In speaking of some of the permissive clauses in the Licensing Act a snort time since, Mr. Yogei thought that amongst other remedial sieps it should be, made necessary that the bars of all public houses should have open glass windows, like ordinary shops, so that it would be clearly seen who' was■drinking-, within them, and what Scenes were taking place there. If this were done, he believed the present drinking habits would, to a great extent, be done away with. Many persons who frequented public houses did so under-the knowledge that they would be shut out from, the sight ot the passers-by ; bat very shame would prevent them from "taking'part in the scenes which sometimes took place in public houses, it the windows were opened like those, cf ordinary shops.
