ASIllikkD, Doc. 24. A very inter
eating pWjKrtun was given at the
Presbyterian church Saturday even
ins. Thfr -program began with music
by, the' ;$ujnda$r school orchestra. A
very delightful vocal solo was suns by
Miss LArhiine Brookmlller, the selec
tion boijfc;"Oh Little Town of Bethle
hem." jCter .this solo a speech of
welcomftAvas 'given by Utile Miss
Petersoitia primary, student. The
main future of the eVening was
clever IiJfo playlet, written by Miss
Lilly Mfcy Foley, entitled "Christmas
Eve In a; Toy Shop." Children of the
different classes took the different
parts. Miss Harriet Bcvington took
the leading part of the shopkeeper's
daughter, and Miss Mary Poley took
the part of "The Little Poor Girl.'
The dulls formed a very important
part in. the playlet, and thette parts
were taken exceedingly well. The play
began when the shopkeeper's daugh
ter brought the Little Poor Girl Into
the shop and told her of Christmas
and the story of Christ. They also
told each other what sort of Christ
mas they would each have. Then the
shopkeeper's daughter told the Little
Poor Girl the story that her grand
mother' had told her, about how the
dulls woke up and danced and played
between the hours of 12 and 1. Just
then the clock struck 12 and the dolls
got up and paraded -around ihe room,
sang "Holy Night' n'hd played until
the clock struck one. Among the dif
ferent dolls in the shop were: "The
Kewplo Doll," which Bald "Mama
the doll which said "Papa", a Negro
rag doll that said "Baby," a "Raggedy
Anne" doll, a "Japanese Doll" which
sang, a "Tin Soldier" which saluted,
a Jack-in-the-box which squeaked
when it came out of its box, and a
"French Doll." The shopkeeper's
daughter and the Little Poor Girl see
these different dolls doing their stunts
and both are satisfied that what the
grandma had said was true. Pricely
at one o'clock all of the dolls .run to
their places and become perfectly
still. The program closed with anoth
er selection by the Sunday school
orchestra and when Santa Claus came
in the room at the ridging of sleigh
bells on the outside, and after making
a short speech he gave treats to all
the youngsters. This playlet was di
rected by Mrs. Wilmer Poley and was
declared by all to be wonderfully
clever. Among the dolls were small
children not over three years old and
it was considered wonderful that these
little children were so still during 4. he
time when they were not supposed t
be playing. The whole program was
a great success and was very much
enjoyed by all who attended.

NEW YORK. The wii of govern
ment forces on Ruin Row, seat of
history's greatest smuggling opera
tions, an activity that since laHt Janu
ary, hns provided many thrilling stor
ies of piracy, tragedy, comedy and
battle, has netted a rich haul In ships,
liquor and men.
Conservative, unofficial estimates of
the seizures by coas guards, customs
and treasury department agents, pro
prohibition agents and policemen de
velop the following list:
Small rum-running speed boatalGO
Deep-sea craft 10
Seaplanes . 1
Motor vehicles 4 40
Men ..... 875
Cases of liquor v. 27.000
In addition to the seizures coast
guards caused more Jhan 100 runners
to Jettison their cargoes, averaging B0
cases to a boat. f .
The monetary loss to smugglers
through these captures Is estimated at
about (5,000,000. but they only laugh
at this, claiming the moss to be but "a
drop in the bucket" Worn pared to Uie
gnin of successful operations.
Runi4Hmuggling, . begun on a. small
scale off the New Jorsey coast In 1921,
was extended all along the Atlantic
seaboard in 1922, and the first big an
chorage of rum-carriers established In
the waters south of Ambrose Light
ship last January establshed the now
famous Rum Row, "tt-locntlon desir
able for the runners of Long Island
as well as for those, of New Jersey.
Nineteen rum boats,' including three
Steamers, were parked on the Row at
the height of the January trade, and
since that time there has been, always
at least one rum 'carrier out theer
doing business.
Coast guard boats launched the
campaign against the runners In the
first month, seized at least a dozen of
the craft, and smuggling became a
hazardous game.
Fedoral agents ashore began con
certed operations against the motor
truck runners, and many rich prizes
fell Into theb hands. Still tho business
continued. The gaps made in the run
nera' ranks by captures filled like a
hble dug In dry sand. Captures In
creased In number, . smuggling tn
creased In volume. ,
In the summer months a seaplane
was employed by the runners on tho
Loug Island shore for scout work.
Ono day the seaplane, disabled, made
a forced landing near a coast guard
station and was captured.
Some of the bigger craft of tho
smugglers became venturesome then
and were caught close inshore. Mor
ning was unfolding two months ago
when the coast guards-cutters on rum
patrol sighted the Tomoka, a British
schooner, about six miles off the Jer
sey beach. They chased her through
haze, overhauled her and took her
captain and crew, and "Rummy BUT
McCoy, the king of rum smugglers.
A- Week later the Dragon, a palatial
cabin cruiser equipped with radio
wireless, was captured. She Is said to
have been the mother-boat of the
swarm of small-runners, her duties
being to warn them of Impending
danger and the whereabouts of the
government craft.
The latest seizure of consequence,
the Dutch auxiliary schooner Zoe-
hond, ended the career of the trans
port used by "Mannie" Kessler, tho
bootlegger king, the shore rival of
McCoy. Kessler soon Is to -go to At
lanta to serve a term for conspiracy
to violate the prohibition laws.
