Coma cover the Top,"

Every community makes it's little
bow and brag. Over the top for Red
Cross! "Over the top" for the "Y"
fund! "Over the top" in a member
ship drive! A little of this is perhaps
well to keep the nerves tingling, but
after all. the real thought is not OF
what we have done, but Of what we
can and must do. With three to five
years of giving and of sacrifice and of
sorrowful returns from Europe in pros
pect, the greatest burdens are still
before US. The war is not gong to be
won with a whoop. 1t is going to take
hard, persistent, driving work. The
force Of every man and every woman
is needed. Any system, however,
which will serve to bring all the re-
sources into play is helpful. whether
it be by the whooping route or BY
calm, deliberate organization that
doesn't quit with going "over the toy"
Eureka.

POOL HALL Is !.
LAWLESSSAYS
SUPT, WATKINS
Head of the Law Enforcement
League Announces Demand
for Their Prohibition

Speaking generally, the pool hall is
a lawless institution" said Supt. Wat.
kins of the North Dakota Law En-
forcement league, addressing the cOun
Gil of defense this morning. "Eefore
the bone dry law became effective,
most of them were selling liquor
where they could get by with it. They
are now selling cigarettes. Many are
selling snuff Many permit gambling.
A very large per cent allow minors
under 1S to loitre about or participate
in the games. Pool halls will have to
clean up or we will pass law elm.
mating them entirely.
The pool hall is the worst place in
North Dakota for the concoction of
meanness and the starting of bad in
fluences. They are common hot-beds
of profanity, and, what is worse, OBJ
scenity Eighty per cent Of them sell
cigarettes, and proprietors have in
formed me that il they don't accom-
modate their customers, their COM
petitors will. Many of them allow pa
irons to bring in their bottles and
mix their drinks at the counter. We
We have more complaints against the
pool hall than everything else Jumped
to gether. There is general and in
sistent demand for their absolute pro-
hibition."
The council heard pool hall repre-
sentatives yesterday, and will again
give them chance to speak this af'
ternoon. The hearing is on>a resolu.
ton passed by Labor's Loyalty legion
at Fargo recently demanding that pool
halls be closed during the daylight
hours through the summer.
