The canteen or the dive - in the name of decency and common sense, which is best for the American soldier? / Will Crawford.

Illustration shows an Army officer with a woman labeled "W.C.T.U." a clergyman, and a man labeled "Timid Legislator" standing in a doorway, viewing scenes in a canteen, where soldiers are playing chess and reading, and a dive where soldiers are drunk, arguing, and consorting with prostitutes. Includes a lengthy caption about "W.C.T.U." efforts to close canteens and the government's unwillingness to reinstate them.

Illus. in: Puck, v. 73, no. 1877 (1913 February 19), centerfold.
