u. S. District Attorney Thomas Will

Splendid enforcement results are being
obtained in the southern district OF Illi-

The reason is complete cooperation of the
SO, eminent ii enforcement work. ihoal-
as Williamson United States attorney in
this district has made a notable record
With the help of his assistants, cases
against violatorS have been so thoroughly
prepared and vigorously prosecuted that
very great proportion OF prohibition
law offenders are convicted in this dis
trct. Mr.. Williamson originated the plan
of indicting the owner with the proprie-
tor OF a soft drink parlor for conspiracy
where there has been a second offcnse in
the same premises. In the present term
a conviction was secured of this character
and it has awakened property owners to
the seriousness OF the situation as never

Effective
Violators Will Be Demanded and Expected


An audience of over thousand, conf
pletely filling the large 1st NJ F. Church
at Aurora, cheered Dad Rompel again
and again as he delivered smashing blows
in his attack on liquor law breakers. By
their applause, their interest and their
promises of cooperation the men and wo-
men present, representing practically
every church in Aurora, declared war on
vioators of the Eighteenth Amendment.
The Aurora mass meeting was a part of
the Anti-Saloon Leagues new enforce
met program. For weeks previous to the
meeting Anti-Saloon League investigators
had made survey of conditions in Au-
rora and Kane county. When the sur
vey had been completed the situation was
laid before the preachers of Aurora and
vicinity with the result that they COM
bined in arranging for great public mass
meeting at which conditions of lawless-
ness in the city and the county could be
revealed and explained to the public.

Can Win With Support
Major Ebbert explained that there is
tremendous amount of work involved i'll
the Leagues new enforcement program.
He appealed for the support of the clean
moral citizenship of the community in
this fight to uphold the law Without this
support, he declared, the fight could not
be won. But with it conditions could be
greatly improved and violations reduced
to a minimum.
Dad Rompei opened his address by
answering the old wet argument that pro-
hibition was slipped into the Constitution
while the nation was off its guard. He
explained that America had been fighting
or prohibition for huedred years and
that the Eighteenth Amendment was
adopted as the climax of the prohibition
movement. Then, explaining how the
vets elected wet mayors sheriffs, states
attorneys and other officials in many
places while the drys were celebrating
what they thought was complete vic

Philippine PaternoIisr1

Recently there came to Manila. on
boat bringing shell from Bohol. an
unusually intelligent youth with some
high school education. The company
buying the shell wished to employ
him, with view to raising him even
tually to an important position. He
could not accept the offer, however,
until I return to Bohol and get the
consent Of my amo (master), so that
he will not fog me. l did not tell
him I would stay in Manila" In
Visayan native culture, expressed in
such customary law, deliberate offense
to one in authority over you Is very
grave. 1t is under such rigid mandate
that the coastal barter Is safely car
ried on; the same thing perpetuates
the good character of Filipino sailors
in the ocean trade.

Grecian Boy Scouts

The organization Of the boy scout
movement as an educational force
among the children Of $500 new refu-
gee villages throughout Greece has
been approved by the ministry Of edu-
cation. Initial plans call for the re-
cruitlng of 25,00O scouts.
An appropriation Of 10000 drach-
mans by the Near East relief will be
used to provide uniforms and equip
ment for model troop in one of the
Athens refugee camps, and 1t Is ex-
pected that the American gift will be
followed by many similar donations
from wealthy Greeks and Armenians.
The model troop will consist Of picked
Armenian boys under fourteen years
of age. 1t will travel to various parts
Of Greece as a recruiting force.

Waterproofng Golf Clubs

A new process for treating wooden
golf clubs makes them waterproof and
extremely hard, according to the Pop
ular Science Monthly. Heads of sea-
soned persimmon wood are subjected
to vacuum that extracts every par
ticle of air and moisture from the
wood, which then is impregnated with
the newly discovered chemical. The
club heads then are dried and hard
ened. Clubs treated In this manner
are said to have greater driving power
than other wooden clubs and not to
shrink or expand with varying atmos-
pheric conditions.

Mr.. and Mrs Charles Channels were
holding reception.
That is. they were talking to the
mountain goats and wild sheep at the
zoo.
They were also taking bits of grass
to eat from time to time, SO that Mrs
Charles Channels said 1t was just like
party where people had chicken
salad and Ice cream.
She had heard. she said, people talk
ing Of such parties when they came
to the zoo.
Often. she added. people looked at
the animals, but talked about their
home plans. and what they were 60
ing to do.
The animals picked up a great deal
Of information this way. some Of
which, however, did not mean much
to them.
1t was not all useful information.
OF course Mrs. Channels was not
giving the grass to her guests
They took 1t themselves. But no
matter. Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Chamois

ARMAGEDDON NAME
TO CONJURE WITH
FctO Spots Richer in His
foric Associations.

In this day Of fascinating exploits
in historic places there is scarcely a
more interesting undertaking, or one
with richer promises of results. than
the surveys and excavations which are
about to be made at Armageddon. For
centuries that resembling name has
been of both practical and mystical Sig
nificance, for It's historic associations
and for It's apocalyptic reference, while
it's dramatic injection ID years ago into
our political vocabulary invested 1t
with vital interest to multitudes to
whom it had hitherto been little more
than half-forgotten fiction.
"The Mountain of Megiddo" was q
city west of the Jordan which was re-
built by King Solomon, probably after
its destruction by the armies OF one OF
the pharaohs, and 1t Is entirely possible
that exploration Of the site will dis
close ruins and records Of hrst-rate
Importance. But even greater interest
attaches to the adjacent plain Of Es-
draelon. to which indeed the name Of
Armageddon has often been applied,
and which Is one Of the most famous
backgrounds Of the world. It was
there that Barak overthrow and de-
stroyed Sisera and his army, and that
Gideon vanqulshed the Midianites. It
was also there that Saul was finally
defeated and slain by the Philistines,
and that Josiah met a like fate at the
hand of Pharaoh Necho Of Egypt. On
the height overlooking 1t at the west
Elijah fought with the prophets Of
Baal the great Battle of the Gods"
and across 1t Jehu drove for the con-
quest Of Jezreel and the kingdom Of
Israel. There occurred one of the
greatest conflicts Of the Crusades, and
there the armies Of Napoleon fought.
And finally, in the present day, it was
the scene of General Allenby's over
whelming victory over the Turks,
which ended their dominion in Pales-
tine.
The site Of the city and It's immedi-
ate environs has been known by many
names. Herodotus called 1t Magdolon.
The Egyptians called a place in that
vicinity Taanach, in modern times
known as Taannuk. The ancient
Legion, since called Lejjun, has been
thought to be identical with Megiddo
itself, and it has been called by the
Arabs Ras el-Kishon, meaning head Of
the brook kishon and it has long been
known to possess well-preserved re-
mains Of buildings Of great size and
magnificence. The entire region, in
deed, is invested with history and ira
dition surpassed by few spots in the
world, and it is cause for rejoicing that
American scientific explorers are at
last to reveal the treasures Of ancient
information which probably lie thick
beneath its soil.

family is about to make a farewell
speech" said Mrs. Charles Chamois.
All the others listened and looked
very much interested.
They beat their hoofs on the ground
which was their way Of clapping
hands.
1--WE are to be moved" said Mr..
Charles Chamois, ito another part Of
the zoo where we will be given sand
to walk upon.
Somehow 1t has not agreed with
US here. We are not as weh as we
might be.
you see, zoo life has been such a
change, and now they have grown to
know here what will agree with US
best, SO we are going to be changed,
and the change will do us great good.
1--WE will not 60 away for change
in our new place.
'"That's the way we have change.
We think this way is the best.
$50 we are going to be well and
as happy as ever.
"But we will miss our friends and
hope to see them in another part Of
the zoo, too, some day.
"But 1 have been asked, or If I
haven't been asked, should have been,
to tell you a little of the life of a
Chamois, and especially about our own
lives which are considered a bit I'M
usual"
do tell u.s." the others said.
This delighted Mr.. Chamois. He
would have spoken anyway, but 1t was
nicer to be urged.
Mr.. Charles Channels moved a little
toward Mrs. Channels and said:
1--WE admired each other because we
were each so brave. We came from
Switzerland where there are great
mountains.
sometimes we lived In the noun
tains and sometimes In huge caves.
1--WE could jump and run, and we
never lost our footing.
1--WE were careful when we were in
dangerous places, but still we were
very brave.
I'm the summers we had one home
one which was high up-but when win
ter came we moved lower down where
1t was warmer and where we could
be more protected.
"Yes, these are the ways Of the
Chamois family, and these are the
things we did, but now we must be
going, for the keeper Is coming to
take us to our new home in the ZOO"
FAREWELL" said Mrs. Chamois.
Farewell" said Mr.. Chamois.
Farewell" the other animals said.
And they even stopped eating grass
and said that they would miss such
brave and splendid animals from their
neighborhood, but were glad they were
going where they would be we'll.

The gold cup, prize trophy Of the
international livestock Judging con
test at the English Royal Stock Snow
may come back TO Maryland for the
third time ii the Maryland Judging
team which won the national contest
al the National Dairy Show last week
gets trip to Europe and repeat, thclc
the success of the two forme~ teams.
By winning the contest at the Ma
t onal Dairy Show the Maryland team
becomes eligible to represent the U. S.
i'll the international Judging contest
liz England. The team composed of
Arthur Dunnigan, Hartford county,
Ralph Walker, Montgomery county,
Stanley b. Sutton, Kent county, with
James Almony, Baltimore county, as
alternate, nosed out the nearest op-
posing team by 1877 points, according
to word received by DR.. Thomas b.
Symons, director of the University of
Maryland Extension Service, from f..
G. Jenkins, State boys club agent.
If the necessary finances can be pro-
vlded to send this team to Europe it
will be the third honor of it's kind that
has fallen to Maryland club boys. The
first trip was won in 1921 by Warren
Rice, George Worrilou and Joseph
Glackin, of Cecil county, at the South
eastern Fair at Atlanta, Ga. This
team had hardly returned from it's
European jaunt, bearing the prize
gold cup OF victory, before another
Maryland team succeeded in placing
first at the National Dairy Show. This
time the boys came from Hartford
county and Richard Wills, Hubert
Snodgrass and Fendall Cushing, got
passports to England and won the
gold cup the second time for Mary
land.
Members of this years team come
from three different counties. They
were trained by their respective coun-
agents with the assistance of special
lists from the University of Maryland.
Final training of the team, however,
was in the hands of w. C. Snarr,
county agent of Montgomery county,
who accompanied the boys. The many
fine dairy herds in the State which af-
ford Maryland club boys the oppor-
tunity to study select dairy types and
the interest of breeders of dairy cat
tie, it is pointed out, are big factors
in the success of the Maryland teams.

With the autumn hunting season
getting under way in the Northeast
and in the South, the Forest Service,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, issues an appeal to all sportsmen
to guard against forest fires.
Ordinarily, say forestry officials, a
great number of devastating forest
fires are caused each fall by hunters.
These fires not only destroy valuable
timber but also the better forms of
game animals, and thereby defeat the
plans of the hunters themselves.
Those whose duty it is to guard for
est lands from fire are usually appre-
hensive of the fall hunting season.
From bitter experience these men have
learned that hunters are frequently
careless with matches, smoking tobac-
CO, and camp fires. A great many
sportsmen's associations have for
years taken measures to prevent this
carelessness by their members. Other
CluDS anu organizations are 1OIlOWlng
suit.
In fact, the time is rapidly APP
preaching when hunters everywhere
will seek the woods with full knowl-
edge of forest fire conditions, and
these hunters will be of invaluable as
sistance in protecting the country's
forests rather than being the agencies
through which so many fires arc
started.
The Federal government employs
its rangers, guards and lookouts to
protect the National Forests. Most
states likewise have fire wardens and
rangers with police powers. Hunters
should take warning and be the first
to protect the woods. They should
erase from the records any reference
to forest fires traceable to hunters.
The citizens of no community want
it's beautiful autumn landscape blotted
out with smoke from burning wood
lands.
