London.-England needs new law
regulating public houses and places
Of entertainment, say the owners Of
London's hotels and dance halls, who
have banded together to obtain less
stringent laws in the matter Of closing
their places.
The present law, which is adhered to
vigorously by the authorities, was
passed in the reign Of George II in
1851, and requires that the dance
places Of all classes close at the stroke
of midnight.
The hotel and cafe proprietors viii
ask the London county council to draw
up a new law to be presented to pariia-
ment, and they have obtained the
backing Of the Brighter London"
movement committee which is seeking
to make London q rival Of gay Paris.

The prohibitory laws of Maine
are adequate, but they should he
better enforced to bring up the
standards" is the opinion of Senator
Herbert A. Clark of Jefferson. one
of the newest holders in the Maine
Senate of the kennebec Journal ac-
cident policy. Senator Clark is rep
resenting his county for the second
time in the Maine Senate.
Senator Clark, who is a staunch
supporter of prohibition. is of the
belief that further legislation is not
necessary but that the present Office
holders. who have been appointed to
enforce the liquor laws. should at
tend to their duties in the strictest
sense of the word. He is chairman
of the Temperance committee in the
present session of the Maine Senate.
In talking with Bert Townsend.
representative of the LySle System
who is managing the Insurance
Campaign, Senator Clark declared
he appreciated the benefits of an &C
Cid"nt insurance policy especially
from the standpoint of the auto
owner. Mr.. Clark maintains a fine
farm in South jefferson. where he
was born and whore he has lived all
his life. He spends considerable
time in automobiing. Mrs. Clark
is also Il native of jefferson. They
have three children. Harold. aged
- years. a graduate of Shaw's Bust
ness college and now employed at
the State Library, Waldo H.. aged
IA years, who is finishing his last
year in grammar school and who
will enter Cony high school next fall
and Buclah T., aged ten years.
1t was in the little Trask school
house that Senator Clark learned
his three RS. He graduated from
jefferson high school and for sew
eral years after taught in Jefferson
and surrounding towns. For over
% years he has been a member of
the United Baptist church and choir
at South Jefferson. Mr.. Clark. being
somewhat of a singer. which he
modestly admits, enjoys the best in
music. Besides being q vocalist,
Mr.. Clark played for some time in
the jefferson band. which was a
most decided asset to all local events
including Memorial Day. Fourth of
July and special field days.
A farmer all his life and being
what his friends call successful, Sen
ator Clark has been able to enjoy
farm in South jefferson. besides
cludcs the quarters for the South
Jefferson post office.
Augusta is one, clean city" was
the splendid tribute which Senator
Clark paid to the seat of Names
government. He was not of the
same opinion. however. in regard to
some other Maine cities.
The Near East Relief situation is
a source of much interest to Senator
Clark. He expressed himself as be-
ing much interested and pleased be-
cause of the great work which the
United States is doing to relieve the
sufferers in the Near East
Senator Clark has held several
town offices. being chairman of the
board of sclectmen and also chair
man of the school committee. which
shows the esteem in which he is
held by his townsmen.
