ARABIAN RULER
FORCED OUT

Hussein, King of Hediaz,
Again Exile, Being Deported
From Homeland
By GERSHON AGRONSKY
international News Service

JERUSALEM, Aug. An ex-
monarch so homeless that he lived
on a ship, went into exile once
more when Hussein, former King
of the Hedjaz, left Akaba, the
Red Sea port, on British cruiser
forl an unknown destination.
The dethroned Arabian monarch,
victim of the relentless Ibn Saud,
leader of the Wahabis, thus finally
yielded to the order delivered by a
British naval officer, threatenin., to
take Akaba and Maan by force
unless he agreed to leave following
his abdicatIon from the Hedjaz
throne.
Emir Audullah. the rule- t
Transjordania under the British
mandate, to which Akaua and
Maan are now being annexed, came
to say goodbye to his lsed father
before the latter went again into
exile.
The highest British authority
here admitted to the International
News that the Foreign Office had
brought pressure to bear on the
old ex-nonarch to leave Akaba to
seek "a more congenial. tplace to
end his days. because Fussen 3
presence in Akaba was to the
Wahabis like a red flag to q bull.
He complicated the position Of his
son, Ali, now King Of the Hedjaz,
who is in any case in a most
precarious position and hardly able
to defend Jeddah, the Arabian port
now under British guns.
Denying that Akaba and Maan
were annexed to Transjordania,
since they were always part OF
the country" the British say Hus-
sein was humored into believing
the territory HedJazian, so long as
the Wahabis did not press for
decision.
But it seems arrangements were
made months in advance for the
inclusion OF this great stretch OF
mandate over Transjordania. and
away from the Arab Kingdom CT
Hedjaz.
Abdullah, who in this way be-
comes the ruler over a much great

HERALD HARBOR
HAS CLUB
PLAN
Desirable Section Has Been
Set Aside for Communities
Association, etc.

Thousands OF dollars annually
will be saved vacationists OF Wash.
ington, who accept the novel yet
comprehensive country club plan
developed by the management 81
Herald Harbor, on.the-Severen ac.
cording to Wilson l.. Baker, jr.,
general manager OF the company.
I'm line with our policy to get
Washington people out in the open;
to have them indulge in the recrea.
ton that they need during the
summer months and at the same
time have them enjoy financial
interest in the place where they
spend their vacation, we have de-
veloped a club plan that has met
with instant approval, said Mr..
Baker.
Several business houses already
have adopted the plan and their
employees are becoming members
Of their clubs.
The plan in brief is TO enroll in
each body at least fourteen club
members. The organization is given
club unit Of fourteen bungalow
building lots, or one acre. The
management of Herald Harbor will
donate to a limited number two
lots as site for the club house,
the location to be determined by
the club members.
A small weekly payment is made
by the fourteen members until each
of them own a lot in their club
acre An additional fee pays the
cost of building the club house.
In some cases, employers favor
furnishing the club house and
grounds for the use or their entire
personnel. Others make the initial
payment and their employees assume
the further responsibility.
$40 encourage these clubs. we
have set aside one OF the most
desirable areas of Herald Harbor az
q club community" says MIR.
Baker. When an association or
business body SEEKS a club of their
own, we are able to provide an
ideal location not at the single lot.
but. at acre prices.
SHOULD an organization having
a personnel of fifty or more take
advantage of the club idea, it would
offer opportunity for them to enjoy
a real vacation at salt water sum

ing beach at an expanse so much
less than they usually are assessed
in haphazard outings elsewhere
that they would not return to work
with a depleted bank account.
"Since the Harbor is so close TO
washington. one-day outings, week
end parties and protracted vacations
at their own club property AMI
club house are possible.
"One feature that has commN1d-
ed the plan to many is that once
you are a member of the club, You
own a bungalow building lot right
at the club house, whicht is the
center OF activities. Tho lot owner
may build cottage or bungalow
for his or her family and friends
using the club house for central
meeting place.
Some business houses that are
promoting the club idea in their
organizations see in the plan an
opportunity that is approaching In
value more raidly than any Suhuf-
ban or water front property In this
vicinity
Mr.. Baker also. outlined a plan
by which a group may incorporate
their club, each share holder being
eraitled to a lot. Dues and fees
would be assessed honorary mem
bers who were not shareholders.

WEEK IN
POLICE COURT
WITH 9CASES

Although since the first of the year
business has been rather slow with
the local police force, the last week
has shown marked activity with nine
cases handled by Police Justice E. J..
Wells.
The fireworks started last Friday
when a man by the name Of Joe Mes
ter, Mexican, was arraigned on a
charge of carrying a concealed wea-
pom. He pied guilty to the charge
and was fined $25 and 50 costs. He
paid SIS of the fine and was released
on the condition that he go to work
and pay the remaining $12 within a
short time. Morris Robertson, who
was arrested on a charge of vagrancy
forfeited his $25 bond when he failed
to appear for trial. As the third
case of the day B. l.. Powers was ar
rested and tried for traffic violation.
His $12 fine was RENTED.
On Saturday w. T. Watson was
arrested on a charge Of vagrancy. He
was sentenced to serve 40 days in the
city jail, however, he was released on
Immediately. 1t is believed hat he
complied with the provision.
Three cases were tried before the
Police Justice on Monday. 1t seems
as though George Smith n Hugh
Hopkins, two negroes, got into a bit
| Of trouble in the east-end subway, at
least they were arrested for fighting.
| Both men were fined $13 and 81
| costs, which amount they paid. H.
Hardy, who was arrested for running
over the fire lose on Friday, for
feited his $40 bond when he failed
to- appear for trial.
! On Tuesday a nj who gave her
i name as Verae Cameron was arraign-
/ ed on a charge of illegal possession
of intoxicating liquor. She pied
guilty to the charge and was fined
S4S and 50 costs. She was released
when she paid the fine.
A man who gave his name as War
rem McDermott was arraigned the
same day for being drunk and dis
turbing the peace. This man has
been before the police justice on a
similar charge three times previous
to- last Tuesday. He was sentenced
to serve 60 days in jail but was re-
leased on the condition that he leave
the city for at least three months. He
had a 60 days hold-over sentence
from the last time he was arrested,
thus the sentence really amounted
to a 100 day sentence in the city
jail. 1t is believed that he left the
city Immediately and will remain
away from Rawlins for some time.

the patient. alive only through his in
domitable will after months of SUI
fering, began to plan a trip to the
coast, which he believed would assist
in his complete recovery, to which
he looked forward with utmost con-
fidence throughout. A relapse ten
days ago prevented this.
Present at the time of his death

SWEETWATER VALENTINE
DANCE WAS GREAT AFFAIR

The Valentine Dance given by the
residents of ~Sweetwater on Saturday
night of last week IA one Of the
most successful affairs of its kind
that has been given in some time.
There were a number of persons from
Rawlins, Casper. the oil camps and
the river who attended the dance.
Cars loaded with people began
gathering at the community dance
hall on the river about $3.50 in the
evening and by ten o'clock everything
was in full swing and everyone SEEM
ed to be having a wonderful time.
The three-piece orchestra from Cas-

moneys worth-even unto the hours
of the next morning.
Mr.. Burke Steed who sponsored
and made arrangements for the
dance is to be congratulated on the
wonderful success of the evenings

SCOUT NOTES

The Boy Scout basketball tourna-
mem started on Saturday February
7th and it has been interesting
than 1t was expected that 1t would
be. The Pine Tree Patrol under
Charles McDermott drew the Coyote
Patrol which is headed by Eugene
Cross. The game vas the first and
most interesting n OF any played
during the morning. At the end of
the first quarter the score was favor
ing the Pine Prees 4 to 0 but during
the second quarter the tables chang
ed and the first half ended S to 6 in
favor OF the Coyotes.
During the second half the Coy
otes defense weakened and when the
whistle blew at the end Of the game
the score stood Pine Tree Patrol %,
Coyotes 10.
The second game was played be-
tween the Eagles and Tigers of Troop
number two. The Eagles took the
lead in the early part of the game
and held it throughout, the score at
the end being Eagles Z. Tigers /.
The third game was between the
Ram Patrol under Ernest Mcneil and
the Fox Patrol under James Cash
man. This was rather one-sided due
to the fact that the Ram Patrol team
has only been together for two weeks.
When the smoke cleared up from this
battle the score stood Fox 80, Ram.
4.
In the game between the Rabbits
and the Beavers the players on both
sides we're fast and made an inter-
esting game, all four guards playing
a good game, thus no large scores
were made. The end of the first
half ended Rabbits 2, Beavers 0, and
at the end Of the game the score stood
Rabbits 4, Beavers 2.
