LIGHTS EXTNGUISHED CAUSE
DANCE TO ADJOURN

During the progress of the dance
given Friday night at the Masonic
Temple by the Bourbon Dancing
Club, some mischevious or malicious
person cut the wires furnishing cur
rent to the building. The dance was
stopped while various makeshifts
were resorted to for illumination
purposes, all unavailing. Finally
John M. Stuart, who was present,
rendered the use of the Stuart &
O'Brien warehouse, and the dancers
adjourned to that place.
Complaint was made to the police
Saturday morning regarding the
disorder and noise on Main street,
made presumably by those returning
from the dance. Unnecessary use of
motor horns, cat calls, yells, whistl-
ing, bowls, throwing pop and cocoa
bottles on the street, and other
forms of disorder marked the break
of dawn, much to the annoyance of
citizens who were trying to sleep.
There was no disorder whatever at
the dance, but the complaints made
after the dance were many and en-
phasized the fact more strongly that
there was something doing" in the
noise-making line.

ance.

GOLD ONLY IN BOYS MIND
Scottish Villagers the Victims Of Hoax
Which They Are Only Too
Willing to Forget.

The treasure hunt Of the villagers of
Darvel, Ayrshire, Scotland, was
prompted by boys hoax. Some days
ago a piece of paper was found con-
tanning a message in faded writing to
the effect that many years ago the
writer had buried vast hoard of gold
In the vicinity of the town. The ex-
act spot would be found indicated on
a chart which, it was stated, was con-
cealed in a Granny Of an old bridge.
After a minute search some young
men came across the chart, and soon
an immense crowd Of men and women,
armed with picks and shovels and 9TH
er implements, were feverishly digging
in an old quarry near the town, this
being the spot indicated on the chart.
The work continued a whole day, but
late in the evening, just when every
one was on the tiptoe Of excitement,
they received great shock. A mes
sage was received that the story Of the
hidden treasure had originated with
a boy who prepared the papers,
Drowned them before a fire to make
them look old, and then hid them. He
was we'll satisfied with his joke.

"Safety First"

Wrist watches are no longer a
novelty, but happened to see wrist
attachment the other day while wait
Ing for a train at the Union station
that attracted my attention. A young
man had a leather thong attached
to the handle Of his bag, while the
other end was securely fastened TO his
wrist. Noticing that was very much
interested In this unusual c0ntrivance,
he volunteered the following infOrma-
ton: ION two or three occasions,
while putting my bag on the floor to
purchase my ticket or to secure Pull
man accommodations, 1 have had peo-
pie attempt to pick up my bag and
walk off with it. OF course they i'm
mediately apologized and could not
accuse them Of stealing 1t, SO / hit
upon the plan of attaching it to my
wrist, from the time leave my apart
ment until / am finally seated in the
train. 1t is truly remarkable how few
people now attempt to take my bag

over the fact that a majority of the
legislature personally favors beer
and wine legislation.
An Obligation
Since it was the votes of these
drys, uniting with the solid vets,
that made the present situation pos
sible, the obligation clearly rests up
on these drys now to prevent weak
ening of the enforcement law or
adoption of memorials for beer by
making it plain that if such alcourse
be taken they will visit vengence
swift and sure upon the administra-
ton at the next election. The dry
La Follette-Blaine supporters owe
this to themselves and to the cause,
and we confidently believe they will
impress this fact upon the admins
tration. In fact, we know that they
are even now doing so. AS con-
sequence, we believe that the vets
will find the governor as powerless
to aid them as he proved to be in
the last legislature.
( Such men as Senator Severson and
Senator Skogmo differ widely on the
economic program, but there will be
perfect unity between them that
there shall be no weakening of pro-
Inhibition or its enforcement. If
now the drys will rally to the sup
port of their representatives and
demand that they stand by these
dry leaders, regardless of faction,
for the salvation Of dry enforcement
the present measure may not only
be saved but the appeal to congress
to Leagalize beer may be headed off.

RAISE BUGS TO FIGHT BUGS
Birds That Are Enemies of Fruit
Destroying Pests.

There is a quaint institution In Men,
tone, in the south Of France, known
as the Insectarium, where learned pro-
fessors are rearing various species of
bugs and other insects.
MentOne Is In the center of an I'M
portant fruit-grOwing district, and the
object Is to discover the best means OF
fighting those insect pests that prey
upon plants and ruin the fruit.
The orchards have suffered severely
through the ravages Of the mealy bug.
and the fruit growers were becoming
quite alarmed. Then experts discov-
cred that three other species of bug
are the natural enemies of the mealy.
So these are being bred and reared
and turned loose in the orchards as
allies Of the fruit growers.
The Institution is also breeding GER
tain species of ladybirds to destroy the
cochineal, an insect that plays havoc
with orange and lemon trees. These
ladybirds have been brought from far
Australia and California.
The institution is nothing less than
an up-tO-date insect farm, consisting
of large private house and an acre
of ground. In the laboratory are rows
upon rows of pitfalls and Jars, the
larvae of various insects which are
kept at a high temperature. In the gar
den are cages full of all kinds OF
creeping and flying pests.

SAYS VOTE NOT
REFLECTED BY ELECTION

MADISON, Oct. 2.-The Wiscon-
sin Edition of the American Issue
(oficial organ of the Anti-Saloon
League) speaking of the recent cleo
ton, will say this week that it does
not furnish the slightest gauge of
Wisconsin's sentiment on beer and
wine ;and perdicts that there will
be no weakening of the Severson law
and no appeal for beer and wine, de-
claring that Senator Severson, adj
ministrator leader, and Senator
Skogmob anti-administration leader,
will unite against all wet efforts.
They claim that the state is dry by
$4,000 majority. Their statement
is as follows:
While to a casual observer the
vets seem to have won sweeping
victory in the recent election in
Wisconsin, the facts are that the
result is not the slightest indication
of Wisconsin's sentiment on beer
and wine.
1t is true the Association Against
the Prohibition Amendment, The
Champion of Fair Play (organ of the
Retail Liquor Dealers), and the vets
generally supported John j. Blaine
for Governor and Robert M. La Fol
lette for U. S. Senator; but it is
also true that many w. c. T. U.
leaders, some ministers of the gos-
pei, Sunday school superitendents,
teachers and dry workers worked
tooth and nail for the same candi--
dates.
The La Toilette Blaine vote was
probably $50 wet, $3.50 dry. The
Ganfield-Morgan vote was practical
ly1O04o dry, which means that Wis
consin is against beer and wine by
approximately $4,000. About half
of the La Follette-Blaine members
in the legislature represent dry dis
tricts.
Mixed Oil and Water
We have in front of us letter
from dry woman who is an active
dry worker and a financial supporter
of the Wisconsin Anti-Saloon Lea
que. She says: "I am for La Fol-
lette, wet Or dry" Similar senti-
ments regarding La Toilette and
Blaine have come from all sorts of
drys Many of them said: eve are
dry, they are wet, but we are for
them" 1t is because of a union of
all of the vets and half of the drys
that the vets are growing today

Freshies of 1922
At last we are Freshies, without a

Cherishing fanny smiles and never

But all the time we are happy, very

We gayly look forward to the ap-
preaching years;
Just the least bit frightened, but
trimming with cheers;
Soon we will have climbed the lad

Oh, friends, don't you wish you were

day. She gave practical demonstra-

Palmer method of writing. At the
close of school, a conference was
