Amendment on Ballot.

The people of the state of Ohio at
the November election, will vote on
a state Constitutional amendment t,
lcgalize the manufacture and sale Of
beer.
The state supreme court today or
dered Secretary of State Smith to
place the proposal on the ballot in a
mandamus action brought by the as
sociation opposed to prohibition, spon-
sors of the amendment, after the Sc
cretary had refused to certify the
amendment for a vote. The Anti
Saloon League will appeal to the
United States supreme court.
The secretary of state and refused
to enter the proposed amendment on
the ticket on the ground that if
adopted, it would be without effect,
in view of the operation of the
Eighteenth Amendment and would
only entail an expense upon the state
in submitting it to the voters.
The court, by a five to two vote,
held that the the secretary of state is
without authority to bar the proposal
from the ballot if petitions asking
for it's submission to a vote are valid.

CHANGE IN NAVAL INSTRUCTION
Elementary and Technical Subjects to
be Taught by Correspondence.

Lieutenant Kemp C. Christian Of
the Navy Recruiting Station, custom
house building, New Orleans, announ-
ces that a radical change in the in
struction Of men in the Navy has been
made by Secretary of the Navy,
Denby. Not only have all trade
schools been re-opened but every man
who enters the Navy has the option
of taking course of study covering
elementary and technical subjects IN
what is known as the y. S. Navy Edu-
cation Study Course.
These courses cover elementary and
technical subjects and are designed to
make the Navy personnel reach its
highest efficiency by becoming ade-
uuately trained in it's technical duties.
It it well understood that certain
percentage of the men have not the
preparatory training necessary to the
mastery of technical courses, and to
supply this background, a few gener-
al courses covering mathematics
(arithmetic, algebra, geometry, cal
culus), English, history, spelling and
penmanship are included.
It has been found that experience
alone is slow teacher. TO learn to
do solely by doing and find the best
way through by trail and error is a
wasteful procedure.
The courses are built on the cor
respondence school plan and study
shall be done by the self instruction
method under the supervision of otfl-
: GERS detailed for educational duties,
who will lend assistance when needed
and issue lessons, correct papers and
assign marks. Work accomplished
shall be entered in the mans service
record.
The following is typical of express
sions by naval officers:
at is just as much the duty Of
officers to educate men for out trades
as it is to train and drill them at sta
tions. Unless we both educate and
train green men in our trades, we
cannot keep our mechanisms in con-
dition for battle or ready for war.
No amount Of training at battle sta
tion will keep our ships efficient unless
our men are also educated to handle,
care for and maintain our equipment -

How Better Than Pills?

The question has been asked. In
what way are Chamberlain Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic and
liver pills: Our answer is, thew are
easier and more pleasant to take and
their effect is so gentle that one
hardly realizes that it is produced by
medicine. Then, they not only
move the bowels but improve the ap-
petite and strengthen the digestion.
