Women's Dress Is
Condened by Club

Guersney, Wyo., Dec, IS. - The
Wyoming w. C. T. U. is on record
with sweeping condemnation of
present-day dress for women.
Disapproval of modern styles il
women's clothing was expressed ia
resolutions adopted at the twenty
seventh annual state convention OF
the organization held here.
The short skirts, silk stockings
and diaphonous gown were declar-
ed to be Immoral influences" and
recommendation was made for
uniform dresses for high school
girls.
The cigarette habit was scored
in another resolution and the or
ganization pledged its support to
the better enforcement of the 18th
amendment.
Boys and girls in both grade and
high schools, one resolution set
forth, should have deans to in
struct, advise, and correct their
morals and dress.
1t was also emphasized that the
chaperones at all high school social
affairs were absolutely essential.

National Theater
Will Be Completed

Mexico City. Mex, Dec. 2O-The
unfinished National theater, which
has been a useless pile of marble
in the heart of Mexico City for ten
years, is to be completed through
the efforts of a group of wealthy
residents Of the capital. They have
agreed to lend the government TO-
100000 pesos so that the work OF
completing the structure can be
resumed at once.
The National theater was started
while General Porfirio Diaz was
president. When he was driven
from Mexico, work on the build
ing was stopped. and it was half
hidden behind an unsightly wood
en- fence. This fence has been torn
down by order of the new govern
ment, making great improve
ment in the appearance of the
district in which the theater is sit
uated. Although the structure is
unfinished. it Is near enough to
completion to be imposing. Even
as 1t is, 1t is one of the chief sights
of the city

Gentleman Role
Highly Pleasing
to Villa, Report
BY David NJ. Church.

MutdmOfdS, McAlCO, DeC' GV'
Pancho Villa is perfectly satisfied
to spend the rest of his life as
Francisco villa. gentleman farm
err" according to Elias l.. Torres,
the Mexican leader who opened the
negotiations with Villa for his sur
render.
Villa is living the quiet and
peaceful life of an agriculturist on
his big estate at Canutillo, Durango
according to Torres, and the former
bandit is satisfied that he has re-
tired for the good of his country
men.
The big estate which Villa has
taken over as one of the gifts be-
slowed upon him by the Mexican
government at his surrender offers
wonderful chance for the man
who formerly destroyed to recon.
.struct, according to Torres. The es-
tate is partially in ruins, and al.
though at one time it was hand
some, its little houses and colonies
have become dilipidated and the
soil has been too long untitled.
In the rebuilding of this farm of
more than 1000 acres, Villa is now
displaying the greatest interest. He
is actually working with his own
hands to rebuild and is directing
the efforts of those who have set
tied with him in an effort to res
tore Canutillo and to make it one of
the most modern farms in all Mexi-
co.
Villa has a ready supply of mon
ey and is able to accomplish much
which his poorer neighbors cannot
do. He is reported by Torres to be
doing much for his neighbors and
to be assuming much the attitude
of philanthropist.
Villa still retains some Of the
members of the staff of his bandit
army, and like all true gentlemen
farmers has his own private sec
retary.
1t is not easy for Villa to give ur
many of his bandit customs and he
still packs a huge six shooter and
rides the most peppery horses OBJ
tainable.
Even in his retirement Villa holds
warm place in the hearts of
many of his countrymen, and he is
regarded with the greatest respect.

Work or Starve Is
Ultimatum Served
on This Towns 'Boes

Johnstown, Pa, Dec. 2O.-"Work
or fight war slogan.
'Work or starve"- slogan of
Johnstown police department.
From a report submitted to city
council for expenditures in feeding
the prisoners in the city prison It
is apparent that no turkey. chick
en- or other highbrow food is serv-
ed the prisoners.
Take heSd and don't come to
Johnstown for "flop" and free
feed" Nothing doing.
William w. Campbell, superin-
tendent of accounts and finance,
submitted a report showing that
1928 meals had been served dur
ing the last month at an expendi-
ture of $1O9.06. This means that
a meal is served for fraction less
than six cents.
Breakfast consists of bread, mo-
lasses and coffee. Luncheon"
consists of same as breakfast Din
ner consists of more bread, more
molasses and more coffee. The
meals are served in three courses
bread, then molasses, then cot-
fee no cigarets or cigars.
1t can be easily seen that the
way of the present-day hobo or
"vag" is not the life it used to be.
But still it might be worse. Those
who stop to the city prison more
than one day and who are required
to work are given better meals.
Transients do not gain any consid-
Grafton at all in the way of these
meals de luxe and the mess sarg"
refuses to take any bribes.
