Home Made Beer is
Popular in Spokane


SPOKANE, Aug. S-Half dozen
large breweries IN Spokane were
closed January 1916. according to
law, but in their places hundreds of
small individual breweries have
sprung up.
Today practically every drugstore
in Spokane is prepared to furnish pat
rons with printed formula for maxi
ing homemade beer and the hardware
stores of the city are reaping a small
fortune from the sale of bottling
equipment.
Even on the formulas furnished by
the drugstore is printed the name of
a dealer and grower of hops and pat
rons are solicited to send for. that por-
ton of the composition with which to
make the 'homeriade brew" which,
incidentally. may cdntain more "kiok"
than the beer turned out by the large
breweries.
Some hardware.stores of Spokane in
bidding for the trade on bottles, bottle
caps and equipment with which to put
on thecaps, have arranged large dis
plays in their windows.
The bottle caps are being sold for
10 cents a dozen or three dozen for
25 cents and, although the price is
high, one dealer declared 'that his

10 O-YEAR-OLD HERO /

ORLEANS, Mass, Aug. s.-How
l0-year-old lack Il, Ainslelgh kept

Il was tinkerlng with some paint

tain, when my attention was attract

ter off our port bow wondered
what an the commotion was about.
and then, 'boom' came an explosion
Il looked up, and there as plain as
daylight was a long, low-lying subma-
rine, half mile to the southeast"
Capt. Ainsleigh then described an
airplane which he said he saw and
believes was sent up from tine u boat.
He continued his narrative.
I'm sure the queer looking air.
plane was German plane because
the U boat stopped firing when the
plane was overhead. They didn't
want to hit their own plane, in my
opinion.
ABOUT tnat Tune my youngest lau,
Jack, came out of the forecastle,
bringing with him an American flag.
Jack took the flag to the rail and
opened it up and stood at the rail
like a corporal. shaking it in the face
of the enemy.
You can't beat my Jack for pa
triotism. What do you think he did
next? Left me to hold the flag while
he went back to the. forecastle and
brought out his 20 caliber rifle and
box of cartridges. Before he could
return, however. there was ripping
sound, and all of sudden the seven
matches of theSbarge blewNoff like all
get out.
Jack wouldn't leave tine barge
without the flag. After securing the
flag, Jack rigged it on. the orr at the
bow of the boat. We Started the en-
gine and started for shore. AS we
along could see the. chews of
the other 'barges coming over the
sides. We landed on Nauset Beach
about noon, but left most of our be-
longings behind in our hurry to get
away"

War Department Considers Plan for

The plan for the students training

CIN ADVANCE,

The return from the battle
scenes after the war of milli-
ons of manned men in times
past has been full of calamity
and wrong and some of the hor-
rors of war have followed long
after them. But it is to be diff
ferent after this war, we are
assured, because, for one great
reason, civilization is taking
another step forward. After
this world war is over, instead
of being treated as good for
only some political job, the re-
turning soldier, manned, blind
or whole, is to find, it is hoped
and believed, a great national
effort devoted to finding him a
place and fitting him into it.
No more is the war veteran to
be made dependent upon a po-
litical soft snap, or pension,
but he is to be given a chance
to earn his way, like the men
who could not or did not go to
the front.
