Softly, oh soilly, the yeass have

Touching thee lightly with tender

Yet they have left thee but beauty

Growing old gracefully,

Far from the waves that are big with

T. Webb and Patrolman Price took
part In the raid. The amount of
liquor secured was tho largest the

hibition law became effective
Captains arrest, q lawyer stated yes

whether or not tho police have the
right to search any residence in which
they think more than the prescribed

Chief Mitchell said he secured in
formation yesterday that a negro

 I would like to add also that this two- year period would go back of the begin ming of the European war and that build- ing now is not more than 15 to IS per cent higher than it was at the lowest ebb of building operations following the begin ming of the great war.
 Such statement even though it is an advertisement, is a great blow toward our proposed bond issue and if I thought that building operations were now even 30 per cent greater than they were two years ago, at which time material was con- sidered normal I would most certainly vote against such bond issue.
