Who should support to the last degree the labor men who will be called upon to make this fight, and against whom all the bitterness of the liquor traffic will be hurled."

HOME HIST IN SACRAMENTO

Discussing "Married Men and the Saloon," the commission says:
"It is a striking fact that married men spend more time in the saloon than single men. This is somewhat startling, because married life is supposed to have a sobering effect upon a man. Can it be that in many of these cases the home has failed to function? For let it be said with all the emphasis possible, that in the last analysis the home must be the best substitute for the saloon. It is very generally true that men do not do their part in making the home what it should be from the social standpoint; and perhaps too much has been said about wives failing to make themselves and their homes more attractive, thus driving their poor husbands to drink; but the fact remains that a careful student of the subject revealed that about twice as many married men go to the saloon as do single men. This may be due to the higher idealism of the younger men, and it may also be attributed to the fact that they spend a great deal of time in the company of their sweethearts, who naturally would not visit the saloon with them.
