Such states as Kansas and Okla
homa, where prohibition rules, prob
ably have no need for the convivial
clock as a horrible example But it
may still find a place In Missouri,
Texas and other states where the
dry" forces have not won complete
victories. The main feature of this
unique clock consists of crystal COB
let filed with water and marked
around the top with the hours. 1t

placed a carved figure of wood, with
one hand made of iron, drunken
leer On it's face. Another figure, also
that of an obviously intoxicated per-
son stands outside and apparently at
tempts to grasp the hand of the indi-
vidual in the water-presumably for
the purpose of helping him off of his
new form Of water wagon" He never
succeeds, but the result is that the
hand Of the figure in the water Is al.
ways pointing to the hour. The at
traction which brings this condition
about is magnet in the hands OF
the upright figure. which acts on the
iron hand.

MOVING PICTURES TEACH WAR

Moving picture shows especially de-
signed to foster patriotic and warlike
sentiments have been placed on view
in Berlin. The idea originated with
the German Patriotic society, whose
aim is to educate the people in the
matter of tactics and strategy on the
battlefield and to make the object of
different movements of troops plain
to the lay mind. The first show was
a cinematograph demonstration of
How we won the day at Sedan"
with verbal explanations by two army
officers. Evidently it is not to Ger
many that Andrew Carnegie must
look for support of his peace ideals.

shouted: Money or your life. Hands

arm, but the other de could not raise

threats, the highwayman grabbed him
by the hand which he had not raised
and gave it sharp wrench. That was
all that was necessary. The arm fell
