The members of the commission have

soon to see a tea room or rest room

men need social centers where they can
gather for amusement and recreation
as the men do. and where they can
have a bit of interesting gossip over a
social cup ofVea. These tea rooms may
eventually come from the women's
clubs, .which hava nlfeady sons a long
wav toward giving a stability to the
working force of the Isthmus.
There la a club at every American
settlement, and these are ail members
of the local Federation of Women's
Clubs, which holds regular eetlngs
at the Tlvoll hotel. Literature and the
live questions of canal life form the
topic discussed at the club meetings.
Like their sister clubwomen in the
States, the clubwomen of the canal ions
are eliminating all social lines that have
been built solely on a basis of monetary

(Copyright, J908, by Frederic J. Haskln.)
Waahlncton. July 18. "The prin
cipal drawback we are now experl-
encing In the building of the canal
le the lack of rational amusements
for the people." In these words
Colonel Goethals, the chairman and
chief engineer of the canal, summed
ap the situation with reference to
the entertainment of the canal em
ployes. He added that congress had
' "teen aiked to provide additional
club houses and funds for ths pur--pose,
but that It had seen fit to
ignore the demand.
It does not taka one long to discover
the truth ot tha assertion of Colonel
Ooethali. At Cristobal, Oorgona, Em
. plre and Culebra they have T. M. C.
X. clubhouses. Wherever these are,
they have become the dominant factor
in the social side of Isthmian life. They
provide good, healthy entertainment for
the people; yet to on American settle
ment that has a clubhouse, there are
three that have none: In the fown
Where there are no clubhouses, about
the only tfiing the men can do is to r"
to the nearest saloon and drink bod
liquor. And this ihey usually do. in
i the four towns where the Y. M. C A.
i clubhouses are located, barroom re
ceipts fell off about 76 per cent with
in a short time after the clubhouses
were opened. Before the clubhouses
were built the saloon was the only gen
eral meeting place available. Th

no lobbies, the offices were closed af

' garlous creatures and wanting to meet
and talk, went, perforce, to these drink
. ing places, It made DO .difference that
the beer was flat and cost 25 cents
; per bottle, or that the whiskey was
bad and cost 15 cents for a good-simd
thimbleful of it. Neither did it make
; any difference that no chairs or tabhss
were allowed in the places. Kven at
the cost of standing up half the night
they would meet to talk matters over.
Strange Things at the T. M. C. A.
i When the Y. M. C. A. rooms were
; opened practical men were placed at
their head. One would not think of
' card-playing and dancing at a Y. M. C.
A. in the states, but both are to be
found in association homes on the isth
mus. Bowling alleys, bllllard-roomu,
frymnaslums, and many other places
or entertainment were established in
j. the buildings. Bowling teams were or
ganized, billiard and pool contests wtie
started, gymnastic instruction was giv
en, pleasant reading-rooms with a com
plete supply of leading newspapers and
. periodicals, together with a large array
" of trade Journals, were provided, soda
fountains were established, and in gen
eral the places were made more attrac-
tlve than any other spot in the town. ,
The result has been the practical
, i desertion of the saloons. The bow ling
alleys are busy every evening, and j
soma of the most spirited contests vr
witnessed may be seen on these alleys :
There ar a number of teams In each
Y. M. C. A. town, and these usually
I settle their own little contests and thon
tackle the champions from the other
j towns. There Is somethinK doing when
these championship Karnes are rolled.
