FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3. 1915 THE GAMBLER AND VIDE. The mayor of a certain Michigan town issued an order to prohibit gambling. Then came the circulation of a petition protesting against the suppression of gambling and games of chance because " it would damage business.” By what manner of reasoning any merchant figures it out that gambling helps business, is a conundrum. The gambler is a producer of no business. He creates nothing for the community, but lies in wait for easy marks that they may be bled. Gamblers live off ths in dustry of other people. They rob the home of money that should go toward the necessities of life. They strip the child of shoes and clothing. They are warts upon the escutcheon of the body politic. When crusades were started for the suppression of the vice evil, there was a hue and cry that it "w ould hurt busi ness." From the viewpoint of some, morality and decency and virtue can go the dogs, so long as “ business is not hurt." The city which has no gambling and no dens of iniquity is the city that is on a sound foundation. Money which would vanish in riotous living, finds its way into legitimate channels of trade. The home benefits. The merchant ben efits. The community benefits. Gambling and vice never made any city. That Michigan town should throw those petitions into the scrap heap, and support the mayor in all his efforts to make the place a better town in which live. ing games with a dance in the evening.
