called prophets decided that he
would just stand on the corner OF
Broad and Fourteenth and cease to
exchange ideas with anyone because
that idea thing had been very, very
much overdone. One and all were
going around in circles,
And, as he stood there being ell
bowed and nudged by this visitor
and that he got certain impressions
and an ever so little gnat flew by
and got in his eye and refused to
come out until he had seen every
thing that the eye had observed.
The teeny-weeny gnat observed
that about every two minutes a
parade of visiting firemen or re-
treating Minute Men passed by, all
bedecked in plumes and pantaloons
and epaulettes and bright medals.
One of these parades was made up
entirely Of intelligentcia who could
look into the night and predict ex.
actly what would happen.
And ever so often the teeny-
weeny gnat would observe two in
sets going along complaining that
the tree-hollow where they were
living was one of those form fitting
booths which was neither small
enough for a straight-jacket nor
big enough for a matchbox.
Then the little bug noticed that
about every 10 minutes a rugged
faced, paunchy old fellow who wore
silver-rimmed nose glasses tilted
forward at the top, passed by, each
time going in opposite directions.
Some rank outsider nearly in
quired of another total stranger
who that sap was, and a great,
big, bullying bozo who was a po-
liceman, answered:
"Why, that's Tex Rickard, he has
to report in court every 20 min
utes to see if there have been any
new injunctions issued"
And so it was, people were going
hither and thither and yon and all
ANYBODY talked about. so faI as the
little gnat could tell resting up
there in the corner of the experts
eve. was the battle between the
great and gallant buck and the
great, big, beautiful, broWn-eyed
bruin-bear.
And what happened on the night
that they fought, grandma"' you

will put you to sleep with that part
Of the story tomorrow night.

-KLANSNAN IS
DRY CHIEF

Marion o. Dunning. of Savannah,
Republican convert and former or
ganizer Of the Ku Klux Klan, has
been appointed supervisor of the
Federal prohibition zone compris.
ing the South Atlantic States and
which may include the District of
Columbia.
Gen. Lincoln c. Andrews. Assist.
ant Secretary of the Treasury in
charge of prohibition enforcement,
has included Washington and the
State of Maryland in a contem-
plated extension Of the South At.
lantic zone system. Adoption of
the plan would place the response
bility for local prohibition enforce
ment on Dunning.
Dunning, McAdoo delegate from
Georgia to the last Democratic Ma.
tional Convention, worked for Cool.
idge in West Virginia, when his
candidate lost the nomination to
Davis.
Over multitude OF protests from
all parts of the country Dunning
was rewarded for his efforts with
the position OF collector Of customs
at Savannah, according to reports.
He is said to have been offered
the place while in washington
making a personal protest against
the appointment of another man.
With a promise from Dunning
that he would discontinue his cam
paigns for memberships in the Ku
Klux Klan, an activity for which
he was said to have received $25, 900
annually, General Andrews ap-
pointed the converted Democrat
supervisor of an experimental zone.
Friction developed between the
new appointee and B. C. Sharp,
prohibition administrator for Georgia
and the Carolinas, but these diff.
ficulties were later reported to have
been smoothed out.
With the success OF the zone
system so evident, General Andrews
has admitted that he was consider
ing extending Dunning's territory
so that it would include Maryland,
the District, Virginia and West Vir-
ginia.
