of the sea.
When quarantine officials found
nothing of cargo or papers, customs

unfolded.
Twenty Chinese had bargained
with the owner Of the schooner, a
white man, for $500 apiece to take
them aboard and land them some
where on the American coast On
May last they set out from Havana,
twenty Chinese, two white men ana
a negro.
When the food supply ran low

promise and land them. He chased
them to their quarters. one night

took the schooner's only small boat
and abandoned the Mary Beatrice

days of waiting the Chinese, impelied
by the pangs of hunger, turned the
schooner toward land.
The mystery OF the seven missing

about them, pointed over the side.
He wouldn't say. whether they

Mr.. Babcock explained that both

bonds to connect up some work and
generally advance the good roads pro-
gram that 1923 and each succeeding
year may get its fair share of benefits
for the funds it provides. The largest
improvement mileages will be grading

''The aim of the good roads pro-

fairly as possible and it is believed
that the manner in which it has
brought results thus far should en-
title it to the continued confidence

Land, buildings and personal prop

its victory as well as war; also it has
duties as well as its sacrifices. He
urged respect for law. He said there
was tendency in the last few years
TO break the restraint of law. Laws
Were passed to be enforced Laxity
in law enforcement resulted in bad
morals. Without good morals any
country will go down. The Legion
aire should stand for law enforce
ment. If the law was bad law have
1t repealed but while it was operative,
enforce it..
Father Fearon urged every ex-Ser-
vice man to unite with the American
Legion and uphold its ideals. He
urged them as good citizens to ex-
ercise their right of suffrage and the
ballot. The vote of every community
would be increased some 80 to 40 per-
cent if all citizens voted.
He said any man who does not use
his right to vote should have this right
taken away from him.
Father Fearon deplored the fact
that so many ex-Service men failed
to hold the American Legion with the
reverence that the veterans of the
Civil War held the Grand Army of
the Republic. The American Legion
must carry on the work so splendidly
done by the G. A. R. Millions are
eligible to membership in the Ameri-
can Legion. AS an organized body
the ex-Service men can get what they
want and be a tremendous force for
good in the United States, and be a
bulwark to Americanism, while singly
they can accomplish nothing.
The address of Father Fearon con-
cluded the evenings entertainment.
