President Will Exercise
Power After DemobiIizing

Wartime prohibition must take its
course-for awhile.
President Wilson Saturday night,
in message to Secretary Tumulty,
declared that until rehabilitation is
terminated his power to act in lifting
the ban on intoxicants cannot be ex-
ercised, since Congress failed to pass
necessary legislation.
The President added that when de-
mobilization is terminated his power
to act twill be exercised"
The President disclosed in his
message that Attorney General Pal
mer had advised him he did not have
the legal power to lift the ban on
liquor, with which ruling the Presi-
dent agreed.
The law, the President said, pro-
vides the ban shall be lifted, not
with the signing of peace, but with
the termination of the demobiliza-
ton Of troops. His advices from the
War Department, he added, are that
there are still 100000 men in SER
vice under the emergency call, and
since Congress failed to repeal the
law insofar as it applies to wines and
beers, the President finds it ''impos-
sible to act" at this time or here
after until rehabilitation is terni-
mated. 1t is estimated demobiliza-
ton will be complete by September
l, at the latest.

down by a beaver. A single beaver
generally, If not always, amputates
the tree, and when 1t comes down
the whole family fall to and have a
frolic with the bark and branches.
A big beaver will bring down a fair
sized sapling, say, three inches
through, in about two minutes, and
a large tree in about an hour.
As compared with the otter or
mink, the beaver is a very slow
swimmer. His front legs hang by
his side, and he uses only is
webbed hind feet for purposes of
swimming. 1t is easy to capture
one in a canoe if you can find him
in shallow water. He is a most de-
termined fighter, but clumsy and
easy to handle. If he could get hold
of you with his teeth lie would al
most take a leg off, SO you need to
watch him sharply. The way to
seize him is by the tail.
The ability of a beaver to remain
under water for a long time Is
really not so strange a problem as
it looks. When a lake or pond IS
frozen over a beaver will come to
the under surface OF the ice and
expcl breath. so that it forms a
wide fiat bubble. The air coming
in contact with the ice and water
is purified. and the beaver breathes
it again. This operation he can re-
peat several times. The otter and
muskrat do the same thing.

OU remember in the last story
v how the Good Gray Horse
woke up Puss Junior just as
the wicked wolf asssneak-
Ing through the trees. Well, as
soon as Puss had drawn his sword
he said to his former steed, "Ah,
you have done me a good turn, my
four-footed friend. l Bee the wolf
yonder, but he dares not come near
for fear I will thrust my sword
through him!"
This was the case, for the wolf
kept at a distance and made no
move to come nearer them. We'll,
my dear little master" cried the
Good Gray Horse, III you will get

So Puss Junior jumped on his
back and rode off. but the wicked
wolf did not follow, for he was

Junior knocked loudly on the pos
tern gate with the hilt Of his sword
and presently a retainer appeared
and inquired what they wished.
My good man." said Puss Junior,

Horse and I. and as the day is far
spent and the night is at hand, We
seek nights lodging"
Come in and welcome" said the
retainer, for my master never
turns away a traveller, although
thus far we have never been hon

swung wide the great gates and
Puss Junior. on his Good Gray
Horse, rode proudly in with his
trusty sword Grasped in his right
paw.
Then several men in waiting
came forward and led his steed to
the royal stables. while others es-
corted Puss into the castle. Then,
of a sudden, several voices began
singing this song:
Old King Coal
Is a merry old soul,
And merry old soul Is he;
He burns in the CRATE
From early till late,
And orakles away merriiy.
He weighs quite a ton,
You can poke him in fun
And he'll laugh and burn brightly
in glec.
But, my! how he'll pout
If you let him go out
What a chilly old Cinder he'll be:
And just as the song ended in
came King Coal and King Ctnder
and bowed to Puss Junior. They
were brothers, you know. but as
different as could be. King Coal
was fat and jolly, but King Cinder
was gray and thin and never
smiled. Oh never, rot even a
snicker when the Court Jester made
a joke or told u funny story. He
was always SO put out at every
thing.
Welcome, Sir Cat" cried King
Coal, come amuse US with a taie
OF your travels" So Puss Junior
sat down and began telling a story
which you shall hear tomorrow.

it to you now.

while. Honora changed her own
gown and went down to dinner
with the dreary certainty that she
would spend a lonely evening.

were gone, and she chatted persist
