What a mess the country is getting into by Daugherty's ubiquitous booze rulings. The latest is that ships are to be allowed freedom in medicinal liquor supplies' though the president issued an order to banish all liquor aboard ships. Why is it necessary to have medicinal liquor on a ship any more than on a train and who decided that liquor was a medicine anyway? If the prohibition amendment bans liquor from the country it seems peculiar that ships are permitted to cary tt for medicinal purposes. The motto of the United States seems to be "Hands Off Other Countries," in everything but the liquor question and Attorney General Daugherty seems to be determined to hunt trouble for the United States in banning liquor on foreign ships. These countries may naturally be expected to resent any United States attempt to interfere with their ships carrying liquor aboard for their own use and resent it they -will to a degree that may astonish Washington, sooner or later.

vanced objection that if it were not sold it would be stolen anyway. Moreover for everyone who feels that no one should carry a weapon but a man on police duty there is someone else who boiieves that Americans inherit a handiness with guns and that the ordinary citizen ought to be at least as well armed as the thug. Mixed with what is right are question of expediency and practicability. The Capper bill had the merit of attacking the matter from a sales standpoint. It provides that the dealer must know the purchaser. Also it provides that aliens and persons convicted of felonies shall not be allowed to possess arms. It may be that the Capper bill will suggest ways of strengthening the state laws now on the books. At any rate if the bill reappears at the next session and other states take action, as they will be urged to do, a great mass of evidence, data and argument on the ?ubject ought to be forthcoming. -It is recognized that it is easier to draft legislation of this kind than it is to enforce it- But if legislation can-do anything toward abatement of miscellaneous target practice by potential murderers certainly it ought to be drafted.

KEEP YOUR EYE UPON THIS. A movement is on to urge the various state legislatures at the next session to adopt a' uniform law, dealing with the sale and possession of firearms and modeled after the Capper bill introduced just before the adjournment of congress and intended to apply to the District of Columbia. How far te sale and carrying of firearms sholtxd be restricted is a question with as many angles , as there are commentators. Cities cursed with a criminal class sufficiently large to be a community element have adopted various expedients for the taking of deadly weaponsfroin persons engaged in the promotion of banditry and violence and leaving them in hands where they properly belong. Local laws commonly ignore the fact that someone sold the weapon to the criminal, probably on the frequently ad-

TALKING MOVIESV France, England, Germany and America are at war again. This is the sort of conflict that we may applaud it is an international race to produce talking movies. Our bet is on the Yankee, Dr. Lee De Forest. In the recent international disagreement, you may remember that Chateau Thierry and St. Mihiel were followed by November 11. Dr. De Forest uses a little glass tube, which he calls the "photlon," fitted inside the camera, and which develops a powerful violet light. The voice, picked up by microphones, is transmitted to the tube. The violet light, modulated by the voice current, makes the sound wave which is photographed. But the Britishers have developed something almost as good. Leon Gaumont, in France has a synchronizing device for operating movie projector and phonograph at the same time. In Germany, Ernst Walter Ruehmer and H. Thirring have perfected another ingenious device. Twill be nice when we can go to the movies and not have someone in the next row back whispering the subtitles. In fact- there won't be any subtitles. To the present writing, there never has been a movie produced whose scenario artist didn't get off one "That Night," and then some stuff of this sort: "And so the lambent sunset beckoned as they walked into the west-" When nation is pitted against nation to make the movies talk, you can bet all your German marks the movies are going to talk. Maybe that will mean international friendliness, death to war. Let us hope so.

TTROMthe age of twelve a girl needs all the care the thought-

JL fill mother can give. Many a woman has suffered years of pain and misery the victim of thoughtlessness or ignorance of the mother who should have guided her during this time. If she complains of headaches, pains in the back and lower limbs, or if you notice a slowness of thought, nervousness or irritability on the part of your daughter make life easier for her. Lydia E.Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is especially adapted for such conditions. It can be taken in safety by any woman, young or old. Read How These Mothers Helped Their Daughters

CL reenville, Del. "I vraa under the impression that my eldest daughter had 6ome internal trouble as ever since the first time her sickness appeared she had to go to bed and even had to quit school once for a -week. I always take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound myself so I gave it to her and she has received great benefit from it. You can use this letter for a testimonial if you wish, as I can not say too much about what your medicine has done for us." l!Irs."Y:M:.S.HcGiiES, Greenville, Del.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound doing girls so much good so she began to take it. That is two years ago and she is a different girl since then, able to do any work she wants to do and so well and strong. . "We recommend the Vegetable Compound to mothers with ailing daughters."

A MOVING BALLAD. The melancholy days are come, The saddest of the year, The landlord growls, "Cough up more rent Or beat it out of here." The tenant packs his phonograph His goldfish and his bed, His radio receiving set, And forth, his family's led. They're weary of the place they've had, Its faults have weighed them down And they find an apartment in "A better part of town." The old place was impossible, The new one turns out bad, Developing the old one's faults And some it never had. And so it goes, through all your days, Until your years are spent. The best apartment in the world Is the one you used to rent. A New York woman away on vacation sent her husband the hotel bill. He replied: "I am sending check for hotel bill, but please do not buy any more hotels atjthat price. They are cheating you." OUR DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE AND INVENTION. Patent Ash Catcher: Elias Pettibone, a tobacconist, at Peking, Mo., has invented an ash catcher which prevents cigar ashes from falling on the waistcoat or the parlor carpet. It is an aluminum cup which is fastened by a small band to the cigar and hangs directly under the ash. It is calculated toprevent many divorce cases. Fading: Ink: The alleged paper shortage has been solved by Asa J. Doohttle, of Bucyrus, Ohio, who has invented the disappearing ink for use on the printing presses. This ink entirely fades out twentyfour hours after the newspaper is printed, leaving absolutely white paper, which the reader will return to the newspaper office so that it may be printed again. London Medical Association declares that smoking by women is a vice because their nerves can't stand it. This declaration ends the association s part of the program.

"A5IOXG the other most beautiful WORDS In the language besides THAT'S good," are these: "NO appeal for funds will b MADE In connection WITH the lecture." OUR Idea of a satisfactory SITUATION is a dispirited I. W. W. OXB nice thing- about an EGOTIST Is that he Is so BUSY talking about himself THAT he hasn't time TO talk about you. WE know a woman who WHEX she would rather stay AT home than go whither Invited, ALWAYS says "You know THAT husband of mine SI31PLY will not go anywhere. A scientist says it takes THE tree load about an hour TO change color and we guess IT takes some of our modern GIRLS even longer, no matter WHAT trend the convention assumes. STUDENTS who can kick far can set THEIR college tuition free. THOSE who can think deep must pay. ANOTHER thing we spend A good deal of time at IS discounting what our alarmed COLLEGE professors say about THE horrors of bolshevlsm ALL about us. SOMEBODY else who can go WAY back and sit down without MAKING anybody peeved Is Babe Ruth. GERMAN officers are Joining THE Turkish army in large numbers. IF there Is any place where German OFFICERS should feel perfectly at home IT Is In the German army. AND . then again a pathetic LITTLE feature of everyday LIFE is the man who THINKS a lot about his clothes. THANK goodness the baseball DOPE season has been closed for THE only thing most of to ACCEPT without a T.zti of salt IS the score. 'A woman cansee' some redemption IN the man who has fourteen wives AND no children', but she CANT figure a man who has FOURTEEN children and only one wife.

tomorrow afternoon. Gary steel mills are faced with the greatest labor shortage of their history. They already need 2,000 more men and are faced with the probability that 2,000 more will go back t5 the old country to participate In the Balkan war. John OUraJ was appointed chief of police of West Hammond last night when the council met. Attorney Charles Dyer has entered Into partnership In the law business with Attorney Dan Moran of Hammond. Chief Martin of the Gary police at noon today dynamited the dam by which the Tolleston Gun club has for years kept the waters of the Little Calumrt river backed up In the marshes. It is expected that the Burns ditch will drain all of this land so that it will be suitable for gardening. Paul Sartarnes of West Hammond, a car inspector, was crushed to death between two cars in the Erie yards at Hammond last night. It Is reported that a saw mill company Is preparing to erect a mill near Cedar Lake and that during the winter many acres of the beautiful trees now surrounding the lake will be cut down and sawed Into lumber.
