CLEANING UP GAMBLING
 DEVICES

Actuatad by the pronounCement ot Prosecuting Attorney J. G. Woods 10 the effect that gambling in the cily must cease the police have been busily rounding up those in offensive looking punchboards and slot machines, more or less familiar sights 10 everyone who has had oc- casion to visit some of the smaller candy anl cigar stores about the city.
 Nine places of business lost their boards through condemnation pro- ccodings during police court session yesterday and the alleged owners or stores where three slot machines were seized must face the court and tell their story next Monday.
 Gambling through the use Of boards or machines must stop, it has been ruled. It is illegal. action must be taken. Unquestionably there arc times when the urge 10 get some thing for nothing" is detrimental to the child or youth whose character is being formed, who is basing what he is going 10 be in life through observing what IS going on about him. And it is not encoura ging to prove to a child that he can set something for nothing.
 We are not thoroughly familiar with the particular system in vogue on the condemned boards but we are willing to take a little gamble ourselves that they are destined to return to the owner many times the value Of tho prizes that are offered. IT the average child could be shown the futility of going up against such 5 gamble as is offered, we would do well 10 leave the boards in sight, thus teaching caution. But the losses are forgotten while the gains are counted as continual, It is just as well that the petty devices arc put out Of sight and out Of mind.

one Of the greatest instincts of humanity (pcrhaps tho most tangible indication that we have that there is something to religious tcachngs) Is to have an object to worship, adore and look up to.

the right 10 exercise the franchise It is absurd 10 claim that the regis tration of S0,0oO of Chicago's 15O,- 600 Negroes indicates a higher sense Of civic duty there than in Ala bama. The difference, and the sole difference, in the numbers register cd is the attitude Of the white man toward the federal amendment. In other words the Negroes in Chicago are permitted to register and Note- the Negroes in Alabama are pre- vented from voting.
 How is it done? By various de- vices. In smaller communities the registrar Of voters keeps his books at his home and just refuses 10 see the Negroes, with the thin excuse delivered by a servant that he is not home. Other states require that each Negro voter shall be Nouchcd for by two white citizens. It is practical ly impossible for the Uould-be voter 10 get these recommendations, for, as Horace Mann Bond says, the very fact that the Negro desires to vote, thus mcddlng in 0t,2t for generations has become khONn as white folks business is enough 10 stamp him as an undesirable per son, a bad and uppish niggcr.' ' To make it even more emphatic and certain in the mind Of the sAeptic, numerous southern writers and speakers, including several mcm- bcrs or Congress, have admitted that the Negroes arc not allowed to vote and boldly insist that 'whitc supremacy must be upheld in this way.
 White supremacy is another question, the merits Of which can be argued at great length. The point IS that the 18th Amendment 10 the Constitution is being violated, boldly, openly. brazenly. Take it or leave it, ye radical drys the fact cannot be denied that an unpopular law in the South has been and is being broken and will continue to be broken, probably without even the murmur Of a complaint reach ins the sacred portals of Congress. at present so busy keeping the coun- try "bone dry"
 The South shouts and froths at the mouth at the 'criminals' who violate the prohibition law. The Anti Saloon league and the w. C. r. L. and the other temperance organization. almost have the Il; taste to gloat over the prohibition killings. Strangely, many of the members of the ministry join in the fight. forgetting that prohibition is not temperance and will not be until it IS 100 per cent effective. Ten years have shown little improvement, judging from the number of speak easics in Connecticut-or almost any of the eastern states, for that matter.
 Until the South can approach the prohibition question with clean hands. the sentiment of it's people will carry little weight with thinking citizens. Until the northern "drys' can present arguments more con- vincing than the sugar coated as scrtions that prohibition is Narlously a "maryelous success" and should have a fair chance.' most of their really honest facts will be regarded with suspicion. Apparently they arc not going 10 be satisfied until America is an armed camp" as Maj. Gen. Edwards puts it.

 Since 1919, when he first came to Holy Cross, athletics at the Wor- ccstcr college had been on the up- grade.

WHY EINSTEIN INTERESTS

When q mob of 4,500 people tried to storm the American Museum Of Natural History building in Now York about q week ago, all because the Amateur Astronomers associa- ton was offering a free showing Of q motion picture film describing the Ejnstcin theory, there was plentiful editorial comment on the reason for the rush.

The average listener probably didn't even Glrc the gentleman chance 10 begin, but turned the dial and got some music. The few who fingered for a minute or two. how ever, heard a rather extraordinary address IL IS doubtful if many in- lclligent people who got the first few para graphs tuned the speaker out
 In plain. everyday terms the speaker launched into discussion Of the Einstein theory as it relates 10 astronomy.
