Two Men Have Narrow
Escape From Drowning

Poplar, Oct. 17.-William CoTan,
the leading hardware merchant of
Hobson, and Arthur Close, who rep
resents the Rumley company in Jew
istOwn, had a narrow escape from
drowning in the Ackley lake, 10 miles
northwest of here. &sE#s.s
They were duck shooting when the
discharge of their guns upset the
boat. The water was icy and very
deep, and encumbered by their heavy
clothing it was all they could do to
keep afloat.
Ernest Lee happened to see them
from the Ackley farmhouse and went
to their rescue after they had been
in the water about 20 minutes. He
arrived just in the nick of time.

Maryland to Consider
 Liquor Enforcement Act

Annapolis, Md, Dec. 2s-Chief among the important legislation which will come before the Maryland general assembly at its biennial ses- sion next month, will be a state en- forcement act fathered by the Anti Saloon League. Twice the measure has failed of passage and interest is certain to center around the struggle. No definite idea has been obtained as yet, as to the standing of the legisla- ture on the liquor question. The drys claim the senate is dry, but privately eoncede that the house is doubtful. On the other hand, the vets main- tain that the house is wet, but they do not appear to be sure about the senate. Should an enforcement mea- sure be passed its approval or disap- proval rests with the governor, who has not intimated what he would do in this event A state bonus for Mary land ex-servieemen will be strongly urged at this session, with the Ameri- can Legion pushing the measure.

POPULAR GIRLS LIKED
 DESPITE THEMSELVES
"Steilar Stcppers' Receive Bulk of
 Attention From Male A Students

Palo Alto, Cal. Dec. 2S.-only so co-eds at Leland Stanford university are stellar steppers," while the re- maining 440 have to be content with but scattering attentions from the D. 200 men in the institution. according to the Daily Palo Alto student pub lication.
 A stellar stopper" is, in college parlance, a very popular girl.
 A recent letter to the paper signed Patty Gray" offered an explanation pressed to the men students curiosity as to the cause of the situation.
 T wanted to know why Sanford men rushed 50 out of 800 women," said the communication. You said that if I signed a promise never to break dates or substitute other girls or neglect my old friends. why, you'd give me a rush like some of the stellar steppers' receive.
 Its too funny All of these 'stel- lar steppers' break dates at the eleventh hour and fifty-ninth sec ond. It is they alone who can af- ford to substitute one from the 440 when a more delectable date is pre- ferred. And only the star performers forget old friends. And it's queer as it's true that these same snubbed friends grow more persistent. One wants what one can't have, you know.
 ''The qualifications you hold up as desirable are the very ones the non- steppers possess. You men like to be abused"

EUROPE FINDS IN BENES
 / NEW TYPE OF STATESMAN
Diplomatic Leader of Czechosloyakia Proves Himself a Well In-
 formed Man.

Geneva, Dec. 2S.-The meeting in Paris of the Council of the League of Nations has drawn attention to one of the striking personalities in Europ- can politics. He is Edouard Benes, the diplomatic leader of Czechoslo- vakia, and represents his country on the council. Judged by the stand ards of Europe, he is new type of foreign minister: not calamity howler, well informed man who be- lieves that conditions gradually are getting better instead of worse.
 Benes does not believe much in sitting in a leather desk chair and dic- tating orders to his ministers in for eign lands. When he has a big thing on he packs his grip and goes travel ling. He runs over to London, or 10 Paris or to Rome, and drops in on foreign secretaries and prime minis ters to have a friendly chat and talk over things of mutual interest. Nor does he talk too much. At the last assembly meeting Benes got the rep utation Of being rather a quiet man, who does lot of hard and useful thinking before he opens his mouth. He has a good first-hand knowledge of European politics, and more par ticularly of European statesmen.
 Benes first showed his ability when he manoeuyred the desertion of the Czechoslovakian troops from Austria over to the side of Russia And Benes is the architect of the Lit tie Entente. He made the minority treaties workable by putting some thing constructiyely economic into them, and helped the League of Ma tions, of which he is an ardent sdvo- cate, build a machinery whereby mil nority population questions could be treated in an equitable manner He helped get the Austrian financial re- construction problem before the League, and is now backing the pro- posed financial reconstruction Of Hun gary which is expected further to help in the restoration of Europe.

Tale of Berlin Student
 Shows Germany's Plight

Berlin. Dec. 2s.--The life story of many middle class families in Ger many today is similar to that re- vealed by Paul westfahl. a Berlin law student, who was recently arraigned in police court for burglary. In as- sociation with TWO old offenders Paul robbed some apartments. The boy admitted the theft, but was immedi- ately released when he told his his- tory He is the son of a widow who once was in aff1uent circumstances. But the depreciation Of the mark wiped out her income and she was compelled to become a charwoman, while the boy also worked at odd hours in order to earn enough to con- tinue his legal studies. The mother fell sick, and as there was no money for medicine and doctors fees, young Westfahl listened 10 the tales of old offenders and joined them in bur slaries. His two associates were given long terms in prison, but the judge paroled the youngster.

KNOWN ID MILLIONS,
 DIES FRIENDLESS
Pierre GaSner, Strong Man With
 Circus, Neglected at Death

San Francisco. Dec. 2S. -- At one time or another million undoubtedly knew Pierre Cashier. For years he was strong man" for one of the largest circuses.
 But Is or 20 years ago he retired from the sawdust tours to settle in San Francisco. Here thousands of a new generation came to know him. He made his living by giving physical culture demonstrations and selling his system" on a down town street corner. At the stand he never missed a day. He called himself the strongest man in the world" Usually he had a little knot of passers-by viewing his muscles and listening to his friendly badinage.
 Cashiers little peddler's automobile became landmark as familiar to San Franciscans as Twin Peaks or the Ferry building. He was assisted in his demonstration by a Chinese serv- ant, his companion for many years.
 One day recently the traffic police man sensed something wrong with the topography of the street He saw that Pierre Cashier and his tiny car were missing. The policeman told headquarters. Headquarters investi- gated and learned that Cashier had died in the isolated shack he called home.
 The authorities waited for relatives and friends to come forward with ar- engagements for the funeral. But 1t seemed there were no relatives, at least none could be found, and no one else was interested.
 So, with the faithful Chinese the only mourner, a modest funeral was provided by the municipality.
