WASHINGTON-"I hope we can

Wayne B. Wheeler once remarked to

Hell be drunk most of the time,
but he'll be sober enough to vote

This jocular remark, which re-
ferred TO recently departed senator
whose memory is so venerated that
it would cause fearful row to
mention his name, was indicative of
Wheeler's methods.
To Wheeler the cause of prohibition

success. Poisoned alcohoi, double
jeopardy, defeat of distinguished and
valuable senators in favor OF pub
licly "dry" but personally wet
nentitieS-Wheeler firmly believed
that all these methods were ethical.
He never expected majority of per-
sonal drys in congress and didn't
worry about it.
Until the end, Wheeler devoted his
great talents to defeating those sen.
ators, congressman, governors and
ether officials who weren't right
with the league. Instances were m

He forced the distinguished Senator
Underwood of Alabama into private

BY RODNEY BUTCHER, NEA Service Writer

When Senator Stanley, of Ken
lucky, attacked the league, a few
blasts from Wheeler were enough
to crumple his machine and elect
the very dry Barkley, much to
Stanley's astonishment. So with
many others.
The leagues oratorical Battalion
Of Death" was always ready to tear
into a candidates district and an
nihilate him. When Wheeler went
himself and told the church folks
what bad, wicked man their rep
resentative was.
More often than not, such drastic
measures weren't necessary.
"All we ask is your support Oh
this one question:" Wheeler would
say to his quarry. Eve don't care
how you vote on anything else Your
constituents are dry They want this
legislation to pass We know them
better than you do. If you're with
them, they'll be for you. And if you're
against them, they'll defeat you. Re-
member, all we want is your support
on this one great moral issue"
Then, if the fellow wasn't Convinced,
wire was sent back to the leagues
representatives among his constitu-
ency. Clergymen thundered at MIN
from their pulpits The w. c. T. U.

grams began to come in to the poor

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE
AN AvoWAL

1 have learned that the guild of
aquarists-
A name that's new one to me
Declares that to quake at the sight
of snake
Or from similar reptiles to flee
Is sign that we don't understand
them
A thing that it deeply regrets;
And it further observes we should
master our nerves
And keep boas and pythons Tor pets
It may be, that the heart of a
python
Is loving and gentle and mild,
No doubt it is true that no harm
he would do
To the smallest and tenderest child
But there's that in the look of a
creature s
Like the glare of a cat at a mouse
My meals would lose zest and I'd
have little rest
If I kept one at large in my house
We ought to love all of Gods crea-
lures
But to gaze on a SinuouS snake
As it wriggled its way through the
rooms every day
While it followed along in my wake,
Would fill me with Shuddery tremors
And a sense of empowering dread
I'm not easy to scare, but never
should dare
Give python pat on the head.
I could possibly harbor a lion
If confined ir an iron barred lair,
But I'd suffer with fright if I woke
up at night
When a python crawled over my
hair.
So in spite of the guild of aquarists-
A name which to me is quite new
Though I may be unkind, I have
made up my mind
! will not keep a python. Will you?

BEST RESULTS GAINED
BY EARLY MATCHING

Study of the returns on Poultry
Record Farms last year brings out
the need of special attention to the
rearing Of the chicks" says Cora e.
Cooke. poultry specialist of the agri-
cultural extension service of the Uni
versity of Minnesota.
"This is the time to prepare for
the coming Matching season. Last
years work shows, as always, that
Matching must be completed early for
the best results. June and July
Matched chicks were sources of loss
in practically every case. They must
be carried far into the winter before
they can be expected to lay.
"Now is good time to give the
flock one more culling. In every
flock there are some birds that are
not desirable as breeders. They
should be culled out now. Those who
have a breeding pen from which to
obtain their Matching eggs should
be making their final selection. Make
sure that the male birds are the best
available"
