The motto of the hooch miser is: Lips that touch liquor shall never touch mine. The Venus of Milo has no arms, but nobody ever not'ees it. Those who make a horrible noise when they eat make a s'ill more horrible noise when they don't eat. r air 7 ''HE wave of moral turpitude, which reformers assure us is sweeping over this country, has been blamed on the War, on Bolshevism, the High Cost of Living, Prohibition, Women's Suffrage and the Movies. It does not seem to have occurred to anyone to give the Devil a little credit. Nobody believes in the Devil any more. In fact, nobody believes anything any more, excepting the dope the newspapers print about our favorite actors and movie stars. Our ancestors were wiser. When any- thing went wrong, they blamed it on the Devil and let it go at that. Then they went on about their business, and it wasn't long before things righted them- selves again. The Devil is perfectly willing to take the responsibility for all the evil in the world. He has a reputation to keep up, and he is proud of his ability as a mis- chief maker. It must be making him devilish sore, after putting in a hard day's work breeding trouble, to pick up the evening paper and find that his con- nection with the matter has been utterly ignored. Perhaps that is why he works so much harder the next day trying to convince us men of little faith that he is still do- Play ing business at the old stand. After a person has been in the public eye as long as His Satanic Majesty, he is not going to be relegated to obscurity without a struggle. How do you suppose Harding or Jack Dempsey or George M. Cohan or Henry Ford would feel if the newspapers sud- denly stopped printing their names? Or, to bring it a little nearer home, how did you feel that time when you won a silver cup in the golf tournament and the pap- ers got your name spelled wrong? Even a murderer feels aggrieved when the story of his crime is buried in the lower left hand corner of an inside page. But give him a three column spread on the front page, and he will go to the chair with a smile on his lips. Publicity is tho breath of life to all of us. The modest, shrinking violet who hates to see his name in print is nearly as rare as the Dodo. And the Dodo has been extinct a long, long time. There has been a conspiracy of silence in regard to the Devil. The present gen- eration knc.'a hiui only as a grotesque figure used to advertise devilled ham and a certain brand of mineral water. He yearns to be known and hated for him- self alone Let us give the Dovil his due.
