Coffee Instead of Booze

If the dope of Mir. Manuel Gorzyl is correct coffee will supplant booze and coffee houses will stand where the wet drinks once held forth. A1r. Gorzyl. who by the way is from Porto Rico. bases his predictions upon what al ready has happened in his own coun. try. which recently went dry. From statistics, he says Porto Ricans are drinking To per cent more coffee now than before prohibition went into eff feet. There is no demand for the so- called soft drinks" declared Mir. Cor zyl. and there will be no increased demand for such drinks in your own country. Coffee will become the ia. vorite drlnk between meals as 1t is low at meals.

Novel Use for a PerIsoope.

Turning the sword into a plowshare is figure of speech but using the periscope 10 direct the players in pantomime has actually come to pass. This peaceful adaptation of the means whereby the submarine commander has watched the ocean. to the purposes of a musical director watching a stage, took place at the first performance of a pantomime. in New York. The com poser of the music had come from Chicago to direct the orchestra, and found his seat in the orchestra pit so far below the stage level that only a neck like that of Alice in Wonderland. after she had eaten the mushroom. would have let him look over the foot lights. So the management installed q periscope. It was probably some lit- tie time before the whole audience had guessed what the thing was. and that musical director down below was periscoping the players on the stage while he bent time for his orchestra.

A Rare Bird.

The white-headed stork. one of the most interesting and valuable posses sions of the London Geological society. is dead. It was a native of the UP per or White Nile. and so far as $ known the only living specimen ol this remarkable bird in Europe. as long ago as 1860 the then British vice consul at Khartoum-M PetherieS' himself an indefatigable naturalist brought two specimens to London. ana these were the first ever seen atse in Britain. After an interval of man' years the present sirdar--Sir Regiha'u Wingate-presented to the society ''e specimen which has just died an' which was familiar object in the " cinity of his palace at Khartoum' S's itors to the garden in Regents pa's will recall the rather melancho9 looking bird in the aviary adJol'i''s fhe southern entrance.

respect, and there the merchants hung such things as cords, nets and girdles out into the street, and often sat in front of their shops.
 The Suk el Bizar (grain market) is a broader street, and lighter, since it is not vaulted in, but, as many more people congregated there, progress was as difficult as in the butchers street. This was the busy part; in every other region of the Moslem quarter hardly a soul was to be seen at some hours of the day, except in Harat Bab epAmud (the street of the Damascus Gate), and Harat Bab Sitti Miriam (street or Our Lady Mary's Gate), where grocers did an active trade, the fellahin from the eastern country buying necessaries there just before leaving the town. 4 conventional thin veil or net was dropped over the shop entrance, and projecting baskets of rice, nuts, lentils, etc, from IL a. m. to 1. D. m., signify ing that the owner was away, pre- sumably at prayers in the adjacent Haram. The protection was more real than any police measures could have secured.
 In the Crowded Grain Market. Tn the Suk el Bizar the throng was sometimes so great that it was impos- sible to advance step; especially was this the case when a long string of carnels loaded with grain made it's way to the wheat bazaar, the small square underneath vault which gives the street it's name. Wheat and barley, lentils and dhurra, or maize, are here l poured on big heaps and sold to the public. The official appointed to meas ure out the grain in the Tabbeh (about 1 eight rotls) or Sa' (half Tabbeh) is | quite a serious and important person | age. Filling his measure, he will begin | by announcing Allahu Ahad God is | One), and continues saying this till l the first tabbeh is in the sack. Two" 1 three" he says at every measure, till he comes to seven, when he says same ha (pardon), instead of saba (seven). | The number seven, being that of the princes of the Jam (genis), must not be named while handling grain for fear tre Jam should carry off the blessing. Tamanieh (eight), va Rabb, el Amaneh 1 Q4ord, give me honestly.
 The crowd is exasperating at times. though comical incidents occur occa- sionally. As I slowly pushed my way forward one day, stopping to avoid huge sacks, European snob, anxious to escape being crushed, stood in Q corner, wearing a new straw hat. Hats are, as rule, disliked by orientals. The European, in derision, is often called abu 1-baranit Gather of hats). A durneytah (hat) attracts unpleant no- l tice in a crowd. A camel, waiting to pass, looked round casually, put out his huge lips, seized the strange straw basket, and in one bite ate half the hat, to the distress of Mir. Snob and tho delight of the by-standers.
 The north and northeast portion as far as the Temple Area was most ex- clusively Moslem. Like the butchers and the spicers, the gold and silver smiths, the blacksmiths and the cop i persmiths and other workers had their separate streets, the last named near the dyers; but many began to feel the influence of new period and left their old quarters, bidding farewell to the ancient oriental tradition.

NapoIeon's Drill Book.

Some curious finds are being made by French inhabitants returning to the lands recently wrested from the grasp of the enemy. In the library of a ruined chateau was found a note book bearing on it's title page the signature Napoleon Bonaparte." The book was dated at the time when he was corporal, and was filled with notes referring to foot drill.

NARROW AND TIMID
Editor Evening Star:

Editor Evening Star:
AS the Star and Mayor Chace are
so much concerned about the cutouts
on Fort King and have received con-
gratulations from Mr.. Chambliss,
would suggest, as the Star is going e.
move, that Main street be the next in
order. A Citizen.
If "a Citizen" wasn't narrow
minded he wouldn't have written the
foregoing, and if he wasn't timid b.
would have signed his name.
Mayor Chace did not mention Fort
King avenue. The ordinance applies
to the entire city and he said it should
be enforced in the city.
"a Citizen" strives to create tn
opinion that the Star and MayoE
Chace object to the cutouts because
both the paper and mayor live on
Fort King. God have mercy on "a
Citizens" poor, little narrow soul. He
judges others by himself.
The Star mentioned Fort King par
ticularly because nine-tenths of the
trouble occurred on Fort King. Any
body but a darn fool knows Main
street is not suitable for a "speed-
way"
The cutouts have never annoyed the
i fMtar, and it made its kick because q
nNAnb1m of citizens living on that
strees Sppealed to it to do so. Neither
did they annoy Mayor Chace, as his
home isNar down the street, and cut.
outs were seldom opened until the
cars were well past his house.
We are sorry for. people, ike "A
Citizen" They measure other peo.
pies corn in their half bushels, anC
consequently think no newspaper mol
puDlic man can object to an abuse un.
less il or he has a selfish motive.

AMERICAN LEGION
MEETS NEXT WEEK
Permanent Officers of the Organiza-
tiOn Will be Elected for
the Year

Marion County Post of the Amer
lean Legion will meet in regular ses-
sion Thursday afternoon, August z,
at 2 o'clock. AT this meeting the per-
manent officers of the organization
for the year will be elected, and the
hope Is that every service man in the
county will be present at the meeting
to have a voice in the election. The
officers to be elected are: Post COM
mander, vice commander, adjutant,
finance officer, historian, chaplain and
sergeant-at-arms. Notices of the
meeting will be sent out, but the
temporary officers have not been able
to get a complete list of the men in
the county who have returned home.
Those who get the notices are re-
quested to pass the word on to others,
and to bring to the meeting all the
men they know.
In electing the officers of the post.
the policy of the national convention
and the state convention will be fol-
lowed. At least sixty per cent of all
officers will be enlisted men, and an
effort will be made to have every
branch of the service represented
among the officers. In the national
organization the chairman was a
colonel in the service, the first vice
chairman a sergeant, the second vice
chairman a buck private and secre-
tary a ieutenant-colonel. There is no
rank in the American Legion, and the
nation and state conventions have
developed a wonderful spirit.
The first issue of the american
Legion Weekly in speaking of the
spirit of the legion, says:
"The legion itself is a spontaneous
expression of purpose by those mill
ions of Americans who helped crush
autocracy. Out of their common ex-
periences through the dark months of
the war has grown a comradeship
and a patriotism which is vitalized by
thei reorganization into this single
concrete force which will stand al
ways as barrier against the forces
of greed, ignorance and chaos. The
American Legion is the epitome of
that Americanism for which it stands.
Its voice is the majority voice of its
members; its will the will of the
many. Spontaneous in inception, it
has been democratic in it's develop
ment. There are no titles recorded on
its rolls. 1t is free of rank, o fcaste
and partisanship. If it seeks in a
full measure to serve those who were
in service, it seeks in fuller measure
to serve America"
