Alcoholism In Tahiti
Papeete, Apr. 12
A CHAIN of billiard pool rooms has been opened all around the dis tricts of Tahiti, and proves to be a great help to the young generation.
Since these parlors have been opened, lads and young men do not patronise the beer saloons like they used to do, and there are fewer drunkards on the streets on Sundays and holidays.
A district chief said: “Since these billiard rooms have been opened I see fewer boys frequenting the beer and wine shops, and I notice fewer fights and drunkards on the road.”
