the Executive Mansion the prohibition
enforcement liberals are understood
to have decided on the strategy which
they will employ in making a stand
in the Senate against the Anti-Saloon
Leagues bill which has come over to
the Senate, having passed the House.
Tactics in the Senate will follow in
general those employed-unsuccess-
fully-in the House, it is said. This
means that the liberals will first try
to fasten a referendum amendment
to the Leagues bill. Failing that, an
effort will be made to substitute, as
an amendment to the Leagues bill,
less drastic measure.
Having by an unanimous vote prac-
tically shelved Senator France, the
Republican members of the General
Assembly are interested in the selec-
ton of his successor. There is an
abundance of material, but those re-
garded as most available are hesitat-
ing to try for the nomination because
of fear that the Senator's extensive
resources may be used against them.
That France will again offer him
self as a candidate to the party that
has repudiated him is generally be-
lieved here.
There is some talk of asking the
leaders to call a conference imme-
diately after the Legislature adjourns
to formally read France out of the
party and then agree upon candi-
date in whom all party men have con-
fidence.

Knights of Pythias Notes of Interest.

Friday, March third, 1922. That
was the date. Put a wide, bright red
mark around it on the calendar of
your memory. Where? In the Cas-
tie Hall of Garrett Lodge No. 113,
Oakland, Md, of course. 1t was the
Blues" night, but no one felt blue
and they made a red letter night of
it. And what a crowd Most of the
slackers, the stay-at- homes and the
busy" ones were there, in addition
to the regulars and irregulars, and a
most gratifying crowd of out-of-town
brothers. In all, one hundred and
seven Knights were present. Very
few of the members knew that there
would be "dOings"-that part was
surprise to most. They came those
hundred seven, because of their 10y.
atty to the lodge, their interest in its
welfare and progress; each with the
feeling that his presence would fur
Their the cause and set an example to
others. And so they gathered.
The regular business of the lodge
was first in order, after which the

happened: Brother T. A. Gender made
a welcoming address in his usual hap.
py and impressive manner. The Met

and especially for this occasion, rem
dered selection and was forced to
respond to an encore. Brother Walter
W. Dawson assumed the perpendicular
and kept the audience in one contin-
uous roaring laugh with a speech re-
plete with witty stories bearing local
applications, but having, also, vein
of earnest Pythianism running thru
it. Brother James Bell followed with
an exhibition of his celebrated dance
specialties, giving a number of orig
inal steps While James was resting
the quartette gave another vocal selec.
ton and were again made to repeat.
Brother Bells bellows being again in
condition he continued the entertain
ment with a series of very humorous
representations and limitations. Last,
but not least, came the celebrated
farce-comedy-tragedy, performed by
the entire lodge, entitled, Watch Us
Eat" This is a little skit in which
the lodge has achieved a most envia-
Bile reputation and it has never been
performed better than on this occa-
sion. 1.-THE stars were all present, and
even the Moon, the properties unex-
celled and the stage hands adopts in
their several departments.
Throughout the evening music was
furnished by the Oakland Orchestra.
1t is not necessary to state that it was
good music, as it was up to this organ
lzation's high standard, and likewise
they were not niggardly with it. And
that's that, except for this-every
member left saying that he had had
the time of his life and the best in the
history of Garrett Lodge. The "Yel-
lows" were good, but the "Blues" put
it over rather shade better. And
the "Reds"-well, we are all from
Missouri and are watchfully waiting.
Eleven applications came in last
week, making a total of seventy-one to
date. Only Twenty-Five now needed
to make the goal we are striving for
and four weeks yet to do it. Every
body work.

Stars at Foul Line.

Oakland A. A. won the second of
series Of three games from the Amer
lean Legion Five of Terra Alta, West
Va, here on Tuesday night by the
score of % to 10. The game was one
of the fastest and most exciting of all
basket ball events staged here this
season.
The hall was packed to capacity
by rabid crowd of fans, large con-
tingent being from Terra Alta, and
interest was at fever heat through
out the game.
The first half ended II to IL, with
Oakland on the long end, and the Le-
gion Five were never in the lead at
any period, although they succeeded
in tieing the score once. The Oak.
land guards, Hanst and Bolden,
played Carrico and Parsons. Terra
Atlas star forwards, so well that the
former got but three field goals. Par
sons failing to register. The floor
work, passing and shooting of Walter
Hoyt was a big feature, the big CEN
ter caging six clean field goals and
two fouls. He was closely followed
by Rice, who Melted four goals. Hanst
and Bolden also scored dandy shots
from the center of the floor. Par
sons, of Terra Alta, demonstrated re-
markable ability at the foul line, net
ting ten out of fourteen trys. The
game was handled by Mr.. Roy Martz,
of Clarksburg, w. Va, whose work as
referee left nothing to be desired. He
kept the players moving at top speed
all the while and gave accurate and
square decisions. Among the many
good teams that have played here this
season, the Terra Alta Five stands
out unquestionably as one of the best
