ANSWER FILED
IN PATENT SUIT
Starr Piano Co. Says Plain
tiff's Grant Invalid.

Denial Of violation of the patents on
player pianos owned by the Auto Pneu-
matte Company Of New York City and
an assertion that the patent owned by
the company is invalid, was the gist Of
the answer filed in Federal Court today
by the Starr Piano Company Of Rich
mond. nthe suit for infringement of
patent brought against it several weeks
ago by the New York concern
The complaint filed by the Auto Pneu-
matic Company charged the Starr Com
pany with infringement Of what IS
known as the Thomas Danquard patent,
taken ont In 1893, and asks an account
ing and an injunction against the de-
PENDANT to compel 1t to cause the manu-
facture of the player pianos now manu-
featured by it.
The Starr Piano Company, in its an
swer, sets forth that the patenr in ques-
tion is of no value because the subject
matter of it was in general use and was
generally known prior to the date on
which Danquard took out his. patent.
Furthermore, it is averred that 1t re-
quired no invention, but only ordinary
mechanical skill to produce the device
of the alleged patent.

THERE is MELODY IN A JUG
WHEN GILBERT BLOWS 4 TUNE

Have you an empty jug at home?
Then there Is melody in that old jug
although It is empty.
That's the tip handed out by Billy Gil
bert and his associated funmakers OF
the Joyland Quartette, which is an I'M
portant factor in The Girls from JOY
land"
Gilbert Fuckers up his lips and blows
several tunes into the neck of the empty
Jug This is a good comedy quartette
which possesses snappy comedy material
all clean and refreshing
The "Joyland'' show this season Is
divided into two acts, the first being di-
vided into a garden scene Of Spotiess
Town and a roof garden. The roof gar
den scene gives Gilbert n chance at the
ancient table stunt and the way Gilbert
dresses up the old stun. whips 1t into
shape, is one of the high spots of the
show. Beulah Kennedy does some neat
work as Gilbert's foil In this scene. This
scene closes with a travesty on grand
opera and it is very well done. rather
unique for shows Of this nature.
The second part opens with travesty
on the movies and this gives the prin-
cipals and the show girls a chance TO
appear in some pretty and expensive cos
tunes May Newman is seen as These
Borrow, who loves to vamp the men.
Beulah Kennedy appears as Mary PICK
wick and Bob Williams is cast as Buggy
Fairbanks. Rather lively fun this and
the comedy is above the average.
The song hit of the show, judging oy
the applause, is "Margie' as done by
Miss Kennedy. There are other numerous
song numbers and a dancing speciality

KNOW YOUR OWN
COUNTRY, THEME
Legion Would, Compel Study
of American History.

Declaring American educational insti
buttons are turning out graduates better
versed in the history and government of
Greece and of Rome than in those Of theic
own country, Henry ]. Ryan, chairman OF
the national Amerlcanism commission of
the American Legion, today announced
the Inauguration of n movement to make
the study Of American history and civil
government compulsory in all the pub
lie and private schools of every State III
the Union.
Mr.. Ryan characterized the American
system of education for citizenship as
now constituted as shameful and said the
full strength of the legion's more than
10000 posts all overd the country would
be thrown behind the plan to abolish
ignorance Of the American language and
ideals and of the history Of the United
States and its nation builders
The plan includes early presentation to
Congress Of a resolution urging enact
ment by each State Legislature OF a
statute making the study of these sub
Jects compulsory in all schools; requir-
| ing that ten minutes of the piples time
esch day be devoted to patriotic exer-
cises and making 1t mandatory upon the
authorities to keep the American flag fly
ing that ten minutes of the pupils time
permitting. State organizations of the
legion will press this legislation be-
fore their respective Legislatures.
THE American Legion conceives the
teaching Of American history and civil
government in our schools to be a fun
damental principle of. Amer1canizetion
without which all our efforts to make
good citizens can meet with only meager
Success" Mr.. Ryan said. While We do
not believe that patriots can be made
by compulsion, we DO believe that If our
boys and girls are given chance, created
| by law, which they are not now given. to
| study these subjects, the rising genera
ton will leave the schools Of America
with a greater knowledge of our ideals
and form Of government than was given
to the last generation. Much of the
anti-American sentiment now confronting
the nation can be directly attributed to
| ignorance OF our language, our history

SHRINKAGE NOTED
IN LIQUOR TAKEN
GustOdian Says Booze Given
Out on Order.

When Fred Keretey's home at ia
Douglass street was raided about a week
ago, the evidence In city court today
showed, the police and Federal officers
obtained eight pints of bottled in bond
Swastika whisky (bOttled in 1920, but
the police were able to produce only
FIVE pint bottles when Special Judge
James Lampkin ordered the liquor
brought in court today.
The evidence was that all the whisky
taken had been IN pint bottles and that
the quart bottle partly flied with liquor
was left at the Keretey home as it was
claimed by roOmer. The police claimed
they brought the full eight pints, and
at that moment Lieut.. L. B. FOrsythe,
who is custodian of the Oootlegger
whisky brought into police headquarters,
happened to be In court, and said: Il
can explain that; part of II was given out
on order"
That was the only explanation given
by Forsythe in court and Judge Lampkin
did not demand more. However, For
sGt@e volunteered the Information to 4
Sfeporter FIVE Of the pints of WHISKY were
on the table In the courtroom, one pint
had been taken by a Federal officer to
be held as evidence in the Federal in
vestigation Of the case and the other

bottle partly filed and was poured out
when some other whisky was destroyed"
From other sources it was learned
that one pint was mysteriousIy missing
between the time the whisky was taken
from Kereteys residence and its arrival
at police headquarters and that the Fed
eral officer got one pint, and that one
pint was given out by Lieut.. Forsythe
by mistake on an order from Prohibit
tion officer Charles Orbison," instead OF
whisky wherein the case had been dis
posed of by the court.
These orders have been arriving at
police headquarters, 1t is said, at the
rate Of twelve month, the liquor being
given out by order Of Mr.. Orbison for
medicinal purposes. A man by the
name Of Wyatt of Petersburg, Ind, ap-
peared at police headquarters a few
days ago and demanded a quart Of
whisky at once as he said be had to
catch his train. The captain in charge
refused to give him the liquor and told
him he should see the chief, even If he
did have an order from the Government
prohibition agent. Wyatt complained
that IL would cause him to miss his train.
In court today Special Judge Lampkih
stated that there was no evidence Of
sale against Keretey, and as he did not
believe the man was guilty of receiving
from a common carrier he dismissed the
charges.
