened the South with ruin, Mr. Candler pro- duced his .bank roll and offered to lend any amount of money on cotton, at the rate of six cents a pound. He is also credited with having saved a rival bank from liquidation by buying its shares,, and returning them to the former owners when conditions im- proved. No one can contemplate these facts without coming to the conclusion that Coca-Cola has been a great blessing to the South.

Everybody knew that Mr. Harding drank and liked his liquor and that he had drunk for many years. He had been so long in Washington as sena- tor that his personal tastes were known to everybody of any import- ance. Nobody would venture to ask him to lunch or dinner without forti- fying himself with the necessary cocktails and Scotch. With his cron- ies he continued to indulge himself just as he had done when he was a senator. Friends abroad kept him provided with his favorite Scotch, so he did not find it, necessary to have dealings with a bootlegger. Once an indiscreet friend sought to send him two consignments of liquor through the British ambassador but that dig- nitary refused to be a party to the conspiracy and reported the matter to the state department. The out - .rage was not known at the time and this, we presume, is the reason that the minister was not recalled. When Fred Upham, a friend of Heading's, was going abroad in 1923, the part- ing request made to him was that he should bring home a barrel of Scotch. for Mr. Harding which had been re- served for him in London. Finally at the insistence of Wayne Wheeler of the anti -saloon league, President Harding climbed tremulously on the water -wagon. He fell off and climbed back a couple of times, and then his sudden death put an end to the un- equal struggle. 5.50 5.55 6.04 Atelotern 6.11 Myth 6.25 6.40 6.52 10.25 Walton PleVateght Thronte West.

Mr. Henning tells us. not alto- gether to our surprise. that to ata of- ficial diner -Out who likes his nip at dinner presents a dreary prospect. One of this stripe, a cabinet minis- ter, had a butler who solved the problem for him. This gifted servi- tor knew every household in the of- ficial set, and could tell whether his master would have a drink or elicit af- ter he arrived. If he was about to face the ordeal of a dry entertain- ment, the butler would appear before the diner -out had finished dressing, and would provide him with the nec- essary stimulent. This faithful fel- low even knew those households which were supposed to be wet but whose cocktails were wholly lacking in authority, and when his master was about to visit one of them, he saw to it that he was armed just as though he were attending a strictly dry func- tion. For years the best liquor served in Washington was to be had at the home of Andrew Mellon, the secretary of the treasury. rhose duty it was to enforce the prohibition laws. When We went to the city he took with him numerous tetickloads of the usque- baugh, made in his own distillery, the Overholt, and naturally invitations to a Mellon dinner were in great de- mand. Prohibition has had the ef- fect of piitteng many minor legations on the map socially- in Washington and at large social affairs given by diplemets, it is customary for a,regn- lar bar to be set up at which half a dozen or so of cutotie and forbidden drinks are served.

Their history lives for them, besides just a study of the outstanding characters they gain in- sight into the lies of others of that time they are able to pieture the country, living conditions, the amuse- ments, etp., in such a way that the kings. statesmen and soldiers acquire a background and with it added in- terest.

I hardly de- serve my good fortune, for it is lit- tle moremeetan 'a year since I first read it myself. Moved by the praise of good French critics, I obtained the book and wap fascinated by its qual- ity. "If I am a novice in the apprecia- tion of this book, it may be added that even in France the growth of Alain -Fournier's reputation has been slow.

Ac- claimed from the first by a few fine judges, it was only by a slow pro- cess of penetration, when the war was well over, that a Grand Meaul- nes began to take the high place which at length it has won.
