men to be congratulated for their
splendid visions and unselfish CO.

high class store that compares favor
ably with any of its kind in the city.
No expense has been spared in the
decoration and the appointments have
been made with rare judgment and
taste.
In this rev store will be found
all of the first class toilet articles
and all of the essential sundries can
be obtained at popular prices. The
prescription dept. is under the direct
supervision of a trained pharmacist
and every prescription is carely com
pounded with purest and freshest
drugs. A beautiful soda fountain
furnishes refreshment to customers
and ice cream that has made its
producers famous is served exclu-
sively.

known and admired by all. Mr..
Edward N. White has been associated

Mr.. Smith, the third partner is also
well known in the community. He is
the owner of the A. B. C. employ

These gentlemen are to be sup

Second; Out of the S25 that have

for the Public to expect the Trustees
to raise S130,000.00 in this length
of time, when it took the Hunter Co
nearly two years to lose it.
Comparing the two positions, the
Hunter Co. had the support of the
Churches, and the Colored Press to
boost its business. The Trustees
have been refused making even an
nouncements in the Churches, and all
the slanderous comments that some
Of the Papers could affort to print.

To see their race used as dupes to

One wonders what Lincoln would

over half of the beautiful Irish songs
are goodbye songs. Nearly every
home there has lost one of its loved
ones who has gone over the seas to
seek his fortune, and it's sad little
Ireland with its parting songs, for
they are truly parting songs when
the Irish Barney tells his Nora good
bye--he knows that it is goodbye for
ever.
Prof Jackson sang an Irish song
at this point which was quite effec-
tive. He also sang some folk songs
popular in the Scottish public drink
ing houses, showing the jolly times
the Scotchman has during the even

Saturday Night and Sunday.
Prof. Jackson told of one Saturday
night he spent in Scotch tavern,
the kind their poet used to write
about. He says he couldn't sleep for
the noise and racket they made
downstairs with their songs and
drinking till midnight, but after that
time things were quiet. The next
morning everyone went to church

QUIT TOBACCO
So easy to drop Cigarette,
Cigar, or Chewing habit

No-To-Bac has helped thousands to
break the costly, nerve-shattering to-
bacco habit. Whenever you have a
longing for smoke or chew, just
place a harmless No-To-Bac tablet in
your mouth instead. All desire stops.
Shortly the habit is completely broken
and you are better off mentally, phys
ically, financially. It's so easy, so
simple. Get box of No-To-Bac and
IL it doesn't release you from all
craving for tobacco in any form, your
druggist will refund your money
without question. No-To-Bac is made
by the owners Of Cascarets; there
fore is thoroughly reliable.

worshipers were all of the men who
the night before had been in the
tavern; and the dissipation of the
night before and the church services
on this Sunday were not strange
combinations to them at all"
The land of Robert Burns was not
forgotten in yesterdays travelogue,
and the farm at Mt. Ayr, the shore
of the sweet Alton and the highlands
of Mary were visited.
Paris and Chateau Thierry before
the war, Germany on the banks of
the Rhine and the famous village Of
Oberammergau, where the Passion
play is given every ten years, and
William Tells home in Switzerland
were all visited hurriedly before the
return to Liverpool.
Back Pay Is Urged.
In speaking of Chateau Thierry
and it's place in the history of the
worlds war, Prof. Jackson paid a
great tribute to the American sol
diers who helped to stem the tide
there, and he said "the people in
some states are now talking about
giving these soldiers bonuses for
their service in the army. Give them
more money, by all means, but call
| it back pay, not bonus, which they
will have to say thank you for. It's
The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1920-07-20

back pay, and they deserve every
cent you give them"
The speaker told why the Passion
play will not be given this year 1t
isn't because the man who has played
the part of the Nazerine was killed
in the trenches. It's because Of the
hatred that's in the hearts Of the
people in that land. The man who
portrays the Christ said this year,
I'VE cannot give the Passion play
yet, for there is hatred in the hearts
of our people," and that is the reaso-
that, for the first ten years in th
last three hundred years, there viii
be no Passion play-hatred in the
hearts of the people.
The Journey Home.
Professor Jackson brought his trav-
elers into Liverpool from Switzerland
yesterday rather quickly for it was
1914 at this stage of the game and
the $4,000 Americans in England were
all anxious to get back to the United
States on the first boat After many
days of worrying about passports on
vessels which might be taken over
for war uses, the speaker boarded one
of them as steerage passenger and
returned to America never SO glad in

Austrian Assembly Passes
Tax-on-We ealth Bill

VIENNA, Aug 1.-The -on-wealth
bill has been adopted by the Assembly
after including in it the amendments
proposed by the reparations commits
sion. These amendments, which caused
much criticism, were designed to pre-
vent the bill contravening terms Of
the peace treaty or conflicting with
the Entcnte's proposal of May q. 1920,
Tor a bond issue to cover present or
future credits to Austria.
Chancellor Renner, in presenting the
amendments, said he did so because
national misery forced the country to
comply with Allied demands.
Foreign Minister Bauer said. with
bitterness, that it was the first time
in history q foreign power ever drafted
and forced acceptance of amendments
to legislation pending in the Legisla
ture of another state He was cheered
loudly.
Social Democrats during the debate
charged that Christian Socialists had
attempted to defeat the measure by
inspiring bankers and representatives
OF big business" to go to the repara-
lions commission to point out the
dangers of the bill. When Denutv
FRIEDMAN admitted doing so, and began
defense of his course, there were
CRIES of ."Traitor! Hang him." A group
OF members made rush for Fried
man, but he hid under desk and

American Students
Aid Repatriation of
Russian / Prisoners
Party of Rhodes Scholars
From Oxford University
Arrives in Berlin to Assist
i'm Y.M.C.A. Relief Work

BERLIN, July 25.-A party Of young
Americans, all Rhodes scholars, has
arrived here from Oxford University
to assist in the Y. NJ. C. A. relief work
in connection with the repatriation of
Russian prisoners Of war.
They will be assigned to various
prison camps throughout Germany
where 175, 900 Russians are awaiting
ships to take them home. About 25 900
already have been sent from Stettin
to Nnrva, but there are so few ships
available it may be months before the
last OF them can be embarked. Mean
time the Russians are suffering severe
privations.
Almost without exception the Amer
lean students served during the war
with the American Expeditionary
Forces or were associated with relief
work in Europe. Their leader is Fran
els p. Miller. of Lexington, Va, a
graduate of Washington and Lee Uni
versity Other members of the party
are David NJ. Amackcr, Lake Provi-
dence, La; Joseph David Doty Graham,
Texas; William L. Finger, Ripley
Miss. Rex B. Herscy, Huntington, w.
Va; G. A. Feather, University Of New
Mexico; F. Treadwell Smith and s. M.
NA~iiSf VI iie1l NdAN ~ biFciSitN ~ / :
Miller, University of Denver, and f.
Naugle, University of Texas.
Five years confinement in prison
camps has reduced the Russians to
pitiable condition. Many are ill., some
insane, and all undernourished i'm
properly clothed and dspirted. From
the German government each receives
small monthly allowance which is
insufficient to provide even the neces-
saries of life.
Officers at the Wuelzburg camp re-
celve monthly 135 marks, which is
about S3,1O. For the one meager daily
meal they get at the camp So marks
is deducted. Out of what is left they
must try to buy clothes and other es-
sentials. Such thing, for example, as
dental attention Is wholly beyond their
means. Some have sold their last
shirts to pay for shoe repairs. Shoes
are their crying need and the prison
ers hardly take step without calcu-
