 Out

United States federal prohibition officers have been busy throughout; the past week, according to an an- nouncement made yesterday after noon by N. l.. Pierce, agent In charge.
 Wholesale raids throughout the district netted the department 50 stills for the week. with a total ca pacity of approximately 10000 gal Ions of whisky. These stills ranged in capacity from 60 gallons for the metal stills to 400 gallons for the box stills.
 Approximately 500 gallons of whis- ky was poured out by the officers during the week, and about 25.000 gallons of mash destroyed, which would, according to estimates, have increased the whisky made for the week to about 1,500 gallons for the stills raided.

Pierce, approximately 12,000 persons have been deprived of their Christmas cheer as result of the efforts of the officers for the week.

AWARD AUTO CLUB PRIZES THIS WEEK Thousands of Words Have Been. Sent to Contest
 Headquarters

"On account of the tremendous number of contestants who have sent in words made from. the letters in the word 'automobile,' for which the Birmingham Automobile club has of- fered IT prizes. Mrs. Mansfield La- them, chairman of the judges com mittee, and her assistants, have been fairly swamped,' said Charles C.. Davis, president of the club. Prizes probably will be awarded this week.
 Hundreds and hundreds of an- swers have been sent in, including words that nobody ever heard of obsolete words, Greek, Latin, French and Italian words, which, of course, are barred from the contest, and 1t has been a strenuous Job to even look over the lists, not to speak of picking out the prize winners.
 Some of the lists are really very interesting, containing words which few would ever imagine could be made from the letters in the word 'automobile,' and 1t has been in- structive as well as amusing in some cases. One thing 1t has shown and that Is that a great deal of study anu tiinc anu tuOukut nave Dtcu placed upon the contest, which de- velops an ambition on the part of the contestants to do some very good spelling as well as dictionary study.
 Boys and girls of the high school, as well as grown-ups. have entered the contest, and there have been peo- pie who have entered that you'd never imagine would take any in- terest whatsoever in such contest. all of which has been a great pleas ure to the Automobile club, since it has given people something whole- some to be interested in.
 Mrs. Lathem and her associates are hard at work on the lists now and we had hoped to be able to an- nounce the prize. winners today, but on account of the volume of work attached to 1t the IF prize winners will have to be announced at a later date-some time early this week, we hope"
