Two policemen picked her up on the street , dead drunk , and sent her there in an ambulance When found , she had a nearly empty brandy flask in her hand. Her mother had given her twenty . -vd cents -spend , and the child had run out among her companions of the street and called gleefully : "We'll all go on a spree ! Let's all get drunk ! " They suggested. candy , but she said : "No caudv forme , I want whisky ! " She persuaded a thirteen-year-old boy to purchase the whiskey for her , and the bartender who sold it has been arrested. The children did not share Mary's potations , luit formed a line and followed her most unsteady steps until she fell senseless , crying , "Mary's drunk ! Mary's drunk ! " ' Her parents , worthy working people , are heart-broken. "UTe cannot account for Mary's action , " they sa } " . ' /She had never tasted liquor to our knowledge. " Proximity to bar rooms , the sight of older people going in and outsuggested this evil thing to the child. The ac cursed sj'stem which licenses bar-rooms and permits the sale of poisou to chil dren is to blame. God speed the day when children may tread our streets in safety !
