OF course, we know that trees have
circulation, not Of blood but of sap,
that goes upward in the spring and
downward in the autumn. 1t has
been demonstrated also that plants
have eyes. certain epidermal cells be-
ing really convex lenses filed with
clear sap that brings the light rays to
focus somewhere within the cells.
These little lenses are able TO form
images Just as the eyes of insects do.

i JAG JELLY CAN'T BE SO[D IN THIS STATE

Jelly jags are prohibited in Arizona Attorney General Wiley E.. Jones told the members of the w. C. T. U., in an address before the state convention held in Casa Grande. The attorney general read an article from a Cali fornia newspaper of an organization of former wine growers to manufacture grape jelly containing sufficient aico- hol that spoonful dissolved in water would make fair grade of wine.
 Such jelly could not be sold in Arizona within the law" declared the attorney general who pointed out that the Arizona prohibition law does not confine itself to beverages, but to any preparations or mixtures containing alcohol.
 Newspaper advertisements of ex- tracts and certain medicinal prepara- tions were read by MT. Jones who said that those high in alcoholic content would be excluded from this state.
 At the conclusion of his talk. MT Jones was given rising vote of thanks.

BANKERS SUIT ON
PAR CLEARANCE
ORDER DISMISSED

SAVANNAH, Ga, April 3.-Judge
Beverly D. Evans, of the federal
court, today refused to remand to
the state courts the case of the
Georgia Country Bankers associa-
ton against the Federal Reserve
Bank of Atlanta, and dismissed the
bill
The case was one in which the
country banks sought to prohibit the
federal reserve bank from putting
into effect it's order to enforce the
country banks to clear their paper
at par. The case first came up in
the Fulton county superior court. and
was later taken to the federal courts.
The country banks then petitioned
to have the case remanded, a1leg-
ing that the matter was one for
state, and not federal, courts to han
die. They also alleged conspiracy.
Commenting on the decision to re-
mand, Judge Evans said that the
general object of the federal reserve
system would be thwarted if the
reserve banks could sue and (be sued
under the same conditions as ma
tional banking associations. On the
motion to dismiss the bill, the de-
cision states that depriving the
banks of part of the revenues they
previously enjoyed is not unlawful,
and that the allegations of con-
spiracy are lacking in essential feat
ures to charge an actionable wrong

Woman Advocates of
Free Ireland Stop
Pickering Embassy

WASHINGTON, April c.-Picket-
ing o fthe British embassy by wom-
en- advocates of an Irish republic
was abandoned today. Mrs. T. K.
Corliss, New York, leader of the
pickets, denied the demonstration
was called off at the request of the
state department, which late yester-
day announced that the bicketing
was deeply regretted" and that EFF
fective measures" would be taken to
prevent conduct deemed a breach of
courtesy to representatives of a
friendly power.
Mrs. Corliss said last night that
the demonstrations would continue
at the embassy and at the capitol
'indefnitely."
I'VE don't want violence, but we
are going to wake up this sleepy
congress and this backsliding gov
eminent to Americas obliga ton. :"
she said.
This morning, however, Mrs. Cor
liss said there would be no more
picketing, and that she believed the
object of the demonstration had al
ready been accomplished.
The real object. she said, was to
have newspapers all over the coun-
try print her charge that the British
planned an Irish massacre, beginning
Monday.
