Beware of the Homemade Product

THE internal revenue bureau has given fair
warning against what may seem to be
the innocent brewing OF beer or the family
distillation Of spirits by homemade processes
after the country has gone dry This govern
mental agency wants it understood that it is
not necessary for the fireside brewer or dis
tiler to do commercial business with his
product in order to become violator of the
law. The violation is there, to whatever use
the spirits may be put
This is not exactly a new condition of
course. 1t is but further enforcement OF
OLD statutes which made every unlicensed
brewer or distiller an illicit producer of wet
goods But the internal revenue bureau an
uclpates some confusion in the minds Of the
people as to their right to make their own
ardent beverages after the country goes upon
a prohibition basis on July l.
The mere possession Of an UNREGISTERED
oistillery, whether it be a. copper kettle with
cap and worm" improvised, or a regular
outht. Is prima facie evidence of crime, in
the view Of the Treasury Department. Not
only that, but the presence of fermented or
lermentng mash" on the premises OF a
citizen, even though he does not yapor;ze or
condense the spirit, is violation of the law
as the internal revenue officials interpret the
VII! Oh Congress. The only safe way to avoid
possible legal complications, therefore, IS to
nave nothing whatever to do with brewing
or distillation. directly or indirectly, actually
or theoretically.

1.-THE KIDS CLEVER"
HAS PLOT AS CLEVER
AS PLAYERS LINES

The chief plot of The Kids Clever
emphatically is not between the Eiks
lodge and the business office at the
Crystal theater Joe Scott can prove
that the show is equipped with a reg
u}ar plot-far more dramatic action,
in fact, than the average road show
possesses.
In the first place there is miss
ing heiress. n French count and a
bankrupt lover There is the eternal
triangle already. But add to these a
Quaker maid who is somewhat shy
and yet knows how to talk, act and
sing love when the occasion demands.
The Quaker maid has an aunt and the
bankrupt lover has an uncle. The
aunt and uncle are matrimonially in
clined There's a defective detective
with his Doctor Watson and a couple
of vivacious young girls named Patsy
and Bunny Mix them all up together
and ii certainly takes a good plot to
straighten out the tangle.
Scotti's plot is as clever as his lines
his music and his dances. The first
act starts the ball rolling nicely, and
it rolls rapidly all through the second.
About the time the inevitable happens
somebody interferes and it doesn't.
Scott has adopted the wellworn mot
to: Make EN- laugh, make EN- cry
make 'em wait"
The ticket sale is being vigorously
pushed and the Elks are, determined
that the Crystal theater shall be filled
