LOCAL BANK Is NOW

burglary of safes and safe deposit

"The particular gas used for this
purpose is known as C N-Federal
Tear Gas-against which no gas mask
affords any relief. Only very small

running over the county without any

P|TTMAN DEFENDS
Al SMITHS STAND
Democratic Chairman Points
to Error Made by Albert
Shaw in Magazine.

by the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 4.~-Senator Key
Pittman of Nevada, chairman OF the
platform committee Of the Democratic
national convention. today made public
a letter he had written to Or. Albert
Shaw, editor of the Review Of Reviews,
DENYING that publications charge that
Gov. Alfred E. Smiths message to the
convention on prohibition was "a bold
and sweeping Reputation" OF the
partys platform.
The letter quoted extensively from
the minutes of the platform committee
meeting to show that Senator Carter
Glass of Virginia, author Of the pro-
hibition enforcement plank. said the
plank does not commit anybody TO
the theory of prohibition" nor con-
strain or restrain anybody of the OPP
posite opinion.
Il am sure that your criticism of
Gov. Smiths message to the conven
ton was Que solely to lack of knowl-
edge of the facts attending the adop-
ton OF the Glass prohibition plank and
the construction given this plank by
every member of the platform commit
tee the letter said
There is a natural misunderStand-
ing on the part OF many editors as to
such facts This may be due in part
to the failure of the committee to make
public Immediately the proceedings in
the platform committee.
In editorial comment relative to
Gov. Smiths message you charge that
the message is In fact a bold and
sweeping reputation Of the platform
In support of such indictment you as
sert Mat as adopted. Mr. Daniels. Sena-
tor Glass and other uncompromising
drys. who were definitely opposed TO
Gov. Smith. declared the platform to
be- clear and unamhiguous Endorsement
ri the eighteenth amendment and the
Volstead act
No such declaration was made by
Senator Glass or by Mr.. Daniels or BY
any other member OF the platform
committee, and no such construction
was ever given 10 the prohibition plsnk
either in the committee or on the floor
Of the convention"

USES QUARTzLAMP
TO TREAT DOGS
Modern Science Lends Aid to
Aches and Ills of Canine
Species.

The most recent developments OF
modern science are being called into
play to diagnose and treat the aches
and Ills Of dogdom-from the lowliest
pup of mysterious lineage to the blue
blooded owners of swe-inspiring pedi-
grees
The Office Of an up-to-date veterina-
rian rivals an ordinary small town hos
pital in its assortment of medicines.
attendants and strange looking de-
vices for the treatment of canine all
ments.
The quartz lamp. until recently some
thing of a novelty in leading hospitals,
has Just been introduced here in the
treatment of ricketts,, mango and certain
forms of distemper.
DIR, William p. Collins. 2l30 P street,
installed one of these lamps about two
months ago. and since that time has
successfully treated scores Of dogs SUI
fering from one or more of three dis
eases for which it is designed.
The lamp has been highly successful
in treating Tiny Boy Harper. va1u-
able 2-year -old Boston terrier, owned
by W. .. Taylor. 3I7 N street south
west.
When two months old this dog began
to show signs OF ricketts, and by the end
of his first year Mr.. Taylor had given
up hope of saving him.
A variety of medicines and diets
were unable to check the disease. Six
weeks ago the dogs. legs and spine
had become so badly twisted and de-
formed that he was unable TO stand.
Or. Collins became interested in the
case and, when he purchased his lamp.
he asked Mr.. Taylor to let him try 7
on the dog. Now. after months
treatment. Tiny Boy is able to walk
and DR. Collins believes he will have
recovered fully in few more weeks.
One young woman. suffering from
rinsworms. insisted on holding her dog
while 1t was under the lamp. and
found that after few treatments the
spots on her arms had completely dis
appeared.
The modern veterinarian must also
be an accomplished surgeon.
In the course of a few months he
will be called upon to set broken legs
and laws. operate for foreign bodies
in the throat and stomach, remove
tumors and pull teeth.
Dogs have very small tonsils and I'M
dergo few throat operations except for
the removal Of pins. needles, bones. etc.
In every operation the dog lis given
either general or local anesthetic. de-

cause death. Ether also has this ef-

to rescue dog from a ledge IN the

The dog was on the ledge all night
and Its cries were heard by men OF

been roaming In upper Maplewood Park
and had slipped over the bank to the
ledge
In bringing up the dog 1t was neces-
sary for Panzlau to have a second rope
lowered for the animal. which was
pulled up FIRST. The man followed close

Grants Birthday

The anniversary of the birth of Ulysses S.
Grant brings to mind that failures in youth do
not always presage life that may not be
crowned with success Grant was never con-
sidered brilliant man. After graduating at
West Point twenty-first in class of 80, he
served in the Mexican war; rising to the rank
of captain, and few years later resigned his
commission in the army and settled on farm
near St. Louis. Failing to succeed as farmer,
he moved to Illinois and became clerk in his
fathers store.
With the outbreak of the Civil war, the mill
tary training asserted itself and he volunteered
and went to the front as colonel. His rise
thereafter was rapid, and after the first nota-
BILE victory of his, that of the capture of Fort
Donelson, he was commissioned a major gen.
eral, finally being made lieutenant general by
q special act of congress in 1864.
The love for humanity, the faculty of lead
ing his men by personal magnetism made him
beloved by every member of the army who
served under him. He conducted the famous
campaign in Virginia during the last days Of
the war. and though that state lay verify bleed
ing and torn by the wounds of war; his conduct
was such that, though hated as an enemy by
people of the country through which his army
passed, he was not then and has never since
been subjected to the criticism of allowing the
troops to take advantage of the people or de-
strOy their property needlessly.

Frank O. Lowden
L0wden Had to Fight Poverty as Boy

three daughters, Florence. Harriet
and Frances, and one son, Pullman.
Owns Model Farm
About the time of his marriage,
Lowden began to acquire the first
parts of his now famous Sinissippi
farm, his 5,000-acre tract near Ore
gon, ILL.,, on which he resides. The
farm is famous as q model of ef-
ficient agricultural and livestock
methods.
In 1896, the law partnership of
Lowden, Eastabrook & Davis was
formed and rapidly became one of
the best known firms in the middle
west. It specialized on business
law.
In 1900, Lowden tried his hand at
politics but was defeated for gov
ernor by the Yates-Deneen forces,
Deneen being nominated. In 1906
he was elected to Congress to fill
the unexpired term Of a member
who had died. He continued there
until 1918, when he voluntarily lc-
tired.
In 1916 he was elected governor
Of Illinois and served four years.
During his early years of resi-
dence in Chicago, Lowden met an
other young lawyer who had come
to Chicago to seek his fortune. Both
prospered, both gained fame and a
fast friendship that endures until
this day grew up between them.
That man was Charles G.. Dawes,
now vice president Of the United
States and also being mentioned for

lief work, he directed that to the satisfaction
OF county and city officials.
In his profession. he won the respect Of
his fellow physicians. They honored him re-
peatedly by election to various offices. He
fought for the honor and integrity Of his pro.
fesson and during the early days did much to
direct organization work in the medical field.
His interest in public affairs was responsible
for his election as mayor of Bismarck in most
Spirited election. Previous to that he served
as alderman. The excellent health record of
Bismarck is a result of Dr.. Smyths efforts.
Public health questions interested him. He did
much study and research work along this line.
Being intensely practical, he punctured many
foolish fads. His Characterization of the
mountebank in his profession were scathing
and he never compromised with an issue simply
to be on the popular side. DR.. Smyth pre-
ferred to go down to defeat if necessary in
fighting for what he believed to be right.
For years he enjoyed a large practice. His
advice was kindly and practical. His contribu-
tion to the profession and to public service
was no mean one. He will be missed in public
affairs as he is today by host Of friends and
associates.
