ion Church Rev. A. A. Ebersole, the
associate minister, will give the third
and last Of DR. Patton's Illustrated
Lectures on Africa Sixty-seven beau
tifully colored stereopticon slides
will be shown, reproductions all Of
them of photographs taken by DR..
Patton himself on recent tour
through the mission fields of Africa.
The two former lectures dealt with
central and southern Africa. Tomor-
row nights views all have to do with
the west central African district of
Angola
Those who have attended the lee
lures have found them of unusual in
terest. Not only are the pictures of
an exceptionally high order but Dr..
Patton's descriptions are wonderfully
keen and discriminating, and illumi-
mated throughout by real humor.
This concluding lecture in the series
promises to be no less attractive.

Raising and Maintaining Ducks and
Other Fowls
"This bill in terms prohibits, in Sec
ton 1, the sale of fish or other prod
ucts of ponds wherein tame ducks and
other fowls are raised and maintain
ed and provides, in section 2, that in
sofar as the punishment may be by
Imprisonment it shall be at hard la
Dor not less than one nor more than
six months
THE principal objection to the first
section is that the word "and" is used
instead of "or" between tame ducks"

conoressmen Used AS Targets.

Washington.-Eleven members OF
the senate and house naval affairs
committee, including Representative
A. w. Gregg of Texas, came within an
ace of being blown to pieces while
witnessing naval target practice at
Judith Sound, ninety miles south OF
Washington, Friday. Attempting TO
shoot while a thick haze hung over
the water, the gunners on the monitor
Tallahassee mistook for the target the
Yacht Dolphin, on board OF which
were most of the members of the Of
ficial party. The SOO-pound SHE'LL pro-
pelled from a 1O-inch gun, passed al
rectly over the stern of the Dolphin
so closely as to cut one of the ropes
attached to the yachts rigging. Ins
she'll exploded just before striking thu
water and the committee members
while thoroughly frightened, suffered
nothing more serious than drenchln'
from the spray.

CALIFORNIA; new ALIEN BILL
WOULD DENY LAND OWNERSHIP
TO pEBARRED cITiZENSHlPS.
"Not Dignity of Japan, But Dignity OF
California at Stake" Says Gov
ernor Hiram johnson.

Sacramento, Cal-Not the dignity
of Japan, but the dignity of California
is at stake in the controversy over
the anti-alien land law, according 10
Governor Johnson, and If the plans Oh
the democratic party here give Of
tense to the government at TOXIC
California is abscSved from blame on
the ground that federal statutes al
ready have drawn the line which the
state now seeks to establish.
In a statement issued Friday. Gov
ernor Johnson defined the position OF
the legislative majority in the matter,
trusting that Secretary of State Bryan
who is going to Sacramento to present
the views of the federal administra-
ton, might learn thereby the attitude
of California toward law denying
land ownership in the state to aliens
barred from citizenship in the nation
That this restriction applies to the
subjects of Japan or any other nation
is not the fault of California, accora
ing TO the views of the governor.
Such a law is being drafted by Sen
ator Thompson. 1t will be known al
the alien land act and will apply sole
:. w to members of foreign races de
, scribed in federal laws and judicial oe
cisions as ineligible to citizenship u
the United States.
When Secretary Bryan arrives d
will be confronted with the new dral
t of the bill and the question OF wheti
n er 1t is discriminatory. Governor JON
, sons view on this point is set forth
e his statement as follows:
e "The nation has solemnly DECIDE
J. that certain races, among them u
z Japanese, are not eligible to citlze
5. ship. The line has been drawn n
m by California, but the United state
discrimination occurred when the .
ton declared who were and who we
not eligible to citizenship II "a
&c fornia follows the line marked out
al the federal government, the Unit
40 States and not California snouia
a accused of discrimination

ng ceived the idea Of calling a conferel

es. Nevada and Arizona, to meet W
