of the village. promoters of the car
nival held in the village last week
feel highly gratifed over the success
resulting therefrom. Announcement
was made today by the committee
that the net receipts amount to $S25

full nights, and part of another, rain
interfered with the fete.
AT the meeting of the carnival COM

all affairs pertaining to the fete, it
was also decided that the firemen of
the village pay visit to their broth

WATER WITCH FEE

Good Showing From Carnival
Recently Held BY Firemen
To Buy Apparatus
woMEN's GOOD WORK

Figures are said not to falsify. but il
seems almost incredible to the masses
that the carnival and street fese re.
Gently held foot OF Main street at City
Park by the Water Witch Hook and
I>cdder Company. of the city volunteer
fire department, realized the good sum
of $3.511.23.
These are the net proceeds, how
ever, and returns of sale were made
this morning for publication by the
chairman OF the woman's committee OF
carnival helpers, Mrs. Mamie Lang.
Such a sum represents stupendous
amount of work and energy and pa
tient and untiring effort
But all these the corps of women
helpers, unCer the leadership of Mrs.
Lang, are capable of, and to their
credit be it said that large share OF
the success is due. According to Mrs.
Lang's report, the total receipts of the
weeks carnival and street fete given
Under the direction Of the Water
Witch Company, amounted to $6,022 81
and the total expenses aggregated ST.
511.3S, leaving net balance of 3d.
511.23.
OF this splendid sum Mrs. Lang per-
sonally collected from donations the
sum of s54312, and there are several
o-.standing checks which will swell
this amount materially
Water Witch night for the hospital
benefit realized the sum of s111.12,
which was deposited in bank this
morning to the credit of the hospital.
OF the receipts from the Water
Witch carnival, the following is the
result of the work of the women
helpers Tables and booths in charge
Of women, $2,470.03; donations,
$54312; total receipts, $SO13.15. Total
expenses at tables and booths il
charge of women workers, $685.. 40 /;
net proceeds. $2.62775.
The entire showing is considered an
excellent one. and tie workers are
asking themselves the question::
Where does all the money come
from?D
Water Witch Company has decided
to hold its carnival next year in June,
month or more earlier than this year

BLUE AND GOLD TEAM
RETAINS SOME BIG ONES

The reluctance OF the Intercollegi-
ate Wrestling Association to receive
the Naval Academy as a member APP
pears to be the penalty of great sue
cess of the midshipmen recently in
this and other branches of sport. The
application of the local Institution has
been before the Association since the
early part of last fall. and has not
been acted upon. Some of the mem
bers say frankly that they feel that
the Naval Academy team is too strong
Tor the other members.
The Academy management sent in
its application for membership before
the final tournament last season, and,
at the same time. asked for a waiver
OF the rule which requires member
ship OF a year before a team is ad-
mitted to the finals. The Naval Acad-
envy was in a position to send team,
but the application was not acted upon
at all. so their entry was not received.
In view of the delay in acting. their
team could be kept out of the finals
again by this rule, even if the Naval
Academy was accepted as member.
Representatives of the other insti-
tutions have said unofficialiy that they
do not consider the Naval Academy on
the same basis, as to this sport, with
the other colleges because wrestling
is regular part of the training. The
fact is that wrestling is no more a
part of the midshipmen's training than
any other sport, and not so much as
some. Under the present system, all
midshipmen- are given some 1instruc-
ton and practice in all the usual
sports, so that this reason would dis
qualify the Navy teams from partici-
patton in competitions in any sport.
Not so much attention is paid in an
Official way to wrestling as to rowing,
swimming and fencing, which are
more distinctly part of the course
than the other branches.
The showing of the midshipmen in
wrestling has been of very high or

SERVANT OF PEOPLE

while the executive station is one
of generally accepted distinction. to
me it does not bespeak elevation
above my fellows. The relation of
private citizenship established an
equal base. but when one assumes
the duties incumbent upon this office,
a proper conception of the situation
makes him a servant of the people,
and unless he responds to full APP
probation of the superior rights and
powers of those he agrees to serve
he begins either with a false vision
or a species of treason in his heart.

AMERICA ID DENY ALLIES FURTHER |S RULING
ResubsI.an A. p. Leased WIreI

WA SIGNGTON, March 1o.- An aounccmenr by Secretary Houston that no further loans would be made to the allies was believed tonight to indicate the adoption by the treasury of the policy favored by the debtor nations Of defer-ing interest payments for the next three years or more.
 Under authority granted by congress to extend $i0,o00, 000.o 900 credits to the allied nations, the treasury has made loans amounting to s9,659, ,S34, ,649. Secretary Houston said that the re- mainder of the credits authorized would not be granted, as il was thought sufficient advances had been made
 Discussing the question, treasury officials said that in view of the ex- change situation and the unsettled condition of the European nations dur ing the reconstruction period it would sem advisable to permit them to postpone interest payments for at least three years. Then, it is believed, they would be in a position to meet their obligations.
 With the interest on the loans com puted at , per cent, the total due the United States yearly is about $40 00O,- GOO. an enormous sum for the war wearied countries to pay at present. If interest is funded into long term obligations, the interest on the pay ments thus deferred will amount to only S23.000,000 yearly, which can be paid and the credit of the debtor na- tions maintained. Treasury officials are working on recommendations to submit to congress as to the course to be followed if deferred payments are permitted.
 It has been suggested that the in terest on the interest be charged off, but the prposal has met with strong but the proposal has met with strong
