saIvaainq a Ship Sunk 100 Years.

Work has been started off Boca
Ciega (Cojimar) by a Cuban salvage
company on the wreck Of a Spanish
vessel sunk more than hundred years
ago. The principal objects that the
company expects to recover are forty
two cannons, which. according to the
divers who performed the preliminary
exploration work, SIRE still in fine
state OF preservation, some mounted
on the deck and the others lying close
to the wreck on the floor of the sea
at a moderate depth which renders
their extraction only ordinarily diff
ficult.

PROHIBITION VICTORIES FOR

On January /, 1917 all whisky ad-
vertisements were eliminated from
the billboards of the United States
and Canada. The board of directors
of the Poster Advertising Associa-
ton which controls the boards in
four hundred towns has so decided.
In February the Alaska prohibition
bill which previously had passed the
Senate went through the House with
out amendment. This message was
sent to Mrs. Mitchner by Mr.. Shouse
February 81, 1917. 1t was the first
prohibition measure passed by Con-
gress and is the forerunner of others
The anti-cigaret law was approved
March IL, 1917 and goes into effect
as soon as published in the statute
books.
Here we have list of the states
adopting prohibition in 1917: Ne
braska, South Dakota, Utah and Dis
trict of Columbia. M. M. Claflin,
president of the Nebraska W. G. 7.
U.writes the record of Nebraska has
been remarkable in the enforcement
of the law. Officers in the counties
in the main have been diligent and
faithful. Hon. Frank M. Bryne for
governor of South Dakata says, the
people of South Dakota are well
satisfied with statewide prohibition
and have no thought of abandoning
it,. The Constitutional amendment
was adopted by the voters at the
fall election of 1915 and went into
effect July l, 1917.
The governor of Utah said on Aug
ust 1, 1917, seventy-five per cent of
the people of Utah were firm be-
levers in prohibition. On October
ninety-eight per cent are ardent pro-
hibitionists. Could we wish for a
stronger endorsement. One of the
most significant dates of the year
1917 was November 1, the day on
which prohibition key locked the
door of every saloon and bar-room in
the district of Columbia. A day in
which to remember gratefully the
men in Congress who voted favorably
for the Sheppard bill providing for
prohibition in the District of Column
bia, Washington, D. G. December
II, 1917, the House of Representa-
tives by vote of 282 to 1913, ma
jority of eight votes in excess of the
necessary two-thirds, adopted an
amendment providing for the pro-
hibition of the liquor traffic in the
U. S. one year after the ratification

MARY PICKFoRD COMING

The supreme favorite among all
moving picture stars, Mary Pickford,
will be at the Photoplay Wednesday
and Thursday of next week, in a
quaint and charming photoplay,
"Hulda From Holland" Mary Pick
ford has been starred in many diff
ferent nationalities, but her interpre-
tation of the little dutch girl in
"Hulda From Holland" has never
been surpassed for both humor and
pathos. One minute it will make you
cry, the next laugh. The picture
ranks as one of Mary Pickford's best
contributions to motion picture hui
NOR. Two shows will be given each
evening. The first beginning at 7:15
and the second at 8:45 p. m. Prof.
Fielder will play the pipe organ.

of the amendment by the required
thirty-six state legislatures.
Later, December 10, by vote of AZ to
8 the senate that afternoon adopted
the resolution as passed by the house.
President Wilson issued a procla-
nation reducing the alcoholic con-
tents of beer brewed after January
LIST, 1918. California is very prac-
tically showing its patriotism by the
vigorous manner in which it is deal
ing with the liquor traffic to protect
the men who are in the training
camps.
A sequel to the 10000 dry votes in
Los Angeles is the action of the city
council on December 5 in voting to
have the law go into effect in the
harbor district, January 81, two
months earlier than the measure takes
effect in the remaining sections of
the city.
At dinner given by the Gridiron
Club at Washington at which Presi-
dent Wilson and noted men of the
nation were guests, no liquor was
served. This was the first dry din
ner in the thirty-three years of the
clubs existence. Nearly all the state
officials and party leaders lined up
for prohibition in the recent New
Mexico campaign. Hellelujahs were
being shouted by women all over the

In the army the sign of service,
but not of servility, is the military
salute. 1t has come to its present
form from the days when knighthood
was in flower and when only those of
gentle blood sprang to the contest to
uphold honor, to keep chivalry I'M
tainted and to carry to the ends of
the earth the message of hope. In
days of old knights, when they met
on the kings highroad, or were ready
for the tits, gave the sign of fra
ternity to their fellow knights by
lifting their visor that shielded their
eyes. By this sign they knew each
other. While the visor is needed no
more, its spirit dwells today in the
military salute as it is now practiced,
and by this sign soldiers give greet
ings to their comrades in arms.
"When given by a soldier, a salute
has its every element of lofty ideals,
but when given by civilian it is an
usurpation of soldiers preroga-
tive" says Col. C. H. Conrad, Jr.,
who commands the 360th Infantry at
Camp Travis. "a civilian is no more
entitled to give a military salute in J
salutation either when greeting a SOL |
der or when greeting a civilian than
one who is not mason is entitled to
display a Masonic emblem, or one
who isn't an Elk to wear the elk's
head on the lapel of his coat. Now
that thousands of young men have
been called to the colors and doubt |
less thousands more will in the future |
be called to the colors, there is a |
growing tendency on the part of ci-
villains to make use of the half baked |
salute when exchanging salu-
tations. When they do this, they are
violating custom that is dear to the
army. 1t possibly is due to ignor-
ance. It may be due to feeling of
isolation. But whatever is the cause,
a better understanding of the sacred
ness of the salute to soldiers should
lead to cessation of civilians indulg-
ing in such practices. "-Guymon
Herald.

state on account of the prohibition
victory. The sweeping vote in favor
of the cause exceeded the widest
hopes of the promoters of the cause.
In Ohio there has been a gain of al
most $4,000 votes for the prohibition
cause in the last two years. Ohio

An Oklahoma barber has gone his
craft one better. He has put high
grade Victrola in his shop, which
plays, sings or speaks while the vic
tins are being shaved, using the best
of modern records. He says that the
men rather like pleasant music dur
ing the operation, for even when the
shaving does not hurt bit man al
ways feels worse about it if he en-
dures the process in utter silence.
Well, well-how times do change!
Not many years ago, while you sat
in the barber chair, you were forcibly
RECALLED with all the latest small-talk
about prize fighters, race horses, base
ball heroes, hunting dogs, billiard
sharks, fancy women and scandal.
The barber who operated on you i'm
agined he could not earn his little
old dime unless he threw in all this
slush, whether you cared for it or
not. Nowadays barber shops are run
by high-thinking class of men.
They don't have to palaver a blue
streak while they push the stickers
back in your face. But this idea of
having pleasant music to listen to
during the work strikes US as sensibly
as that of having music at banquet.

For long time the labor leaders
discountenanced the boy scouts. They
believed it was fostering the military |
spirit. Now this ban has been lifted.
The working men are to be urged to

encountered considerable opposition
all over the country because it was
believed they were inspired to kill,
but they have indicated themselves.

In Canada there has been worked
out plan to give to the returned
soldiers plot of ground and govern
ment aid in getting re-started in life.
1t is fact that the war has wrecked
thousands of careers and the men
who come home must meet conditions
entirely changed. The man in this
strenuous age who gets out of step
has hard time getting back. The
world is so busy, the work so import
ant, that the minute one man steps
out for any cause his place is filled.
The returned soldiers cannot start
again where they left off. The place
vacated has been filled, other work
ers are making their own careers.
DR.. Caver is working out plan for
the returned American soldiers.
There is an appreciation of the fact
that the men who stepped out of the
working ranks into the army cannot
step back again. They cannot be left
to find their own places in the world,
they must be looked after and helped.

from whatever cause to see that the
