Ah Alcoholic Drink That Is Not Banned. My Country Tl-j of Tlieo, Sweet I, an it of IJlxlriy." A Caravan of Motor Trucks For Remembrance. On July 7 there started from the While House a procession of mitt or trucks. Their final destination in San Francisco. These are the trucks which took the and cid place to a very pteat extent, of the sacred army mule in hauling supplies and munitions in thin country and abroad during the war. The war department is responsiltl" for the trip, the main ohject of which in to arouse national interest in a ser ies of ''.toads of Remembrance," roads utrtftchiiiK' nway across the country, dedicated to the remembrance of the boys who drove the trucks in the war, find their comrades. The Men of memorial rnnds is not new, but now it is proposed by the war department that the route fol lowed by the trucks shnll bo the line of the rnnd. The forestry department Is urrinif that the roads be lined with trees, and " this In the Rospel which will be preached as the caravan winds ita way westward. Cheer the trucks they pas by, for they made history! And let each r I it to build its roads nnd plant its' tiees. No nobler tie could join tht past and future. Majority Are Jap Children In California. A phase of California's Japanese problem which is tie w to most. Amer icans is presented in a recent state ment made by Senator James It. The The House bill fur the enforcement oC war time prohibition and the fed eral prohibition amendment is drastic. 'J.-penally in its inHtcnce that liquor containing more than one-half of one per cent is intoxicating. I Jut tlnire is one atritiuro exception made from which thirsty souls, particu'nrly in the iural sections may derive solace. Cider is excepted. Not sweet cider, but hard cider. This, as too many men know to their roM, is a potent beverage, whose effects, are some times disastrous beyond what mitfht be expected from its alcoholic con tent. And that content, us laboratory inquiries have established, is not a' afi ins;Kiiitu-aiit. department of Agriculture expert-) testify that fomented cider contain 8 to 10 per cent alcohol, which i' twice as much as there used to lie ii beer. Nevertheless eofij.fiess in it wiydom decrees that bei-r is dead'v is harmless. It is probably futile to inquire too closely into the operations of the con (rie:iiitnal mind on this matter. 'Per haps the "'dry" were fearful of mak ing the law too drastic, and chose U create a sort of safety-valve to eas-! the "wet" pressure and avoid retalia t tins. Or perhaps the congressmo? feared the fanner vote. At any rate, the exception stands, unless the senate rules it out. And thus cider steps into a new and hon ored ilace--or di.-bonoi ed, if yon pre fer in the list of American drinks. Henceforth it is to be the only bever age olitainuble Hindis capable of in during not, intoxication, of course, congress has settled thatbut such transient exhilaration as people havj been wont to obtain from alcohol. It needs no prophet to forete-ll n big demand for cider and an cage market for every cider-apple produced Tboso apples will not be left rotting on the ground next fall. , ; t If,. l am f.T.m V. orti,tU iTltTfTlOX o-'WHWiwa w improve miprovenieiiv '" v nc ovum ItKCOISI) ltlti:AKKi: :tritt No. lOO in ai.l i-ity in the man-l'""- "S ave"u,!

"'This means that one-third of the runt I population are substantia Ity Japanese; and, as the rural population becomes the backbone of every coun try, the gravity of the situation must appeal to' all thinking men and wo men." Japanese bulla have increased in the last ten years at an "incrcdUily higher rate than white births. This filling of the- rural districts of l.os Angeles county and presumably othur counties of California comes rihout in an interesting way. Senator I'belan explains it lis follows; 'The American door is presumably closed against the Jaiiniiese. Th' 'gentlemen's agreement' -an informal Uppeitdnge of the American-Japauesv tceaty stipulated that no laborers should be given passports from Japan, lint women jive given ):ispoits on th lighting system.
