Worth While To Be An Elk

Brother Harry A. Dalbow is good
enough authority for anybody OF al
most any subject. He says (and says
it without any ~reservations) that any
man who travels about from one place
to another and who is not an Elk is a
very foolish man, as he misses the
good fellowship and hospitality of the
best men in every community where
there is an Elk lodge, and there are
very few places in the United States
with over 5000 population where n
does not exist. He has Travelled from
coast to coast and Elks everywhere
have always received him with open
arms. Harry is a real booster for the
Elks.

Cherley Smith, in his frequent
studies of human nature, says there
are some characters he utterly fails
to understand. "Now, there's Bill
POWELL" says Charley. "He's a quiet,
i~noffensive cuss, always going along
the lines of least resistance. But my
experience with him is that he is al
ways on hand just at the right time
and is sure to be in at the finish. That
has been my experience with him
several times and 1 can't figure it
out" Why, Charley, you should
understand that Bill knows the psy-

around.

DISTILLERS SEE NEW HOPE

Washington, Jan. 17-The Treas
ury Department may, within a few
days, ask Congress to enact legisla-
ton under which the entire supply of
whisky in bonded warehouses, esti-
mated at 6O,O0o,OGo, gallons, will be
taken over by the Government, part
of it to be given to public health
hospitals and part set aside for sale
to private hospitals. It is estimated
that within few years the entire
supply thus would be absorbed.
The big question Of what to do
with the 100000 gallons, probably
half Of which is in Kentucky bonded
warehouses, was discussed here at a
conference of prominent distilllers.
1t was agreed that it would require
an army of men to guard liquor
stocks from theft, which was regard
ed as wholly inlracticable. If the
government takes over the liquor it
will condemn it and will pay what
ever price may be fixed by Congress
