POST-SEASON BASKETBALL
 GAME IN NAT LAST NIGHT

The Hoonah A. N. B. hoopsters defeated the local A. N. B. boys at basketball in the Nat last night by the score of 42 to IA. Through out the game the visitors played a good brand of ball. Every man from Hoonah tailed points for his team, but in that respect, special mention should be given to McKin- ley who alone amassed 20 points.
 While deliberate accurate passing and consistent shooting character ized the playing of the Hoonah team, just the opposite may be said of the local boys. Lack of organization was sadly in evidence. Joseph was high man for them and

DID YOU EVER STOP
TO THINK
BY Edison r. Waite

George 9. Handy, publisher of the
Ypsilanti tMichigan) Press, says:
Buying at home is the keynote of
the small town symphony. It's like
giving money to the baby to put into
the family bank. It all comes back.
And In the meantime you have rem
dered the baby service, helped him
a little In the education of thrift,
given him the pleasure derived from
handling money, cheered him. Those
are among the biggest things in life
thrift and pleasure
when our boy was small he found
pleasure, as all real boys do, In spend
ing money. We discovered that what
he bought was not of so much i'm
portance to him as the privilege of
spending Some boys are that way,
you know, even after they grow up.
He made his penny and nickel de-
posts in novelty bank and when he
accumulated quarter we took him
to the bank and showed him where
he could spend It, There was thrill
In pushing that quarter through the
window, watching the clerk count all
those coins he treasured, and then in
dealing with the bank, of standing in
line with business men Of the town
and grown women and spending his
money at the same window and in
much the same way that they did.
well, this banking business is big
business, and so the lesson in thrift
went on and the spent lot of money
and got the pleasure boy wants and
should have in spending money and
still he has the money and some in
terest besides. He spent his money
and still kept It,"

THEATERS
LIONEL BARRYMORE
AT vASHCN THEATRE

Lionel Barrymore is featured as the
master killer in Guilty Hands,
Bayard Veiller's new mystery drama
which will be shown at the Vashon
theatre as new Metro Goldyn- Mayer
offering Friday and Saturday, October
2-3.
In this startling murder thriller
Barrymore contributes, In the opinion
of this reviewer, the best performance
he has ever given upon the screen,
His Characterization of the veteran
prosecutor and attorney, facing the
necessity of killing a man himself,
rises far above the dramatic heights
of all his earlier efforts, even includ-
Thg his personal triumph in "a Free
Soul"
w. s. Van Dyke directed the mystery
picture with splendid Judgment and
adroit use of unusual camera angle
and sound effects to strengthen the
paiilement and mystery OF the original
piece penned expertly by WELLER. This
is the most striking story of its kind
to come to the attention Of the re-
viewer and certainly the most novel
picture to reach the talking screen in
many months.
Kay Francis and Madge Evans head
the splendid supporting cast, Miss
Francis playing the part of Barry
more's feminine nemesis and Miss
Evans acting the part of his daughter,
paired with William Blackwell in ro-
mantle interest. Included in the cast
are G. Aubrey Smith, Polly Moran and
Alan Mowbray.

HURLEY DEBATES
EDITORS CHARGES
U. S. Land Leases Contain
immortality Restriction,
Secretary Says.

BY the Associated Press
Secretary Hurley today debated with
Nelson Rounsevell, editor of the Pan
anna American. the latter's charges that
the United States owns land in Colon,
Panama, on which saloons, orewerles
and brothels are located.
The Secretary contended every lease
made by the Government in Colon con-
tanned a clause preventing use Of the
property for immoral purposes. He said
that was as far as the United States
Government could go, because it did not
have sovereignty over the city of Colon
and was not charged with enforcing po-
lice regulations.
Property Sale Urged.
Rounsevell said the United States,
which owns the property through the
Panama Railroad, should sell it. He
commended 1t was one of the sore spots
in relations between this Government
and Central American nations.
Hurley said he thought the effort to
have the United States sell the prop
erty was an attempt by some to get
cheap land" and that 1t had been

land away because of the criticism.
The Secretary opened the debate,
which took place in conference with
newspaper men, by challenging news
paper story saying Rounsevell had
charged the saloons and brothels were
operating in the Panama Canal Zone.
Disposal Considered.
Rounsevell said his charge had re-
ferred solely to the City of Colon,
which is not part of the Canal Zone.
Secretary Hurley said disposal of the
land was now under negotiation be-
tween the State Department and the
Panama government
The Panama editor questioned
Hurley's statement that all leases pro-
hibited use of the property for i'm
moral purposes, saying they did not
prevent the use Of the land for brew
cries and saloons.
Hurley replied that prohibition was
not a part of Panama law and such
use of the land was not immoral.

MEXICO CITY, July 27.-Gov.
Adalberto Tejeda of the Mexican state
of Vera Cruz, who narrowly escaped
death Saturday when a youth emptied
a gun at him in Jalapa, state capital,
has issued a manifesto blaming Cath
Ollie Church dignitaries and the clergy
for the disorders that eliminated in
the killing of two priests in reprisal for
the attempt on his life.
Stubbornness on the part of the clergy,
according to the manifesto, is exasperat-
ing non-Catholics. who demand that
the recent law fixing one priest for
every 5000 inhabitants be made
effective
Though the religious war going on
within the state of Vera Cruz between
Catholics and anti-Catholics is not in
the field, resort to violence and frequent
clashes are taking place.
The attempt on the life OF Gov.
Tejeda and the subsequent murder OF
two priests marked the day when the
new religious law became effective and
the clergy replied to the governments
demands for the names of Is priests
who were to be the only ones entitled
by law to conduct religious services
within the whole state.

truck, two automobiles and $4,000
worth of liquor, seized yesterday by
police in gun battle with rum-run-

at them and they fired back. Soon an

detectives and the group closed in on
the truck.
Seven men jumped into the water,
but six were recaptured. One man was
shot. The other seven men were found
hiding behind a truck.
