WHISKEY
TRIAL At
IND. HARBOR

Feter Slubusky employed in the
soft drink parlor at 1901 Deodar street.
Indiana HarbOr. was given a hearing
yesterday afternoon before Special
Judge r. N. Royce on a charge Of sell
ing and having liquor in his possession.
Federal prohibition officers Mont
gomery and McMann of Hammond who
arrested the defendant Nov. ! stated
that they went to the defendants
place Of employment with a search
warrant and found a glass of liquor
on the bar and an empty pint bottle
that had contained liquor lying on the
floor
The defense attempted to show that
three young men had entered the soft
drink parlcr and asked Slubusky who
was attending bar to try some of their
liquor and assured him that it was
100 proof
Slubusky in his statements said that
he refused 10 taste the liquor where
upon the three men emptled the bot
tie and asked him TO throw the bottle
away.
Before so doing they poured a little
whisky in the glass and left 1t stand
ing on the bar. About this time enter
ed the prohibition officers who finding
LnG empty DQtAlE anu INC grass VI
whisky on the bar. placed Slubusky
under arrest
Counsel for the defense asserted that
two other men named John Sulski and
another whose name could not be re-
menbered had been in the parlor play
ing pool. and were In there at the
time that the young men attempted to
sell the liquor. However. Mr.. Sulski
was not in court to substantiate the
defense's statement.
Judge Royce after a careful review
OF the case found Slubusky guilty on
the charge of having liquor in his pos
session and fined him 500 and costs
and 80 days in the county ajl. The
Jail sentence was later suspended by
the Judge on the ground that the de-
fendant was merely an employe OF ths
parlor and under the federal prohibi-
zion law he is granted this right.
The court bitterly rebuked witnesses
for defendant and for the plaintiff in
the manner In which they secured Their
testimony.

The different organizations " tre

the fight is won whether it be weeks

Organizations who are supporting
the clerks have tried every available
means of arranging a meeting with
the merchants to thrash out the diff
ferences between the two. The mer-
chants have refused to meet a COM

When a firm who labors for self and

puts forth their honest and best ef-
forts t. further tne interest of the

reason why they should have the sym

Three Pruning Hints

Water-sprouts and the surplus
limbs take too much water from
the trees in time of drought; prune
out those which are not needed on
the tree, and save the water for
the fruit.
For tree wounds paint is good
dressing. Mix white lead and raw
linseed-oil and have it rather
thick. A bit of raw sienna will
give the paint very nearly the
color of the bark of the tree.
Our own rule is to prune grapes
after severe winter weather is over
and before the vines bleed. Here
is the secret of pruning grapes in
a few words: The grape bears
fruit only from buds on wood Of
the past summers growth. If yor
constantly keep that principle il
mind you can't go very far astray

The Flower Called
Star of Bethlehem

Originally brought from Italian
fields, but now known from New En-
gland west to the Mississippi, and as
far south as Tennessee is the delicate
meadow flower called the Star of
bethlehem.
This dainty herb belongs to the lily
family, and Is frequently found grow
ing in the tall grass near sidewalks or
in dooryards not often moved.
Leaves and flower stalks both alise
from a coated bulb, and grow to a
height of ten Or twelve inches. The
leeves arf narrow, nucn like the
grass in which it grows.
The flowers themselves are made up
of six white petal-llke sepals, green
on the outside, and greenveined with
in, six stamens, and central three
lobed pistil When in full bloom, the
flowers are decidedly STARRY" as they
peer through the long, lark grasses of
early spring.
In most flowers a general numeri-
cal plan is noticeable. In the lily
family, which includes the Star of
Bethlehem, the parts are in threes or
multiples thereof, and those of the
mustard family in fours. Other fam
lilies have fives, and so on.
Flowers, however, vary greatly
from this type form, notifications
having come about through adaptation
to different modes of life.
Scientifically the chief object o1
flowers is the production of seed, bu
they also fill an important place il

American College Life Seen
Through French Eye.

A young French woman who is
taking her senior year at Smith
College, as an exchange student
from the Sorbonne describes col
lege life naively as "the chance to
play together as well as work to-
gether.
This American college spirit, as
she has experienced it at Smith
since last September, has impressed
her strongly, for there is nothing
like it for university women in
France. There they meet at lee
lures, but never come together
socially.
"When 1000 girls sing together
there is a spiritual elation that
takes possession Of ones entire
being. Nothing unworthy can sur
vive it," she says.
