Discretion and yalor

Several years ago while down in liquor county" said Charles M. Sartain, q had oc- casion to run across one of the many ticklish situations that occur in the life of every pro- hibition officer. It so happened that and several subordinates were issued search war rant to conduct an investigation into the deal- ings of an old woman who owned small shack in a clearing in the forest quite distance from the main road who, it was believed, had in storage large quantity of whisky. The light of day was fading as we approached the shack, and knowing the irritable nature of the owner, we were somewhat hesitant in knocking on the door. However, after all these formal ities had been attended, we told the woman that we were authorized to search her house for whisky. She immediately replied in not any too kind tones that it would be waste of time on our part, finishing up with, thar's jest few ounces of alcohol in my house that I use fer camfire, and that's few ounces you'ns ain't goin' t tech After a thorough search of both rooms of the shack we found only the few ounces she spoke of, which she used for camphor. I was undecided what should do next, so I calmly strolled out of the shack, followed several moments later by my subordinates."

1t is pleasure to commend the work

that this great humanitarian service may

American people" - Samuel Gompers
(American Federation of Labor)
An appalling situation of suffering,
involving hundreds of thousands of peo-
pie who have been forced to flee from
their homes in the Near East and to seek
refuge in lands already burdened with
care, has emphasized to the peole of this
country that the American Red Gross is
our National Emergency Fund with
which to meet great crises in disaster.
The resources of the American Red Cross
must be annually replenished through
the roll call. This year the summons is
seconded by concrete emergency of the
kind that is ever liable to be precipitated
upon the world 1t is impossible for the
Red Cross to be dependent upon a public
appeal for specific objects, because when
eincrGcu1y and disaster face Us we have
no time to wait until funds can be raised
