Meeting "the Crisis"
Andrew J. Volstead, author of the Volstead act, told the
Anti-Saloon Leaguers assembled at "the Crisis" convention
at Chicago that they should insist upon imprisoning pur
chasers of illicit liquor as well as sellers, 90 days for the first
offense and two years for the second, and he declared that
judges who fined violators were little better than bootleggers
Another speaker at the same convention called upon "red
blooded college youths" to enlist in the dry war to the death,
holding up murder in the sacred cause as highly commend
able. In fact, if these fanatics had their way, persons would
be shot at sunrise for taking anything stronger than one half
of one percent.
All of which shows that the more rope given to Leaguers,
the nearer they come to hanging their cause. It is a matter
of history that drastic penalties for minor offenses always
defeat their purpose. If purchasers of illicit liquor were
jailed, nearly the entire population would be in prison and
any attempt to enforce such a provision would result, not
only in the refusal of juries to convict, but in the recall of
the official snoopers and the repeal of the fool law by an
indignant populace which would be an awful calamity for
the Leaguers, who would have to go to work for a living.
Every chance the peopit get to express an opinion upon
prohibition, they vote r-ainst it in no uncertain manner. Al
Smith's popularity and remarkable strength is due, not only
to his ability, but to the fact that he is almost the only man
in high office courageous enough to oppose Volsteadism, in
stead of playing the cowardly role of hypocrite for votes.
New Jersey, which went 370,000 republican a year ago,
elects a. wet democrat as governor by 31,000, while a demo
cratic district in Maryland elects Hill, republican, to congress
because he is wet. .
Prohibition can only be enforced where the people want
it and never can be where a great majority opposes it, no
matter what the penalties provided or the millions of dollars
expended in enforcement. It should be left to the states and
home rule. Persistent effort to enforce mpopular laws
establishes official tyranny far worse than the abuses the
law attempts to remedy. )
A Queer World
An aged Colorado physician is on trial for murder be
cause he gave his 35 year old inbecile daughter an anaesthetic
that took her out of a life of pain and sent her painlessly to
sleep in the life eternal, Afraid that death would call him,
the father mercifully sent his daughter ahead and then in
dispair, attempted suicide
The dead woman's description was given in court by a
brother-in-law as follows:
"A scrap of brentliing Neali, unable to feed, clothe or otherwise
care for her own personal needs. The only exercise she over got was
when she was placed on the floor when the weathor was warm and
allowed to roll around. She couldn't talk the only time I ovor
heard Iter utter a vocal sound was once when she fell on a hot
furnaco grating. Then she uttered a. sort of, an animal sound. She
was absolutely helpless."
Yet some self-important, officious bone-head of a Dog
berry seeks to "avenge the law" by demanding the death
penalty for the broken-hearted father, whose love for his
crippled "human husk" inspired his "crime." Yet if the vic
tim had been an animal, instead of a human being, the
prisoner would have been prosecuted for not putting her out
of her misery.
The ancients used to end in infancy such wretched lives
as that of this woman's, such as have neither mind nor sense,
cannot hear, see, talk or walk and are doomed from birth to
hopeless idiocy, to a life of pain, a burden upon loved ones
and society, but nowadays at public expense we build insti-
' tutions and maintain doctors and nurses to prolong their
helpless existpnee, even though we know their feeble span
of useless life is limited. It s a queer world.

A N1CW frUHN OP AFFAIRS
When Alurle looked back ovor
her llfo aho felt Unit It had taken
a now turn on the red dawn of that
morning when eho stood with Bob
Run tl nil In his library window,
looking out over the city. It was
In that moment thnt his lovo for
her nuulo itself part of her lire,
part of hor vory being. And It wna
In that moment, too, that she bo
gan to caro for him.
Not to lovo him as she did Hilly,
but to lovo him ns a rcnl friend.
Before thnt tlmo sho told herself
that she ought to try to mako her
self caro for him; now "sho begun
to enro without trying, boeauso of
his Id ml news to her, his tenderness,
the companionship that sho had
never enjoyed with any other man.
She began to seo how marriage

tion, without passionate love that
so many people feel Is a necessity,
and which lands bo many mar
riages on the rocks, but with un
derstanding and congeniality as the
baala of a real life together.
They breakfasted together, chat
ting over their coffee and toast as
If there had been no deeper mean
ing between them, whllo tho grow

tho eloctrlo drop lights seem more
and more garish. When Marie roue
from the table Handall turned off
the Inst of the light, nnd only the
early morning sunlight Illuminated
the room.
ITo summoned his enr by phone,
and was putting on his coat when
she turned to him quickly.
"No, don't come with me," she
said nppeallngly. "I'd so much
rather you wouldn't. I Ican't n y
just why, but I'd rather be alone,'
please. I want to think.
lie bent his head In submission,
knowing that the thing she wanted
to think of wns the scene thnt had
taken place between them only a
fow momenta before. Ho was de
lighted that she wanted to bo n'.one
with thnt new memory; it promised
well for the future!
Driving homo through tho dawn
lit streets, empty of all but enrly la
bororfl, milk wngons, and a few
rovellcrs returning homo from a
night of galely, Ma tie tried to put
her thought In order. It would
complicate matters to have Bob
Handall come Into her llfo ngnln
Mrs. Lindsay might look with sus
picion on their friendship, nnd
Marie hid no intention ot explain
ing It, or of revealing hor true
identity to her employer. This
might mean hunting for a new -position
of course, but she was will
ing to fnce that. During the night
sho had realized what Hob's friend
ship meant In her lonely life, and
since he had found her ngaln
thanks to no effort of hers she told
heroselt that she had done her part
nnd would no longer refuse to ac
cept what meant so much to her.
lleaching home, she bathed and
dressed, and walked back to the;
Lindsay home, she wns not tired
after her night's vigil with Made
line; the brief rest that sho hnd
enjoyed on the couch in Hnndall s
library had more than refreshed
her. And being with him hnd
meant more than a week's rest
could have.
Renehlng the Lindsay home, she
went to Madnllne's room. Tho
child was nivake, and had Just
asked for her.
"I knew you'd-come," she said,,
laying one little hand in Marie's.
"Mama said you wouldn't, but I
knew you would."
Marie glanced at the nurse, who
nodded pleasantly, and glanced
toward an adjoining room, from
which, a moment later, Mrs, Lind
say emerged with her husband. Ob
viously she was surprised at seeing
Marie.
"I wish you'd come to me In my
sitting room at ten o'clock, Miss
Lane," she said, speaking far more
politely than she evor had before;
when addressing Marie. "Madeline1
is so much better this morning that:
I'm sure she can spare you." I
Marie knew that tho change of
manner was due Mrs. Lindsay s
discovery that she and Bob Ran
dall were friends. Bob's social po
sition was unquestioned, although
he cared little for society and was
so busy with his practise that he
went out very little. If Mrs. Lind
say could make a friend of him,
it would greatly help her In hor
campaign for acceptance by the
Four Hundred. And if this girl
whom she had engaged as a gov
erness for Madeleine knew him,
that acquaintance could perhaps
bo used to advantage Marie could
follow Mrs. Lindsay's reasoning
without difficulty. i
On the other hand, Mario might
bo some little nobody whom he
had gathered up out of nowhere
therefore Mrs. Lindsay would bo
very careful indeed to find out just
where she stood before going too
far with her, Mario was amused
at the other woman's tactics, and
an hour later as she walked down
the softly carpeted hall that led
to Mrs. Lindsay's sitting room she
wondered with Interest what the
interview would bring forth.
Tomorrow A Rush Promise.

singers, including guests from all

attempt at compensating for de
sires ot an emotional and neurotic
thrill and thus satisfies a psycho
chemical demand which Is latent
in each normal individual. In an
attempt to satiate the emotional
and jazz hungry rubllc, a variety
of very select musical numbers of
that species will be offered in the
Mill City high school carnival
Tuesday eveniug November 10.

chorus mannerisms are Gwendo
lyn Flook, Edith McConnell, Mar
ion Mllsip, Myrtle McLane, Mary
Hall house and Greta Glenn, Popu
lar songsters depicting characters
of the songs will be Arthur Mason,
Dan Olln, Goldie Champ, Roso
Smith, Idris Elder, Janice Dunnl
van, Ida Walter and Lulubel Dun
nivan. This program number fu

An evening's fun is absolutely as
sured to anyone wishing to chance
their nervous constitution against
an array of surprises and thrills.

services for D. L. Bailey, who met
death here Thursday from a rifle

age, closed the doors, started for

came back and picked the gun up
by the muzzle, the hammer prob
ably scraping on a board causing
the gun to go off, shooting him)
just over the heart. The rifle had
a shell in tho chamber when Bail
ey borrowed it. Mr. Bailey had
most of friends here who are deep
ly grieved over the affair. Mrs,
Bailey Is in a serious condition as
a result of the shock, and Is at the
home of her parents here, Mr. and
Mrs. E. Dunnlvan.
