RESIDENTS WOULD
 CLOSE RACE TRACK
Protest Against Noise and Smell
 Of BroOklandS Course

Weybridge. Eng. Feb. 2i.-Resi- dents of the very select neighbor- hood of Weybridge in Surrey long ago protested to the authorities re- garding the noise and smell which they have to endure because of the proximity of the famous Brooklands automobile racing track,
 These protests so far have fallen upon deaf ears, but the last has not yet been heard of, for the owners of the St. Georges Hill estate and ten Weybridge and Byfeet residents have served writ upon the Brook lands Automobile Racing Club with a view to having the track closed on the grounds that noise of racing constitutes nusiarce, destroys the peace of the rural neighborhood and causes serious deterioration to pro- perty.
 For IS years the majority of air plane and auto experiments and tests have been made at Brooklands, and it is claimed that an automobile passes through stiffer tests here within 24 hours than is possible in a full year on roads. This threat of legal action has not deterred club officials, who have arranged full program race meetings for the en- suing year.

Those In Liquor Trade Live ohiS
 Half As Long As Others

Cowes, Isle of Wight, Feb. A. = Brewers, distillers, bartenders, bar maids, draymen, innkeepers and others in the liquor trade live only half as long as the remainder of the population according to Sir Andrew Clark, of London, speaking at a tenn perance meeting in Cowes.
 The doctor contended that not more than one teaspoonful of alco- hol a day should be taken by the average man or woman. He said that seven out of ten beds in Lon don hospitals were occupied by vic tins of drink. If there were no al cohol drinking" he asserted, there would be plenty beds available and mony to support them.'
 Sir Andrew said that he could tes- tlfy himself that out of 24 cases ad- mitted to a London hospital on Christmas, 23 were drunk.

 ham, should become the property of the state and a separate state de- partment created to govern it and conduct further explorations. Nevada has several claims against the Federal Government for public
 lands. and the governor, in a recent address at Lovclock said some sort of compromise agreement may be arranged whereby the state will be- come sole custodian of the buried city area.
 Two or more thousands of years ago exploration has developed, peo- pie thought to be the ancestors of the Pueblo Indiuas of today, estab-

 it was deserted by it's residents vol untarily, whether they were all were slain or captured and carried off by their enemies. or all died of disease, is a matter for speculation, In any event the city was deserted, and in time became buried under sand and debris so that hardly a trace of it remained until recent dis coveries.
