FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT
Prohibition Forces Will Organize fol
City Elections, to See That New
Law 10 Enforced

The prohibition forces that conduct
ed the recent campaign met Sunday
afternoon in the First Methodist
church, and took steps to organize a
permanent body for the purpose OF
seeing to the proper enforcement OF
the prohibition law when it takes eff
feet, in January, 1916.
About fifty of the workers were
present at the meeting, including sew
eral ladies', and a general discussion
was had over the best plan to pursue
in the spring city elections campaign
and a name for the organization. The
consensus of opinion was that the or
ganization should get behind the can
didates they were sure of enforcing
the law
Mrs. H. B. Mcneil, Councilman A.
S. Brecht and E. B. Crazy were ap
pointed a committee to report name
and plan of organization on Sunday

BASKETBALL GAMES OFF
Aberdeen High School Decides to
Omit Games With Hoquiam High
During This Season.

Coach Hawley of the Aberdeen
high school notified Coach Ehrhart
of the Hoquiam high, Saturday that
the two games set for play during
the winter months between Aberdeen
and Hoquiam were called off.
The league as announced shortly
after the county teachers institute
at Aberdeen, is composed of two
groups of high schools, Hoquiam
Aberdeen, Cosmopolis and Montesano
being in one group. and Satsop, Elma
and McCleary being in the other
Each team was to play every other
team in it's group twice, and the win
ners of the two groups were to play
for the county championship.
The reason given by the Aberdeen
school officials for cancelling the
games is that the basketball games
for the past year or two have beer
altogether too rough between those
teams and it has been thought better
to omit the games than to risk any
more rough house play between the
students of the two high schools.

THE POULTRY SHOW
Coming Annual Show Of the Grays
Harbor Poultry Association Will
Be Largest Yet Held

That not less than 1000 birds will
be cooped at the coming show of the
Grays Harbor Poultry association
Christmas week in the Masonic TEN
pie in Aberdeen. is the opinion OF
Chris Daniels. one of the HoquiaM
directors. who has been workine
hard for weeks to bring out a large
entry list. Mr.. Daniels believes the
number may go to 1900, and states
the Masonic Temple will accommo.
date a still larger number II neces
sary, as the balconies can be used
for tiers Ut coops.
The work of installing the coops
commenced Thursday under direction
Of G. r. Staples Of Cosmopolis, who
was appointed superintendent at a
meeting Of the directors held Tues
day night.
At the same meeting it was decid-
ed to charge an admission of 10
cents to the show, instead Of having
no admission, as was intended earl
Ter. The large number of persons
who have become members of the as
sociation in the automobile drawing,
which is still on, will Of course be
entitled to free admission, but the
financial necessities of the case are
forcing the directors to charge a
small admission to the general pub
lie.

Attracted the Mice,

One curious result of foreign inva-
sion is recorded in the letters OF Prince
Metternch to Nine. de Lievcn. From
Judenburg, a small town in Syria, the
prince wrote: THE burgomaster here
has been eXpatiating to me on the
large amount of damage done by mice
to farms in the surrounding district
On inquiring how long they had been
afflicted in this way | was told, Since
the French were here DO you mean
to tell me the French brought mice
with them? | asked. No. replied the
burgomaster, but they ate SO much
bread that they covered our fields with
crumbs, and since then all the mice in
Syria appear to have settled here ~

WEEK TO Christians
RECEIVER FOR COMPANY
w. L. Ballard Brings Suit Against the
Jefferson Oil Company and Asks
for Receiver

A suit was filed in the superior
court Saturday by w. L. Ballard, of
the Aberdeen World Office staff, to re-
cover $791 from the Jefferson Oil Co.
Mr.. Ballard bought a claim of the
World for advertising, for which he
repeatedly endeavored to have stock
issued him at 10 cents share and
failed. When the property was leased
to A. w. Lane for ten years, Mr.. Bal
lard thought it was time to get busy,
hence the suit, in which he asks that
receiver be appointed.
This suit may, and doubtless will
bring up the question of the validity
of the Lane lease, to which many of
the minor stockholders express dis
satisfaction.
