IIOMH HKKW AM) KRAIN I'OWKR
A veritable tidul wuv of inU'llcctiial energy was unleashed
liy the ii(li)ition of the eighteenth iiniendment, reniyrks the
.Saturday Evening Post. Contemplating the activitien of "mill
ions of resourceful and self-reliant Americans" since they were
deprived of their favorite beverages, the Post philosophizes as
f allows:
"There can he no particular impertinence in making it
friendly estimate of the sum of their united efforts and in ask-
- jng if the same amount of zealous thought and personal activ.
ity turned into other channels might not, in the long run, yield
them rather larger and more satisfactory returns; for no candid
critic can deny that the aggregate product of their intellectual
ufTort daily corked up in bottles, carboys and demipohns has
reached dimensions of real economic importance. Indeed, it
is not hard to believe that if all tne new thought )ower now be
ing devoted to homemade beverages could be rounded up antl
broken to harness it would suffice to invent and establish a
. workable league of nations,solve the problems of capital and
labor and materially speed up a lagging millennium,"
Here, indeed, is a theme worthy of the highest thought of
economists, philosophers and statesmen. If all that brain-power
could really be applied to constructive and beneficial purposes,
lint every student of errant human nature knows the futility
of any such hope. , The home-brewer is utilizing his lofty intel
ligent for brewing purposes precisely because he is more in
terested in brewing than in establishing a league of nations or
solving the labor problem, and because he sees his millennium
through the bottom of , a glass, darkly.
The fact is that civilized man has. always had a tremend
ous lot of power to waste, and if he doesn't waste in one way
lie is pretty sure to do so in another. Vices are maitdy a means
of getting rid of a troublesome superfluity of physical and
mental energy. Men drink and smoke up anil gamble up their
extra brain power, or expend it in other ways, almost as much
' fts they use it constructively. Homo-brewing is merely the lat
est manifestation. They might take to gardening, or scientific
baking, or industrial chemistry, or home-weaving or furniture
making, or the study of mathematics and astronomy, if only a
paternal government would prohibit such occupations.
thin evening are auked to meet at the
Foley hotel at C:l!i lhi evening, ac
cording to announcement by Secretary
('. 11. Miller thin noon. Mr. 'Miller
ankri that thoite having machine all

Karl Stoddard, president of the
Country Club, who will be in charge
of the meeting thin evening, hus uv
rmiifed a special program of music
for the occasion. It is probable that
the directors of the Union Stock Show
will be gueats of the club this even
