BOYS ENJOY Y. Nj, C. A.
SUMMER CAMP IN S. w.

Four hundred and fifteen boys of
the Southwestern States enjoyed sum-

retary of the tri-states. This shows
marked increase in the development
of the Boys Summer Camps for the
past three years as the total attend
ance of all Y camps in the summer of
1916 were eighty six. This is the
first season of the Affiliated Summer
Camps for boys, said Mr.. Demand, but
already Committees are at work to
double our effort and service the
netx season."
The report shows that nearly three
thousand dollars was spent in operat-
ing the camps, most of which was paid
by the boys, though in a great many
instances the camp fees of boys who
were not in position to pay them,
were advanced by business men and
other friends of the boys. The Y. in
vested $2800 in equipment this year
and several Associations are seriously
considering permanent camp sites.
The Associations conducting camps
were: Ell Paso, at Mountain Park, N.
M; Albuquerque, N. M; Tucson, Ari-
zona; Miami, Arizona at the Haunted
Canyon, and Phoenix, Arizona at the
Garden of Allah.
The camp features of this season
camps were, athletics, camp fires,
practical talks, Bible study, hikes, fish
ing, swimming, SNOWFALL fights in
the mountains, ,snipe hunting and all
other attractions that appeal to the
American boy.

THE SCENES" CHARM
ING PICTURE OF THEAT-
RICAL LIFE.

The inimitable Mary Pickford has
a delightful Characterization, that of
an actress in the Paramount drama
of theatrical life, "Behind the
Scenes" by Margaret Mayo, which
will be shown at the Nogales Theatre
tomorrow.
"Behind the Scenes" is an absorb
ing play that contrasts the drama of
life with the glamor of the stage. 1t
is human throughout and depicts the
struggle of little soubrette for the
atrical fame and her great sacrifice
for love just when success is within
reach.
The humorous elements and serious
episodes of the drama are faithfully
interpreted by Miss Pickford and
punctuated with her delightful and
original methods. When the stress
of the play reaches its crisis, when
the little actress, after her years of
struggle and poverty, is forced to
choose between love and success, the
star reaches unusual dramatic heights
and gives one of the best perform
ances of. her brilliant career.
Behind the Scenes" is a story of
stage life, sincere in it's depletion of
the miserable failures and the thrill
ing successes of a theatrical career.
And against this enhancing element
is balanced the overwhelming love of
man, triumphant in this case as it
has been throughout many other soul
conflicts.
Miss Pickford is supported by an
adequate cast, including James Kirk
wood, Lowell Sherman, Ida Water
man and Russell Bassett.

ATTACK ON M'KENTY
DENOUNCED BY BRADY

Harrisburg, June 24.-Representa
tive William J. Brady, of Philadelphia
expressed indignation over the charges
against Warden McKenty. of the Fast
ern Penitentiary. Mr.. Brady issued
the following formal statement:
''The reported investigation of the
Eastern State Penitentiary is certainly
unnecessary. since there is absolutely nc
doubt that the penitentiary is the best
conducted institution of its kind in
America and has a warden in the per
son of Robert J. McKenty who has not
only the confidence of the prisoners
themselves but also the people of Penn
sylvania.
at is reported in the newspapers that
one of the board of prison inspectors,
an undertaken by the name of Dunlap,
is the instigator of the investigation
but it is hard to believe that Governor
Sproul would pay any attention to
statements of Dunlap. who was a poit-
ical appointee of the Brumbaugh ad-
ministration. The other members of the
board are men of the highest standing
who have in mind the best interests Of
the prison and the prisoners.
warden McKenty is a practical
man, who is an ardent exponent of the
square deal principle and a man held
in the highest esteem by his fellow cit
liens of Philadelphia. He has brought
the Eastern State Penitentiary to its
present high position by a consta mt
study of the inmates and of means to
improve them In character and ability"

LIQUOR MEN TO KEEP LAW
But Demand Unconditional Removal
Of Bans-1ooo Meet Here


Unconditional removal of all restric-
tions upon the sale of liquor was de-
manded by more than 1000 members of
the Philadelphia Retail Liquor Dealers
Association at a meeting in Lu Lu
Temple yesterday. Not even a con
cession in the passage of the bill intro
duced by Representative Ramsey, OF
Delaware county, which would legalize
the manufacture of 2% per cent beer,
was desirable, the liquor men decided.
By unanimous vote they decided to 60
to Harrisburg today to urge the bills
defeat. and, failing in this, to appeal
to Governor Sproul to veto the meas
ure.
AS a retaliatory measure, if their at
tempts to hold back the enforcement of
bone dry laws until January 16, 1920,
fail, they agreed unanimously to make
the city as dry as Death Valley and
show the direful results of prohibition.
The liquor men, it was learned. vowed
yesterday that they would not sell
drop illicitly.
It was decided also to send commit
tee to Washington to appeal to members
of Congress to remove the prohibition
on all liquors, once the peace treaty is
signed and the war officially over. The

DOPE SMUGGLED INTO
JAIL, WARDEN ADMITS
McKenty Says He Can't Stop
Practice Where So Many
Men Are Held
PREPARE FOR INQUIRY

Robert ]. McKenty, warden Of the
Eastern Penitentiary, made no effort
yesterday to deny that narcotics and
liquor had at times been smuggled
into the institution.
The smuggling of "dope" to inmates
OF the prison Is one of the questions to
De considered when Governor Sproul
starts his inquiry into the warden s
administration. 1t has been alleged
that the warden had failed to make
serious attempt to put a stop to
the practice.
Toward this. as we'll as all other
criticisms of his administration, the
warden assumes an attitude of out
spoken defiance.
49,. Let them bring on their investiga-
them come day or night I'll give
them all the help they want. but
Keep your eye on your Uncle Dudley,
and watch him ride his colt. If any
body starts anything I'll ride right
along and come out with a garrison
iinish. | Fl cure that what 7 do around
this place is right. and when I figure
l m right nobody can frighten me. There
are always people on the outside of
an institution who think they could run
Il H. better than the man in the saddle
fnat IS always to be looked for. But
nave no time to bother about such
peoPle. l nave fifteen hundred men
here to look after. and that is es much
as can handle at one time"
Inc warden maintains that Il is i'm
possible to put an absolute stop to the
smuggling of liquor and "dope' info
an institution which houses such n large
number of inmates.
SmupoIore, NT..l,
!, Narcotics have found their way into
me prison. he admitted. "but to say
that l allowed it is ridiculous. The
only thing l can do is to ston A., nrar
tice and punish the offenders when T
am able to catch them. There is hardly
an institution in the state that is Wis.
tied as much as this prison. Can 7 be
expected to search every person who
steps into the place? l cannot only tell
you that dope has been brought ip-I
can go you one better. I'll describe
how it has been done in couple of in :
stances. We caught cne woman trans
ferring dope to a nrisornr in the finger
OF rubber glove. The finger had been
filed with the stuff, the end securely
tied, and the whole thing hidden in a
can of fruit. Another woman was in
such a hurry to kiss her husband on
| another occasion when the guards back
was turned that we became suspicious
and discovered that she had transferred
small rubber pouch of narcotic from
her mouth to his. If any of the in :.
vestigators can show me a way to put
a stop to that sort of thing I'll be ready
and willing to act on their sugges- :
tions."
McKenty stoutly denied that "Reddy
Jake" Melincoff, liking of the Tender
loin," had made money during his con
finement in the prison. as has been al
legged by outside critics.
