GHOST or STRADlvARiuS
WALKS IN HAMBURG,

A Hamburg business man. Herr OIL.
haver, is reported to have discovered
a means whereby the most ordinary vi
olin and other wooden musical instru-
ments can acquire all the best qualities
Of tone Of the best old makes. The
London Times tells the story:
"Herr Ohlhaver is SO years Of age
and can neither play the violin himelf
nor has he had anything to do with
their manufacture. He claims that the
secret came to him by occult means
and occurred to him some time after
the ghost of Stradivarius had appeared
to him. This experience, according to
the Tageblatt, 10 not unusual in his
case. since Herr Ohlhaver has dabbled
in the occult for the last 80 years and
owes thereto various other inventions
he has made.
IF the same newspaper is to be be-
lieved. when the Dutch violinist Van
der Ber recently played before a pri-
vate audience q piece upon Cremona
violin and then upon a cheap violin
treated by the Ohlhaver treatment The
audience was unable to notice any dif-
ference ia the beauty or fullness ~
tone in the two. instruments. Private
tests Of the discovery are also stated
to have been made by several distin-
Euished musicians. including Herr
Nihsche."

GUINEA PICS bA[K

Rodents Do Not Fancy Tasting
Drinks of Novice
Brewers.

Boston.-(Correpondence of the AS
sociated Press. because guinea pigs
have been found to accept the Volstead
act literally and turn their furry backs
to alluring home brew the little animals
which are raised here for test purposes
are reported to have deprecated in
value almost 100 per cent.
It was the fond belief Of home brew
makers some time ago that If they tried
their amateur productions on the
guinea pig, human life and digestion
might be saved The guinea pig had
proven satisfactory subject for sci
entific tests and according to their
reasoning if the sensitive animal sur
vived their brew it was ripe for human
consumption. If the pig died, it was in
a good cause, and the brewers tried
again to make liquor fit to drink by
man and beast.
Pigs is pigs" but the guinea variety
is more rodent than pig and have been
found to value their lives above the
conviyial compensations of liquor samp-
lers. Those who have tried their
brews on the guinea pigs have found
that no amount of coaxing can bring
the sagacious rodents to the flowing
bowl of kitchen-made drugs. They SUBJ
nit to the administration of strange
drugs and serums in the interest of sci
ence but anything alcoholic is abhor-
rent to them.
Thousands of purchases were made
when it was reported that guinea pigs
could test the margin of safety in un-
sampled contraband connections. Now
they are drug on the market, ready
to be doled out to hospitals and sci
entists for use in routine experiments.

MUST USE ENGLISH

A bill has passed the house in
the South Dakota legislature which
requires that public school instruc-
ton shall all be in the English
language. No other language can
be substituted in any way. The
American legion is supporting the
measure.
This is a movement along the
same line as the one requiring that
all publications be in the English
language. We hear much about
Americanization in these days. The
sentiment is growing in the United
States that we cannot carry big
ger load of people who live in Am
erica and who do not become Am
orleans. So the proposition is up
to stop all immigration for one
year or more. Such action would
only constitute makeshift. It
does not establish a policy to cure
the dangers that CONFRONT Us.
The cure must come in the first
place by keeping out altogether
those foreigners who are entirely
Objectionable. Eventually we will
be driven to another conclusion.
After person comes to the United
States he must be compelled within
a reasonable time to acquire the
essential elements of American cit
izenship or go back to the coun-
try from whence he came. Desired
results can hardly be brought
about if we allow the foreigner to
have schools and publications US
ing any other than the English
language.
