 Ehatford. May 20-A capacity house l filed Red Mems hall last evening when the <hree-act comedy, Engaged by Wednesday, was presented by the SeH3urs of the Stratford High school The plot Of the play was an extensive case Of mistaken identity which was created when four girls dn a small town decided to be known as Lucille Persons so that Arthur Watson may not know which was the real Lucille. Arthur. however, conceived the same idea and consequently when the three chums become known as Arthur Wat son the girls as well as the boys were mystifed. The play was a most cred table production and much credit was given not only those who took the various parts but to Miss Alice c. Bugbee. who coached the presen- tation. Those who took part and the parts they played were as follows: Martin Henry, the 1aziest man in the country, Robert Fflmer; Arthur Wat son, Arthur Smith; "Jack,' 'Ted," 'Dick,'' friends of Arthur Watson. Lawrence Beardmore, Edmund Luce and Donald Stevenson; Miss Abigail Persons, a woman of ideas. Elsie Hubben; Mrs. Watson, a gentle per son, Inez Carey; Lucille Persons. Mar garette Ryan; Marie" "Jane, Mabel" friends of Lucille Persons. Fora Adamson, Mildred Persons and Gertrude Moore: Mary, Martin Henry's aunt, a cook at the Persons. Ruby Wheeler; Nell, another friend of Lucille, Mary McGrath; first gypsy, Gertrude Wilkinson; second gypsy, Ruth Doe; other guests at the dance, Gertrude Wilkinson, Joyce Corbett, Catherine Filmer, Howard DuCharme, Robert Thompson, Rob- ert Thompson and Edmund Judson. Between acts one and two, Miss Alice Hill sang, and between acts two and three, the double quartet of the High school were heard in vocal selections. Following the play dancing was en- joyed until a late hour, music being furnished by Coles orchestra. The committee in charge of the function comprised Howard DuCharme, chair man; Marguerite Ryan and Arthur Smith.
 Memorial night services will be celebrated by the members of Hous- atomic Grange at their meeting of Saturday evening in Grange hall when a very pleasing program appropriate for the occasion will be given. The program will comprise singing of the Star Spangled Banner by the as sembly; Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag; Roll Call; section by Worthy Chaplain Mrs. M. P. Avery; remarks by soldier boys; singing, Hail to the Flag" by quartet; .OId Glory sung by the gathering; flag drill in charge of Mrs. B.

THE BALLOT FOR ELECTION
is PRINTED IN THE REPUBLICAN
Six Marks Necessary To Vote Full
Ticket on all Propositions.

In this issue of The Republican will
be found the official ballot to be voted
at tire election.on November End. The
notice of election, specifying the
places where the voters may cast their
ballots is also set out in another col
umn. Under the newly amended law
there will be two voting precincts in
the Fourteenth District. Those whose
surnames begin with A and including
those whose names begin with NJ will
vote at the office of registration on
Liberty street adjoining the Oakland
Garage, while those whose surnames
begin with n and including those
whose surnames begin with Z, will
vote in the new office of the Oakland
Garage, directly adjoining the present
place. The Legislature, at its re-
cent special session requires the cleo
ton supervisors to erect a second vot-
ing place in any district where the
registration numbers eight hundred
or more, and in District No. IA this
number has been exceeded, hence to
comply with the law and to avoid any
possible congestion in the polling room
the second voting place has been es~
tablished. 1t would be well for the
voters to preserve this and the follow
ing issue of The Republican in order
to study and make themselves familiar
with the arrangement and marking OF
the ballot. To vote for Harding and
Coolidge it is only necessary to make
a X mark in the space provided there
for to the right of their names on the
ballot, which will be found in the CEN
ter of the first column. Passing to
the third column of the ballot will be
found the names of the Congressional
candidates, Mr.. Weller for the Senate.
and Mr., Zihlman for the House of
Representatives A X mark in the
spaces on the ballot to the right of
their names will also be required to
vote for them. The last column con-
tains the texts of the proposed amend
ments to the Constitution and the pro-
posed bond issue for public school pur-
poses where spaces to the right of
each proposition is provided wherein
the voter may indicate by X mark
his or her preference for or against.
If the voter desires to vote for or
against these several proposition, for
the presidential and vice-presidential
candidates, and for the Senatorial and
Congressional candidates the total
number of X cross marks necessary
will be 6.

COUNCIL TOLD OF TAR AND
A COAT OF FEATHERS ON TOP
Citizens of WesternpOrt Rise in Righ-
teOus Indignation.

Citizens, firing of lawlessness in
Westernport and indignant over the
name of "Bootleggers' Paradise" Civ.
en- the town, took the bull by the
horns" Monday night, so to speak,
and let it be known that a vigilance
committee>might get to work. After
an Indignation meeting at the Baptist
church they stOrmed the Town Council
chamber, forcing the appointment of
a town sergeant of their own choos-
ing. The citizens looked over the
names of the applicants on the table,
arbitrarily rejected them and then SUBJ
mltted the name of John H. Basye,
whom the Council appointed without
parley.
Recently Federal officers raided a
number of places at Westernport, max.
ing several arrests and hauling about
$4,000 worth of confiscated LIQUOR to
Cumberland. Then the Grand Jury
investigated conditions, charges hav-
ing been made that certain officials
were derelict in their duty and that
the general reign of lawlessness was
wlnked at. 1t was shown that How
ard Springer, the sole officer, besides
patrolling during the day and far into
the night, was also tax and water
rent collector Friday night Springer
resigned, and on Saturday night,with
no officer in the town, general bedlam
prevailed with fighting and orgies on
all sides and no one to stop the partic-
ipants. 500
This called for the indignation
meeting held Monday night in which
about 100 citizens participated and the
naming of a committee of five to wait
on the Council, then in session, and
demand that policemen be appointed
who would enforce the law The COM
mittee, composed of George C. Dixon,
chairman; W. W. Shultice, Charles
Peters, R. A.. Hofmeister and John
Barnard, proceeded posthaste to the
Council chamber, accompanied by
about 60 citizens, and their demands
were put forcibly and their attitude
was determined. 1t was intimated
that unless the lawlessness stopped, a
coat of tar and feathers was coming
to the violators as we'll as persons
who failed to exercise their authority
to stop them.
West Virginia was dry several
years before Maryland, and as West
ernport is just across the river from
Piedmont it was a resort for boot
leggers from that State and Western
port dealers cashed in heavily. The
picking" was so good that many
speakeasies are said to have been
maintained and bootlegging operated
on an elaborate scale despite national
prohibition.

and before they are stored. If they
were not, now is the time to put them
into immaculate condition. Every par
ticle of foreign matter inside or out
side should be removed and the
flanges around the top scrubbed with
brush. Then the whole can and its
top should be boiled in soda water.
If pickles have been in the jar, extra
care must be taken. After boiling,
the open jar should be placed in the
sunshine out of doors for several
days. A large part Of the losses in
canning is caused by the jars and
tops not being absolutely clean.

Washington, Aug. 23-If the Demo-
Gratis should elect majority in the
house and senate the south would be
in complete control of the purse
strings of the government and would,
if the past may be taken as evidence,
again authorize such discrimination
as that by which it in the Goth con-
gress held down the northern farm
er's wheat to $3.50 per bushel and
at the same time permitted the price
of the southern planters cotton to
soar.
In that Democratic congress there
was authorized for cantonments and

600 in the north. Sixteen southern
states paid in taxes 1921, 100000 in
1918, while IA northern states paid
81, 100, 100000. In the third liberty
loan campaign the percentage of pop
ulation subscribing in II northern
states averaged four times that of
II southern states. With a view to
rule Of the entire country in spite
of such discrepancies, the Democratic
south again seeks control of congress.
If the Democrats should be in the
saddle after March 4, 1921, the chair

HAWAIIAN TRADITION REVIVED
BY MEETING OF SCIENTISTS

Aryan language families separated
before the latter had developed their
infected form, and that traces of
Po1ynesians are found in the Malay
Archipelago. A majority of the immi-
grants are thought to have passed
through Torres straits to the Loyal
ity Islands and thence to Fiji, Samoa
and Tonga. Fornander's evidence of
their Indian origin is based mainly
on the casual resemblances of certain
Indian words to Polynesian, the Poly
nesian meanings being read into the
Indian word, or vice versa.
The theory of an Indian origin of
Polynesian, it seems. has the sup
port of number of authors and
writer's on the subject, but. it is said.
lacks the support Of sound linguistic
evidence.
AS all the native writings in the
first Of Judge Fornanders very in

The INQUIRY into labor conditions In
Russia undertaken by the interna-
t,onal labor Office of the league OF
nations has been completed, accoro-
ine to an announcement yesterday oy
the Department of Labor. the nno-
;n,s nrepared under the direction OF
DE- g. Pardo, head of the Russian IN
ouirv section of the international
labor office. are expected to be made
public shortly
The report is said to have grown
ont of the suggestion of M. Sokol,
Polish government delegate on the
governing body of the international
labor office at it's meeting in January
1920.
"The proposal was not received win
enthusiasm" according to the Laoor
Department statement. 1.-The governing
body shrinking from the idea that the
international labor Office should at the
very beginning of it's existence embark
on an enterprise which was not without
inconvenience and danger. The work.
ers representatives, however, urged that
it be adopted. laying particular stress
on the consideration that large portion
of the unrest among the working class
was perhaps due to complete ignorance
of what had happened in Russia. They
called attention to the fact that some
people claimed that everything was per-
feet and that workers who were suffer-
ing more and more from economic and
social disorder caused by the war were
fascinated by the mirage of bolshevik
paradise.
.In the opinion Of the workers dele
gates much of this unrest would vanish
IL the truth about labor conditions in
Russia and the situation Of the working
classes in Russia could be discovered
Composed of five employers, five
workers and two government dele
gates, the commission undertook sys-
