Already old tricks are being revived and new ones in vented by smugglers who are match ing their wits against those of the customs officers in an effort to bring contraband whiskey from Canada into the states.

Liquor with an aged-in-wood kick will soon be flowing into Western Canada provinces. according to ac- counts reaching here from Vancou- yer and Victoria, B. c.
 While Ontario and British Colum- bia have dry laws prohibiting the sale of liquor across bars or i'll any way except by government vendor upon an order from q physician. these measures do not prevent inter province traffic by mail and ex- press.

follows:
The report sets forth that there was
no necessity Of the expensive hollow
tile construction Even for temporary
quarters. two story frame construction
for buildings i'm which women sleep in
small compartments involves an un-
necessary fire risk. The majority OF
the frame war buildings in Washing

for sleeping quarters. Available ground
was limited in view Of the numbers
expected to be housed. Most Of the
members of the Housing Corporation
voted for hollow tile S-story construc-
ito nfor the following reasons.
4. Maximum housing capacity with
reasonable FIRE protection. a-story
frame involving heavier fire risk and
over 3-story involving more expensive
tile construction.

DOLL HOUSE" CHARMS BIG CONWAY AUDIENCE

loSen drama as interpreted by Mad anne Borgny Hammer and a capable company of Norwegian players scored distinct success with the large audi ence out last night to witness the flrst of the two performances in the high school auditorium. "A Dolls House. one of Ibsen's better known plays and chased with the Master Builder and ''Hedda Gabler" as his three best dramas, proved ideally adapted to the playing of Madame Hammer and her company As Nora, the wife of banker, who resents the narrow confines of her existence and the denial of opportunity to be more than a dweller in dolls house." Madame Hammer portrayed fifficult role with understanding and with full realization of the spirit of the play. She answered several curtain calls.
 Falling little, if any, short of Mad anne Hammers acting, Rolf Hammer appeared to great advantage in the role of Throvaldsen, the banker, whose lack of understanding of his wife makes "A Dolls House" a tragedy MT. Hammer has a pleasing stage appearance, and well modulated speaking voice, which his accent at times made difficult comprehension. Other members in the company, cast in the roles of Dr. Lang and Mme Lindsay, carried subordinate parts with effective acting.
 "Hedda Gabler" will be presented by the company in its final appear ance here tonight. The drama is said to provide even better opportunity for the highest class of dramatic ln- terpretation, an opportunity which Madame Hammer and her company, by their playing last night, convinced the audience they will fully realize The joint lyceum committee is much gratifled by the interest taken in the performances by the public An audi

much more) there would be ton
mileage saving of s34,O0O,0oo. Since
the average haul is ten miles rather
than one the actual saving in the
transportation cost Of merchandise
would be $340,000,000 year.
Thus In two items we have arrived
at an annual saving Of s457,000, 900, or
more than is asked for over a period
Of four years In the bill introduced by
Senator Townsend, Of Michigan, pro-
posing the construction Of such sys-
tenn as that outlined.
When the saving in depreciation, the
lowered cost of commodities to the
ultimate consumer, the increased valu-
alton Of realty and broadened markets
are taken into account, the sum al
ready named becomes small by COM
parison.
Our counties and states have recog-
nized the economic Importance Of road
construction by appropriating more
than ,000,000000 to local i'm
provements. 1t is the nations part
to build and maintain those highways,
which are of national Importance and
which will serve to effect economy,
facilitate interstate commerce and
strengthen the common defense.
The vision of the United States,
bound together by network Of dur
able highways, Is one which we should
seek to make a reality at the earliest
possible moment.
The means to the end is at hand
in Senator Townsends measure. 1t
