DRY LAW POLL
NOT ATRIAL,
VIEW OF MILES
League Attorney Advances
Reason for Anti Wet
Vote of Indiana.

How Indiana is one Of the few
states polling the largest figure in
The law enforcement column of the
Literary Digest prohibition referen-
dunn was explained today by E. A.
Miles, attorney for the Indiana
Anti-Saloon League.
Contrary to advice from the Ma
tional Anti-Saloon League, the In
diana dryg have been asked by
Superintendent c. H. Winders Of the
Indiana league to vote when they
receive a Digest ballot, Miles said.
Today the Indiana poll stood
1879 for enforcement, 1864 for
modification and 14,608 for repeal,
making a total Of 49,051. The COM
bined wet and moist vote exceeds
the dry by 9,493.
Miles explained that neither DR..
Winders nor the national officials
of the Anti-Saloon League feel that
the poll is of great significance.
Il have spent a great deal of time
in the smaller towns and in the
country recently and there are few,
if any, ballots being sent out there,
Miles commended. They are going
to the cities and largely to the wet
centers, in my opinion.
II know Of no woman who has
received one"
The national dry organization, in
asking its members not to vote, has
prepared the perfect alibi. it has
been pointed out. Should the drys
win, they can say this was without
their participation, and should they
lose, they can point out that they
didn't vote.
Under Winders' ruling this will
not hold good in Indiana.

PRIEST ID FEED TWELVE AT MEAL
Pittsburgh Pastor Invites Desti-
 tute Men to Dinner

Pittsburgh, Dec. A LP,-Twelve men will sit at a Christmas feast with Rev. James R. Cox in the par ish house of old St. Patrick's church here tomorrow.
 The board will be heaped high with turkey. cranberry sauce and all the other good things of a Christmas dinner. The guests will be clad in new raiment, and there will be nothing to indicate they arc other than prosperous men, accustomed to a feast such as that before them.
 They are not Father CoXs parish toners. They are destitute men, un- employed and some homeless. But for the bounty of their host, they might be facing the prospect of little soup and crust of bread on Christmas day.
 Father Coxs guests were selected by lot from a group of moro than 900 men who were fed at the church yesterday. They received new, warm clothing today as gifts from the priest.

BIRTH OF CHRIST
 NO1 IN DECEMBER
Occurred in Warm Weather, Local Pastor Tells KiWaniaDS

Christ was born four or five years B. C. (Before Christi; he was born
 in the summer or at least during
 warm weather and not on Decem-
 Der 25. and the wise men did not see
 him for at least a year afterwards. Nobody knows how many wise men , there were nor from whence they came. Mary was not the wife of
 Joseph on the historical trip to Bethlehem, but the Star of the East is a historical astronomical fact, ac- cording to Rev. William H. Alder son, speaking to the kiwanis club at the annual Christmas party to- day.
 Rev. Mir. Alderson said the date was selected as of December 25 to coincide with a popular Roman holiday. although it was known that | the birth occurred while shepherds
 were watching their flocks. which were sheltered indoors during the winter.
 He said Mary and Joseph were be- l trothed which was equivalent to l marriage in those days, that the birth occurred several years before the year one, and that conjunction l Of stars occurred on or about that | time, which proved the existence Of l the famous star.
 Has Wide Significance | He also stated that Christmas | had come to have a wider signifi- canoe than merely a part of the re- | ligious belief known as Christianity, that it meant something to Gentle and Jew. Mohammedan and Con- fucian alike. The teachings Of Christ were drawn from many gen. erations of a Jewish background and the whole Christian world comprised territory at that time smaller than the state of Connecticut. he said l He closed with a graphic descrp- 1 tion Of q. dream of man who saw a vision of a world desolste because there was no Christmas and no com- | ing of Christ which made it pos- sible.
 Dr. 4. S. Grant reported that the kiwans club today had distributed Christmas dinners to 30 needy fami- | lies.
