If there are no counter-attractions and no 44 On Billets and Care of tlte Men places where they can spend their evenings in warmth and comfort, they will probably all go to the public-houses or to the can- teen and small blame to them. The greatest cause of drunkenness is treating, for many misguided people think that they are displaying their patriotism by rendering His Majesty's soldiers in- capable. The use of the gallon measure in the canteen is also conducive to drunken- ness. Four men go ...to the canteen to- gether ; one orders a gallon from which they all drink, the others later on also each order a gallon, with the result that each man has by the end of the evening had a whole gallon. The sporting chance of a man being able to get a little more than his share seems to have a fascination, for had each man gone in and ordered his own drink he would probably have paid for a quart and this would have sufficed him. At all events, I know that the aboli- tion of the gallon pot in certain canteens very much decreased drunkenness.
