Mail Check Oh Liquor
Withdrawals Abolished
Personal Submission of Permits
TO Day or Assistant Expect
ed 10 Stop Frauds

The registered mail method OF OBJ
tanning confirmation for liquor with
drawal permits was abolished vester-
day by Ralph A. Day, Federal Pr, hibi
ton Director. as first step toward
making impossible the use of forge
papers to divert stimulants into boot
logging channels. One former regis
tered mail clerk at the enforcement
office is already under Indictment for
collusion in these frauds, and it was
announced recently that several post
Office clerks were under suspicion. Ac-
corHng to the now system, warehouse
owners will be required to send repre-
sentatives to the Directors office TO
obtain personal confirmation of each
permit from either Mr.. Day or his chief
assistant.
! The forged withdrawal permit frauds
which this measure is intended to stop
recently have been estimated as bioh
as S20,000,O 900 a month. Forgery, brih-
cyy, extortjon, mail fraud and violation
OF the Vostead act are alleged to figure
in the steps by which counterfeit With,
drawal permits arc presented to ware
houses and fraudulently confirmed
without at any time passing through
the Directors Office.

PEARL WHITE SEEN IN
 SUPERB PARIS GOWNS

Pearl White, the famous star of William Fox photoplays, spent sev- eral weeks in Paris during her vaca- tion in Europe last summer. When she returned she brought with her number of superb gowns fashion ed by the celebrated makers, Paouin and Poiret. These gowns were ere ations made in advance of the sea son-foreshadowing what later were to be placed on the market.
 Two of these gowns-one of them for evening toilet-are worn by Miss White in Any Wife" her latest Fox picture, which will be shown at the Ideal theatre tomorrow. The even ing gown, of black, with an abund- ance of lace and head ornamentation, is sufficiently striking to arrest the admiration of any spectator, man or woman-but especially woman.
 "Any Wife" is an intensely dramat- ic photoplay, having as it's basis the perils attending fortunate woman's unfortunate proneness to discontent with her lot as lacking in excitement and social gaiety.

DOG HERO SAVES
 HOME FROM FIRE

Rex" the big collie of W. A. Nance, manager of the Grand Thea tre, IS the hero of the Nance family today and will hold a place of honor Tn the family circle as long as he lives. It was Rex who shortly be- fore 5 o'clock this morning saved thelr home from complete destruction by fire and possibly the members of the family from injury or death.
 The dog has sleeping quarters on the back porch of Mr. Nance's home at 1l5 Center street, but also spends some of his time under the floor of the house, passing through a man hole in the underpnning at the rear. On sleeping porch on the opposite side of the house, where the family were asleep Mir. Nance was aroused by Rex jumping up on the wall of the porch and barking loudly. As soon as he lifted his head he smelled smoke and rushing through a bedroom he opened the door of the living room to find it enveloped in flames and smoke. After turning in an alarm and seeing to the safety of his family, MT Nance and his son succeeded with buckets of water in checking the blaze before the fire department arrived
 Fire from an open fireplace, which either rolled out or popped out on the floor started the blaze, Mr. Nance said When the fire had burned through the floor and the embers were dropping under the house it was evidently discovered by the faithful dog, who awakened Mir. Nance. The entlre house and it's contents would undoubtedly have burned had he slept few minutes longer, said MT. Nance. All the furniture in the room was practically destroyed, large space in the floor was burned out and all the woodwork in the interior of the room was burned. The damage was estimated at $500 to the contents and about the same amount to the res ldence, which is owned by Dr. Cecil Il. Dickerson. The loss is covered by insurance.
