 ''The country is full of men whc will have liquor. They pay almost any thing for it to be sure it is good and don't care who gets 1t for them. Many of them, if not all, feel as Mort did that the law is an unfair one, better broken than kept, and that it inter- feres with their liberty"

 Some do, of course. But really they are a little better than the goot- legger. I have often told Fred he was as bad as they were, that if it wasn't for men like him, men who pay extrav- agant prices for the stuff, other men wouldn't be tempted to run all kinds of danger to get it for them."

Writes Sister On Expenses or
 Campaign

ETTERS from Theodore Roosevelt L to Anna Roosevelt Cowles in the Saturday Evening Post record the following on campaign exrenses:
 ELKHORN RANCH, MENDOZA, Dakota, Ang. 15, '86.-Sweet Pussie :: It would be difficult to write briefly about legisimate campaign expenses; and have not the time to send a regu- lar essay. If campaign is honestly carried on, the expenses, though heavy, are less than is commonly supposed. There IS some indispensable work to be done which has to be paid for. Tens of thousands of ballots have to be printed, folded and se2t out to every voter in the district; no light labor. At every polling place there ought to be at least one man especially charged with the interests of the candidate singly and provided with his ballots, so as to give members of the opposite party chance, if they wish it. to vote for him without the rest of the ticket. This man has to have a booth, ballots, posters, etc, which again costs money. Then there must be some advertise ment in the papers, and some pasting of placards. If there are political processions a candidate will bear his share in defraying the expenses; also if for an important position he must have rooms hired for headquarters, and if he speaks will have to pay for the hall, etc.
 But whenever possible volunteers should be chosen instead of paid work CTS; they are much more effective. Any form of bribery is not only crim- inal but is also, unless done by an old hand, useless; what is known as a ''bar room" canvass is, for gentle man, especially ineffective; the loafers and vagabonds will take anyone IS money, or drink with him, but will vote against him just the same. In my three campaigns l never paid for a drink or entered a saloon; and my whole expenditures were under the items enumerated above; together with a subscription to the local political association, to defray the printing and other general expenses of the party

 "Just you try it!' the selfish old man cried. "I will crack you with my big stick" I guess he thought this would frighten Raggedy Andy and MT.

Tunky caught his left arm, although the selfish man kicked and wiggled ever so hard, they carried him to Mir. Tunky's chicken coop and lock ed him up. "Now you can sit there and think how naughty you have been Y Mir. Tunky told the selfish man.
 Then Mr. Tunky wiped the two lttle girls eyes and gave them some more bread and ham and whole lot of as- sorted cookies, and this time they reached their home without any mis- hap at all.

CHAUDFROID CHICKEN

Boil a disjointed chicken in water to barely cover and add half teaspoon of poultry seasoning, one onion, stuck with three cloves, half of bay leaf and few stalks of chopped celery. Also add a rounding teaspoon of salt after it has cooked for one hour. Let the chicken cool in the water in which it has cooked, take out and remove the skin. For the sauce which covers it, put two table spoons of butter in a saucepan and when it bubbles add two tablespoons of flour, blend well and stir in gradually two cups of strained chicken stock and the beaten yolks of two eggs. Continue to stir until thick and smooth and add one ounce of gelatine, softened in half

 Two little girls girls came in the store while the Raggedys were eating the invisible cookies and drinking the invisible soda.
 E Their mother had sent them for three cents worth of bread and a penny's worth of ham, so Mfr. Tunky gave them three loaves of bread and q lot of ham and then gave them each large stick of candy. 'The candy is for you, be- cause you are such nice little girls and always help your mama !''

ticket on which I ran. Hiring wagons for voters, paying great numbers of men to work, etc, are generally, all though not always, merely thinly dis guised forms of bribery. In districts where crooked work is feared detec- tives must be hired. Some districts are so rotten that it is almost i'm possible to win without bribery in such cases a gentleman should go in sim ply with the expectation of defeat; no form of bribery is every admissible.

It now begins to look as though Chrckie Wojak, the former third ;t,e:nan on the Corbin Red Sox and ns-r trying out with the Baltimore oroles, has n very good chance te remain with the Baltimore regulars in the role of utility infielder.

N. '. J. NINE BEATS YALE BASEBALL MEN
Scores 5 to 8 Victory on New
 Haven Diamond

Taking three run lead in the third ! inning of yesterdays game at Yale
 field, New Haven. New York Univer- them without challenge and emerged from the contest q victor over the ! Blue by the score of 5 to 3. This was the first defeat the Blue has had this season and in an effort to hold down the Gotham stickman four hurlers were sent to the mound by Smokey Joe" Wood, the Yale coach. Yester- days defeat was charged largely to
 battery errors, the work of the Eli
 pair being especially bad, with Mall lory, catcher, being the principal of-
 fender. Cold weather however had something to do with it,
 It was Yale's first upset of the sea- son, the initial defeat under the coaching of Smokey Joe" Wood, who ordered an infield shakeup, sending Captain O'Hearn across the diamond to third, installing Weed at first and using Jack Ewing at short.
 Ewing started the season at third but Lindley's field at shortstop has been unsteady Intensely cold weather compelled the game to be stopped be- fore Yale had finished its batting inn ing in the ninth.
 Aside from the alright pitching which was outstanding in the New York University triumph, the all- around game of Second Baseman Francis scintulated while the batting of Lincoln and Ingram of the visitors was timely. The game was slow and although unfinished more than tKp hours.
 New York University took the SCOT ing lead in the first on Ewing's error passed ball and Wolter's out. The cluster of four tallies which swept Yale into the discard was harvested in the fourth when Torpe, Stanley and Ingram walked and Stark singled, two followed outs allowed the score to reach four. a.
 Weed scored in the seventh on his Ingram's. singles and Jineoln's huff of OHearns fly in the second with the bases filled, Torpe forced Emo but O'IIearn and Wear were out on sharp throws to the plate. O'Hearn in the third forced Ewing, who had singled. stole third and scored on Wears single.

Place in American She'll Ambition
 of College Oarsmen 7

New York, April 10.-With place: on the 1924 Olympic rowing squad as a goal. college oarsmen are prepar- 1 ing for one of the most interesting seasons in years. | Ten major races among varsity crews. including four triangular regat- tas. feature the college program. The final Olympic trials are to be held June 13 and 14 on the SchuyIkill river at Philadelphia and the men l selected will sail June $ for France. In Three Events
 America will defend her laurels in three of the Olympic events, the sin gle and double sculls and eight-oared race. Jack Kelly, of Philadelphia. was the singles victor in 1920, and gained the doubles laurels with Paul Costello. of Philadelphia, as his part ner. The Naval academy's crew won the eight -oared event and the mid- shipmen again will be candidates for selection to defend this title.
 The academyy following its policy of early preparation. will fnaugurate the season in a dual contest with M. I. T. on the Severn May 3. The following week, the middies tackle Princetown at Annapolis. while on the same day, at Derby, Conn.,, the first of the triangular events will bring to- gether Yale, Columbia and Pennsyl- yania.
 Triangular Events.
 Columbia and Pennsylvania figure in three of the triangular events. Be- sides the one with Yale. they oppose Harvard on May 10. at Boston, and Princeton. at Philadelphia, on May Sl. The other three-cornered events brings together Cornell, Princeton and Yale. at Princeton, on May IT.
