Jack McAuliffe, of Chicago, one of the
country's largest factory owners and
Supt Clarence Clark is trying to
make the stay of the trio as pleasant
as possible.
While here Col Houston, who is
probably the largest individual stock
holder in the club, gave out an inter-
esting statement as to future plans
out there. The very first step will be
the engaging in raising of choice beef

Feeney said that there was very lit tie difference between the cust toms of Ireland and America One can travel by motor or train in Ireland. When asked regarding the women of Ire land, Tr.

 FLYING SQUADRON

Indianapolis. Aug. so-A ten months campaign for better enforce ment of the prohibition amendment was begun today at NoblesvilIe Indina, by the flying squadron foun- dation, an Indiana corporation, formed under the guidance of the late J. Frank Hanly, former gover- nor of Indiana following the flying squadron campaigns of 1914 and 1915. After a swing through Indiana the three groups of flying squadron representatives will enter Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York in the order named and will close the ten months campaign in New England, Oliver w.
