This makes, of course, the motion

places upon the industry definite

an interesting fact not generally
known that the third largest in

IF YOUR GIRL S GIVEN YOU
THE AIR READ THIS.


Did you ever love any che and
go through the anguish of not
having your love returned? In
all nature there is no suffering
more bitter and diabolical than
love spurned or love tolerated in d
kindly spirit, without being re-
ciprocated.
Rejected love has agonized both
sexes in ali generations of the
past. And it will continue agoRiz-
ing as long as humanity peoples
the earth.
About the finest thing that has
ever come to our attention along
this line, is the experience of Rod
ger Dolan.
Forty years ago, Rodger fell
deeply in love with a girl Of IS
She treated him kindly-promised
to be a sister to him-but as for
returning his love, that was i'm
possible. She simply did not love
him. And nothing could make her,
for love is emotional, not guidable
by the reason.
Rodger went through the tor
ments. He paled, grew thin, moped,
even limited darkly at suicide. This
latter worried his friends, since it
is no uncommon event for spurned
love to attempt to extinguish it.

Then the girl began falling in
love with another. This heaped

disappeared.
Forty years have slipped by. The
other day, Rodger returned to the
old home town. He tells what
happened:
81 hunted up my old fame and
called on her. And got the shock
of my ife. This former sweet
heart had mellowed with age. She
had retained much of her girlish
charm. But somehow she no
longer appealed to me. 1t was like
the bursting of bubble.
81 thought it over, back in my
hotel room. And, do you know, I

married. She had changed. And

LEADERSHIP LEADED BY
PROHIBITION FORCES.

The report that President Hard
ing has discussed with his cabinet
The matter of prohibition enforce
nent is very encouraging.
The difficulties Oh prohibition
enforcement have been principally
due to the lack of leadership which
would have unified and inspired
the entire executive branch of the
government in a determination that
me majesty of the American law
should be upheld.
There has been no such leader
ship up to this time. The Anti
Saloon League cannot provide it,
neither can the Methodist Board of
Temperance, the w, C. I. L., the
President Board of Temperance,
or any other voluntary organiza-
ton.
During the recent war, Presi-
dent Wilson was the spokesman
and the exponent of the American
cause, and the people responded to
his leadership. During the Civil
War, the Northern and Southern
leaders left TO doubt that they be-
iieved in the cause for which they
were contending and that they
were ready at any time to satisfy
their followers as to the justice of
hat cause. Abraham Lincoln did
not say, The North may be right,
but we are in this war whether or
not, and we have got to see it
through"
George Washington was just as
ardent a patriot as the humblest
soldier in his command, and the
same is true of that noblest of all
Southern leaders, Robert E. Lee.
The people should be told from
a place of responsibility and power
that the prohibition movement was
the elimination of century of
effort, during which majority
Of the American people were con
WINGED that the constitutional
amendment was achieved by order
" processes which cannot be chal-
lenged without challenging the
foundations OF our government
that the policy is a correct one;
that the men who are opposing the
enforcement of the Jaw are just as
much the enemies Of the country
as was Won Hindenburg during
the recent war; and that the exec
utive expects the cooperation of
every good citizen to the end tn;
The law may be vindicated.
That kind Of leadership will wax

ty Of the citizens of this country
want the law enforced. They are
ready to respond in any way when
called upon, but that response will
not be given to an adequate degree

We, want to suggest that if Mr.

COMMENT

In 1892, Chicago man sued an
other for $500. The case dragged
along for so years, the litigants
spending over $4,000 in appealing
to higher courts, or 20 times the
amount at stake. A judge now
dismisses the suit, unsettled. Both
iitigants are dead. So is one of
the original lawyers. No one is

PROF. MASTERS, CLAIR
 VOYANT, IN LAWS TOLLS

William E. Garland, locally known as Professor Masters" clairvoyant, psychic, and favorite reader of the dim and mystic future for the overly curious here in Prescott for the last four or five years, has been stripped of the mystery surrounding one of his profession and stands exposed as a common grafter, according to H. M. Van Denburgh, clerk to the United States attorney at Phoenix.
 Professor Masters is indicted in the federal district court at Phoenix for having used the mails to defraud in the furtherance of a scheme to de- fraud. He was arrested in Los An geles and is unable to furnish bond. Any bond accepted will call for his appearance before the district court at Phoenix, the last of November, &C., cording to information received at the United States attorneys office.
 The indictment alleges that "Pro- lessor Masters" has been conducting readings through the mails and has received fees for these readings. Pro- lessor Masters is said to promise to happy marriages, obtain ones every wish, find lost treasures and many other helpful things. The in- dictment charges that he is unable to do any of the things promised.-Pres- colt Courier.
