AUTO THIEVERY
BY CITY CROOKS
Cities All Through Country VIII Band
Together to Wipe Out This
Source Of Trouble.

| In cities all through the country the
campaign against automobile thievery
| is being pressed with vigor and the
motorists have generally started to
take the matter into their own hands
Commentator has been given to the
plan Of making the life of the automo.
bile thief unbearable whenever and
wherever hands may be laid upon him.
Authorities in many cities found 1t
impossible to cope with the organized
thievery being carried on. 1t Is evil
dent that but a short time will ipter-
vene before the authorities Of An1eri.
can cities will institute proceedings in
court which will make the theft Of an
automobile quite as hazardous an oc-
cupation as burglary, horse stealing or
other offenses for which long prison
terms are given.
Motorists generally are pointing to
many long terms in prison which are
given constantly for tfrefts Of a few
cents, perhaps, of food maybe, for a
starving family and for small offenses
and are comparing such sentences oft
entimes of many years, with the few
months given to motor car thief. The
motorists are demanding new laws to
cover this offense, and 1t Is highly
probable that within the near future
general action will be taken through
out America which will put sudden
check to the so-called joy-riders, who
are in reality thieves.
In the meantime the campaign Of
frightfulness is becoming almost ma
tional issue, and, while at present 1t
involves only the thorough thrashing
of the thief before turning him over
to the authorities, there is every in
dication that the very near future will
see actual murder done In one form
or another when thief has been
caught redhanded. Motorists will
fight for their own cause when the
authorities will not back them up.
From one end Of the country to the
other the reports indicate the same
lax methods in treating with this class
of criminals, and show strong indi-
cation that the motorists are acting
for themselves In many instances
the authorities, unable to cope with
the offenders or to apprehend and pun
ish them, are commencing their fell
low motorists for their activities in
making life miserable for the thieves.
When the time comes, as 1t will come.
for more forceful methods than the
mere "beating up" of thief, the ma
t1onal authorities will surely take a
hand to prevent more actual killings
and the laws will be made to fit the
case. Thieves will be sentenced to
terms long enough to make the bust
ness unattractive.

TO COOK ALL KINDS

| A fish demonstration by experts
from the department of commerce,

! Friday afternoon at 3:15 o'clock. keo-
kuk housewives are especially invited
| to attend the demonstration and learn
how to make use of various kinds OF

ed fish in several different ways, and
will pass out bits of the fish in order
| to give an idea Of how the dishes Will
taste Mr.. Southall. another of the
experts in the demonstration, will tell
about smoking fish, and may use his
portable smokehouse to show fisher
men and housewives how to prepare
and cure some of the less popular va
rieties of Mississippi river fish.
! The department is trying to i'm
press on the housewives that Friday
/ should not be the only fish day. Also
| that fish meat contains as much body
| building food as beef steak, and that
/ fish is as readily digested as other
meats. bulletin sent out by the de-
| partment suggests that there are vast
possibilities in the increase of meat
] supply by the fisheries. The bureau
urges consumption of fresh fish, II
near the source Of supply, and Kcc-
kuk is admirably situated for this.
| Salt fish is also urged on people, also
smoked fish, especially bowfin, carp.
shark herring, cells and the like.
The Carp Is Good.
| Keokuk people will be especially
interested in the bulletin on the carp.
Carp is abundant here, and could be
put to good use, if it were not for
prejudice against It, The fisheries
demonstrators here Friday will tell
you that: .
| The carp discovered America in
1877, and he found the land to his
liking. He multiplied and filled the
/ waters with his kind.
/ This meat is wholesome and nu
/ tritious. 1t contains as much protein
as sirloin steak. 1t is easily digest.

as to remove the muddy taste. 1t can
be boiled, baked, made into Gro

There are millions OF carp in the
