Therefore the crime i hidden, and does not show up where the editor would be likely to run across it. If he had been looking for evidence all he had to do was to consult the Telegram reporter, who found 30 out of 32 hotels selling intoxicants. We heard one time of two men who visited the city of Paris. One of tlic';,e enquired of his friend, who was a resident of that gay city,, where all the crime and wickedness was that he had hc'iird so much about.

The man with the muck rake could always find some dirt to scrape, but the man who held his head high never saw the dirt. The above is true to-day in our Canadian cities true in all lines of crime as well as O.T.A. delinquencies. It is true that conditions are not com- parable lo pro-prohibition days, in which the open bar held ?way and did its deadly work, still conditions arc very fur from perfect. The muck still exists and the man with the rake can find it, just ns he can find a place in the underworld if he desires to eschew all that is good and ele- vating.
