I"It Is always noon time somewhere
And across the awakening continent
From shore to shore
Our prayers are rising evermore.
The Executive Committee of the
local Women's Christian Temperance
Union met at the Presbyterian manse
Tuesday TO perfect plans for the
county and state convention which
are to be held in Ashland this fall.
These are going to be blessed gather
ings of consecrated women who dare
great things in the name OF the
Lord and who believe that Right
eousness exalteth a nation, but sin
is a reproach to any people" Let
us give them a royal welcome.
Many people think that with State
and National Prohibition won, the
work of Temperance's forces is fin
ished. Not so. If 1t is good for the
United States it i1 good for the
world and we are daring to fling
our banner out THE World Dry in
1926" There is more than one way
to make Democracy safe for the
world, and it will take more than
one force, more than one line OF
work. Missionaries of the Cross,
together with the w. c. T. U. forces
of fifty different nations are stead
lily doing their bit to this grand end.
Does 1t mean anything to you?
II is refreshing to have chance
to heartily endorse our Congress, but
once in while they do rise gradual
by to the occasion. The House vote
on the Enforcement Code was the
true expression of opinion Of 100,-
10000 people.

a few,

Through this testimony counsel
sought to bring out that the man

their adopted country and to respect

anarchist and that man who sought
every possible method to instill love
for the Stars and Stripes in the
hearts of those who come to 1t from

what Mr.. Ford had done since 1916

the newspaper stigmatized the mann.

He did not deny that Mr.. Fcrd had
done an immense and valuable work

BASKET TRICK"
 EXPLAINED

The story associated with the rope trick and the mutilated boy and the subsequent reunion of the body is sheer nonsense and what is more the incident never even occurred as re- lated. The "feat" as a matter of fact, is on a par with the Indian basket trick, in the performance of which a boy is placed in a basket and duly dispatched by sword passed through it, to reappear a few minutes later, alive and well, descending an adjacent tree.
 On one occasion, to test my theory of the manner of the tricks perform ance, unseen by the fakir, placed a private mark on the back of the boy before he was put into the basket. Then came the sword thrust, the boys squeal of agony and the flow of blood 'on the ground. The basket when un- corded and opened showed that its occupant had disappeared. Then from the tree came the living boy. examined his back; the mark was ab- sent. He was just another boy; the original victim, with my mark upon him, remaining in the basket, which had false bottom. The blood stain ing the earth came from bladder filled with bullock's blood which had been placed between the boys legs and through which the penetrating sword had been guided.
 I went to India, as 1 have said, to investigate and to annex, if possible, a bona fide wonder-working fakir, as- tral form or other superman in the occult line in order to convince an incredulous occident of the mystic wonders of the east. And I came away disillusioned and empty handed

"TRUE BLUE AMERICAN" Arizona Man Presents Check of $1 ,OO0 to Belgian Soldiers Here.

MT. Bell was reticent when asked about his little benefaction. All that he would vouchsafe was that he was true blue American" and that he couldn't do enough in this world for the Belgian soldiers. In reply to a di- rect question he finally admitted that he had relations in the American army -"so many I can't keep track of them"
 All day long the Belgian soldiers bought against that $1,OOO check and Tuesday night Miss Haglund said she couldn't tell how much of dent they had made in it.
 The soldiers wrote little letter to MT. Bell, part in English and part in French, and full of gratitude. They all signed it.
 "I wouldn't part with that letter for $10,000," said MT. Bell"
 c. B. Bell, referred to in the above article, is the president of the Mid dle Golconda Mines company, which recently disposed of it's holdings in Todd Basin to the Highlands Mining company. The deal engineered by MT. Bell contemplates the expenditure of half million dollars in purchase money and development. MT. Bell was called east on the deal and has

EXILED KAISER TO SUE
HIS MOVIE "lMITATOR''

BERLIN. Tuesday, October 81 (by
the Associated Press).-Former EN-
peror William has commissioned Herr
siebert, an attorney of Berlin, to in
stitute suit against the actor. Ferdi-
nand Bonn. who prepared what are
known as the kaiser films" which
were barred in Berlin. but were per-
mitted to be exhibited elsewhere. The
ex-emperor charges insult and the
misuse Of his portrait and asks for
the suppression of the films.
The Bonn films referred to in the
foregoing were to have been produced
in Berlin October 10. but were sup
pressed by government order on that
day. The title of the picture was an
nounced as "Wilhelm's Good Fortune
and Bad Finish" The government
announcement said the suppression
grew out of a desire to prevent the
films being made a cause for political
combats at a time when party feeling
already was at high pitch.
