Maud Horton, of Beverly, was
brought before Judge Lippincott, on
Thursday, charged with violating the
terms of her parole. In February,
1915, she had been found guilty OF
adultery. At that time she was shown
to be addicted to the use of liquor.
She was placed on parole, after prom
Using to abstain from the use of whisk-
ey.
She violated that promise, however,
on several occasions, by becoming in
toxicated. The Court decided she
needed disciplining, SO she was sent tc
Jail, and this week will be committed

boys.

Burlington, his native city. His
money gave out, so he entered the Sill

hotel and took the iewelry. He had
been drilling with the military COM
pany in the Auditorium building that
night, and afterward, while passing
through one of the Railways, he found
the door of the Silpath apartments un-
locked and he committed the theft.
He said he was IL years of age.
When asked how he could join a mill
tary company at that age, he replied
that he had told the officers that he
was IS.
He was placed on parole for three
years. He promised to pay the costs
Of prosecution and to relinquish smok-

THE NEWS is in receipt of an
other communication which is prompt
ed by our suggestion, made last week
that there should be published a state
ment of the receipts and expenditures
for opening the school auditorium. The
writer thinks this will be very good
way of giving the taxpayers a chance
to know who is paying and who is not
as well as showing what are considered
absolutely educational subjects.
Several instances are referred to in this
communication where the building
has been used by societies, and the
question is asked whether they have
paid or been allowed free use of the
auditorium. We know of some in
stances where the sum of SIS has been
charged and cheerfuIly paid for an
evenings occupancy, but there the
knowledge ceases. A statement of re-
ceipts and expenses would go a great
way toward answering questions that
are now being asked.

cieties, and not let anyone else have
the room free. We taxpayers don't
think we ought to have to pay the bill

the school expenses, instead of adding
to the high cost of the schools.

If the citizen does not buy from the merchant, the merchant cannot buy from the manufacturers, the manufac- turer must discharge his employees, and you will have very hard times, depression, fear and stagnation that the country should most carefully avoid.
 To stop the circulation of money in the community, to discourage buying and selling is like stopping the cir culation of blood in the human body.
 The good citizen while doing his duty and working faithfully will con- tinue his life as usual, buying, en- couraging his fellow citizens in busi- ness, going to the shops, theaters, giving to his family the things to which they are accustomed, helping to carry the country along in the nor mai prosperous channel.
 The life of nation is running stream; it must not be stopped, froz- en by fear, or damned up suddenly by those that preach false and harm full economy.
 We are going to win this war if we proceed intelligently and prepare en- ergetically.
 We are going to be just when the war is over.
 We are going to come out of it, as we went into it, not quite so rich, but still the richest, most powerful na- ton in the world.
 They are foolish who try to make the people a body of timid children, suddenly changing their lives and injuring the country's business struc- ture.
