PAGAN CEREMONIALS ARE HELD IN ITALY; RECALL OLD WORSHIP By ALICE ROHE (Written for The United Press) GUBBIO, Italy. July 8. Scenes reminiscent of the days of tree worship back in the very dawn of history have Just been witnessed In this ancient Italian town. Pagan ceremonials', connected with the-Vigil of St Ubaldo. which have been condemned by two popes and banned by Napoleon, were carried out with Bacchanalian fervor. "The Elevation and Procession of the Candles" is the English name of the festival which set Gubbio, one of the five oldest towns In Italy, afire with fervor. . At noon at the convent of Santa Lucia there is a feast going on which is attended by the Ceraioli, or candlebearers. All Gubbio is awaiting the proceedings here, for aa soon as the white-bloused, red-capped Ceraioli finish eating they rush out Into the courtyard where three huge wooden obe lisk-like affairs are lying. These are the so-called Ceri, though many think the name comes from the Goddess of Beside them are huge wooden shafts!8 or frames. The outrush of Ceraioli reveals them in three distinct groups, one bearing an image of St Ubaldo,! the patron saint of Gubbio, and representing the stone masons; another the image of St George, representing the merchants, and a third, St. Anthony, carrying In his hand a ball of fire, representing the peasants. Great Competition The elevation of the Ceri, which are 12 feet in height, the placing of the images on the pinnacles, Is the great competition. The winner Is, of course, ailed with shouts of Joy. As soon as the Ceri are raised, a Jug of water Is poured over each the ancient lustration rite described in the Eugubine tablets being seen in this act. , When the libation has been poured out, the Jug is thrown to the ground and broken. Then through the narrow streets of Gubbio, each taking a different route, a mad rush begins. Already the Ceraioli have been given plenty of wine, but now, looking down a medieval street, before a picturesque stone house, you may see the fluttering robes of St. Ubaldo swirling before an ancient house. Three times round goes the gyration, which means that here is an offering of wine to the Ceraioli. For several hours the Ceri are placed at the head of the Via Dante and the Ceraioli spend the hours in song and recreation. Then at vespers an interesting ceremonial takes place. The big bell in the Palace of the Councillors announces that the arch bishop in procession, with a banner of St. Ubaldo, is leaving tne catnearai to give his benediction to the Ceri. Wine Offered When the religious procession reaches the Via Dante, the Cert have been once more placed upon the shoulders of the Ceraioli. As soon as the benediction is given, the Ceraioli, pre. ceded and surrounded by a huge crowd, rush from the Via Xante into the Corso At the end of the street a stop 13 made and wine is offered. Then the rush is made toward the Piazza Grande, where three turns are made before the mayor seated in a window of the Municipio. Once more the Ceri are taken on a wild run,, this time to ward the commanding Mt. Iguvio. Reaching the monastery at the sum mit, the images are taken from tne Ceri and the huge obelisks placed in their resting place till next year. In the dusk the Ceraioli descend the mountain to a town illuminated with mvriad lights. They return singing scngs of St. Ubaldo and carrying the images of the three saints back to the church of the stone masons. The festal is over until next year.

ANY BOY IN COUNTY OR CITY IS ELIGIBLE FOR CAMP KI-RO "Several people, when making inquiry concerning Camp Ki-Ro, the boys camp near Fairfield, have asked whether or not the camp is strictly a Y. M. C. A. affair." said Perry WilSaturday. "They seem to think that only those boys who are members of the 'Y are eligible. I wish to say that Camp Ki-Ro is not a Y. M. C. A. camp but is a civic proposition and any boy in the city or county that wants to go is eligible. There is still room for 20 more boys in the first period of the camp, said Mr. Wilson. This period starts on July 27 and it is expected that the full enrollment of 50 boys will be in by that time.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

POINTS TO DANGERSg TO U.S, INSTITUTIONS FROM FOES WITHffj (By Associated Press) LEESBURG, W. Va.. July 8. Enemies who today attack American Institutions "from within instead of from without" are no less to be feared than the foes of wartimes, "although they do not wear distinctive uniforms," Acting Secretary Wainwright, of the war department said today in an address prepared for delivery at the dedication of the memorial to the men of London county who died in the World war. "Since the great war," Mr. Wainwright said, "innumerable 'isms' have sprung up in our country whose declared or undeclared objective is to destroy Americanism, to which we owe all we possess as a nation. Groups ofpeoples and classes are organized everywhere for every kind of purpose except a patriotic and national one. Insidious propaganda is being directed against all of the fundamentals of our government. Worst Enemies "The most pernicious of all are those who are striving to substitute in-ternalism-for nationalism. They would destroy from within what no enemy has ever been able to do from without our ideals of government, constitution, institutions, liberties and leadership in the world. The pacificists who were silent dur ing the war and missing from the ranks of our defenders, would destroy our instruments of defense, the army and navy, and render us a weakling among the nations without influence or perstige in the world affairs. These pacifists and internationtlists working together and in most instances the same people are trying to induce our youths to foreswear allegiance to our flag and refuse to defend it. All Road Safest. "If such are not enemies then who is? "That is not the road to peace that i3 merely the road to which fanatics point. The road to peace is the same one we have, always followed. As long as we adhere to the ideals that made us a nation and as long as we have strength actual and potential, that long will we be able to influence the councils of the nations for peace. The wivnAnt wa Kamama ... ... ; 11 Via moment we become weak we will be flouted. The moment we submerge our identity as a nation all is lost. "These dead must not have died in vain. Heroic dead of Laudon county, I salute you. We will be faithful in your trust."

AMERICANS SECRETLY MURDERED BY TURKS, SAYS INVESTIGATOR (By Associated Press) LONDON. July 8. Americans are being secretly murdered by the Turks in Asia Minor and report then circulated say that they died of typhus and other diseases, according to J. Herbert Knapp, civil engineer, of Los Angeles, who has arrived from Constantinople after three years In the Turkish Interior. Mr. Knapp went to Turkey principally to investigate the death at Diarbeklr of his brother, the late George P. Knapp, who the Turks reported had died suddenly of typhus. He declares that his own investigation, supported by affidavits on file wun toe American consul at Bagdad, convinced him that his brother was executed by shooting. "The Turks hated my brother." said Mr. Knapp. "because he knew too much about the massacre of Chris uang wmcn was then in progress. It was generally reported that he had died from poisoning after drinking a cup or TurKisn coffee, handed to him by a prominent Turkish official, but I am confident from testimony given by those who lived near the scene of his death that he was deliberately muraered "I believe also that Miss Annie Allen, of Auburndale. Mass., Miss Charlotte Ely. of Elmira, N. Y.. and other Americans who died in Turkey recently met their deaths at the hands of the Turks, although in each case it was made to appear that death was due to natural causes." Miss Allen Hindered Mr. Knapp recounted the story of Miss Allen, who, he said, was sent to Kharput by the Near East relief to investigate the causes for the expulsion of Major Yowell, Dr. Mark Ward and others and who was often described as the "unofficial American ambassador to Angora." Miss Alien had learned enoueh In Kharput, Mr. Knapp said, to 6atisfv her that the Greek deportees were be ing systematically starved to death and exposed to all kinds of maltreat ment to accomplish this end. "The Turks laid their plans carefully," Mr. Knapp asserted. "Everv conceivable obstacle was placed in her way so that she could not reach An gora to tell her tale of Turkish excesses. "After days and days of travel on horseback and suffering from the most intense exposure, she perished from exhaustion and typhus soon after arriving at Sivas." Saturday Night Bible Class Open to Any Boy "The Calling of the Twelve" will be the subject for the Saturday night Bible class which meets at the Y. M. C. A. at 7 o'clock. The class is being conducted by Sater Horn and is open to any boy in the city whether a member of the Y. M. C. A. or not between the ages of 14 and 16 years. The class meets for one-half hour of Bible study and then every boy may take a swim in the "Y" pool. Mr. Horn says that the subject matter for the above subject may be found in the books of Matthew, Mark or Luke. llllfflillllllllllllllB

FIND CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES PRODUCING FINE QUALITY SPUDS "I have eight to 10 marketable potatoes as large as my fist or bigger, under every one ot my certified seed potato vines," Bays a friend of Ed f-Deitmeyer. who was furnished a few potatoes "to try," when the farm bureau imported the certified seed potatoes last spring. "They are the best potatoes I have ever grown, and I am sorry I did not get more of the seed." Reports from certified seed potato plantings over the state indicate an increased yield, due to the certified seed of from one-third more to three times as much as from native seed stock, according to a letter just received by the county agent from F. C. Gaylord, associate in horticulture at Purdue. A request is made that counties which bought certified seed keen re cords on the yield from it and from the native seed to discover the actual value of the imported potatoes. Wayne county already has made such a provision, says County Agent J. L. Dolan, 20 farmers having agreed to keep a check in the yields and to compare them with the results of using native seed. Comparisons already made with early dug potatoes indicate that the new seed has raised the yield considerably wherever it was used. The best demonstration of certified seed value is seen on the Easthaven farm, where W. D. Scott, manager of the farm, has planted several acres to the state selected seed. Third Spray For Moths Should Be Given July 16 The third summer spray for control of the codling moth should be ap - plied July 16, advises J. J. Davis, head of the Purdue entomology department This advice is based upon observation of hatchings of the insects eggs which have been reported from observation stations in many parts of the state. It is suggested that the regular lime sulphur sprays be applied with one and a half pounds of lead arsenate added, but Mr. Davis warns against using the lime sulphur when the temperature is above 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

USUAL PROCEDURE FOLLOWED IN TARIFFS BILL DEBATE TODAY

(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, July 8. The senate , continued consideration of the administration tariff bill under the usual procedure today, the- attempt of Republican leaders to shut off debate on the measure having failed with the defeat of the motion to invoke the exist- , ing cloture rule. The vote on the motion yesterday was 45 to 35, or nine less than the necessaray two-thirds majority, with Democrats voting solid- . ly against the proposition and joined by five Republicans. Proceedings in the senate yesterday also were featured by a vigorous attack on the tariff bill by Senator La- -Follette a Republican member of the committee that reported it, in which he declared the only way the Republican party would be saved from de- . feat5 in the November congressional elections and from disaster, in the ; next presidential election was to rewrite the bill on the basis of "the old , Republican principle" of merely equalizing the difference in the cost of pro-

auction at home and abroad. LaFollette Attacks Bill Senator LaFollette characterized the ', bill as even worse than the Payne- , Aldrich law and asked his colleagues if they thought the people would .". "calmly accept the burdens in 1922 which they so decisively refused to -carry in 1910 and 1912." Addressing the senate in support of the cloture motion before the vote was taken yesterday, Senator Watson, Re- -publican, of Indiana, asserting the Democrats were conducting an adoit filibuster to delay passage of the tar- -iff bill declared the paramount ques- r tion at issue was whether the senate , was to function; whether the party: ? y which was given a majority of 7,000.-" ' 000 votes was to keep its pledge to the people that the tariff would be revised.

DRY BUREAU PROBES DISTILLERY LEAKAGE (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, July 8.

H. Bond and Cross distillery, both near Lawrenceburg, at the latter of which federal agents were said to have reported the theft of 189 barrels of whisky in the last two weeks.
