Merely as a matter of historical interest here are some j-! J FACTS showing the growth of the inn, tavern or saloon. ; I* IFE was very simple when the race was young. People traveled . - 111 l little. They lived and died within a few miles of where they -jS** 'f J were born. There were no saloons or taverns then because there iftwf *.. _ | was no demand for them. As time ran on the people multiplied, spread out discovered new territory. Travelers became more frequent At this stage hospitality was a sacred duty. As an ex- 'ft"V I~* ample of the spirit of the age Abraham, In Genesis 14:18 says that I in nis travels he was entertained by Melchizedik, king of Salem, VH \ ( who "brought forth bread and wine." , , !y» • »Ui MEN soon began to make a business of selling to travelers. The next 6tep was to establish taverns where wine and food as well as lodging 4 were on tap. These inns were common in Biblical j § times. Paul met the brethren from Rome at the Three Taverns, a pj .

This j „ demand was met by the developmeijj of the ale-house or inn. In these taverns provisions, beer, ale and wine were served in a largo ifxri room, which corresponds to the bar in modern hotels and inns. WTiißp'liSWl^i During the 15th century local people began to recognize the value |l|. JJ j I of a tavern or saloon and the patronage was no longer culled only uj r^. from the travellers. a - ..... , TIHE taverns and post-houses, as they were also called, became ■ V TPJ ■ places of much importance. Lord and Commoner, Cavalier and v . I Round-head, Tradesman and Soldier all frequented the great room nTf*"Ti | of the inn and jnade merry while they could. Social differences were forgotten.. The saloon was, thingjofj the past. 4 IN the time immediately preceeding the railroads the taverns and innsibecame very popular. The effect of railways was "to multiply the hotels in great centers. These were increased in size until ! they could accommodate thousands of guests. The present-day bar or saloon was the result of this congestion. The inns could not take care of the trade, local and transient Saloons sprang j up and gradually began to handle the bulk of the business in beer and wine, spirits and cordials; With the advent of the automobile the inns came back into their own and now in the picturesque) I I and cultured sections of the country they have assumed their former importance. * I I i TS it not a FALLACY toJbpld that the saloon has no part in the world's work when FACTS J !
