PLANS HOTELS FOR WAR ZONE
French Association Expects Influx Of
American Tourists to Battle
Front.

Paris, France.-Hotel men, seeking
fortunes in the expected flood of Amer
lean and other tourists next year are
planning to erect "barrack hotels"
along the battle front. The National
Chamber of Hotelkeepers, cooperating
with the government, is seeking pri-
vate capital to put up such temporary
buildings during the winter.
Officers of the association say most
of the hOstelrieS now operating at
towns on the front have patrons
sleeping in halls and even on billiard
tables" The first efforts are being di-
rec I'd toward making habitable hotels
that were damaged during the wal and
inducing owners of places destroyed to
rebHild them.

FIVE SUNDAYS.

The world will experience a

for the first time in 40 years.
and for the last time during the
coming % years, unless the cal
endar in vogue at the present

If 1900 had been a leap year
the five-Sunday February would
have happened in 1908, but the

put the five-Sunday February
off for II years.
Since 1900 there was a five.

NEW DETECTIVE AGENCIES

"Vigilance" committees, or more
accurately detective agencies,

Roper in his widely noted letter
to pastors, are likely to call q
halt in the interests of their own
dignity, if for no other reason.
when they hear of the Bennett
bill introduced in the legislature
at Annapolis. If the Bennett bill
should become a law, churches
appointing such committees, or
agencies for shadowing and get
ting evidence against v~io1ators
of the prohibition law, will be
required to take out licenses as
private detective agencies. Such
a prospect will be anything but
alluring to an ecclesiastical body
which realizes that it exists foI
higher uses than detecting anC
bringing laWbreakers to account
"a rough business for which
the civil authorities are appoint,
ed and for which they should bt
wholly responsible.
The Bennett bill provides that
"every corporation or associa.
ton, ecclesiastical or lay, which
shall maintain an organization
or committee, or use its organi
cation or any committee Thereof
for the purpose of h~abitually OF
regularly gathering information
of violations Of the law for the

them supposed to have violated
any law, shall be deemed t,

ency and shall take out a licens>
and pay therefore as provided i,
preceding section" The bill goe:
on to declare that any such cor
~poration or association withou1
taking out a license shall bt
deemed a public nuisance" anc
necessary steps to abate such
nuisance by dissolving the cor
poration or association may b.
taken. Churches may preach
prohibition, but its enforcement
may more appropriately be lief
to the civil authorities.
