Ye Smudge Pot
By Arthur Firry . ... .
A number of I'hllttdclphi brats
ranging In age from 16 to It J yearn,
staged u Communistic demonstra
tion in Washington. IH, Saturday.
They were promptly rounded up.
lleforo they could be locked in
cells, the president directed they
be sent "home lo their parents,"
instead of sending for the parents
and putting them hi the same cell
with their offspring. This would
have afforded the flock n chance
to figure, out whether they were
In America or the Kuropcan
fatherland. The Juvenile Heds
deeply appreciated tho .action of
tho president. Their leader forth
with started to stage nnother
demonstration. Grown-up aliens
staged similar rumpuses in New
York, and had oak clulw bounced
off their heads by the police. All
tho demonstrator desire to accom
plish, Is tho downfall of the Amer
ican form of government, and, the
official disposition seems to be to
do nothing to ruffle their feelings.
Jf the foreign element can't keep
from raising hell, and behave
themselves, they should be sent
buck to Kurupo.

I've been watching that
mechanic for the last fifteen
minutes. Theren a man who
known his business, lie didn't
spill a drop of oil on tho

and left no fingerprints on it.
He wiped his hands on clean
waste before opening the door,
spread it clean cloth over tho
upholstery, meshed the gears

The killing of the festive and

READ IT ANDLAUGH!
TllDSi; who hi ame the war for national prohibition are mis
taken, aoconiinj to Herbert Ashury, a New York news
paper man, who has written a life of Carrie Nation. Tin hatohet
wieldinn and hatohet-faoed Carrie, aeeordiuir to Mv. Ashury, is
responsible, and without her efforts we would have open saloons
in our largo eities today, instead of bootleggers ami speakeasies.
Although the author does not directly say so, reading be
tween the lines of this very amusing and instrnetive book, one
gets the distinot impression that Mr. Ashury believes the Carrie.
Nation era is over and. in spite of a general digust with prevail
jug oondilions, will never be revived.
Kor in his judgment, the support of public opinion, wbieh
in spite of her lawless, bizarre and rowdy methods, made her
campaign nieh a sensational success, would not be accorded nj
modern Carrie Nation in a campaign against the liquor element
today. In fact, it is apparently .Mr. Ashury s opinion there has
been a complete moral shift, and that the balance of power is j
neut not hy tlve fanatical Urys,
Wet nor Dry, who blame the present deplorable conditions, not
on the Liquor element, but on Prohibition.
