NEFF'S ENFORCEMENT IDEA
Texas Governor Would Use Both Army and Navy in Enforcing the Prohibition Laws.

Dallas, Tex, Dec. 19.--Both the mill tary and naval forces should be em- ployed in the enforcement of prohi- bition laws, Pat NJ. Neff, governor of Texas, declared in an address before q mass meeting here last night The meeting. sponsored by the Dallas Pas tors association, adopted a resolution endorsing the formation of a local organization of pastors and church laymen to assist in the enforcement of the law. Upon suggestion of the governor, it was proposed that all communities Of the state organize along similar lines in campaign Ito arouse the public against violation of the prohibition laws
 No ship that carries outlaw liquor should be allowed in an American harbor." asserted Governor Neff.
 No state should refuse to enforce the national prohibition act. but should compel the federal govern ment to furnish the necessary machin- cry if it's own is insufficient, the gov ernor said.
 Let the battleships that are in our harbors go out over the three-mile limit and sweep the seas free of the rum ships" he said.

EDUCATION MUST
 BE QUALIFICATION
Medical Assn. Says This Would
 Curb Fake Doctors

Chicago, Dec. 19.--If state medical licensing boards would admit to eS- aminations only those qualified by education to be physicians while po- lice powers of the states were direct ed to search out and prosecute men practicing medicine without a license, the nation would be freed of unquali- fled doctors. the American Medical association declared today in an offi- cial statement by its executive com- mittee.
 Not Many Fakirs
 The statement said that the num- ber of medical impotsers and poorly qualified physicians in the country, does not even approximate 25.00o," the number claimed by a man under indictment for diploma frauds in Missouri. IL set out that during the past eight years, not more than 2,500 graduates of low grade medical schools have received licenses.
 For more than 20 years, the at tention of the public has been regu- larly directed, in official publications of the association to various evils" the statement declared. Ever since 1918, the journal of the American Medical association has published an- nually the fact that the Connecticut and Arkansas eclectic licensing boards were apparently serving as clearing houses for low grade institutions in Missouri. q
 Asssils Connecticut
 Tn 1920. the journal pointed out that Connecticut through its eclectic board, was licensing men who had not studied in eclectic medical schools, and, even worse, was H. censing some men who had not ap- paTently completed a medical course in any school. Nevertheless, public officials have consistently disregard cd these announcements until tho sensational publicity accorded an ex. pose by a St, Louis newspaper forced the matter on their attention.
 There are today live medical schools in the United States which are not up to the high standard of the remaining 76. If these schools are forced to raise their requirements or else to discontinue, the public will be assured that no men will he grad uated in medicine who are not quail fled to appear for licensure. If tho state licensing boards will then admit 10 their examinations only those qualified, the public will have assur- ance that any man who can present the license of the state examining board is a properly qualified physi- cian''

ANITA STEWART AT LIBERTY SUNDAY

Anita Stewart is shown in practi- cally two characters at Mind the Paint Girl" at the Liberty Sunday night.
 First she appears as the little slum girl. who sweeps out her fa- thers shop and runs errands, and does any handy work to help make ends meet for her parents, who are very poor. As the shop girl she is shown in more or less ragged calico dresses, with her hair hang ing down her back and hats of i'm possible styles. Ignorant and un- uttered. yet she has strong heart and battles her way through the roughs of the neighborhood who are very much in love with her pretty face. and try to steal kisses as chance presents itself
 Full of ambition to get out of the sordid neighborhood, and to win to the better things of life, she takes the opportunity of her fathers death to move. Then she applies for a place on the stage. After much dis couragement she finally gets place in the chorus. Then through the accidental spilling of bucket of paint, she gets an inspiration, and suggests the song. Mind the Paint to a composer. She is given the op- portunity to sing it and makes the hit of the season.

CALLED ON FOR MUCH WORK
Amount of Labor Performed by the
f, Human Heart Is Almost Beyond
Power of Description.

The heart of one man in a lifetime
pumps as much blood through the body
as the blood weight Of the 1O,O00,0OO
men killed during the war, according
to DR.. ]. Plesch, a professor in the
Berlin Medical school, an authority on
blood circulation and the first man to
perfect q system for measuring the
blood content of the human body.
"The heart of a man weighing 1873
pounds and living sixty years." he said,
pumps during the course Of his life
161,500,0OO quarts of blood. The World
war cost 100000 lives. Estimating
the average weight of a mans body at
1873 pounds and the weight of the blood
content at 5 per cent of the total. some
21,4OO,0W quarts of blood were shed
during the war;"
Professor Plesch used this illustra-
ton to show how much more powerful
is this marvel of nature than the de-
struction which mankind with the most
ingenious instruments of warfare was
able to infict upon itself in five years
of desperate effort.

AGE MATER OF COMPARISON
Actual Passing Of the Years Really
Has Little to Do With Coming
of De~crepitude.

John r. Voorhis, president Of the
board of commissioners Of New York
city, recently celebrated his ninety
third birthday by doing his usual days
work. He arose at 4:30, his usual
time, and after his usual hearty break
fast walked as usual to his office more
than a mile away.
Being ninety-three doesn't mean any
thing unusual to this man whose span
of life has been two-thirds as long as
that Of the American republic.
Age is, after all, remarks Thrift,
greatly a matter of comparison. A
few days before Mr.. Voorhis' birthday
be said that, while walking briskly to
his office one morning, he noticed a
seventy-ive-year-old man feebly hob
bling along the street, tottering with
every step and seeming to have a ter
rible time to navigate ever at the slow
est pace.
"It al a great pity" commented
Mr.. Voorhis, on this sad spectacle, ito
see such a young man so nearly dis
Hbled by old age"
Yes, it's largely a matter Of COM
parison.
At sixteen, forty is old age; at nine
%ty-three, se~venty-fve is youth. The
actual years count for naught. More
and more we find this out.
