Liquor Law Violations and the Sheriff

The receipt of an anonymous letter by Sheriff
Carr prompted an investigation of alleged viola
tons of the liquor laws in Cambridge City
Neither the sheriff nor the prosecutor could find
facts to substantiate the somewhat sensational
charges in the communication written by per-
son who did not have the manhood to sign his
name to the letter.
Fair minded citizens will agree with the au-
thorities that no good can come from hearsay
and rumors about alleged illicit sales of liquor in
Richmond and other towns of the county. If
citizen believes he has discovered the trail of
blind tiger or suspects that man is boOtlegging,
he has only one course to pursue, namely, to in
form the police or the sheriff. Neither he nor
the community is benefited by wild claims Of
disorderly conditions. The only way to stamp
out nuisance is to bring information about it
to the authorities.
Gossip is malicious. 1t is doubly so when the
integrity of the sheriff. the prosecutor and the
police department is involved They are the
sworn officers of the law 1t is their duty to ar
rest and prosecute violators of the law But it
is also the duty of an honorable citizen to report
violations if he knows they exist. No citizen can
escape that obligation by saying "It's not my
duty to catch bootleggers." The citizen who fails
to report violations and to substantiate them with
evidence is in an awkward position. He is con-
niving with the violators.
Citizens have no right to condemn the au-
thorities on the basis of mere rumors that the
liquor law is being violated. If citizen wants
to be consistent let him carry little invest-
cation of his to if the reports are facts or
runors.

A recent health survey, made by the

Not Always Happy.

1t is customary but 1 think it is a
mistake, to speak of happy" child
hood. Children are often Overanxious
and acutely sensitive. Man ought to
be man and master of his fate; but
children are at the mercy of those
around them. Mr.. Rarey, the great
horse-tamer, has told US that he has
known an angry word to raise the
pulse of horse ten beats in a minute.

Quaint Island.

Elmley, one of England's oldest
little islands, though only 48 miles
from London, is a parish where roads,
shops, lamps, telephones, motor cars,
public houses and postoffices are un-
known. The island, which lies of
the Isle of Sheppey, Kent, has an
area of about 1000 acres, and is the
property of Oxford university. The
inhabitants are mostly shepherds of
large flocks of sheep. The oldest man
of the village is in his SEVENTEEN year.
He has yet to see motor car. The
school and church are the two chief
landmarks on the island. The rea-
son they were built in such a sparsely
populated spot is that in winter it
is almost impossible to leave the
island, as the ferry which runs to and
from the island is dangerous.
A novel method of obtaining the
services Of the ferryman, who lives
opposite to the island, is the open
ing of the white door of hut facing
the shore. At night a lighted candle
held aloft serves the purpose of the
open door.

Vibrations Make Sound.

Anything stretched is likely to be
thrown into vibration, or made to
tremble, by the force of the air blow
ing against it. If it vibrates so fast
as to produce the air waves that our
ear can hear, then that is what we
call sound. This is what happens to
the telegraph wires when they hum !;
and if we put our hand on the tele-
graph pole we shall feel that the wires
vibrate strongly enough to set the
whole pole to trembling, too. When
the air is quite still you will not hear
the telegraph lines humming.

Game i'm Mexico,

Mexico cannot be said to offer a
field for hunters of big game. and the
term, "a sportsman's paradise" which
is sometimes applied to it, is an ex-
aggeratiOn. Among animals may be
enumerated the peccaries or javelines,
deer, rabbits, hares. The reptiles in
clude alligatOrs, turtles and iguanas.
