the Century roof and a standard vau
deville headliner for number OF
years.
The third big feature will be the

Announcing that the fight of the
American Legion for adjusted COM

ford MacNider, national commander
of thta organization, declared in a
formal statement that "repudiation
Of those who have defended the ma

Those men now in congress-" he
said, who are fighting for their
honest convictions in carrying out
what those they represent would
wish, can be assured that the SER
vice men and women-and we rep
resent whole generation-will not
forget. We are to prove that the
peoples will must be carried out.
And We shall continue to fight to

CAROL SAVAGE. Editor in Chief

an able discussion showing what
thrift is, why it is necessary, and
the need of beginning to save money
early in life. Many thrift sayings,
mostly taken from "Poor Richards
Almanac" were quoted, such as
"Silks and satins put out the kitchen
fire." II tbs hard for an empty bag
to stand upright" "Save your
money and keep your word"
The pupils of the eighth and sew
enth grades are considering the ad-
visibility of beginning a school saw
ings campaign in which each pupil
will be urged to save money that he
has earned, and put it in school
savings account in local bank.
The pupils of grades five, six,
seven and eight devoted the last
hour Of Friday to cleaning up the
school grounds. Each grade elected
director general as follows:
Eighth grade, Frances Otis.
Seventh grade, Bobbie Rossier.
Sixth grade, Theodore Moore.
Fifth grade, Walter Blattner.
While the pupils were thus en-
gagged in cleaning up the school
grounds, teachers meeting was in
progress within the main school
building.

DRUGS SMUGGLED
IN CUNNING WAYS

RANGOON, Burma.-The drug
smugglers of India and Burma,
through long years of experience,
have developed finished system of
operations which has little resem-
blance to the more or less crude and
hit or miss methods of rum runners
in the United States.
The men who finance the SNUG
Cling of drugs, says R. X. Anderson,
superintendent of the Burmese ex-
else department, are to all appear
ances respectable, well-to-do mer-
chants, with fourishing businesses
in piece goods, rice or timber which
hide their real occupations as traf-
fickers in opium, cocaine, morphine
and hemp drugs. These men do not
handle the drugs, but leave the de-
tails to hosts of underlings. II an
underling is arrested, fined, and sent
to jail, his principal pays his fine,
gives him his salary, and supports
his family while he is in prison.
"That a certain man is a snug
gler is well known to authorities, !"
reports Mr.. Anderson. "In fact the
suspect will cheerfully admit it. He
knows that he cannot be touched
unless the contraband is found in
his possession"
The chief source of protection to
smugglers is the accessibility to
bribery Of those who are charged
with the duty Of preventing smug-
Cling. They can make more money
by failing to suppress smuggling
than by suppressinp il.

UNIVERSITY NEWS
Correspondence
Especial to The Silver STATED

UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA,
RENO, Sept. 21.-Journalism is be-
ing taught this semester at the Uni
versity Of Nevada for the first time
in the history. Of the institution.
Due to increasing demands for this
work by students wishing to follow
journalism as profession, DR.. H.
W. Hill, head of the English depart
ment, has placed the new subject on
par with others required for a
major in English.
Miss Laura Amber, graduate
of the University of Nevada and
Columbia University, is in charge of
the work. 1t is her intention to
make journalism as practical as pos
sible. Each Of the Is or more stu
dents will correspond with one of
the papers in the state. The idea
is to send weekly university news
bulletins to these papers and thus
keep Nevada towns and cities in
closer contact with the university.
In time, the new course is ex-
pected to take larger place in the
university curriculum SO that the
different branches of journalism
may include not only newswriting,
reporting and editing, but also ad-
vertising.

Still Loquaeious-
Adloph Sundberg was brought to
the White Pine general hospital this
morning from the Anderson ranch
in Spring valley suffering from the
effects of a self-inficted bullet
wound in the head.
1t appears that the young man,
who has been working on the An
derson. ranch during the summer,
has been in poor health, resulting
in very respondent state of mind.
According to the report, he had just
finished eating dinner with the men,
but appeared to be in a respondent
mood. He picked up a .38-calibre
revolver, walked about forty feet
from the house, placed the muzzle
at his mouth, and fred. The bullet
passed through the mouth and came
out through the top of his head. He
was taken to the ranch house and
news Of the shooting was sent to
Sheriff Nicholson at Ely. It appears
that the young man never at any
time lost consciousness and even
walked to the car when the sheriff
arrived to take him to the hospital.
The condition of the unfortunate
young man, according to the report
from the hospital this afternoon,
was that he was still conscious and
was able to talk.-Ely Times.
