 Border Towns Surprised
 Albany, N. Y., June 19 R-Pres- ident Hoover's appeal to communi- ties along the Canadian border "to help the treasury to prevent the systematic war being waged by in- ternational criminals against the laws of this country" caused con siderable surprise in some quarters of the borderland.
 Officials of cities along the inter others in northern New York, how ever, quickly promised cooperation.
 Ready tO Help
 John H. McGauley of Plattsburs near which Arthur Gordon, 2?, was shot fatally last Saturday, said: The city of Plattsburg has at all times stood ready to aid federal au- thorities in enforcement Of law. II have, within the past few months. been compelled to protest to Collector Tulloch (collector of tho port of Ogdensburg) of the customs department against promiscuous uses of guns in the hands of en- forcement officers chasing law breakers through the streets of this city and using their guns as though they were on the open road.
 Promised Protection
 Collector Tulloch has promised to see that the citizens of this city have protection. Nevertheless, sev- eral shootings have occurred since that time. As to cooperation. We re- gard ourselves as good citizens of the United States and stand willing at any and all times to aid the president, even without being re- quested. in the enforcement of all laws"
 The presidents appeal "came as a distinct surprise to residents here" said Police Chief Herbert s. Myers of Ogdenburg.
 There has been, of course, spas- modic liquor running and alien smuggling along the Canadian bor- der. but this reference to a systema- tic war is the first we have heard about it.
 Mayor w. Allan Newell, declined to comment.
 Said J. C. Wilson. mayor of Ro- chester: We will be very glad to cooperate in any way to enforce any and all laws. including the prohibi. ton law. We are doing our utmost to do so at the present time and jn- tend to continue"

GET OUR BEST SHVERWARE
FOR POOR GUESTS, SAYS POET

Just because a housewife is hav-
ing poor friends for dinner, she
should not just "serve anything" and
keep the best silverware locked up,
says Edgar Guest, poet philosopher,
declaring in The American Magazine
that "You can't have fun alone"
"Of course the poor friends are
not used to STYLE" he continues.
"They never get chance to see it
in action. You are their stylish
friends, but you keep all your style
for the higher-ups. Don't do it.
Pull out the good silver for the
folks who don't have it at home.
Light the candles in the best sticks;
get out the costly dinner service and
the shining glass and get up a real
dinner for them. They'd like to see
that good silver; they'd like to han
die it. They'd like to try their appe-
tites on course dinner. If you
have really asked them out to make
them happy, go the whole distance.
Give them the best you have, that's
hospitality.
81 am quite sure that the only
really good things in the world are
those which you can share. Try to
go it alone and you'll find yourself
in miserable company. The funny
thing you have seen is of no value
until you have told it to another. The
solitary laugh yearns for an echo.
"The garden is lovely today. Keep
the flowers to'yourself and they'll go
to seed before the week is out. So
you gather an armful Of them for
your friends. What good are flow
ers if you don't give some of them
away? Who would want the love-
liest garden in the world if he had
to look at it alone?"

How to Kill Your Post: - When
an affair of any kind is going on tell
everybody money is being wasted on
blow-outs which make a big noise
and accomplish nothing. When there
isn't anything going on say the Post
is dead and needs can tied to it.
Don't ask for ticket to an affair
until they are all sold. Then swear
you've been cheated out of yours. If
you do get a ticket don't pay for it.
If asked to sit at the speakers table
modestly refuse. If you are not ask
ed resign from the Post.

Last week we read in the paper of
how the Doctor in Byrd's Expedition

these two ought to get together and
compare notes.

The Legion is now making plans

Spring FroHcs

Washington, our capital, is beau
tiful at any time, but it is at its best
in spring. Just now the celebrated
cherry trees are past the blossom
ing time, but all the other species of
which this country can boast have
found place along the avenues of
this city. 1t is certainly the ideal
time for trip to Washington, and
many of our residents took advan-
tage of the excursion on Sunday.
The weather was not very favorable
bat most of the sightseeing is done
|by busses anyway, so the weather
does not mar holidays like it did a
few years ago. Our capital is like
treasure box, each one of the show
places a rare jewel that we never
tire Of seeing-the Capitol, the
White House, Congressional Library,
Washington's Monument, Lincoln
Memorial, and many others that are
there to enjoy for the asking.
