RAPS PROHIBITION LAW

Detective Ayers Crime Caused by
Dry Acts.
Prohibition is one Of the reasons
the United States has more crime
than other nations, George S.
Dougherty, famous detective, de-
clared at a speech Tuesday at the
Rotary Club luncheon at the Clay
pool.
This country would be ten times
greater than it Is today If it could
attain prohibition, but this Is i'm
possible because there is so much
grott connected with prohibition, he
said.

ROAD PETTING BANNED

Warned First, Tell Parents, Jail on
Third Offense.
By United Press
MORGANTOWN, w. Va, Nov. Z
Auto petting parties on highways
in this vicinity have been reduced
to minimum And Sheriff j. E.
Rodehaver is accorded all the credit.
The method of solving the prob
lem is simple. First offenders are
warned to do their petting in less
public places.
Second offenders must explain to
their parents, because the sheriff
tells the folks about it.
Third offenders face the necessity
Of explaining their actions to a po-
lice Judge.

AIMS AGE AND
FEB. 70 BECOME
REAL PROBLEMS

Does being born on Feb. % deprive
one of any advantage or does 1t bring
an advantage when 1T comes to the
problem of age? And how old is a
person who, for example, was born
Feb. 20, 1860, and thereby has had
only IA birthdays? Which is another
problem similar to "How old was Ann?
The foregoing questions were pro-
pounded yesterday by G. S. Neese, who
saws that if one born on Feb. % adds
a year only every time he has q birth
day. then he has an uncle who was
born many years before he was but
by counting his years by his birthdays
is many years younger than he, you
may believe that or not" said Neese,
''but here's the low down on the case
and you can scratch your own head IN
solving it. And be careful or you'll
get splinters under your nail.
"My uncle was born on Feb. 70 1860.
He will have had 16 birthdays when nc
celebrates this year. Wrong again, for
YOU were going to tell me he had had
II birthdays. Nothing of the kind.
You might not have guessed it because
1900 was not a le1p year. The rules
were against it because it was not
divisible by 400. So he has had just
Is and the one coming up makes 10.
"Now is he a 15-year-old or is he
68 and does birthday count when 1t
comes to fixing the number OF years
old you are? He was born several
years before I was but if his birthdays
fix his age then he is many years
younger"
And Ncese's little story about his
uncles birthday suggests that those
who were born ON Feb. 20 will have a
birthday this year. The query being
asked by The Dispatch just now is:
"How many do you know who were
born on Feb. 20 and who are they?"
yesterday there were three others be-
side Neese's uncle reported to The Dis
patch and when they have all been
lined up, they are to have a little
sketch with their names in the Sunday
paper.

do not usually have money.
The two were taken to the police
station at once and admitted the

position to hurry.
There are but 13 shopping days
left until the time limit will be up
