BIRTHS EXCEED
DEATHS in STATE

1t is gratifying to note that births
In Nevada during the years 1921
1922 exceeded the deaths by S22, says
the biennial report of DR.. S. l.. Lee,
of the state board of health. While
these figures indicate no tendency to-
ward race suicide" 1t is painful to
record the fact that of the 200
babies birn. 1872 passed away before
reaching their first birthday. This
number does not include 65 still
born during the same period.
This alarming mortality among in
fants is a sad commentary upon the
present method Of rearing our chill
dren. While representing the high
est type OF mammalian life, we drop
to the nadir when compared to the
dumb animals In safeguarding infant
life.
Whether the morality is due to
faulty methods adopted for infant
care, or on the contrary, is due to
effete and defective ancestry, calls
for deep study on the part OF the
medical profession in order that some
weight may be thrown upon the sub
ject whereby the infant may be given
fighting chance for life.

FOUR DRY BILLS
ARE INTRODUCED

Four prohibition bills were intro
duced in the Nevada legislature last
week. In the Senate s. B. Sc. making
the Volstead act the law of Nevada
was presented by Senator Sprague of
Esmeralda county. The bill was re-
ferred to the committee on educa-
tion, state library and public morals.
The first bill in the Assembly was
A. B. 81, introduced by Assemblyman
Addenbrooke by request. This bill
would make the Volstead act the law
of Nevada and provides that the
superintendent of the Nevada police
be ex-officio state commissioner of
prohibition and that all members of
the state police be state prohibition
agents. The attorney general is
charged with the duty of instituting
proceedings against all peace officers
who fail to perform their sworn duty
in the enforcement of prohibition.
A. B. II was offered by Assembly
man Nelson of Washoe county, also
by request. Like A. B. 81, 1t makes
the Volstead act the prohibition law
of Nevada. In addition. however, 1t
contains a section authorizing cer-
tain officers of the county, with the
approval of the governor or the coun-
ty commissioners, to offer rewards in
prosecution of violators of the dry
law. 1t provides also that convicted
persons shall be liable for all ex-
penses of proceedings against them,
including the fees of jurors. Fines
collected under this act are to ac-
crue to the general fund of the
county. In case any section of the
law is not to affect the validity of
the balance of the act
A. B. 70, another bill by Alden
brooke by request, includes every
thing of the Volstead act that is,
"alive" or applies to Nevada at this
time. 1t is a lengthy bill, consisting
of eleven single spaced typewriter
pages. The superintendent Of the Ne
vada state police is made the state
enforcement officer and is to have
the last say in the issuance OF per-
mits to drug stores to traffic in
liquors for medicinal purposes. In
order to obtain state permit an ap-
plicant must show that he is already
holder Of government permit.
Members Of the assembly who
voted for repeal of the present law
were heard to predict that one of the

HONEY DAY IS
ADVOCATED

CALIFORNIA; have been helping pro-
ducers move their surplus products
by setting aside "prune days" "fig
days" and the like. On these oc-
casions California people fill up on
figs and raisins and prunes. they
feel better nourished as result and
growers prosper.
Nevada honey producers can't move
their honey. There is no demand.
Honey is as cheap as sugar but peo-
pie regard II as a luxury. Relief is
available right here in Nevada.
The governor has been asked by
Churchill county representatives and
Its former senator to set aside a
honey day" for Nevada. II is be-
lieved that representatives from other
western Nevada counties will also
make such a request. Newspapers
have been asked to help, and will un-
doubtedly respond.
The suggestion was originated by
Milt Wallace of the l. II. Kent store
says the Fallon Eagle.

DOUGLAS Wins
FROM U. OF N.

The Tri Delts, girls basketball
team OF the University of Nevada,
and the Goofs, the second team of
the same institution, both met de-
feat at the hands of the Douglas
high school players on the local
court Friday night, the former by
score of SO to 33 and the latter by
score of 10 to Is.
The university teams have de-
feated every high school team they
have met this season and came to
Gardnerville confident that they
would be victorious. The discovered,
however, that the teams of the local
high school are composed of players
above the average in skill and
knowledge Of the game.
In the girls the score stood tie
many times. Douglas fighting with de-
termination against the Tri Delts.
One of the forwards on the visiting
team showed exceptional skill in

learning this, kept the ball out of
her territory as much as possible.
At the end of the first half the
score stood IS to q In favor of the
visitors. At the final whistle the
score was 36-33 in favor of Douglas.
The boys game was fast and the
home boys measured up splendidly
against the heavier team. At the
end of the first half the Goofs lead
by score of II to 8. Soon after the
opening of the second half Douglas
took the lead and held 1t. In the
last five minutes of the game the
home team did not attempt to shoot
goals but exerted every effort to
keep the ball out of the Goof's ter
ritory. In this they succeeded and
won by score of 10 to Is.
During both game excitement ran
high, students and spectators for
getting their dignity and yelled
themselves hoarse.
Following the games a social dance
was given in honor of the visiting
teams.

HEAVY WIND AT

A gale swept Carson City Sunday

The Chas. Peters property was
badly damaged by falling trees and
In one instance a 80 foot fence was
torn out by tree and lifted several
feet in the air.
All in all, the damage done by
wind was beyond conception and as
