on the question of prohibition.
The incident of several years ago In
which John Philip Hill, then D. men,
Der Of Congress from Baltimore, ex-
perimented with fruit juices in the
cellar of his home is an example.
Hill contended that the Volstead act
gave the. farmer right to manufac-
ture cider and wine, but withheld 1t
from the city man. He defied the pro-
hibition commissioner by making cider
at his home in Baltimore.
When the beverage was ready he is
sued a blanket invitation to attend a
party at his home and inspect and try
q glass. Something like 1000 persons
took him at his word and came.
Later he was indicted. tried and ac-
quilted. Incidentally the present Pro-
hibition Commissioner woodcock, then
United States district attorney, was the
prosecutor.
The ruling was made In this case that
the clause of the Volstead act defining
beverages of more than one-half of l
per cent alcoholic content as illegal
did not apply to homemade wines and
intoxicating in fact"
A little more than q year ago that
fiery and peppery New Yorker in Con-
gress, Fiorella ("Little Flower") La
Guardia, issued a guide to his constitu-

counter to the prohibition law.
La Guardia's instructions were based
on q bulletin from the Department of
Agriculture on "unfermented grape

Romance of
 National Fund
Paul Weinstein Tells Story
 of Jewish Activities

1 Paul Weinstein, chairman of the
 Waterbury Council, Jewish National
 Fund of America. which is observ.
 ing flower day Saturday evening and
 all day Sunday has just released the following which tells the romance
 o fthe Jewish National fund.
 People sometimes amuse them
 selves with the calculation as to
 the fabulous wealth which a penny. invested in, say, Julius Caesars time, would have realized today. It is an interesting speculation. But how much more interesting is 1t for
 Jew to observe how the pennies of the Jewish National fund have grown into hundreds of thousands of pounds which are redeeming the
 soil of the Homeland for the Jewish people.
 It reads like a romance. It is a
 romance-a romance in history.
 Twenty-nine years ago the Jewish
 National fund was founded. Its
 basis was just a penny. Today it
 has invested 1,707,229 in Palestine; almost three hundred thousand dunams of land tell the story of it's land development activities; 750- | 900 trees speak of its affore station work; 7,250 Jewish men and wo- men proclaim the beginnings of a
 Jewish community working on the land. Nor is that alI.s. If the soil is to be drained and freed from
 malaria, it is the Jewish National fund which undertakes the work. If
 water installations are required for the settlements, 1t is the J. N. F.
 which supplies them. If land is necessary for a school or synagogue, a hostel or a hospital, a training farm or a peoples club, it is the
 J. N. F. which provides it.
 These are just a few of the open ing chapters in this romance which is gradually unfolding itself before our eyes. Three-quarters of a mill lion Jewish families throughout the
 world are playing their part in it. Wro can say what the next chapters
 will bring fourth. Where is the
 mathematician who will calculate
 what the next 25 years will yield. It is the spirit behind the fund
 which is making this romance. Its

jor tenace. The diamond four is opened and South is allowed to hold the first trick with his jack and the second trick with his queen, but the third diamond lead is stopped with the ace.
 Four clubs and two good spades are run and then. the declarer exits wins his last small diamond. North wins and is forced to lead the re- sired hearts for the final two tricks and game.
 The declarer must play his cards with great caution particularly when it becomes necessary to make his exit at the proper moment. The ex- pert usually shows his skill toward the end of the hand, when all the outstanding cards have been located.
 Against a no trump declaration, one should always return his part ner's lead unless the exposed hand shows the futility of doing so. Of course the word "always" should never be used in bridge except it be to adhere to the laws and ethics of the game.
 One obstinate Scotch player, how ever. after winning the first diamond trick, threw the monkey wrench in-

VARIATIONS IN
COFFEE FLAVOR LAID
TO BULK ROASTING
Hills Bros. Coffee Doesn't
Vary in Flavor, Because OF
Radically Different Process

It is almost impossible to keep
bulk-roasted coffee from varying In
flavor. For in bulk roasting it is
difficult to roast each big batch
alike. One lot may be slightly over
done - another a little underdone.
Naturally, they each have differ
ent flavor.
Hills Bros. discarded the bulk
method for a process they invented
and patented. It is called Controlled
Roasting, and the roast is positively
controlled. Variation is overcome.
Every pound of Hills Bros. Coffee
has the same rich, full-bodied flavor.
As the accuracy of the hour-glass
depends upon an even, continuous
flow - little at n time - so the
uniform flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee
is produced by this patented process
that roasts evenly, continuously -.
a little at time. No other process
is like it. That's why Hills Bros.
Coffee has a flavor no other coffee
has.
Hills Bros. pack their coffee in
vacuum cans. Air, which destroys
the flavor of coffee, is removed and
kept out of these cans. Ordinary,
"air-tight" cans won't keep coffee
fresh. But Hills Bros. Coffee can't
go stale. Order some today. Ask
for it by name, and look for the
Arab trademark on the can.

BE CONSERVATIVE
w. G. COSTELLO
Manager

ClTY dwellers as well as ranchers will
Vfdo well to give heed to the warning
issued by the Imperial Irrigation district
to be conservative IN using water.
With the possibility of having to pro-
rate water facing Us, every drop of wa
ter becomes more precious than ever and
II will not do to waste any of it.
There is no necessity, at least not yet,
Tor going bathlesS or raising boards III
order to save water and we certainly
hope that such condition will not come
to pass. The mere thought of hundreds
of Smith Brothers" in Imperial Valley
is enough to tax the imagination.
While the rancher is watching his step
by irrigating only when essential, the
city dweller can do his bit to help by be-
ing careful about not sprinkling his lawn
more than it requires, or washing the car
too frequently.
This does not mean that lawns and
shrubbery should be allowed to burn up,
or that the family car must go about the
streets looking as though it had spent
some time at the bottom of the Colorado.
The point we wish to bring out is that
all of us should use care. Conserving
water is not wholly a job for the residents
of the rural districts, although some of
our city dwellers seem to think that it is.
While the situation is serious enough
to cause all of US to give it attention,
there is no sense in eXaggerating it, or al
lowing it to stampede our better judg
ment. There is even a chance that we
may be able to avoid pro-rating. Last
nights electrical display over east indi-
Gated heavy storms in Arizona along the
river, and this may be the start of con-
dition that will do much to relieve the
present shortage.
