Boy Scouts And
Bee Hive Leaders
Enjoy Party

One of the jolliest and liveliest
parties held in fair Logan for long
time was that enjoyed to the ut
most by the Boy Scout and Beehive
leaders of Cache and Logan Stakes
at the Agricultural College, Friday
evening. The original plan was to
hold the party at Boy Scout Camp
in Logan Canyon, but the recent
storm upset that calculation. Not one
whit did the storm disturb the spir-
its of those earnest workers for the
boys and girls in this neck OF the
woods. however, for social, exuber-
ant Joy reigned supreme in the group
of one hundred and fifty who attend
ed the function. ~
Promptly at $3.50 the shrill whistle
of the Scout Executive rang out on
the air. The Scouts were separated
from their charming Bee partners,
were marched around the hall a
time or two, and then ordered to
sit by the Bee buzzing nearest. Not
one Scout felt that he had been
stung, for all the Bees were jolly
and charming Variety was the spice
of the evening and many shifts were
ordered to new partners as CONVEX
sation about the weather, the high
cost OF living. suffragettes, politics,
and the latest fashions were suggest
ed on the bill of fare. The fashion
partner received more permanent
commission by becoming the Scouts
partner for the evening.
Under the direction OF the Scout
Executive and the Deputy Commits
missioners squads of eight were for
med into patrols and each four pa
trolls into troops. Each patrol select
ed a name from among the animal
kingdom, either known or unknown.
where it should be distinguished
among the children of men. Then the
happy moment came to forward
march in orderly fashion to the pal
ace OF King Cooley, who had a de-
licious banquet prepared for all the
hungry subjects in his dominion.
Counting by tens was INDUCED in for
a moment when the announcement
was made that each No. 10 would
act as waiter. And so the feast was
on. Everyone obeyed orders to the
dot. for the spatting machine de-
monstration had been given as a
fair warming to those who should
violate any orders.
/ Laughter and songs resounded
throughout the dining hall, each pa
troll competing with all the rest in
songs and good nature. my Name is
Yon Yonson'', "old McTavlsh Had a
Little Farm. Said the Mother Dom
key" MARY Had a Little Lamb,
and similar classical songs were ruiz
ing favorites. Unfortunately Presi-
dent Gardens patrol had chosen the
fish as their party emblem, and
hence when called upon THE Poor
Fish" could only swim but not make
a speech or even a noise.
Adjourning to the women's Gym
nasium again. the group had the
pleasure Of hearing DR.. Henry s..
Curtis discuss very Interestingly the
subject Boy Scout and Beehive
Leadership. Everyone enjoyed him
self to the utmost and pronounced
the affair a most delightful, enter
tanning, and Instructive one.

MAN With Gray Gloves"
No Match for Paris Police
Their Efficiency Has Reduced Criminality
Thirty Per Cent During Past Year and
Solved Many Mysteries

PARIS. Dec &c. - Spurred by
newspaper criticism, the French po-
lice have been SO active in the last
year that criminality. in the Paris
district. shows a decrease of thirty
per cent since the beginning of the
year. Not only in the prevention of
crime, but alsoin its detection have
the police demonstrated unusuas
vigilence. Only one noted case. that
of the woman whose body, cut into
several pieces, was fished out Of the
Seine some months ago, remains I'M
solved. The head is still missing.
Believe In Police.
Those interested in the Landru
affair, and this means practically
every man. and certainly every wo-
man in Paris, make the point than
IL any single one OF the ten women
the modern Bluebeard is accused or
having slain were alive in France
the police would have found her by
now. They have gone ahead on
fiimsier descriptions OF missing per-
sons, murderers and bandits, and
have succeeded. In one case they
had nothing but finger prints to
work on. The two men concerned
they had murdered an old woman
for her savings-were guillotined a
month ago.
Some of the achievements of the
special force dealing with organised
bards of thieves read like a story by
Garborian of Lecoq. For instance,
there is the daring robbery of the
express near Marseilles several
months ago, in which a French Of
ficer who refused to put his hands
up" was shot dead. The bandits
were masked and all the police were
able to learn was that one of them
wore gray gloves of an unusual pat
tern. They affair of the Man with
the Gray Gloves" filled many coll
umns of the newspapers. Inspector
Mettefeu. who had DIRECT charge of
the case, refuses to disclose how
he learned that the man he was
after was known as Andre" and
that he was known in little cafe
in the Latin Quarter here. but with
in three hours after this piece or
Information reached him he was
hot on the trail of the bandit. Talks
with janitors and keepers of shady
hotels on the left bank of the Seine
supplied a little more information.
Ends in Pistol Duel.
Charter. the Man with the Gray
Gloves" was arrested as he was on
his way to a rendezvous with his
two accompliccs. He described
them. When police proceeded to ar
rest them there was a regular pistol
duel for five minutes. at the enc
of which the two bandits and a po-
lice inspector were dead.

ship BOARD FINDS
new SUBSIDY PLAN
Favors Differential Based on
Speed, Tonnage and Dis
lance Covered.

Members of the Shipping Board
and the experts associated with
them in the formulation of a pro-
gram for the aid of the American
merchant marine probably will rec
ommend to President Harding the
determination of the amount of re-
Enumeration to be paid to American
ships by a differential based on a
combination of speed, tonnage, and
distance covered.
This plan is the third of three
alternatives as suggested in the
preliminary report of the experts
presented to the board during the
past week.
The preliminary report stated
that a majority of the committee
favored a differential based on a
percentage of the payroll. This was
the first of the three alternatives
enumerated. the second in the list
being a differential based on gross
tons.
Following the conferences be-
tween the experts and the members
of the board. the sentiment has
turned against the use of the first
plan. In revising the plan for SUBJ
mission to the conference scheduled
for January the experts intend to
work out the third plan in greater
detail.
The plan which is given prefer
ence provides for the payment to
an American ship of certain num-
Der of cents per gross ton for each
100 miles steamed in the foreign
trade.

Only the other day. the police ar
rested the three robbers who smash
ed the windows OF one of the big
gest jewelry stores of the boule-
wards in broad daylight and es-
capped in a stolen automobile with
nearly a million francs worth OF
bems. This time all the police had to
go on was hat, an overcoat and 4
gun abandoned by the thieves when
the auto broke down.
Are Special Rrisade..
The special organizations respon-
sible for these arrests is known as
the Brigade OF Aces" 1t is head
ed by NJ. Ducrocq, director of what
is known as the judicial police
The actual working head of the or
ganization is NJ Faralicq. a police
commissary. ranking something like
a New York police inspector. He
has under his orders fifteen briga-
diers and twenty-five inspectors
who, before being accepted. must
have served in that rank in the or
binary police force for at least eight
years.
In addition to this force there arc
other special organizations or brig
AIDES. Thus, one takes care OF GRIM
inals who work in the streets steal
ing from automobiles, delivery wag-
ons and so on. Another brigade
looks after the sellers ef drugs. Stfn
another limits it's action to bands OF
high class international criminals,
known to the police of half a dozen
capitals. One of the latter arrived
in Paris q few days ago from Brus-
sells, He went in a taxi to a hotel
and registered. A room was az
signed to him. When the belIhop
opened the door for the guest to
enter, a detective greeted him from
the inside. Within an hour he was
speeding back to the Belgian from
tier.
