FRIDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1925 LIQUOR TOLL Io HELD PROBABLE (Continued From Page One) the Hquors consumed, but are due solely to the fact that the people are drinking harder than ever in the communities where they are drink- ing at all. They claim the hospitel records will show tho great majority of alcoholic deaths due to the quan- tity consumed rather than the qual- ity. People drink themselves to death in the days of generally “good” Haquors; and, according to the wets, they are resuming the cus- tom in even greater numbers with each passing year of inability to en- force the Volstead act. Some of the prohibition authori- tles believe that appeals to the drink- ing classes, if not the masses, on the ground of the poison contained in the available liquor today, are the last resort in an effort to uphold the prohibition law. In other words the afithorities are trying at last to ob- tain an observance of the law as the one real means of enforcement. During the first years of the Vol- stead act it naturally was the alm of each appointed agent and each appointed director of prohibition en- forcement, to make as many arrests ag possible and thus point with pride to the record established, But the offenders against prohibition have increased far more rapidly than have the arvests and the prohibition au- thorities have found themselves all but engulfed in the rising tide of illicit alcohol. With this rising de of alcohol has come the rising tide of alcoholic deaths. Always at Christmas time, the happiest season of the year, the lst leaps upward in a sort of devil's dance of delight at the frailties of the human race. This {s particular. ly true in the very wet centers, such as New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco and other large cities. In New York it is sald there have been in the first eleven months of this year 511 deaths as againet a total of only 87 in the entire year of 1918. The year 1918, by the way, was the low water mark of alcoholic consumption in this country. The Volstead act had not then gone into effect, but the manpower of the country was either, mobilized in the army or in essential industries and there was a spirit of “win the war’ abroad in the land. The great out- burst of renewed drinking came in 1919 and subsequent years, The prohibition enforcement offl- cers put the 511 New York deaths down to “poison liquor.” The wets put them down as just plain ‘alcohol- ism.” = The holiday rush for Nquor has been on for several weeks and the authorities are convinced the total deaths this year will be staggering te the people of the country as a whole, The “drys” will use these figures as an argument for still greater efforts at enforcement, while the “wets” will use them as a de mand for -repeal or modification of the Volstead act, taking the greund ‘that as the people cannot be prevent- ed from drinking some kind of al- cohol, it is far better to give them good Uquors of a minimum of sico- holic content, SANTA GIVEN WELCOME HERE (Continued From Page One) the morning. ‘The services began with high mass at 5:30 o'clock, fol- lowed by low masses at 6:30, 7:30, 8 and 9 o'clock, and high mass at 10:30, The Grace English Lutheran chureh also held Christmas day sere yicés, with the Rey.

Mme, Flammarion is the daughter of lovely Maria Latint, who was the original of Henri Reynault’s paint- ing of “Salome” jn the Metropolitan Museum, New York, and a descend- ant of Theophraste Renaudot who fathered, journalism under Louis XIII. She was born under the shad- ow of the Meuden Obseryatory, in France, and went to Paris to live when she was a small child. By an odd coincidence tho little Gabrielle Renaudot attended a girls’ school in the same street in which Camille Flammarion, even then a noted astronomer, was established. At nine she was sent to the Lycee Fenelon and decided while there, that science would be her vocation, With her parents she attended M, ¥Flammarion’s receptions and when she was left orphaned at 18, she sought his advice and became his secretary, and at the time the world war broke out she was his partner- collaborator, During the war Mile. Renaudot ‘was a nurse in the Cherbourg naval hospital. She was severely wounded and left the service after receiving the silver medal of honor. The man charged with the meetings and pub- lication of the monthly selentific re- view of the Soclete Astronomigue was at the front, so Mile. Renaudot took his post.
