Dry Act Farce, Governors Told

White Sulphur Springs, w.
Va, Dec. 14.-Prohibition and
the Ku Klux Khan were consid-
cred prominently at the four
teenth annual conference Of gov
errors at sessions today and to-
night.
Governor John NJ. Parker of
Louisiana, in an address late to-
day, declared prohibition is a flat
failure and denounced the ku
Klux Khan. He was joined in his
attack OH the secret organization
by Governor Olcott of Oregon
who referred to the khan in an
address tonight as "a national
menace"
The Louisiana governor said
prohibition is almost farce, and
it is infinitely better to abolish
the saloon, permit light wines
and beer to be sold and have the
government regulate the manu-.
facture and distribution of liquor
with penitentiary sentences fo'
those who defy clear and explicit.
liquor laws.
The prohibition question and
the Ku Klux Khan, Mr.. Parker
said, are black clouds threaten
ING law and order.
He asked that the governor

Peace on the Hearth
), 1922. Western Newspaper Union.)

co, 1922 Western Newspaper Unton) THE Christmas bells were making A their glad announcement again, but Toby Fowler was not in sympathy with them. "Peace on earth !" said he, "What peace have 1 on earthF'
 It wasn't that his worldly affairs troubled him, but man may have a good job and a sum in the savings bank and yet find no peace in his house, and this it was that dimmed Mr. Fowler's holiday season and made it's gladness clash in his ears, there was no peace upon his hearth.
 And, as a troubled home is like a rolled spring, or a splinter in the hand, sending on its turbid disturb ance or it's pain, so there was no peace in his world, upon his earth.
 The blame seemed to point to Mrs. Fowler, as though the difficulty might be in her disposition or her indisposi- tion. There is a natural discontent that nothing can cure, a fault-fnding ambition that nothing can satisfy, an ingratitude that never is thankful, a nagging nature that is never pleased, and his wife appeared to be possessed of all these in the estimation of Tobias.
 But the root of the trouble lay deeper than the mans understand ing of. it. It was a lonely house. It was a silent house. It was an order ly house. There was no child in it.
 And, as many discoveries and cures have been accidental. so MT. Fowler blundered upon the remedy for his troubles rather than devised 1t. For 1t was for his own comfort rather than with the hope of stilling the home tempests that he brought in a lovely little boy on Christmas day and announced that he had adopt ed him.
 He had been too uncertain of ap- proval in the matter to have any conference about it first at home, but, after her first expressions of sur prise, his wife did not leave him long in doubt, for the child found a place in her arms as one who belonged there. Not only to him, MT. Fowler felt, but to them a child had been given.
 It is amazing what solutions of trouble a little child can bring, what response meets it's dependent claims upon love, what joy ministers to its development, what peace is felt even amid it's clamors for our self-forget- fulness! With a happy satisfaction in the midst of all it's new cares peace had come to MT. Fewler's hearth and to his earth.

 Unless we can restore control of our government to the people, disast- CT will come upon us. I believe that all good things are possible and 1t is understand the issues and who love freedom and humanity will make manifest their determination.
