'MrsRFEaENcE WITH PERSONAL
LIBERTY.

The Chicago city council committee
on health has refused to consider an
application for a permit to open a
shop dealing exclusively In horse meat.
" not this interfering with personal
liberty, a mans right to eat or drink
what he wants, and then remember,
too, that horse meat will probably be
sold anyway in some shops whether
the permit Is granted or not.-The I'LL

The use Of alcohol results In much

that alcohol and effective work are
incompatible. Abundant liquor means

alcohol markedly interferes with the

be faulty. Alcoholism and venereal

CHAIN KNITTING PARTY

One of the interesting and enter
tanning features of the chain knitting
party given in Elks Hall, last Friday
evening was the splendid talk given
by Capt. j. w. Jackson on the "work,
entertainment and the social life of
the men in the national army" His
speech was filled with so many good
things that his auditors regretted
when he finished as they still wished
for more information about the can
tonments. "
After the speech the women spent
an hour in knitting and the men play
ed whist after which light refresh
ments were served. At the conclu-
sion Of the games of whist the prizes
were put up at auction and netted
$4,000 for the Red Cross fund.
The hostesses were Mesdames O. E.
Krone, W. ]. Husebye, j. A. Corbett,
A. A. Bradley, NJ. E. Trainor and B.

Washington, March 13.-Chairman
George Creel, Of the committee on
public information, sent q written
protest today to President Wilson
against the war departments new

handle for the department the lists
