LEGISLATION
 FOR PROTECTION OF MEN WHO WRITE

Copenhagen, July 26.-A new copy right bill is to be introduced by the Danish government. The present copy right act gives to an author and dra- matist unlimited rights in his own production during lifetime, and to his descendants unlimited rights until 50 years after his death. Thereafter the rights are "free,' and a publisher or theatrical manager can respectively publish or produce-his works without paying any authors fees.
 On behalf of its members the Da- nish Authors association has been az itating for revision of the copyright act. It insinuates that publishers and theatrical managers republish and make use of the works of authors who died more than 50 years ago be- cause no royalties are involved Thus the dead authors and playwrightS are, they say, being used in unfair com petition against living authors and dramatistS.
 The association demands that an organization of living authors and dramatists, and not the state, control the works of dead colleagues after the expiration of the 50-year period; that the rights should not then become free, and that it be empowered to decide to whom royalties be distributed.
 According to the Danish press the authors have succeeded ip making the government see their point of view, and MT. Appel, Minister of Education, has requested representatives of asso- citations of authors, dramatiSts, com posers and artists to become members of a joint committee to work out 2 bill to be put before the Rigsdag.
 Danish organizations are said to be working jointly in this matter with their colleagues in Norway and Swe- den, and similar bills are likely to be introduced in these countries.

MOUNTAINEERING A
 QUESTION OF AWE
 INSPIRED COURAGE

London, July 26-'Moutaineer- ing is not necessarily raShneSS, but is entirely a question of prudence and of courage, of strength and steadiness, and of a feeling for nature and her most hidden beauties, which are often awe-inspiring, but for that reason the more ublime- and to con'templative spirit the more suggestive"
 Sir Francis Younghusband, speaking before the Royal Geographical Socie- ty on the Mount Everest expedition,
 used the foregoing words to express the sentiment which has animated all those connected with the expedition, and then said they were written 33 years ago by a certain Father Ratti, who has now become Pope Plus NI.
 After describing what the expedition
 had accomplished Sir Francis said:
 '"The experience gained this year
 shows that skilled mountaineers are
 able to take those unskilled in high
 mountain craft to the highest alti-
 tudes. Godfrey Bruce had never
 climbed a snow and ice mountain be-
 fore. Yet under Finchs skilled lead
 erShip he was able to attain a height
 of 27,300 feet. And the Sherpa DOT ters, though they were practically un-
 trained to snow and ice work, were able, under General Bruce's Stimulat- ing influence, to carry loads up to 25,5O0 feet, some of them making the journey four times and so earning the unstinted praise of the best noun taineers.
 By careful organization and com bination of effort, using experience to 1 guide ineXperience, and by the dis | play of indomntable pluck on the l part of the highest climbers, the eX- petition has at a bound brought the record up from 24,6OO feet to 27,3OO feet and thus left only 1,70O feet to | be climbed before the crowning sum- init is reached.
 "The standard of human achieve nent has thereby been sensibly rais- 1 ed. And many another traveller, and many another struggler upward in every walk of life and in every coun- | try will be braced and heartened in remembering what Finch and Mallory, | Somerven, Norton and Bruce have | his year accomplished on Mount Ever | est. And this, to my mind, is in- comparably the most valuable result 1 of the expedition, and a result which i makes their efforts in the highest de- | gree worth while.'"

HAVE DARK HAIR
 AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody can Tell when you Darkeh Gray, Faded Hair
 with Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beau tifully darkened, glossy and attract i've with brew of Sage Tea and Sul- phur. Whenever her hair took on that dull,- faded or streaked appear ance, this simple mixture was ap- piled with wonderful effect. By ask ing at any drug store for '"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this old time recipe, improved by the addi- ton of other ingredients, all ready to use at very little cost. This simple mixture can be depended upon to re- store natural color and beauty to the hair
 A well known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage an6 Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- plied-it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to it's natl iral color and looks glossy. soft and beautifuI.-Adv.

GIRL PREACHER
 DEN0UNCES THE
 MODERN WORLD

'The world is hell bent and hell bound with jazz, flappers and lust on all sides" said Mary Agnes Witches tan, the 14-year-old girl preacher. in her first lecture in this city last night at the Berean Memorial church on East Main street
 Few preachers of no matter what renown have been able to excite such interest or to be responsible for such a large audience as filled the Berean church Hundreds of curiosity seek CTS came to the church simply to see the girl wonder and found that she was curiosity only to the extent that this child mind had grasped man sized facts.
 Miss Vitchestan fayed the conbin- ing of religious and materialst1c things, saying: ''The church isn't have gymnasiums in your church basements better be careful. The Judgment of God is at hand and l wouldn't like to be found in a church gymnasium or at a church social when Jesus comes. The church has material things of the world in His place."
 She is opposed to many of the things which the modern girl believes are really essential to life, powder and cosmetics, the modern dance and short skirts. Of the latter she said "I think short skirts not only are i'm modest but they lead to many things. Of course from a sanitary point of view, well and good. My mother, however wears long skirts and she is the healthiest and cleaneSt- person I know, and that's proof enough for me-"
 Miss Vitchestan has been scheduled to speak this evening at the Bethany church, in Stratford.

The forces of good govern ment won a sweeping victory in Stratford, yesterday, when all councilmen who had oppos- ed the popular will were re- called, save one, who is save I because certain ballots failed to be counted.
 The result is sweeping triumph for the town manager system of government, adopted some years ago by Stratford. statement heard on all sides in Strat- ford, last night. The recall election was a great success, five Of the coun- cilmen were busted and the one vote lead of the sixth will most likely be questioned.
 .'The defeated councilmen held the election, we did the voting," was the comment of Leroy S. Lewis, one of the leading lights in the fight to have the councilmen recalled. ''1 say they held the election. because they picked their own men for the different cleo tion positions. The most important thing, however, is that we did the Vot- ing.'
 Councilman Walter Keeling of the e:ghts district received a vote of 122 to 121, the one vote being sufficient to keep him from being recalled. Ru- mors of all kinds were floating around among the huge crowd in front of the town hall, all evening, to the effect that a large number of votes had to be thrown out and that one vote had bean registered three times. in Keel ing's district.
 Leaders of the Peop1Sfs General Committee said that the election of Keeling would very likely be ques- tioned. The vote by the districts is given below. Each voter was priv ileged to vote 'Yes'' or 'fNo' on the question of recalling his councilman n and also the right to vote for the candidate ''of the people"

 Immediately after the impromptu street parade, efforts were made to to have them sworn in by the town clerk. One of the councilmen and the town clerk could not be located, so the swearing in was postponed.
 Robert B. Turney, chairman or the council and councilman from the 3rd district is said to have conceded the election to Harold F. DeLacour at 5 o'clock in the morning. The others of his faction, however, hung on tlll almost the very last minute.
 Vito Benedetto, of the 4th district, declared before the final results had been announced eve can't tell until all the votes are counted. The retiring councilmen were busy "congratulating" each other before the town hall. If they had any feeling of disappointment, they made very great effort to hide them behind their smiles and joking. They all expect to be on hand at the meeting of the council Friday night.
 Councilman Stanton in reply to a question stated, Sure, l will be there. I am going to finish the job we'll" He was given some free advice by the bystanders.
 A very large crowd jammed the town hall and covered the sidewall; and portions of the road in an effort to hear the results of the election as they came in from each district The results were announced by Mod orator George H. Bateman. Bateman made a statement to the crowd in which he said that he was not announcing the election, but that | he was only giving the results of the | ballot counting. When asked why he | did not announce the voting as being an election, he referred to section , of the town charter.
 1 Section of the charter states ''The council shall be the judge of the cleo ton and qualification of it's own mem bers subject to review by the courts Robert D. Sammis, father of Coun-

cilman Sammis and known "the father of the town charter, man who knows the ins and outs of it" said that the section had no refer ence to a recall election and that the council members could do nothing more than to declare themselve, out of office.
 Harold F. DeLacour, successful candidate for election in the Third district, voiced the general sentiment of his party by saving. This is not a over d-fashioned political rule and as I did not work towards obtaining the office, I claim it is the peoples victory"
 An impromptu street parade was started soon after the results from all of the districts had been an- nounced. A procession of cars, their occupants waving red fre'' and blow ing horns, wended it's way up Main street, around Paradise Green and back, several times.
 The paraders were not marshaled into one big group, each group or
 district seeming to be wonderfully satisfied with their own successful ef- forts to make their noise heard in large part of the town.
 The pot in Stratford will simmer strongly and perhaps overflow in the next few days, but if it does not, the deficiency will probably be made up on Friday night at the meeting of the council. Almost everyone in the street voiced their intentions of being on hand for the expected ''hre- works at that time.
 There will be plenty of councilmen and eX-counci1men at that meeting | There will be five newly elected coun- cilmen, five retiring councilmen, one sustained councilman and three coun- | cilmen against whom no recall was
 made. There may be a bit of crowd l ing around the table for the first few | moments of the meeting. The crowds were orderly, no fires
 were caused by any of the red fire
 and the police officials declared | "Everything quiet, no excitement of
 any kind" The patrol wagon was
 used to bring in the ballot boxes from
 the five districts, the voting for the
 third district was done right in the ! town hall.
 Old-tinls residents of the town de
 clared that never in the history of
 Stratford had any such evening been
 known Other election nights, even | those in which the contests were l staged in all of the nine districts,
 were said to be of smaller drawing | power than that of last evening. 1 People from many of the sur
 rounding towns and cities were pres ent to watch with interest the pro- ceedings of the evening. At a late
 hour the crowds were still gathered
 in the streets tnlking they will talk for some time, of the mem orable happenings of the Recall Election, of July 18th.
