Long |Tunics On Skirts

Long tunics, full and circular in cut, cover the skirts of new dresses to within a few inches of their hems. These tunics may be divided in front or they may be complete overskirts. They may be plain or fiounced but they are sure to be seen on the fashionable dresses Of the season.
 They are part of the same vogue that has made the long blouse so popular and to many women they are more becoming. Dresses showing these long tunics are usually slightly bloused a little below the normal waistine---a becoming mode for those who find the tube like silhouette too severe.

Here, little Marquise, Ruth asked me a surprising question.
 Don't you respect Jack, Leslie? have alwsy felt woman must re. spect the man she loves. ] felt my love going the moment I began to lose my respect for Harry"
 NO you didn't, Ruth" I answered "YOu should know better than any one else that a woman can love a man very dearly and not respect him. Your love began to grow cold when Harry outraged your sense of decency and right. Tn fact, think woman rarely loves the man she respects most. There is so much maternal in a woman's love. am quite sure that l would never love a perfect man if could find one. ] am also quite sure that I do not knoW-in fact no one knoss--just the conditions thai have led up to Sydney's Haison with Paula Petier. just what circumstances brought emo- ton to the ascendeDcy and pushed reason into the background. But am quite sure I know him well enough to know that his conscience has been on 41e job ever since that affair. That is why he does not like 10 come here. The sight q his child slabs him to the heart That is the psychology Of hu- man nature which tells us the differ ence between right and wrong. And yet according.to nature and natures law. little Jack is splendid example of sugcnics. He is the handsomest and most perfect baby physically that have ever known"

POLICE DOG STARS IN WALLACE PICTURE
StrOnsheart Appears in Biz
 Feature Next Week
"Brawn Of the North" with Strong

"Brawn Of the North" with Strong heart at the Palace.
 Stronghcart, the wonderful police dog who sprang into such promi- hence as a motion picture star in The Silent Call'' has made another picture which is coming to the Palace for an engagement Of three days beginning Monday. It is a Laurence Trimblc-Jane Murtin pro ductioh entitled "Brawn of the North" d First National attraction.
 The story is most unusual from the standpoint of thrilling action and tense emotional scenes. It is a story of q dogs faithfuness and loyalty to his mistress, d loyalty that sur mounts all his natural instincts. For Brawn, the dog character played by Strongheart, suffers his temptations. temptations very similar to those given to men; and they attract him to such an extent that finally his hu- man mistress declares him worthless and attempts to kill him.
 But his loyalty remains steadfast and the action which leads up to the climax carries with it heart throbs and thrills, melodrama and pathos, threading through double love story.
 Sunday night two fine photoplays will be offered with William Duncan in Smashing Barriers" and George NJ. Anderson returns to the screen again in The Greater Duty" Mir, Anderson will be well remembered for his once popular character, Broncho Billy. On Thursday Kath- erine Macdonald will be offered in The Infidel." The entire week of sary week and a special bill will be offered featuring Tommy Anderson and His BeautN RcNue of 1921

 was hardly talking to Ruth now. little Marquisc. was trying 10 give 4 reason 10 myself for my fear of be- ing absolutely honest with Jack.
 "Everything that we human beings kuow." I continued, must be sd- busted and adjudicated by the ad- of man, and the mind Of men, my ,IUar Ruth. is often in violent diseofd Hifh the law Of nature. We have besn taught 10 separate our brains, our senses. our reason and our emo- ton, just as we separate husbands and wives from each other. when all the while the mind and the senses may be partners and friends just as husbands and wives may be partners and friends all through fife.
 ~as t is ve try to make women all emotion and sentiment and se have been taught that men are all reason and intellect. when if th truth were known I think women are the harder and more sensible Of the two and men the more emotional and sentimental. Consequently men and women can never combine on the old traditional lasis any more than we can combine oii and water.

AUCUSTANA SYNOD
BACKS DRY LAW

Rockford ILL.,, June 1l.-Strong res
olutions' denouncing attempts to
thwart the operations of the Volstead
act in condemning the action of the
New York assembly and Governor
Smith in passing what it characterized
as "a notification act" were adopted
this morning by the Augustana synod,
meeting here for its sixty-fourth an
nual convention.
The synod calls on its 1,24o churches
and 293,777 members as we'll as its $50
pastors ito constantly and fearlessly
support and encourage the enforce
ment of the Nolstead law, and to be
active in the selection of public Off
Gals who stand squarely for law en-
forcement. 1t also urged its members
to do all in their power to defeat
hostile legislation submitted to the
electorate"
The resolutions. which were adopted
without a dissenting vote, were offer

PENNA. TIGHTENS UP ON
DRUNKEN AUTOISTS

Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania
has signed the Williams Motor Bill
passed by the legislature and effective
in 1924. The outstanding feature of
the bill is the effort which it makes
to restrain those who have been in
the habit of getting drunk and in
dulging in the popular pastime OF
killing people by reckless driving,
The minimum fine for driving while
intoxicated is raised to $780, and the
prison term is heightened from one
year to three years. In addition to
this, the state highway department is
given much wider discretion in refusing
drivers licenses to those who are reck-
less or in the habit of drinking
An item in this bill which has scarce
ly received any notice, is that which in
creases the tax sufficiently to add two
million dollars annually to the state
treasury. In the old days the liquor
interests of Pennsylvania paid into the
state treasury close to two million dol
lars annually. This was regarded by
the advocates of liquor license system
as an all powerful argument for the re-
tention of that system. 1t is worth
while noting that the automobile with
in three years after the adoption of
prohibition has wiped out the revenue
argument for the saloon.

BRITISH SOLONS CONSIDER
LIQUOR TREATY WITH u. s.

The proposal OF the United States
for treaty whereby foreign vessels
could carry liquor under seal in Amer
lean territorial waters if the right Of
search was extended to twelve miles
from the coast, was discussed in the
House of Commons on June Is.
The Associated Press says that Ro-
Maid O'Neill, under secretary for for
eign affairs, in answer to question ad
mitted such a treaty had been pro-
posed. He said the matter was under
consideration and added that the ques-
ton was not involved of altering inter
national law with regard to territorial
waters. The only question arising
was with regard to special treatment
for the nationals of the two nations
within territorial waters.

CAN CONQUER STILLS
Is POLICE OPINION
Liquor in Waukegan Brought From
Outside

That the manufacture OF liquor IL
legally can be stamped out is indicated
by the experience of Waukegan where
the states attorney \. V. Smith, has
acted aggressively against law vio-
lators. In a recent article the Wauk-
egan Sun said
That the manufacture of moon
shine whisky in and near Waukegan
has been abandoned practically and
that the big majority of liquor con-
sumed here is struggled into the city
by bootleggers who obtain it in Chi
cago, is the opinion of the Waukegan
police.
The persistent drive that has been
waged against moonshiners, resulting
in numerous arrests, followed in
nearly all cases by substantial fines
and Jail sentences, has discouraged
the local manufactured of moou-
shine to big extent, the police be-
lieve
The fact that the closest vigilance
and numerous raids have failed to
locate any local moonshne plants"
in a long time is pointed out as
a pretty sure proof of the conten-
ton.

sent the lawful possessions of the few,
the lawless practices OF few more,
and rebel against the denial to the vast
majority. Universa sal prohibition in the
United States would occasion far less
discomfort than partial prohibition and
partial indulgence.
1T is the partial indulgence which
challenges the majesty OF law, but the
greater crime is the impairment OF the
moral fiber OF the Republic. The re-
sentful millions have the example OF
law defiance by those who can afford
to buy, and are reckless enough to
take the risk, and there is inculcated
contempt for law which may some
day find expression in far more seri-
Gus form.
al do not see how any citizen who
cherishcs the protection Of law i'll or
ganizcd society may feel himself Sc
cure when he himself is the example
of contempt for law. Clearly there is
call for awakened conscience and
awakened realization of true self-in-
terest on the part of the few who will
themselves suffer most when rever-
ence for law is forgotten and passion
is expressed in destructive lawlessness.
Ours must be law-abiding Republic,
and reverence and obedience must
spring from the influential and the
leaders among men, as well as obedi-
cnce from the humber citizens, else
the temple will collapse.
Whatever satisfaction there may
be in indulgence, whatever objection
there is to the so-called invasion OF
personal liberty, neither counts when
the supremacy OF law and the stabil-
ity of our institutions arc menaced.
With all good intention the majority
sentiment of the United States has
sought by law to remove strong drink
as a curse upon the American citizen,
but ours is larger problem now to
remove lawless drinking as menace
to the Republic ITSELF

NOT RIGHT AWAY
Great Britain Not Ready to Climb
Aboard the Water Wagon

Sudden reformation of the drinking
habits of the British nation is not at
tainable, says the report of the special
committee appointed by the British
labor party to inquire into the ques-
ton of prohibition.
The committee in its reports says it
perceives no sign that the British peo-
pie are at all likely to vote national
prohibitory law. 1t points out that
the example of the United States can
not be copied because prohibition in
America came only as the elimination
stage of three quarters of century of
reform including the widespread adop-
ton of local option legislation.

MASS. WOMEN C0NDOLE NY. WOMEN
View With Alarm Action of New York
in Defying Fundamental Law of
Land

Leading women of Massachusetts
representing the presidents of the large
organizations of women in their state
just before entering the council
chamber of Governor Cox on June 5
1928, in order to hold with him a con-
ference on law enforcement, signed all
open letter to the women OF New York
state expressing sympathy with the
women of the Empire State because OF
the situation brought about by Gov
crnor Smith and the legislature in re-
pealing the MulanGage law. The
letter says in part:
Every right-mindcd woman in
the country as we'll as in New
York state, must feel alarmed and
Inundated at the action of New
York i'll defying the fundamentals
of good government, majority rule
and law observance i'll breaking
away from the Union, for that in
effect is what the action of Gov
ernor Smith means.
We believe that the presidents
of all women's organizations
should Immediately call their lead
ers together and go to Governor
Smith asking him at once to re-
convene the assembly of New
York in order that no time may be
lost in putting New York state
back into the Union, in placing
New York in the ranks of the
states that are loyal to the federal
Constitution, that observe major
ity rule, and that obey the law OF
the land.
The women signing the letter repre-
sent the State Federation of Women's
Clubs, the Massachusetts League OF
Women Voters, the Massachusetts w
c. T. u, the NJ Massachusetts, Federation
of Churches, the Massachusetts
Parent Teachers Association. Mrs
William Tilton, who was chairman OF
the meeting, is one of the yce-presi-
dents OF the Women's National Law
Enforcement Committee recently form
ed in New York, representing ten mil
lion women determined to bring the
country back to the fundamental
principle of observance of law.

Two New York men were sentenced
the other day to two years in the fed

attempting to bride prohibition agents.
The men were convicted of having
paid $4,000 each to two federal of
ieers for liquor withdrawal permits.
The money which was inlpounded by
the court and becomes the property OF
the government, will not be applied on
the fine.
Governor Smith says he will not be

ALIENS


People who are prone to
criticize the prohibition law and
its enforcement should not lose
sight OF the statement by Com
missioner Haynes in his annual
report, that violations of the law
have been mainly by aliens. In
Maryland he says that seventy
five per cent of the violators are
foreign born. In Missouri SO
per cent, in California IS per
cent, Washington Is per cent
and in Wisconsin about 90 per
cent.
