MARINETTE. Wis, Dec. 20-After
clearing $4,000 acres of land in 1920
thereby establishing a worlds record,
Marinette county. Wis. through the
Marinette County Land Clearing asso-
citation. proposes to clear 10000 acres
in 1921. Larry F. Livingston. secre-
tary and directing engineer of the as
sociation, in announcing the program
for 1921. says that the impetus given
land clearing in the county by the
1920 campaign would insure at least
q duplication of this years clearing
without the aid of the association.
A complication of renorts and pro-
iects indicates that 100000 acres Of
land will be cleared in upper Wiscon-
sin. Michigan, and Minnesota in
1901. under the impulse given bv the
WISCONSIN College of Agriculture.
which began the first organized land
clearing campaign of education in
1914 and has continued it ever since.

MASK AND MANTLE
DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
IN FIRST PRODUCTION

Presenting difficult play in a very
creditable manner, the Mask and Man
tie. Eariham's dramatic society. made
its initial appearance Saturday night
before large and appreciative aud
fence. The youthful actors deserve
praise for their successful presenta-
ton of Milestones, which Is a play re-
curing experience and staging facili-
ties not generally within the reach
of amateur producers.
Difficulty would be encountered in
selecting any star performer from the
cast as all of the characters took their
parts we'll. John Green in the role
of an enthusiastic young iron founder
who as the action of the play pro-
ceeds and his age increases gradually
loses his ambition, had perhaps the
most important part and showed re-
markable ability in his Interpretation
Of it.
Characters contrasted.
The action of the play covers
period of SO years and brings forth
the ever presnt conflict between the
ambitions of the rising generations as
conf1icted with the more conservative
views OF the passing generation. Each
act brought on another set of new
charcters to show the contrast be-
tween their views and those of their
ancestors.
> The Mask and Mantle will continue
the STUDY of worthwhile plays at their
reeular meetings and may make an
ether public appearance later on in
the year.
Priase Mrs. Robinson.
The play was coached by Mrs. H.
r. Robinson. who has had previous
experience in coaching Earlham pro-
auctions. Much credit is due her for
the way in which the character de-
Nelopmont was portrayed. Part of the
costumes. were ordered from a costun,-
Ing house and the remainder were
obtained by Miss Eleanor Day, COS
tuner of the Climb. Properties and
settings were worked ont by Miss Day
:rd Robert Swain. Miss La Verne
yores was in charge of the makeup.

changing from an Indifferent attitude
to one of keen interest and activity.
Talks were made by the Revs. L. E.
Murray and r. w. Stoakes, and a
representative from the Central Labor
Council. The meeting took the form
of a round table discussion.
Pleads For Enforcement.
Making a plea for law enforcement,
Mr.. Shumaker. called upon the people
of Richmond ''to stand solid for the
enforcement of the Eighteenth amend
ment," at the morning church service
of st. Pauls Lutheran church, Sun
day. Silimar pleas were made by sew
en- other anti-saloon league representa-
tives in Richmond churches, during
the day.
1--WE will not need a league of ma
lions; the countries of the world can
disarm and beat their swords into
plow-shares and their spears into
pruning hooks when world prohibi-
ton has been realized"
To back up this assertion the speak
er told of how Mexicians have been
led to evil deeds when they had been
filled with intoxicating liquors. He
cited figures to show that approx
mately $1OO,O0O,O0O annually was be-
ing spent by the United States for Dor
der protection, and that this great
sum of money could be saved yearly
providing liquor was not to be had by

the otherwise harmless Mexican citi-
zens. Mr.. Shumaker event went so
far as to declare tnat it was booze"
that caused the World war, and that
from it's results we are now called
upon to feed and clothe the starving
millions.
Explains Duties.
at is the duty Of all law-abiding
citizens to uphold the law of our land,
yet after the United States congress
had passed the Volstead act, Californ-
ia declined to put into operation eff
fective legislation to carry out the Is
amendment, by a majority of $4,000.
Massachusetts likewise failed to re-
strict the sale of beer and light wines.
Ohio went on record by $4,000 votes
as against law enforcement, when the
people went to the polls.
People practically stand for an
archy when they take desperate
means to get and sell liquor, contrary
to our national laws. Thousands and
millions of gallons have found their
way out TO legalized bonded ware
houses. and are being used illegally.
Then there is the springing up of stills
throughout the land, hundreds of them
right here in Indiana"
From this point Mr. Shumaker told
of the blockade running from Canada
into the United States by high pow
cred motor cars Carrying gallons of

American Red Cross, holding two sessions weekly for four weeks. These sessions will be held at the Civic Association. Bir- mlngham, and it is earnestly hoped that we will have the cooperation of all social agencies in our district.
 The plan suggests itself to us out of our experience during the last three or four years. During this time, the Red Cross has found it necessary to go to con- siderable expense to train workers ana to enlist in it's activities other agencies for the well-being of humanity
 A tentative programme is inclosed for your information. From this you will observe that we are enisting the services of talent in our own community, men and women. who are distinguished in their several lines, and have working knowl- edge of the subjects assigned them. We hope to have, in addition, few promi- nent men and women from other cities
 Instruction will be given principally by means of lectures of about forty min utes each, and students will be asked to take notes and at the end of each lec- ture to ask such questions as may oc- cur. We hope by this means to impart to every social agency the knowledge of how they can obtain assistance in most departments of human need. We hope also to enlist cooperative spirit among the various social agencies.
 The plan contemplates discussion of for handling. We expect to also show you just how you can obtain the advice of experts in troublesome cases
 An enrolment card is inclosed and in order that we may be able to make proper provision we suggest that persons desir- ing to attend this course send in these cards not later than July 15.
