Barnard, state food and drug commissioner, with the approval of Governor Goodrich, appointed twentyfive inspectors yesterday in the reorganized state oil inspection department.

Six of the new inspectors are discharged soldiers, all but two of the former service men who took the competitive examination receiving appointments. Edward F. Warfel, formerly in charge of publicity for the State Board of Health, the Indiana Free Employment Commission, and a number of other state departments, was named as chief clerk in charge of the oil inspection department at a salary of $250 a month.

The National Anti-Saloon league will carry on a campaign of education until the liquor traffic has been effectively curbed, S. Edward Nicholson, secretary and national organizer of the league, said Thursday. Its campaign of education will be directed in part to the alien element of the population which has not been reached by the propaganda of temperance, and which does not fully understand the purposes of prohibition. Magazines and newspapers printed

in foreign tongues will be used as mediums for the campaign and as quickly as possible temperance workers who speak the language of the alien citizens will be used. To Carry War Abroad. Aid also will be extended to the temperance forces of foreign countries. One of the representatives of the Anti-Saloon league assisted in the campaign which put Finland on the dry map recently. The question of statutory prohibition is an issue in Australia and New

ealand, and will be ia the forefront in Scotland in 1920.. The Anti-Saloon league will not give up its activities until the liquor interests quit the fight, said Mr. Nicholson. "So long as they fight, the Antisaloon league will be in existence." Mr. Nicholson said brewers and distillers met several months ago and announced they woul raise three billion dollars to fight temperance, but he believes this amount can not be obtained.

LITTLE IMPROVEMENT SHOWN IN FOOTBALL SQUAD AT INDIANA BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct 2 Indiana's football hopes were at low tide today. A week of gruelling practice has put the Crimson in only fair condition for the Center College game here Saturday. The weaknesses in the Indiana line, apparent in last Saturday's battle with Wabash, have been strengthened and the return of McCaw, right tackle, who has been hobbling on crutches for more than a week, has partly plugged up the hole left by the recent disbarment of Captain Ingles. There was no disposition here to

day to underestimate the strength of

Centre College. The Centre line averages 195 pounds, and the smashing, elusive backfield runners will prove a hard proposition for the Crimson wing men. Try Minnesota Plays Brand new formations and trick plays, which will be used by Indiana against the powerful Minnesota eleven at Washington Park, Indianapolis, October 18th. will have their first airing against Centre College. Coach "Jumbo" Stiehm believes that Minnesota's invincible line will be of little avail against a deceptive, aerial attack. Acting on this belief he has devised some football puzzles that Sam Lloyd would have trouble fathoming. SENATE REJECTS FALL AMENDMENT (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. Taking the first action on committee changes in the peace treaty, the seate today rejected the amendment by Senator Fall, Republican, of New Mexico, to eliminate the United States from membership on the committee to determine the boundary line between Germany and Belgium.

The total cost of the improvement, according to the city engineer, will be ?2,347.42. The board was ready to receive bids for the improvement of North Twentythird street from E to F streets. As there were no bids, the matter was laid over until early spring. The plans of City Engineer Davis for the bouldering of the ravine in Gden Miller park, to bo constructed under his supervision, were approved. As a number of produce men wanted the east end market to be left open after Sept. 30, official date for closing, the board approved a motion to continue the market indefinitely, under supervision of the market master.

BoBton Globe Just four miles north of Exter, N. H., lies the little town of Newfields, once a prosperous manufacturing center, noted for its water heater and machine shops, with 500 men on the pay rolls. Now it has less than that number of inhabitants, including men, women and children. In those days the town was called South Newmarket. It boasted several saloons, two hotels, corporation boarding houses, a variety of stores ad four churches, supported by substa.. I congregations. Today all that may be seen of the hotels is the empty cellars over which they once stood, for fire long ago stores remain. One of the churches has closed its doors and the other three struggle along with dwindling congregations. The once crowded boarding houses, the popular bar rooms and the livery stable are all gone. Newfields today is unique in many ways. It is essentially a woman's town. The houses are mostly owned by women; in. fact, some women own several. Both store buildings in the town are owned by women. The Odd Fellows' hall is owned by woman, also the public library building. The bulk of the taxes is therefore necessarily paid by women. Adamless Eden. Newfields may be called an almost Adamless Eden, for there are more

unmarried women in proportion to the j population than you may find in a.

day's travel elsewhere. There are young women, middle aged women,

aged women, pretty women, homely women, all varieties of the female type; but there is is almost one charistic dominating them all: theyare educated, refined and wonderlully capable women. They are versatile women, these dwellers in Newfields, they can write essays on the higher thoughts of life; they can learn letter perfect page upon page of lodge or grange ritual; they can plant and harvest large crops; they can mow their green lawns and grow beautiful flowers; they can sew and knit tremendously, and cook well, God bless you! their cooking is par excellence, "the kind that mother used to make." Many of these women are or have been school teachers; there are also nurses, dressmakers, milliners, an artist, a journalist, bookkeeper, and just plain, every day housekeepers or home-makers. There are a few unmarried men in Newfields, both bachelors and widowers, but the beys and men of the town do not seek their mates at home. Let a new girl move into town and all the boys will seek to become her "steady," but the girls who were born there and grew up with the. boys must look beyond their native town for mates. Bachelors occupy attractive houses of many rooms, living alone in single bliss and selfishness. Spinsters and widows live in great, roomy colonial uouses, all alone in the lonely spaciousness of ten or twelve rooms. No Reason to Worry. And these women, who for the most part own their own fine homes and have money enough to keep them comfortably all their lives, shrug their shoulders as they read the divorce columns and say, "I should worry." With their large woodpiles, their well-stocked preserve and fruit cellar?, their flocks of hens laying truly golden

eggs at fiO and 70 cents a dozen, their

garaens, their fine old

fields; women with mortgages on many farms occupied by men, women with city and town bonds; and as for Liberty and Victory bonds, the town of Newfields went way over the top every time. Traveling through Nebraska and Wyoming, one sees from the car windows great bulletin boards reading:

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. Breaking a three weeks' deadlock, senate and house conferees reached an agreement late Wednesday oa the prohibition enforcement bill. Quiek approval of the conferees' report is expected by leaders and the measure may go to the president early next week. The bill, which establishes one-half of 1 per cent as the maximum alcoholic content of beverages, was parsed by tbe house July 22. and by the sen ate Sept. 5. The conference report will be acted on first by the senate, to which it will be reported Friday, and then sent to the house. The bill will be returned from conference without fundamental changes in Its plan for strict enforcement bcth of the wartime prohibition law and the constitutional amendment by thtcommlssioner of internal revenue ana department of justice. Provisions for manufacture and sale Industrial spirits and of spirits for

jicramental and scientific use are retained but rigorous safeguards against manufacture and safe of drinks for any other purpose are provided. "Liberal" Provisions Kept. The senate conferees, however, succeeded in retaining virtually every one of the 285 liberalizing provisions adopted by the upper houae, which comprise mostly administrative ideas. The principal "liberal" amendment of the senate, permitting home manufacture and consumption of cider and light wines, was approved as well as another senate amendment extending application of the amendment to the Panama Canal Zone.

Superstition Harmless If Not Carried Too Far Columbus Dispatch Everybody is superstitious and it is all right. At least it doesn't do any harm which is the same thing. It is possible for one to carry his superstitions too far, perhaps; where superstition interferes with one's enjoyment of life, or robs him of something in the

way of contentment, it may not be well. But it doesn't work that wayj ery often. Generally our superstitions are rival nd o us no harm. To carry a coin in the pocket fori luck; to comment about seeing the moon over the left 6houlder; to refuse to walk under a ladder; to believe that it is bad luck to turn back; to make a wish at the appearance of the first I

star of the evening; to suppose it is not well to break a mirror which it itn't well to do; to give heed to the thousand and one little superstitions which are entertained by the people, does no harm whatever. They are all

part of the compleities of life. If you
