FOX BITES TWO

A small red fox bit two boys
and snapped at another during a
picnic party Thursday evening on
the Four Metals claims of the

Those injured were Tom White
and Clinton Wager. The one
snapped at was Alfred Hudgin.
The three young men, with a
party of friends, were sitting
around a campfire when the fox
came shopping about the premises.
The little animal came right up to
the campfire, and the young men
made a grab for him. In the
dark, the fox snapped at the top
of Hudgin's boots and tried to
bite him and one or two others in
the party. It finally bit White on

Establishment of new Federal
Bureau Of Property Control and an
inventory of real estate owned and
controlled by the United States Gov
ernmeht is proposed in bill intro
duced today by Representative Bloom
Democrat. Of New York He believes
that such a Federal bureau should
act as n clearing house for Govern

t,mpha sizing that the United States
Government owns approximately ten
billions of dollars worth of real estate
but that no one knows definitely how
much, Mr.. Blooms research shows
that this Government. in it's own
name. Is the biggest owner Of real
estate in the world. but there is no
central clearing house where these
records are kept nor is any attempt
made by the Government to keep a
control record of this vast property.

RUNNER FROM INLET TOWN
 MAKES TRIAL SPIN UP ID
 TOP MARATHON MOUNTAIN

Werner Ohls, proprietor of the Ohls dairy in Anchorage, another one of those fleet-footed and long distant run ming Films came over Saturday to look over the Marathon mountain pri- or to the run next Sunday. Using Brick Eckman and Ed Vogl as pace-makels, Ohls kept right behind them on the trail running up to the top on Sunday morning. The rain of the day before and the morning mist made the going rather hard but Eckman came back with the report that Ohls' wind appear ed to be okeh.
 This trio of runners, Vogl, Eckman and Ohls, hardy sons of the Scandina- vian race, promise to present to the hundreds of people in Seward next Sunday, what is believed by many will be the closest Marathon run since the race was originated All lean, hard as flint and with that hungry expres- sion on their countenances which come from hard training, here is a trio of athletes which may make local history.
 Betting is apparently about even thus far tho vogl and Eckmal may have the edge over the Inlet runner. A few of the Ohls 'backers say he ir- tends to follow Eckman up and down the 5000 foot mountain then on the final spurt, from the base to the cor ner of the Bank of Seward, attempt to bring home the bacon. The ques- tion before the house is: what will vogl be doing all this time? Verify it promises to be a beauty of a Mara thon.
 MT. Ohls left Seward yesterday fol home but will return on Saturday evening.

"Remember, they're only children"
 But when an eighteen year olc boy take a girl of the same age in- to the country in his hlgh-powereo them roadster ARE THEY?
 This is one Of the tense situations in Broken Laws" Mrs Wallace Reid's new powerful photodrama of Mother Love and the Law played al the Liberty theater tonight.
 Mrs. Reid's portrayal of Joan, the induIgent mother, surpasses by far anything this talented artist has done in the past.
 Believing that her son Bobby is still ''baby" she hurors him, but he soon demonstrates that he is no longer "chiId" and with serious re- suits that lead to some of the most dramatic scenes Of the play
 Bobby and Patsy, his little sweet heart, dash off in Bobby's new run- about. Their first trip leads to oth- CTS, and finally to a notorious roa6- house.
 Here Patsy's father finds her and takes her home. -fnury, st having lost his "giE" Bobby dashes of after them. Tn the darkness, on a lonely country he crashes into vegetable wagon killing the aged wife of the vegetable peddIer.
 Bobby is tried for manslaughter and found guilty. His mother learns, too late, that he is not any longer "chiId."
 Her plea for him, after he is con- victed, provides one of the most ef- fective bits of emotional acting seen on the screen in many months.
 It will bring home to fathers and mothers everywhere that their eight een-year-oId boys and girls are no longer "chiIdren" and that they can- not be treated as such without dis astrous results.
 "Broken Laws" is thrilling worth while drama of today.

INDICTMENT OF
WAR DELIVERED
FairvieW Christian Assem-

Declaring that either war or
Christianity must go, DR.. E. z. Vio-,
lett of Kansas City, Mo-, delivered a
stirring indictment of war in an adj
dress Sunday night at the opening
session of the Fairview Christian
Assembly at Fairview Park. He
spoke on THE Kingdom Of God and
the American Republic"
DR.. Violet branded war as ''the.
most horrible, hellish monster that
ever crawled from the bottomless pit
to wrap its Shiny arms, around hui
mainly" He declared that nations
should be held strictly accountable
for slaughter as individuals are for
murder. He said the time was COM
ing when the men who declared
wars would be made to fight them.
Lloyd George, he said, summed
up the situation when he said, Our
efforts are vain. Peace can't come
by act of assembly. 1t Is now Chris
tianity or nothing. 1t is now Christ
or nobody That is the challenge
of the present day to Christianity.
Even the most superfici student
knows that Christianity is the pur-
est religion to man. Therefore, the
religious destiny of mankind de-
penis upon America"
