WASHINGTON - The pacifists
" feel they have a "big navy"
president in Roosevelt, but they
try to take the fact philosophy
cally.
Expert lobbyists, they had
helped keep Congress from bring
ing the Navy up to treaty
strength. Then Roosevelt, who
had been an assistant secretary
of the Navy, came along and de-
cided to do just that.
He took S240,00O,090 from
the public works fund for the
Nsv5 60. the peace societies could
only groan. The recovery act gave
the president that power.
Pacifists then lobbied against
public works grants for the Army,
with more success.
They are all busily engaged in
promoting success for the Geneva
disarmament conference, which
reconvenes in October They are
u2ging Roosevelt to present a
strong new program.
Also, according to Miss Dorothy
Deter of the Women's Interna-
tional League for Peace and Free

Proof from Secretary of the
Navy Swanson Of his statement
that SIS per cent of naval building
expense goes to labor.
Repeal of the Japanese EXclu-
sion Act.

Atlantic Fleet from the Pacific,

Thank You
Lodge Page Publication
Is Lauded in Letter
to Times.

The Times fraternal page editor
received a letter of appreciation last
week from Itha Mcfarland, state
secretary of the Junior Order
United Mechanics, commenting on
the manner in which lodge publicity
has been handled. The letter fol-
lows:
The Junior o. U. A. M. Is in
debted to you and your paper for
the courteous treatment we received
and the publicity the order has re-
received.
Newspapers are often criticised
for not printing the news, but in
my opinion, we are to blame for not
getting the news to you men who
work so diligently to get news that
people are interested in.
The fraternal page in your paper
is one of the best pages that have
had the pleasure to read, and surely
much good will come of it. Men of
all ages are joined together for one
purpose or another and why
shouldn't we patronize the paper
that gives Us news of organizations
that are working for the very same
principles that the newspapers are
making America a better place in
which to live and rear our fam
lilies"
The Times fraternal page is pub
lished every Monday and contains

RY BRUCE CATTQM

DURING the prohibition era, any
~ old kind Of drinking manners
were more or less acceptable. But
now that repeal seems assured, it
behooves drinkers to learn what to
drink, how and when to drink it
and how to behave after drinking.
This quaint philosophy one
could write quite an essay on it, if
one had the time-is embedded in
"Bacchus Behaved, a Sprightly lit
tie book by Alma Whitaker. 1t is a
sort of handbook on polite drinking
for those who don't know the for
malities, niceties and so on.
To begin with, certain rules for
civilized behavior are laid down.
They include such bits Of advice as
the following:
Never get drunk; never drink
alone; find out what your capacity
is-and then divide it by two; never
drink when you are unhappy; as a
host, be careful to remain cold
sober; when you are in doubt about
your condition, at a party, go home
with, all speed.
Then we are told when and how
to drink what.
If you are serving wine with din
ner, don't serve more than two
cocktails before the meal begins;
better yet, serve none at all, as they
blunt the palates appreciation of
the wine.
One highbau after dinner is a
great plenty. If you are able to
serve fine wines, learn how to serve
them and be sure you serve the
right foods with them.
And so on, and so on. And if you
feel that the approach of repeal
makes such a book a necessity
we'll, here you are. Stokes is pub
fishing it at SIPS.

PYTH|AN BAND
ENDS SUMMER
CONCERT TRIPS
1888 Cities Are Visited in
Series of Five Tours
in Campaign.

Completing their good will trip,
members of the Indiana Pythian
Home band returned to Lafayette
Saturday after visiting 1873 cities
and towns in five summer trips. The
booster campaign, to acqualnt sub
ordinate lodges with the home,
commenced June 10. Carl Mitchell,
grand secretary, accompanied the
band on the tour.
AS guests of A Century of Prog
ress, the band, which is composed of
orphans supported by the Knights
of Pythias, played in the plaza OF
the Court of States, Aug. Z.
Organized Four Years Ago
The band was organized four
years ago by Professor l.. B. Elmore
of Lafayette, and he is the present
director. The band is composed OF
thirty-two boys and girls from the
home and is in charge OF w. w.
Croker and Mrs. Croker, superln-
tendent and matron of the Pyth1an
home.
The trips were made in a special
bus owned by the Pythian home and
used during the school year to
transport the children to the Latay-
cite public schools.
Many of the concerts were held
in public parks, others from band
stands in courthouse squares, some
times in auditoriums or high school
gymnasiums and on several occa-
cions in churches.
Five Win Promotions
In 1882 the band was composed
of eighteen boys and twelve girls.
Graduations changed the personnel
of the band so that this year there
were sixteen boys and fourteen girls,
including five younger children, who
had been promoted to take the
places of the older ones Who no
longer are in the band.
The trips were arranged in ad-
vance by correspondence from the
grand lodge in indianapolis.

Contract Bridge

Her selection was one club. East
went to one no trump. South bid
two clubs. 1t perfectly is all right
to support your partners third
hand club bid with FIVE, but re-
member - don't take his bidding
seriously, as his hand may contain
g singleton or a doubleton club.
West bid two diamonds - North
and East passed, and South went
to three clubs. This, in my opin-
ion. is bad bid. South has sup
ported the club bid once and Miss
Beech had made no attempt to con-
firm the fact that she held a legiti-
mate club bid.
However, as the hand was actually
played. South bid three clubs which
East doubled.
The opening lead was the eight
of diamonds which West won with
the ace. West returned a small
spade which East won with the ace.
East returned the six of spades, de-
clarer winning with the king.
Miss Beech then played the king
of diamonds and followed with the
queen of diamonds, which East
trumped with the jack of clubs.
If you were playing the hand.
would you overtrump in dummy
with the king? If so, your contract
would be defeated because as soon
as you lead clubs East will be in the
lead, will return spade and West
will be able TO get in one of his
small trump.
The correct play as made by Miss
Beech was to discard the queen of
spades from dummy, and now re-
gardleSs of what East led. he could
not make more than his ace OF
clubs. -
