Sergt. James j. Johnston arrived
home Sunday morning after having
received his discharge from the
Marines. He probably holds the
record not only as the first Prov
ers county volunteer, but as the
one having been away from home
the longest. 1t has been over 2S
months since he left Lamar to vol.
unteer as soon as the country de.
clared war, and he never had been
home since. He was with the ma.
rinCs who crossed the ocean In the
fall of 1917 and was in some of the
battles of that fighting Organiza-
tion. His host of Lamar friends
warmly welcomed him.-Lamar

WILL THE LITTLE TOWN
ALWAYS BE LITTLE?
Holly lis One OF 1900 Small Towns
in United States Having
Chance to Grow.

Cnance TO GROW.
The following news story sent out
in News Notes by The State Agri-
cultural COllegea Fort Ceilings
may apply in many ways to Holly
While Holly has many of the pub
lie cOnveniences. such as city
water and light plant, sewerage,
etc, yet it must be born in mind
that Holly is just about ready to
tear out of her swaddling clothes
and expand. Therefore the follow
ing story gives some food fO thought
on the part of citizens NV:
There are in the United States,
in round numbers, about 10000
small towns. Half of them have a
population of but 500, or less.
Every small town expects soon to
become populous. thriving city.
You live or have lived in one of
them. Not one of them is ready to
accept the fate of the small town,
with the idea of making the most
of the situation. 1t may be well
for the small towns to know the
following facts:
just few little towns grow to be
big and grand. just a very limited
number grow at all. Each year
there are number of new towns to
compete with the 10000 already in
existence. Then every year there
are numbr of towns that give up
tn ghost entirely. County seat
towns have q better chance to grow
than others, but even with them
tWO-thirds are nOn-prOgressive or
are actually declining. With other
small towns the probability of
growth is even less.
TherefOre-it is foolish for the
small town to wait until next year
to improve the schools; it is foolish
for the small town to wait until
there are more people before it
puts in sidewalks; it is foolhardy for
the little town to wait until next
year, when there will be more
probability for taxation to put in
a water system and sewer system
to safe guard the health of the
people; it shows poor Judgment
for the little town to wait a year or
two to plan for the social and re-
ligious life of it's people. The very
life of the little town lies in its do
ing now what it has been intend
ing to do tomorrow. This is the
way to success.
1t is no disgrace to live in little
town, but for the people of the lit
tie town, knowing the facts as
above stated, 1t is a disgrace to
waste year after year and year af-
ter year, before taking any steps to
make the living conditions of the
children, and all the rest Of the
folks, the best possible under the
conditions.

WILSON TO HAVE
 CHARGE OF BIG
 SHIP VANCOUVER

Newport, R. l.. July 1s.---Adn1iral Henry B. Wilson. commander in chief of the Atlantic fleet, will have the big ships manoeuver in the waters of Provincetown, Portland and Gardi- ner's Bay during most of the summer according to word received here This departure from the recent custom of using Narragansett Bay as the battle ship base has caused some disappoint- ment and a change of plans among officers families who had come to Newport in the expectation of spend ing the summer here.
 Some years ago when the late Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans commanded the North Atlantic fleet he abandoned Provincetown a base and sailed away with all his ships one sumrn CT day because the town authorities would not permit his men to pI1r; baseball on Sunday. From that time until the United States entered the war the battleships came annually to Narrasansett Bay.
 Rear Admiral Charles P Plunkett commander of the destroyer squadron No. 3, said today tho active and re- serve sQuadrons of destroyers of the Atlantic Fleet would be based on Newport for the present and would operate in Buzzards Bay, Block Island Sound and adjacent waters.

PROVED BIGGEST CATCH
 IN SOME TIME

With n list of aliases and a record of crime in other places, Robert Johnson, as he gave his name in this city, proved to be one of the biggest captures in police circles in this sec ton in many a day. Johnson, who says he Is twenty-six, was born a burglar and has been one ever since, receiving his first sentence to the FL mira reformatory when he was 10 years old.
 The modern Rallies was arrested by Detectives Simonds and Derrick at : Lang's pawnshop.T where he sold siI- verware stolen on July from the home of Louis Kutcher, wealthy brew CT. on Clinton avenue. He was then attempting to pawn silverware and tewelry. which he has since stolen fin New York and about which the po- lice are lacking information.
 Johnson. alias. in this instance Rick less, entered the Kutcher home and secured a number of articles of silver ware. The family was away. He then attempted to enter the home of Willis r. Hobbs at 59S Clinton ave rue but was scared away. The po- lice traced the goods stolen from the Rutscher home to Iang's pawnshop and there secured a description and in- formation of the burglar. Lang was warned and when Johnston returned in n few days he called the police.
 RobinSon's record shows that he was arrested for burglary in Brook lyn in 1903 and sentenced to Elmira refornatory; as James Rickles he was arrested in Brooklyn again in 1907 for grand larnccy and again sent to FL mira; fin 1908 as Harry Young he was arrested for burglary and sentenced fo ton years in Sing Sing: in 1916 as Rickles he was twice arrested in Brooklyn for burglary. but the evil tencc against him was not complete: later he was arrested in the same year fin Trenton on a burglary charge and sentenced to four years and S1 900 fine. He was recently released from prison in Trenton.
 Robinson appeared in the city court today for hearing and was held for the September term of the Criminal Superior court under bonds of s5 OOO

SAYS BENEDETTI COT CENSORSHIP
 BY FAv0RITISM

That Lieutenant George l.. Benedict tfs appointment as police censor of moving pictures and theatres was brought about through political influ- ence to remove him from Captain John O'Connell. of the Fourth pre- cinct.whom he disliked. was the charge made today by men on the inside of inc political movements in Bridgeport
 The transfer of BenedetI to head quarters to succeed Lieutenant Hall. who wus sent to the Fourth precinct, caused surprise when made by tho Board of Police Commissioners and 1t also develops that 1t has caused a con- siderble stir among the members of the police department who aHege fa- voritisrn was shown.
 It is further charged that Captain . .O'Connell. who has one of the best records of any man in the police de- partment. during his 23 years of ser- vice, was too exacting to suit Bene- detti and the latter disliked to meet tho requirements of his superior of- fccr and was able to get the transfer. The censor job is recognized as the most desirable in the department and it was not believed that Benedetti was entitled to it.

 The committee of the workers agreed to take the matter up with she officials of the Federation and try to arrange a meeting with the manu- lecturers.
 In reference to the demand for in creased pay 1t was agreed to have committees from the workers meet with heads of the different depart ments in the Warner factory this afternoon at 2 o'clock and go over the piece-work schedules on the diff ferent operations.

BRITISH MAY CLAEM DAMAGES FOR THEIR LOSSES

New York, July 16-Intimation breweries may seek through diplo- matic channels compensation due to losses resulting from the Prohibition Amendment was conveyed yesterday by William II. Hirst, counsel to the New York State Brewers Associa ton and the Society of Restaurateurs, in a statement explaining the treat ment Great Britain gave investors following the Licensing acts of 1904 and 1910. In the statement he said:
 AS a sovereign power the United States could not be made the defend ant in civil suit. but 1t is possible that the claim of the British subjects may be made through diplomatic channels.
 Tt is not surprising that the sub jects of Great Britain and other Euro pean countries cannot understand how their property may be summar- fly taken away from them without of ficial inquiry and without compensa- ton. Under the English system of government there is no such confisca- tory machinery as that which has been set up in the United States through the application of the so- called police power. This is so, not withstandinE that ParIiament is SUI preme and none of it's acts may be set aside when once enacted.
 Parliament. although omnipotent, has never been unmindful of the rights. privileges and immunities granted by Magma Charta, and conse- queutly has never undertaken to pass any prohibition or excise regulation without providing for a method to determine the necessity for the measure and compensation for the property affected and the good vii. involved.
 "The Licensing acts of 1904 and 1910 in Great Britain were based upon careful study of the situation. They permit the elimination of some sell ing places, but provide compensation in each instance. According to the official return of Licensing Statistics of 1913.' more than s44.OOo,OO0 has been paid in compensation in Great Britain since 1904.
