CHRISTMAS DIVIDEND
From Jefferson County Building and Loan
 Association

It Is so long ago now that we have almost forgotten when we started the custom of paying our January l divi- dends before Christmas. It is one of those practices that gives pleasure to both sides, the management of the as- sociation no less than the stockholders.
 IL has always been our contention that of all financial institutions, a good build ing and loan association will most surely. in good times and bad times alike. main tain It's earnings and it's interest obliga- tons. First mortgages on improved city real estate are the best of all bases of security.
 So 1t has been during he last four months, that collections have been hard. but they have come. The usual Christ mas dividend has been earned and col lected and some still left to put in the surplus account. The Christmas checks, amounting to s17, ,103.1S. are in the mails, and go freighted with the best wishes of the management

Mann's Opinion

Republican Leader Mann said: T air for temperance and against intemper- ance, but I am not able to vote for the resolution now pending, or the one which may be offered as a substitute Representative Hobsop has offered nine separate constitutional amendments dealing with national prohibition in this present Congress and I believe no one knows just what each one of them means, or what the differences may be therein"
 Representative Mann argued that ths enforcement of national prohibition would necessitate Ian army of govern ment spies with every township in the country under surveillance"
 You take away by this resolution he said, the power of the local self governments to enforce the police regu- lations which must depend upon loca public opinion for their enforcement and you turn it over to the govern ment here in Washington, which vii have no means of enforcement"
 Representative Brown of Wisconsin op posed the amendment.
 Representative Garrett of Texas said that even as an ardent supporter of state. rights he oddly was willing for his state to give up the right to tho manufacture and sale of liquor. We are will ng tt join you people of the north to destroy the liquor traffic and yet you raise thu question of states rights Every mar
 who goes into the liquor business goel in it with full knowledge the state re- serves the right to stop his business" He said 1t was absurd to talk abou destruction of property rights in the is sue.
 Representative Kahn of California op resed the amendment.
 "You cannot accomplish by law wha Christ came on earth to do." he said You cannot put good into the hearts ol men by writing words on the statute looks to be enforced by the club ol government authority.
 Support for the amendment was voiced by Representative Lindquist of Michigan who believed in the banishment from thu garden as punishment.

'KILTS NO HANDICAP
 TO ESCAPING SCOTS

Amiens, Sept. 23.-Even the grim tragedy of war his it's lighter side. Listen to the story which I heard here today while was waiting for news of the battle. says a, correspondent of the Central News:
 Down one of the side streets a. figure dressed in the uniform of the Fifth French Dragons came toward me. As he drew nearer thought his face was familiar. Then I recognized him as none other than Ghampfbr,un a vel terweight French boxer, whom last saw in the ring at Liverpool lighting Young Josephs. Since then he has fought Summers in London and made something of a name for himself. He had been with his regiment at Charleroi, Dinant and Namur. After we had shaken hands he rernarke ed: :
 i've a story for you. I have just left two of your Highlanders wffo with six teen other soldiers were made prison sers by the Germans, but were not prisoners long,
 They were captured about ten days ago." he continued. but escaped be- fore midnight, after each had pos sessed himself Of a horse and lance This is how it happened:
 ''The Germans naturally disarmed the prisoners, who besides Eighlanders consisted of some cavaIrymen and, I think, some Grenadier Guards
 ''The Germans made them march for miles along the road, but the captors got tired first, and the German guard after locking the (Britishersi in a barn. fell asleep.
 'It was not long before a London soldier who knew 3. little about locks had unfastened the door, and the Is men stole out into the darkness, past the sleeping guard.
 sThey made their way to where the horses were Eicketed, and each man took a horse and helped himself to a lance from a stack near by in case of trouble.
 ''Tehe noise they made removing the 1ances awoke the Germans, and the Britishers had time only to dash to their horses leap on their. backs and get going when a score of bullets whizzed past their heads.
 'tBut they escaped all right More than once during the night they fell in with Uhlan patrols. but always defeat ed them"
 sHow did the HIgh1anders. with 1 their kits. manage on horses?" ] asked.
 'tOh, they rode side saddle, like la dies,'i said Champbrun.
 The picture of the two Highlanders riding Nike knights errant, but like la ides, on German steeds and armed with the lances Of the Uhlans is wor- l thy Of a place in history.
