TO THE VOTERS OF
KENT COUNTY:

| wish to correct some statements
that are being made by my opponent
for election to the office of Sheriff of
Kent County, namely Carroll B. Mas
sey who is the Republican nominee.
Mr.. Massey tells those from whom he
tries to secure votes that he will, if
elected, search all places where he
may be informed there is suspicion
Of selling intoxicated liquors. Also,
that he will arrest all persons sus-
pected Of 50 selling liquor. He furth-
er states whom ] will appoint my
deputy, in case ! am elected. He
further states that if | should be
elected that will not inforce the pro
hibition law
My reply to all this, Is that if am
elected to the Office of sheriff Of Kent
County, ! will serve all writs issued
to me BY tile Court, or ordered by the
Attorney General. That ! will not
violate the law by making illegal ar
rest or BY making unlawful seizures.
The Courts would not allow this to be
done more than once, but | will obey
all the mandates Of the law in that
respect.
So far as the appointment of a dep
uty IL concerned ! want to state that
the man Mr.. Massey has picked out
fox me will not be the deputy. The
man | have in mind is strictly temper
ate and he is a man who would be
only to anxious To assist in inforcing
the prohibition statutes. And yet it
IL NV purpose to submit the name Of
that man to the Kent County Demo
cratic Committee for its approval BE-
fore | appoint any one 50 that such
an appointment Will meet with their
approval One-half Of the member

Carlton Playing at
Its Best in Belgium,

Belgium is the classic land of bells.
To the Belglans belongs the honor Of
having first felt and used bell tones
as truly musical sounds, and, accord
ingly, they devised that colossal mu-
steal instrument and tower and belfry
known as the carlton. The carlton
is a set of from Is to 80 or more bells,
cast In sizes that sound each its own
scale tone. This battery Of bells Is
played from a keyboard placed In a
room below the open or latticed bel
fry, by carilloneur, as the French
call him, DR.. Henry Eames, president
Of the Society of American Musicians,
writes, in Child Life Magazine. The
keyboard is not unlike an electric
switchboard, with its handles replac-
ing the keys on an ordinary piano
keyboard, and another set Of pedal
keys, like that on pipe organ, to be
played upon by the players feet. This
carlton keyboard stands today practi-
cally the same as 1t did in the Six
teenth century, when the most famous
Of all bell-casting and carillon-playing
families-the Van den Gheyns of Bel
gium-brought the art of belfry play
