Can It Be Enforced.
Cincinnati Enouirer.)

Cincinnati EnquirerO
 The new Attorney General of the United States says: "Now shall have prohibition!" The Presi- dent of the United States has declared it to be his intention to get at the root of the prohibition prob forcement of the law Enforcement procedure and machinery is to be placed in the hands of the De- partment of Justice, where it properly belongs.
 Those citizens numbering millions of men and women, who believe that prohibition as national legislative policy is wrong, quite as heartily in favor of an honest attempt at enforcement as are the most loyal friends of the policy.
 Friends and foes of the policy agree that such enforcement would require millions more of dollars lof expenditure annually, the creation of additional courts and the multiplication of enforcement offi cers in impressive numbers The foes of the policy declare that such enforcement effort would prove to be futile and so enormously costly that the people, including those who believe in the policy would revolt aginst oppression colossal, and for that favor the attempt believing that it would result in Hberalzing of the Volstead law that would be acceptable to the public at large.
 The Roman Caesars and many lesser auto cratic power attempted enforcement of laws which were in opposition to the sentiments of peoples and failed Perhaps the United States may be able to establish precedent. It possesses the machin- cry and the wealth If the Attorney General is right in the confidence he assumes shall indeed have legislative morality in fact The country awaits the outcome with interest, interest perhaps not Iuntainted with anxiety. The Attorney General may be wrong Then what?
 In the last analysis, whether a law is good or bad is matter that is up to the public to determine

More or Less True

AHOAC OA ACoS H uC If the present trend continues it won't be long until a bathing sui" will consist of rubber cap to keep the permanent from strengthening out.
 No matter how much she neglects him, a modern wife always is con- vinced she treats her meal ticket better than he deserves.
 The young fellow who marries a modern girl will have plenty of worries, but overweight as the re- suit of overeating won't be one of them.
 Some girls are easy on the eyes and most of them are so kind hearted they don't want your imag- nation to get all tired out, either.
 Another explanation of the in- creasing divorce rate is that too many modern wives act as if there was a no-parking sign in front of the kitchen range.
 It's a queer world, and the man who would hand over his poker winnings to his wife usually is the kind who has to borrow carfare to get home from the games.
 No telling, the girls may discard both shoes and stockings this sum- mer and if they do it is going to look funny to see all those toes decorated with corn plasters.
 A wife always thinks her hus- band is brute when he refuses to give her any sympathy for getting all tired out cleaning out corners she knows darn well the company she expects are not going to see
 His mother used to think he needed good breakfast to start the day on, but the groom soon finds his bride is sure all he needs is a cup of coffee and he can get that himself.

A JUVENILE PROHIBITION VICTIM.

One of the youngest if in fact not the most youthful of Prohibition law victims is Freddie May Johnson, 12-year-old Negro girl of Greenvie, s. c. She recently sentenced to serve 30 days in the County stockade there after pleading guilty to violating the Dry laws Appearing alone in court, unattended by counsel or members of her family, the little girl told the court she had been asked by another woman to carry bottle of liquor across the street to man who had bought it. She started her mission but before she reached the other side of the street she arrested. The judge trying the said the girl told a straight forward story and he was impressed by it, but he admitted he powerless to do other than to sen tence her. And this is but one of many cases of absurdities that go hand in hand with efforts to enforce unenforceable edict against common sense and American principles

President Harding, it was warmly welcomed by the French Government and the populace at large. In his person and in the regard and effection mutual between himself and the French was the symbol of friendship between the two nations. Many times there arose instances which, under less fortunate circumstances and in different hands than MT Her rick's might have produced friction and lessened the entente cordiale. But he was able to smooth over the difficulties which another man. equally capable but less popular with the people with whom he was dealing would have been powerless to stay. Always his tact and diplomacy equal to the occasion. Few have represented more truly their country than he did
 In honor of his memory and recognition of his many services France nation and a people paid him every tribute that love and friendship could inspire America, on the return of his body to the land he so Loyalty served will do less
