OK" the question of prohibition, a majority ofi the pooph take the middle road. They neither acree with the liouor interest who main tain the right to get drunk is guaranteed by the constitu tion, nor witii tue dry fanatics, who maintain that tho mil lemum will arrive with national prohibition. They op pose worn extremes ana arg groping somowiiat blindly for a mean between the two. i The entire question is a complicated one, and thought ful people on both sides of the fence grant the complica tions. If tho deep human craving for stimulant could be removed by legislation, the problem would bo simple. But it can't. Statistics show that the human race, as at pres ent constituted, craves stimulant, and if this craving is donicd in one direction it promptly makes' itself manifest in another. And until this craving is eliminated, tho suc- L-TOKiui euiuuuii ui me jji'uuieiu win no not so mucn m pro hibitive legislation, , as jn gradual ethical . evolution tlirough education and training. . The fact to remember is that: artificial stimulation does not pay. Whether it is found iu booze or drugs, the individual addicted must pay the bill, sooner or later, rind viui nnerest compounded, it is irenerallv ackmiw i-riwd for example, that whisky is not a stimulant but ?i depres sent, and far from beiusr a lioiud food, is nc.t.iiiillv n nnisnn It may give the world a meretricious brightness for a few nours, Dut tne world, smks to greater depths for longer uuuia me iic a b luymillg. But human nature is perverse. And arbitravilv i'orii manding a pel-son not to drink this or that or do this nr that; often paints the forbidden fruit with the Reductive glamour of temptation.

What is the solution! The solution of course is to ao. cure laws which have the overwhelming support of public opinion.- The abolition of the salbon is one. : No decent person; can be found to defend this iniquity.

The Cannibal Is StUl With Us WASHINGTON. D. C. AprU 17. "Cannibals !'' vou may have exclaim ed when you read recently of a na val force sent to Halekula Island, of the New Hebrides, to auell attacks of the man eaters upon white1 planters, "I thought cannibals had disappeared lone neo." "Contrary to the eenernl belief. the cannibal is still with us," says a bulletin trom the National Geoeraph ic Society. "And . cannibalism is practiced rccrulariv bv some tibes of the numerous South Sea islands. In other places it is recurrent. Mis sionaries and aerents report it stamp ed out. and thev speak truly, save for occasional lapses into barbarism of these primitive peoples iust emergine into the kindergarten stage of their civilization. "Of all the peoples of the vast South Pacific expanse where the white man's influence has been, felt at all the Malekula islanders perhaps are the most murderous, treacherous and savace. Not many i years ago ethnologists who sav some eeor shap ed skulls brought Irom the island held high hopes that there, at last, might be found the missing link which marked- the- evolutionary step from monkey to man. i : , j ., ' ' Cone Shaped Heads "Investigation soon disproved anv such theory.

If a wo man discloses a gar) in 4he rows of her gleaming white teeth it means that she is married and that the old er women have performed this opera--tion in something of the playful spirit in which rice throwing sometimes is induged in at nn American ceremony. Great Clubman "The male Malekukn is a crack marksman with the bow and 'poisoned arrow, and as inveterate a clubman as a wealthy American bachelor. In many islands of the New Hebrides each village has its club house, and upon his standing among his club fel lows, depends his rank in the commu nity; .." ':'.-.; ; (:..'. '' ; ' "Moreover there is a. combination community forum, public dance hall, and children's playground under tho banyan tree of nearly every native village, f v-:'; ; "There are' many differences' be tween the Malekulan and the natives of other islands, though most of them are obviously Malanesiun, from their thick, woolv hair, coal blaok skin, flat noses and heavy lips. The Maleku lans are accorded the palm for fcroc. ity and cruelty by many, travelers,' cnougn thev are ndt nninue nmnnff thn Hebrides -natives in these respects.
