 bribery of member of the Legisla- ture, or to make it crime, for a member of the Legislature to accept or solicit bribes. This is a manifest defect which should be cured by en- actment of the proper statutory pro- visions.
 "A great deal of laxity is generally shown by the election officers through out the Territory in making up the election returns. Very frequently they do not even take the oath of of flee, though the blank form therefor are furnished them. I suggest that it might possibly be worth while to pro- videt hat the election officers should not be entitled to the remuneration for their services unless they have discharged their duties in conformity to law"
 The Attorney General would limit a man to committing $35 worth of mis- demeanor before he faced ten years in prison. Or in other words a fraud ulent check for s35 would get him fined, but if he added another kopek such as $35.O1, he would do ten years for one cent. Here is the recommen- dation:
 "Chapter 20, Laws of 1925, makes the uttering of false or fraudulent checks a misdemeanor no matter for how large a sum the check may be drawn. I suggest that the crime be declared felony punishable up to ten years in the penitentiary whenever the check is drawn for a sum in excess of $35. Such amendment would har- monize this statute with other sec tions of the penal code relative to false pretense and larceny.
 "At the time the municipal code Chapter 97, Laws of 1923) was draft | ed, it contained an inhibition against payment of municipal funds to the Mayor and Councilmen for any service rendered or merchandise or other property sold, but that clause was stricken ebofre the code became law. The tendency to make such public trusts remunerative enterprises at the expense of the municipal treas ury seems to be growing into fixed habit, and I suggest it be prohibited" :"

Men Can Get Pointers from Them, Especially
 on Dress

LONDON. Dec. 21-suggestioa that men initiate their womenfolli WAS made by Lord Dawson 5f Penn, inc Kings physician, in t speech at the Royal Society Of Arts
 One of the best things We can do is to initiate our women fOll., . he said for not only have they added to the gladnass of lifc by the beauty of their dress but a number of women have improved their physique out of all propor- tion to us males.
 Also another point worth not. ing is that if takes the modern girl far less time to dress and un, dress than it does the moder | man. What would the Victoriahs have thought of a condition like that?'
 Lord Dawson said he thought that anything which gladdens the heart of man adds to his health and therefore he conld not com pletely condemn alcohol" for it too plays it's part of gladdening the human heart"

 In Montana Forest,

MISSOULA, Mont, Dec. 21- Less than million feet of me- chantable timber were destroyed by fire during the 1927 season in the forests of Montana and north. ern Idaho, forest service official report.

BIG NATIONAL SPORT
 LACKING IN FRANCE

PARIS, Dec. 21-France is a country with no national sport.
 A sporting newspaper recently held an inquiry to determine just what sport came first in the hearts of the French people. The replies were so varied and go many sports were presented for consideration that the paper gave it up and decided that the French, while the most sport-loving people in the world, had no one diversion typicalIy French and attracting all the people as baseball does Ill America.
 Football and bicycle racing seemed to have the greatest num- Der of adherents. Since Laco5ie and his musketeers have brought world tennis honors to France tennis has become more and more popular, but still cannot be sad to be a sport of the people.

LONDOrS.s Dec. 21-British dra- matic critics are fed up on Ameri. can songs about the blues. The Hallelujah song in Hit the Deck rubbed many of them raw, and they nave lambasted it very gen erally. taking the position that it isn't good taste to raid the sacred oratorios and even the Bible in search Of a musical comedy reme- dy for the blues.
 A critic writing in the Evening Standard suggests that all Ame,i- can drama should be accompanied by the blews," just as Spanish and Russian dramas have inci- dental music characteristics of those two countries.

Associated Press Sports Writer)
 NEW YORK, Dec. 21-Two football teams that together arc literally "All-American" with play CTS representing every section from the southern tip of Califos- mia to New England are mobiliz- ing for battle at San Francisco the day after Christmas.
 One of these bands of erstwhile college stars will be defending the football prestige of the East and the other the West. As al lies the East will have the pick of the Missouri Valley and Middle Western sections while the South west region, where they grow their football players hard as cac- tus, joins hands with the Pacific Coast. Proceeds go to charity.
 From his epansive Eastern foot ball realm, Coach Andy Kerr If Washington & Jefferson, general issimo of the sunrise tsoops, has gathered an array that looks like this:
 Backs Bruce Caldwell, yale's great ineligible Presnell and Howell of Nebraska; Lane of Dartmouth, the East's high SCOT CT: Bill Amos of w. & J. an1 Jack Connor of N. Y U.
 Ends E'ishwick, Yale, and Cole, Dartmouth.
 Guards -Baer, Michigan, aul Pauly, w. & J.
 Tackles Randels, Nebraska, and Douds, w. & J.
 Center-G Grigsby, Georgetown, CT Reitseh. Illinois.
 Eleven men of about equal cal ibre will oppose them with their backs up against the sunset and the. Pacific Ocean. The prospec- tive team is headed by the great Devil May" Kaer, All-American back last year at the University of Southern California.
 As Far Western conference rules do not permit a man to play in an all-star game unless he graduates the next year, the eiev- en from the West is possibly t bit older and more seasoned thaa it's opponent. Neither team ever has played as a unit before.
 Besides Kaer the squad rounded up by Coach Orin F. Hollingbery of Washington State. the western commander-in-chief, includes:
 Backs Wilson, Washington sKutsch. Iowa; Cassanova, santa Clara; Hunt, Texas Aggies; Gil- more, Army service team; Meek or Washington State; Mann Southern Methodist tTexas).
 Ends-Behrndt. Southern Cali fornia; Matthews, Texas Christian University; Sikes, Texas A. anh M; Scarlet. St. Mary's College. Tackles j. Hicks, St. Mary's; Brewster, University ofs Texas.
 Guards-Diehl, Idaho; Wright Washington
 Center-C Carrothers, St. isna tius's College. The only major section without q favorite son in one or the otnsf of these lists is the Southern Con < terence, which may have 2 pft
