We are moved to fer this suggestion after reading where our old friend , Matthews hooks up his plea for more street lights th the issue of Americanism? ‘Art and Booze Pennell, the illustrator, says that without alco- ¢ drink there will be no art or poetry in America. Three great American poets were drinkers and to excess. One of them was Edgar Allen Poe. But all abstained for very long periods and did all their during a total state of sobriety. One of Poe’s friends once said of him: “One drink with was like hitting a fine Swiss watch with a hatchet.” other of this group said himself that a drink of whisky any man with an imagination feel too good to do any Walt Whitman, and whom the wets may claim not to @ poet, was a drinker to a moderate degree in early but he was a physical giant and said that liquor had} or no effect upon him, and that he cared nothing A great American novelist and playwright quit drinking at his 50th year, wrote his drink confessions for a national fazine and has since done what all critics agree to be his_best work. _ Edwin Booth, the actor, was a periodical drinker in his early career, but like the three poets first mentioned, was ble of any mental concentration after one drink of Three great American architects were drinkers. One was an epicurean drinker who brought on a phy iddle of a very brilliant career. ' The two others were periodical drinkers. One did his and most important work previous to his 32d year and before he became a drinker. The third was so unreliable in the matter of his engage- ments that he could not practice his art independently, but 3 ned in the employ of other architects. While he per- ‘Sonally designed many important structures in this coun- try, including one of the two most successful buildings of Chicago’s world’s fair, yet he never received full public redit for them. We are inclined to think that belief in drink as an aid artistic production is a delusion. Its effect on the quality of art is highly questionable id it has certainly added nothing to the quantity of art. sical The Star upon several recent occasions has remarked that nothing gets very far~in this country/unless public opinion is behind it, and PUBLIC opinion is not political opinion, class opinion, or religious opinion.

FRANK CRANE (Copyright, 1919, by Frank Crane) December Ist to December 10th is the time set apart for the national campaign against tuberculosis. Its common nafne is consumption. It is the most deadly plague in the world. Other plagues come and go, but tuberculosis has been steadily busy for over 4,000 years, It kills 150,000 people every in the United States: n hour, 480 a day. One million persons in this country have active cases of it. Tuberculosis is not inherited, It is got only by infection, that is, by breathing or swallowing the germ, Tuberculosis is curable. It is not dangerous if taken in time and treated sensibly. Its cure consists in fresh air, cleanliness, rest, good food, and scrupulous care in destroying germ-laden sputum. Tuberculosis, while the greatest single cause of death in this country, is preventable. It can be prevented by more intelligence, more nurses, more hospitals and open air schools and the like. To provide this prevention is the business of the National Tuberculosis Association. Tuberculosis is to be prevented by the public, more than It is a social disease and must be stamped out by social effort. It menaces every home in the country. Henry Ward Beecher said yellow fever was God Al- mighty’s opinion of dirt. The same, plus ignorance and in- difference, might be said of tuberculosis. Don’t take “cures” or “patent medicines.” They are all fakes. The only cure is to build up the system so as to throw off the disease. Sixty-seven thousand eight hundred and eighty-two Amer- ican soldiers were killed or died during the year of the war. At the same time 150,000 men, women and children were slaughtered by the great white plague at home. Tuberculosis is an industrial disease, attacking workers in the prime of life. It has made more widows and orphans in the United States than all our wars put together. It is a secret disease, insidious, treacherous as a snake. More than 100,000 drafted men were kept out of the war by this disease. Among the ways to prevent this disease the National Tu- berculosis Association gives these: By teaching the consumptive to destroy his sputum. By teaching all people not to sleep, live or work in dark or badly ventilated rooms. By discovering the disease in its early stages. This is particularly the work of organizations and individual phy- sicians, sy educating the-community as to the nature of the dis- ease, that it is communicable, preventable and curable. By advocating fresh air, outside life, sunshine, rest, no overstrain, whether at work or in exercise, wholesome food and temperate habits. By providing institutions, nurses and dispensaries for those who are affected with the disease. By insisting on periodic physical examinations for every one, well or sick. The effort to abolish the spit-ball is popular. The world is growing very tired of things that can't be controlled. The Tongue.
