PROGRAM OF KUKLUX CONSTRUCTIVE, SAYS NATIONAL LECTURER "We,- ;.tne Invisible Empire.
KnigMs ot tae Ku Klux Klan, have no fight with any man anywhere. We
stand for pure., 100 percent Americanism and the upholding of the Constitution of the United States. We are not anti-Catholic. anti-Jew, anti-negro or anti-anything but our program is
constructive." This was the keynote of the address delivered before a
crowd of about 1.500 people at the Coll
eeum Thursday night by Dr. C. Lewis Fowler of Atlanta. Ga.. founder of
Lanier university and national lecturer for the order. Dr. Fowler told of the origin of the Ku Klux Klan In the south during the reconstruction period following the
Civil war. He told of the organization
of the Ku Klux Klan at this time
means necessary to the very preservation of the white race in that particular section of the country. Ho said the Klan was voluntarily disbanded
after its purpose had been accomplished but that disorderly and "unauthorized bands of marauders, in the guiso of Klansmen, had followed afterward with certain lawless activities
which had sullied the name of the Klan and given it a bad reputation in the minds of the American people. - I "There are certain : dangers ahead for America certain menaces which are undermining the very foundations of our American institutions," 6aid Dr. Fowler, "and it is the determination of the Invisiblo Empire Knights of the Ku Klux Klan to remove these menaces from our. present civilization. The spirit of tho Klan has remained unchangd but 'its inthods are different in that no violence on the part of any member of the i organization will bo tolerated." Millions Enrolled. Dr. Fowler said there are millions of America's leading citizens in every walk of life enrolled, including many Drominent public officers. He admit

Pigeon Breeding By FREDERIC J. HASK1N
WASHINGTON, D. C. July 14.
More people breed racing pigeons than
race horses. It is claimed that more people are interested in pigeon racing than in horse racing. It is even prophesied that pigeon racing will rank soon as one of the national sports. These fact may be astonishing to the man who has never watched a
for as long as two days. By experimental work Lieut. McAtee has even trained a bird to stay with the nest
for four days In the absence of the
mate.
At four weeks the baby birds are at

After you note the variety you begin to see how many of a Blngle breed are in a loft, ad you wonder, how the breeders can tell the birds apart. Yet they know every one of the good homers and other fine birds. Out of a cage of 100 birds the navy pigeon trainer can point out number 549 that flew 600 miles from Napponse, Ind., to Washington in 11 hours, 27 minutes, with a cross wind. He points out
Truthful, a blue bird with white flights across her wings. This pigeon Is always reliable. She has flown 500
miles three times thi3 year and came out first in one race and second in another. There is no guesswork about it. The pigeon lover knows his birds. Out at the Baird farm Jacobson gave an exhibition of his familiarity with his birds. He went into a loft of about 100 homers. "I know practically every one of the 500 homers on the farm,' "he said. "That one is 232." And he pointed to a bird. Then with a skillful swoop he caught the pigeon and showed the number on the leg band. Number after number he called without a mis

TAX BOARD RULING n ENDS CONTROVERSY"
NEWCASTLE, Ind., July 14. An order Just Issued by the statetax board has denied the right of Liberty town

for $70,000 to build a new high school i at Millville, on the Newsastle pike," between Hagerstown and Newcastle This Is the culmination of a 10 year fight which has divided the township -, as no other issue has done. T It is understood that the tax board thought the bond issue would make -: too high a tax rate. The rate is now $1.31. Disputes over the proposed . building have divided the township into-, two hostile camps for 10 years, thequestion frequently being carried into the court and finally into politics,'1, primary candidates for trustees this , spring running on a platform of pro or anti-school construction.

tation, no one knows why or how. But they have to be trained to use it for the benefit of man. The young, full fledged birds are called to bo fed by rattling grain in a can. They learn to know the trainer and the sound and to come when he
calls them. Then they are let out for
exercise. They fly round and round the loft while their wings gain strength, until the trainer calls them
down by rattling the can. They learn
to know their own loft even if it is in
a row of buildings exactly alike, and
rarely does a bird make a mistake. When the young birds are familiar with their surroundings they are sent a mile away in a basket and released to fly home. Then the distance is increased to five miles, then 10, and so on until by the end of the first year the best birds are flying 200 miles and some even 500 miles. From his naval experience Lieut. McAtee says that out of the birds that prove good homers, in the first year 97 percent will deliver messages satisfactorily. The birds that do not have the homing instinct sufficiently strong or that have little endurance are lost on the long flights and the navy does not try to recover them. It wants only the sure, swift birds to carry its important messages. A bird that comes in regularly with mud on its feet has the habit of stopping to drink and it is likely to be struck from the navy roll for lack of stamina or a deficient sense of responsibility.

But the average person could as easily know one sparrow from another as to distinguish some of the pigeons of the same parentage. The pigeons know Jacobson too. He
led the way into loft after loft, point

pigeon types, we are told. Pigeons are said to be better subjects for scientific breeding than any other creature. This is partly because so many centuries of crossbreeding are back of the pigeon
