But He Has to Listen
to the State Senators

for proposing repeal of the amend
ment, stated that the legislature OF
Nevada already has made application
for the calling of such constitutions

GLANDS.

When q man is accused these days,
gland specialists, mind specialists and
sociology specialists paw over him and
usually decide it wasn't his fault.
Of course much of this is tomfool-
cry and bunkum, and some Of it is
downright taking.
But it is to be hoped that a wearied
public will not shunt this line of &C
ton from the courts.
Out Of it may grow a modern and
civilized method of dealing with wrong
doors.

WRITES HOME FOLKS


Years ago when Eddie Cline used to
take in every nickle-show in town with
open eyes and mouth, there used to
be little boy actor on the screen.
Ed. says he doesn' remember who the
boy was then, but it didn't take him
long in his youth to make up his mind
that when he got through the grades
in the st. James school here he was
going out west and be a movie d.
rector. That was some 10 or20 years
ago.
Today Edward Cline is one of the
foremost directors in moviedom. And
he's all the more proud of 1t today
when he is able to bring to Kenosha
Jackie Coogan's latest picture, "The
Rag Man." which is being exhibited
at the Orpheum theater on Monday
afternoon, and on Tuesday and We'd
nesday of Next week. Cline directed
the picture and he places it highest in
rank among the many great pictures
he has placed on the screen since his
career began years ago.
Glad He Can Help.
When Mr.. Cline heard that his pic
ture was being brought to Kenosha by
,~the Kenosha Optimist club for their
underpriviliged boys work fund he
wrote to Ray Stretch, president of the
club, his appreciation for their having
chosen his picture.
"I've always been heart and soul in
favor Of all work which helps to get
boys who cot the wrong start placed
on real Foundations" he wrote, "and

AN AUTO NOW A NECESSITY

Automobile travel once was the lux. ury of the rich. Now it is about the cheapest form of family transporta. tion known.
 Autos are cheaper to buy in this twenty fifth year of the industry than they ever were, and are more reliable than Old Dobbin. They cost less than the horse and buggy in which mother and father did their courting thirty years ago.
 The automobile has passed the stage where they are luxury. AS mat ter of fact there are few persons who can afford to do without them.
 In Spokane recently a professor of music started suit for $10,00O dam ages against an orchestra leader for "jazzing" music alleged to have been composed by the old masters. Upon what basis the suit was filed is hard to understand. If anyone mutilating the musical compositions of the old masters can be haled before court for damages most of our musical popu- lation would be amenable to law. And numerous lawyers would be liable for damages for misinterpreting Black stone.

Sunday: "West of the Water To,uer."

Tomorrow is Washington's Birth day anniversary. Little can be said
 about this notable epoch in American history that has not already been GOV cred by the sentimentalist and histo-
 rian. George may have been the heller

 maid school teachers and families who place halo on their children's head at the time of their birth. But after raising large and hungry fam
 fly of regular fellers,' we are com pelled to readjust our credibility.

ANOTHER ARMS FARLEY

Whether anything would be gained by President Coolidge in summoning another arms conference in the near future, is a moot question, and des- bite the fact that the senate, with out opposition, inserted clause in the naval appropriations bill author izing and requesting the president to call such a conference at Wash 1 ing, the chief executive is represent ed as regarding affirmative action as untimely or useless.
 It was the common understand ing when President Harding called 1 the famous arms limitation confer ence of 1922 that it should be SUD- | Iplemented later with a meeting in- spired by similar good motives on the part of the powers.
 In his address to congress in De- cember President Coolidge express ed the hope of carrying out this i'm piled understanding at the proper time, but he set no date for the pro- posed conference, and no doubt his statements were intended as a re- hinder to the European powers that the United States stands willing at any time to participate in an arms barley. It is said that Europe has been considering such a conference on it's own account incident to a
Seward daily gateway., 1925-02-21

call from the League of Nations, and
 the administration takes the view
 that the situation would only be-
 come more involved should this country again take the initiative. The question of land armaments, which bulked large in 1922 but which was
 shunted aside largely on account of
 the French attitude, remains an i'm portant factor in the whole problem of armaments The view is taken in this country that since land arma ments are chiefly European prob lem, the initiative in the movement for limitation is for Europe to take. Japan is represented to favor an-
 other conference. The Japanese min ister of war, speaking in the diet
 few days ago, said he saw no req
 son why Japan should take excep-
 tion to such step when it is in-
 spired from genuine motives of lfrankness, fairness and sincerity, and l the same sentiments were voiced by the minister of the navy.
 | President Coolidge has shown by word and example that his attitude | is one of sincerity. He opposed the
 congressional proposal to elevate
 guns on our old battleships barley for reasons of economy, but un
 doubtedly the major reason was the favorable effect such stand would have abroad in proving Americas desire for world peace. The presi- dent also was primarily responsible for the collapse of the ship for
 ship building program, which was favored by the secreary of the navy and a considerable section of cong ress.
 The United States, apart from dem-
 onstrating it's disinclination toward
 anything that might be construed as
 militaristic, has gone beyond the let
 ter in it's official position toward ar
 mament limitation. Whether. as much may be said for Europe is to be doubted.

LIQUOR, LIQUOR EVERYWHERE

A river of booze is flowing into the United States at present, by land and by sea. It will continue to flow so long as public officials can be bought and enormous profits made in the business. Last year 322 British ships, 10 Norwegian and four French ships were engaged in running liquor to our shores. Today the National capital is the wettest spot on earth, the dry laws are the most flagrantly violated, and there is no prospect of better ment until a sane and concerted at tack is made,-not on the booze run ners, but on those government off cials who help them land it.
 Recently the entire police force of a New Jersey town were accused of rum running, the evidence being so flawless as to leave no room for doubt Yet at the trial of these men they were acquitted within a few moments after the jury retired, and are un- doubtedly engaged in liquor running today.
 Conditions are becoming worse ap- parently, instead of better the num- Der of bootleggers and rum runners increasing with the profits, and the ubiquitous hijacker levying toll from both indiscriminately. The United States is, dryly speaking dry at it's center, but oozing moisture on every border. It is surrounded by an inter- national rum fleet, who reap profits from the business, which if rightly applied, should go toward Tightening governmental taxes.
 Congress is wet at heart, but dry in exterior, it's members having no difficulty in supporting an army of bootleggers at the nations capital.
 Unless conditions change we re- commend our Territorial legislature passing a memorial to effect that the prevailing state of affairs is deplora ble and offering to send a number of special investigators to help combat the evil.
 The loose regard for law on the part of our congressman comes un- doubtedly from the fact that they be- lieve the king can do no wrong. The law is for the layman, and not intend ed to function in the District of Co., lumbia. Attorney General Stone un-

When to Send Gifts

ASOAMNA /.
NEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
- am business associate
of the prospective bridegroom.
The wedding is to be private.
with only the immediate members
of the families present. Should
my gift be sent to the brides
home prior to the wedding. or to
the new home, after the an
nouncement Is received?
2-Should the arrangement or
the forks for q dinner table be
such that one starts at the In
side, working outward, or vice
versa? INTERESTED.
TT is the best form to send your
wedding gift to the bride be-
fore the wedding, about two
weeks before. You do not say
whether or not you know the
bride, but / do want to tell you
that, even If you do not know
her, you should send the gift to
her-addressed in her maiden
name and to her home. Inclose
your visiting card or a white
card with your name written on
it. Usually the card is inclosed
without a message, but, II you
wish, you may write Best
wishes" on your card. IL you
send anything that is to be emf
graved--a piece of silver, for In
stance-it should be engraved
with the initials Of the brides
maiden name.
2-''Vice versa" The silver
pieces should be placed on the
table in the order in which they
are to be used-so that the last
one used is the one nearest the
plate. Begin at the outside and
work toward the plate" is the
useful slogan to remember. That
is why the oyster fork is farthest
from the plate on the right of the
plate, and the soup spoon next,
then the entree OF fish knife, then
the dinner knife, nearest the
plate. On the left side Of the
plate are first chat is, farthest
from the plate) the entree or fish
fork, then the dinner fork and
then the salad fork. The utensils
for the dessert course, spoon
only, or spoon and fork. or knife
and fork, are usually brought in
with the dessert.
Mrs. BeecIxman will be glad to
answer questions on etiquette
submitted by readers.
