Imagine the fight put up by the op posing forces the prohibition people oncl a whiskey trust! This conflict be tween the national prohibition people and whiskey trust constitutes one of the thrilling incidents in "The Man Who Forgot." Congress is seen in action, with the members in fiery speeches and nearly in personal con flict. The galleries are seen crowded witn interested spectators and mem bers of the prohibition forces are aecn parading the Washington streets to the capitol there by their presence to give added force to the efforts of their representatives in Congress.

Dear Father: I am now enrolled at the United States Military Academy but from all that I can gather, I don't amount to a wholo lot. I had a nice time in New York but only stayed there about twenty-four hours and came up on the West Shore railroad to West Point. It is only about forty miles and very pretty, al though I don't think that it compares with the Columbia. The grounds of the Point look beautiful nt attention and do not do any slouch in gover.
