Over For More Study

The Blue Sky bill. which has already
passed the House and is now in the
Committee on Corporations in the Sem
ate, is no nearer solution to-day than
1t was two weeks ago when the Senate
committee granted its first hearing on
the measure. At that time opponents of
the measure came here and asked that
they be given more time to study it and
prepare amendments which would make
1t workable. Another hearing was fixed
for to-day and again the opponents of
the measure explained that the prob
lem is such a big one that considerable
more time is needed to work out amend
ments which would make it a feasible
mea sure.
Thomas NJ Gates and Albert E. Tur-
ner. Philadelphia, and Major David A.
Reed. of Pittsburgh. came here to-day
to oppose the bill in its present form.
The purposes of the bill are to drive
illegitimate sellers of stocks, bonds and
securities from the State and also to
put an end to the sale of bogus Sc
curities and stocks in Pennsylvania.

Paris, June 5.-The Y. NJ. c. A. is
extending its activities to encompass
HAe operations of the American Ex-
peditionary Forces in proposed
Grge embarkation camp in Antwerp
and to care for about 500 soldiers,
who are to be stationed in Rotter-
aam on special assignment.
my officials anticipate that Ant
werp will soon become a center for
100000 American troops, as a new
embarkation camp is to be estab-
lished there and the Y. NJ. c. A. is
preparing to set up its work there.
which will probably include con-
struction of ten huts.
A site for the proposed army camp
has been selected about six miles
from Antwerp and it is said that the
difficulties in bringing building ma
terials may necessitate making it a
tent affair. All of the materials for
the Y. NJ. c. A. hut at Antwerp.
which by the way, was built at Rot
terdam, were brought from Eng
land. 1t was completed in four days.
The newest Y. NJ. c. A. hut in the
newest established post of the Amer
lean EXpeditionary Forces, at Rot
terdam, has been put in operation
and is in charge of a woman, Miss
Mary Hanna, of Pittsburgh. Pa.
About 500 soldiers will be constant
ly on duty there, the station being
for forwarding freight down the
Rhine to the Army of Occupation
at Coblenz.
Mrs. John w. Ganett. wife of the
American minister at the Hague.
has been very much interested in
the construction and operation of
the first and only American hut in
Holland and wished to an American
woman in charge. Miss Hanna is
especially fitted for her work. She
is graduate of Drexel Institute and
has been an Instructor in the Car
negic lstitute of Technology.

A REALISTIC FILM.

The homely story of 'Old Mat" and
Young Matt" Sammy Lane and the
gentle Shepherd of the Hills, and all
the big hearted mountain folk, who
were so realistically portrayed in
Harold Bell Wright's novel, The
Shepherd of the Hills" live again in
the perturbation, which has been
made by the author of his widely
read book.
In filming this work Mr.. Wright
has had wealth OF ricn material
from which to make his picture and
the result has been work of art in
the field of motion pictures. A sim
pie love story of typically American,
the scenes are set in the Ozark noun
tains of Missouri, TO which comes the
world weary man who finds there
a deep sorrow left by his long lost
son. In his endeavor TO atone for his
sons actions he gains the title of
The Shepherd of the Hills" The
scenic background for this simple
story presents a series of pictures
dazzling in their grandeur and de-
ptcting faithfully their marvellous
beauty of the hills of southwestern
Missouri.
This super feature will be shown for
one day only at Empress Theatre, in
Meridian, Wednesday, Dec. 3. Three
shows daily. pm; pm; 9.15 pm.

DEFENDANTS WIN OUT in
McKAIG LIBEL SUIT.

Much interest has been attracted 10
the district court room at Boise the
past few days to the trial of Ray
McKaig VS. Frank II. Gooding ard the
Boise Statesman, for $4,000 dam
ages for alleged slanderous adver-
tisements published in the campaign
of 1918. These advertisements, pub
lished by Frank Gooding. charged
that McKaig was socialist ana SYM
pathizer with the notorious Kate
.O'Hare when the latter was on trial
in Dakota for treason.
The jury evidently thought there
is reason to doubt the loyalty or
McKaig as a verdict was found for
signed by 10 of the IL jurymen, one
of the persons signing being a mem
ber of the non-partizan league. H. b.
Powers. OF Meridian, was foreman of
the jury, which was composed mainly
of farmers.
Probably the most sensational evil
dence given at the trial was to the eff
feet that men of admitted socialist1c
tendencies and sympathizers with the
l. w. w. and Bolshevik, were paid
non-partizan league organizers in
1917 and 1918 in Idaho, and worked
under the direction of Ray McKaIg.
Asked as to why a want ad was in
serted in the Appeal to Reason" the
socilist paper, to secure organizers,
the reply was that 'one medium was
as good as another"
