 TO BE ISSUE IN ELECTION

WESTERVILLE, O., March s. - Will the issue of prohibition figure in the nomination of presidential can. didates and the election hereafter.
 The Anti-Saloon League of America through a statement issued by E. H.. Cherrington, secretary of it's executive committee, endeavors to answer that question by declaring that prohibition, or rather, safeguarding of prohibition, yilA be very live issue ill not only the presidential campaign but Ill the election of Congressman.
 Prohibition is here, and, as we be- lieve, to stay The question at issue is not whether prohibition is or IS not desirable. That was question on which men might honestly differ before prohibition became a law of the land and part of the federal con- stitution. Triumph of prohibition was made possible only by Will or the majority, and that same will, working through the lawful processes by which prohibition became law, can, II II chooses. take prohibition out of the constitution.
 "The question at issue now IS shall the law be enforced? To that question there can be but one answer. Whether a man believes in prohibition or not he must comply with the law and aid in it's enforcement or be a lawless citizen. AS the Ant1-Saloon Laague sees it, two important things are involved in the coming nom1na' tions and elections: firstly, that the chief executive of this nation who IS the chief law enforcement official, must be man wholly committed to the enforcement policy; and, second, that Congress must be elected that will take no backward step in prohl' bition legislation

 Then came my manhood and Cali fornia. I had risen to a good job and happiness. 1 met my sweetheart and it seemed to me life was all too wonder ful. She never told me of het girl hood. I never asked. I was afraid it might lead to questions about my early life.

EARTHQUAKE SHOCKS
 FELT IN INTERIOR

A severe earthquake was recorded in Interior Alaska recently, the vibra- uons being so pronounced along the Broad Pass and Richardson trails as to tumble dishes from shelves and rock buildings so as to alarm the occupants and cause 8 general hasty scharmble for the open.
 The shock was felt in Nenana and also in Fairbanks, but so slight was it in the two towns that many did not notice it. On the Richarson trail the disturbances were very pro- nounced, at Millers and Paxsons and between those two points the shock lasting more than minute. Dishes were knocked from the shelves at Millers and the roadhouse shook as if 1t were about to collapse.
 The shock was also severe along the line south of Nenana, and par ticularly so beyond the end of steel. Mrs. Alfred, who conducts the Can yon roadhouse, eight miles beyond the end of steel, reports that much excitement was caused at her place by the quake, the shock being one of the most severe experienced in that section in number of years.
 As nearly as can be ascertained, however, no damage of consequece resulted at any point

 Hidden 20 Years in Home

A woman living in a busy street in Portsmouth, England, had hidden her children, male dwarf twenty years old, and two girls, eighteen and fifteen, re- spectively, from the time of their birth.

 Because of their deformity the mother feared the children would be taken from her. So she had concealed them all these years.

THE OLD YEAR.

| view the old year with re-
greet, my record sadly reading :;
for l went deeply into debt for
things | wasn't needing. When
ever | had earned a PUNK |
seemed to fret and worry, un-
less | blew it in for junk, and
blew it in a hurry. And now
collectors dog my path, they
chase me through the alleys,
they catch me when I'm in the
bath, and bore me with their
sallies, Around my humble
home they perch, they're roost-
ing on the fences, they follow
when l go to church, they jar
my seven senses. And lawyers
tag me on the street, and bailiffs
show their mettle, and every
guy | chance to meet requests
that | will settle. Oh, life is but
a doleful thing, when debts are
nerce ana many, ana Dunn COL
lectors form a ring and take
your final penny. And shame
and trouble with you lodge, and
hug your ever closer, if you're
the gent who has to dodge the
butcher. and the grocer. Col
lectors chased me all the year,
and made. things very trying,
and after this my course is clear
-I'llspay, for all I'm buying. And
when this sad old year expires,
at debt you'll see me baking; if
l can't pay for rubber tires, I'll
put in twelve months walking.
