Already the Demon Alcohol has been completely annihilated in our country. Had he been allowed to live, our population would have continued decreasing rapidly, our wealth would have continued dwindling; in short, the country, from the strong and glorious land of 1492, would have become a field of bones and ruins. But alcohol has passed and is forgotten; the country is completely dry. Never is a drunken man seen; in no street car or subway hovers a whiskey breath; no idiotic gaiety can be found in our cafes; every one is serious; no one drinks nor even desires a drink...

...Shirley, as the Flapper. She appeals without being saccharine, and is so attractively vivacious that it is no small wonder the movie magnates have not attempted to rob the "legitimate" of another "queen."

...Pagan Morals." We half expect an uncompromising attack or even an apology for the ancient and mythical man of straw, who is supposed to reign in Harvard square, with zones of influence extending far up Brattle street and as far down as the dens of Boylston Hall,--the demon of irreligion. But what Mr. Wright gives us is a colorful web of reminiscence and meditation.
