prohibition law upon the Democratic

Hylan.
While many blame Gov. Miller and the
Republican Legislature for drying up the

the street Is beginning TO express a re-
sentiment against the Hylan adrninistra-
tion for the way in which the law is be-
ing enforced. Tammany is in a quandray.

Enrlght was certainly a fine fellow and
no man on the Lords gren earth could

bition enforcement movement"
Mr.. Bryan declared he was enthusiasts

Commissioner Enright, because he had
reason to believe that if Father Knicker-
booker couldn't get a drink every city in
the country which has had many wet spots
since national prohibition went into ef-
fect would surely follow suit.
do you think a popular vote IN this
State would bring about a repeal Of

asked.

people Of the Empire State would roll

Some children grow too quickly

The blood becomes overtayed by

Red corpuscles are those little red

The Presidents remarks at York
town were, in part, as follows:
Fellow Americans: The name of
old Yorktown has ever held for Amer
leans a significance unlike that Of any
other rame in our annals. On this
historic peninsula were conducted ma
;nr operations in our struggle for IN
dependence and our war for national
unity. A few miles away, across the
river, was made at jamestown the
first permanent settlement of our race
on this continent, while your historic
Yorktown itself was one OF the very
carlyest settlements.
Here, hundred and forty years
ago today, Washington accepted the
surrender which meant at last the
freedom of the colonies, the establish
ment of national independence, the
assurance Of this great experiment in
popular government which we have
since conducted. Here came the vic
tory which answered the colonial as
pirations, but which left them spent
and confused in the chaos of their
triumph Here came the great turn
ing point in history, old world and new
which first revealed that freedom
needed the agencies for its preser-
vation. The marvel is not that the
war had succeeded; the stupendous
thing is that out of the varying con-
dtions. conflicting ideas, and threat
cniag ieaousies the victors were able
to unite in laying the foundations on
which we continue to build with full
confidence today. Surely a God-giv-
en- destiny must have inspired and an
Infinite hand assisted in directing.
1t is good to dwell in the atmos
Dhere OF historic Yorktown and TO re-
call the lessons Of the immortal Wash
ington, because our own feelings OF
devotion are thereby emphasized. We
could not wish ours to be other than
y forward looking republic, but we
will fail in coming to the supreme
culfillment if we do not recall the be-
ginning. and the unaltcrable fOun-
