DRY AGENTS To
Be QUICKER
WITH GUN
Rules to Be LiberaIized on Ac-
count of So Many Sud-
den Deaths.

More liberal Interpretation of pro-
hibition unit regulations governing
the carrying of firearms by dry
agents has been made necessary by
the increasing number of casualties
to the enforcement men, it was stated
at Federal prohibition headquarters
today.
Under existing rules, agents are
restrained from using revolvers until
an actual attempt is made against
their lives. The regulations call for
the fullest discretion to be used in
carrying and discharging firearms.
These restrictions, it was said,
are responsible for the large num-
Der of injuries received by agents.
The final straw came in. the form
of news today that Agent H. Mayo
Shugart. operating from the Rich
mond office, had been severely
wounded in attempting to arrest al
legged moonshiners at Victoria, Va.
Commissioner Haynes, it was re-
ported. is shortly to authorize agents
to protect themselves more fully, but
to continue to be discreet in shooting.
The proposed rule will be effective
largely in the rural moonshining
districts of the country, where strife
is particularly fierce.

FAIR EGYPTIANS
! STILL VEIL

Aware That Touch of Mystery
Makes Them More AIIuring
and 6eWitching.
: BY EDNA LEE BOOKER.
International News Service.

SHANGHAI, Feb. 23.-According
TO Mrs. Ernest Thompson Seton,
here following a tour of Egypt, the
beautiful. women of Egypt do not
wish to give up their wells, because
they realize that they are more al
Turing, bewitching and mysterious
with the veil than without it. =.
The Egyptian women OF all
classes are very fascinating, de-
clares Mrs. Seton. With their dark
eyes, clear olive compilations and
graceful carriage, they are more
striking than any other women ia
the world.
Active Politically.
Although they are taking a prom
inent part in the politics of the
country, they are not laying aside
their feminine charms to take on
the masculine ways of their hus-
bands.
No, indeed, the beauties of the
Mile have the wisdom of Egypt
back of them - and they are win
ming their way politically through
charms and brains rather than by
bomb throwing.
Mrs. Seton was amazed to find
the women of wealth highly edu-
Gated. They speak many Ian.
GudSeS ana carry on Inelr CONVEX
Sation in their gorgeous and lux
urtous salons in French. They wear
imported French creations and en-
Joy French cooking.
Queen stunning"
The present Queen of Egypt is a
stunning woman, who is looking
for an opening in her gilded cage.
According to Mrs. Seton, she has
never travelled, and her great am
bition is to see the Rocky Noun
tains. She is a great reader and
follows the doings of her sisters in
America and Europe with great
interest.
'I have q little daughter" said
the young queen, with large dark
eyes glowing, land hope that by
the time she is grown the old
customs shutting in our women
viii have been discarded, and she
viii be able to go about like an
American girl and see the world"
Mrs. Seton is making a study of
the women of China and is keenly
interested in the new woman" she
is meeting, who believes in educa-
ton, suffrage, tea, dancing and the
Ike.

GRAPE CULTURE
IS THEME Of
FETE
From Garden of Eden to the
Garden of Sun" to Be
Shown at Fresno,
BY international News Service.

FRESNO, Feb. 23.-"From the
Garden Of Eden to the Garden OF
the Sun" will be the theme of the
annual Raisin Day celebration in
Fresno April 26, when the fiftieth
anniversary Of the planting Of the
first grape vine in the famed San
Joaquin Valley is celebrated in
Fresno, with every community in
the valley participating.
The theme will be developed with
eight categorical floats depicting in
chronological order the development
of the grape as food and drink for
mankind, from the dawn Of the
first day in the Garden to the
present era, when many claim the
grape. is really coming into its
own as a fruit with a wonder fu'
ture.
Attracts Thousands.
Fresno's Raisin Day celebration
has great significance for the peo-
pie of California. 1t brings thou
sands of visitors to the metropolis
of the valley each year, but to the
residents of the section that justly
deserves the title Garden OF the
SUN" it IS a celebration of the
realization Of many years OF hope,
of the winning Of g. competency
from what once was a barren waste,
because the grape has brought to
San Joaquin it's hope for the future
and has made it one Of the greatest
valleys in the world.
The queen who will rule over the
one-day carnival is picked from the
district which has the heaviest
tonnage of raisins; the choice OF the
queen from the contestants in this
particular community is then de-
cided by the residents Of the COM
munity, and it is considered sig"
nal honor to be chosen as the pre-
siding head Of this great one-day
festival.
Representative Fete.
About two months before the fes-
tival a great committee represent
ing each county in the valley Is
picked by civic bodies Ill eacn
city, and this committee governs
the activities of the day.
The theme for this year was sug:
gested by George Aloojian, head OF
the Armenian Students ASsocla'
ton of Fresno, and provides thae
the great pageant, which Is the
chief event of every Raisin Day
celebration, will present in esmple
allegory the real story OF the grape
Every city in the valley will nave
categorical floats in the parade,
and doubtless the fact that L. r.
Eisen planted the first grapevine
in the valley in 1873 will aud a
golden jubilee touch to the efforts
of all the communities.
