DIRECTOR RUTTER

Had Charge of Reorganization of Phil

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-FederaI
Prohibition Commissioner r. A
Haynes announced today that s. F
Rutter, who has had charge of the re-
organization of the Philadelphia pro-
hibition office, and pending the ap-
pointment of a permanent director
will be disassociated from the Phila :
delphia office after today. The COM
missioner said:
MIR. Rutter reports that the recently
appointed director, Mr.. Davis, has a
good grasp on the situation and, with
the splendid organization that has
been built up under Mr.. Rutter, his
services will no longer be needed in
the Philadelphia office.
"Mr Rutter is one of the most ex-
pert field supervisors in the United
States and will again resume his reg
ular duties appertaining to that desig-
nation. The staff of men who have
been Mr.. Rutter's assistants will con-
tinue for the time being TO be Mr.
Davis assistants, and all of the poll
cies, as developed under Mr. Rutter
will be continued under Mr.. Davis

ord effected under Mr.. Rutter a won
derful one, but the effectiveness OF

ing results.
mot including over 5S5,000 gallons
of alcohol released on forged permits
as a basis of computation. during the
three months from Oct. II to Jan. 81
under Mr.. Rutter, as compared with
the three months Immediately proceed
ing. from July 1 to Oct. IT, there was
a decrease in release of alcohol of IL
per cent. During the three and one
half months preceding Mr. Rutter's
administration, there was 500 per cent
more whiskey withdrawn than during
the three months Immediately follow
ing when Mr.. Rutter was in charge.
"One of the most gratifying features
connected with the new order of things
is the fact that the leading drug and
pharmaceutical associations of the
state have gone on record as being
greatly delighted with the new order
of things and, now that the organiza-
ton is functioning so satisfactorily,
there seems to be no reason why Mr..
Davis administration shall not con-
tinue on the same plane and the Phila-
delphia office be one of the outstanding
offices of the country in point of eff
flcieRcy, honesty and real service"

MARDI CRAS SPIRIT
MANIFESTS ITSELF
Street Dance and Drill Staged on NAL
Tory Court Last Night Was
Well Attended.

The streets of Pensacola took on the
real Mardi Gras aspect last night.
Workmen were busy all during the
day arranging flags, decorations and
lights all along Palafox street and
when dark had fallen last night and
the lights were turned on, the carnival
spirit began to manifest itself. The
arrangement of the lights and decOra-
tons bordering Mallory court VISA
very effective, and when the merry
couples assembled there to taAe part
in the street dance staged by the Dok-
kies for the benefit of the Carnival
association, much merriment followed.
Not only was the dance enjoyed by
a large number, but the drill put on
by the Brigands, all wearing their
costly costumes of varied hues and
shades, was a feature viewed with
much interest by the crowds of spec
tators that thronged around the drill
grounds.
The carnival setting is now COM
plete. The many events that have
taken place during the past week has
gradually caused the joyous spirit to
be awakened among the fun-Iovers of
the city, and with the numerous other
events to take place within the next
few days, it is reasonable to expect
that it will be really land of mirth
and a domain of merriment over
which King Priscus XVIII will rule
when he is restored to the throne at
the grand coronation ball on next
Tuesday night.

tuberculosis was 1873 per cent of 1O0,-
600. In 1920, after four years of this
work, the death rate was 1O4 and 80
of 100000. This means that had the
death ratio of 1915 continued, by 1920
there would have been 1900 deaths,

difference of many hundreds of lives

WIFE WINS HUBBY
BACK BY VAMPING
Ethel Clayton Scores Hit in New
Comedy Drama, "Exit the Vamp."

Is it possible for a wife to vamp her
husband? Can she sufficiently conceal
her identity by the aid of cosmetics to
prevent recognition and delude her
husband into the belief that she is the
other woman with whom he is tenn
porari1y infatuated?
In her new Paramount picture exit

feature at the Isis theatre tomorrow,
Ethel Clayton answers these questions
emphatically in the affirmative. In
fact, she proves that a wife who is

another woman, may win him back
