"I went down to find out about those jitney cars I've been hearing so much about." he said to a reporter. England has taken up the subject of National prohibition. England says that the reason instruments of war cannot be supplied by her land to fight the Germans is because of drunkenness and inefficiency.

Gilbert Buth-rie. a son of W. W. Guthrie a lawyer well known in this section in early days, has recently returned from Siberia and Russia where he has been in command of a big engineering proposition for several years. Mr.

Guthrie says that since the war broke out and the absolute prohibition of the sale of liquors by all Russians began, their capacity has been doubled. He says that Saturdays and Mondays and even Tuesday mornings at times his workmen were of no account. They drew their pay. drank a little Saturday afternoon and all day Sunday and took Monday to recover in. 'Vodka is a liquor that requires hours for overcoming the effects.

After prohibition Mis' men worked full time and far better. In France liquor is being taken from the soldiers more and more. England is the worst land in its subjection to the drink evil. Women go to public houses as naturally as men. Drunken women are a common sight in England and thought nothing of.

If this war results in international prohibition of the liquor traffic it may yet be called a holy waT. Attacking the use of liquor on the grounds of its effect on efficiency will have a big effect. Railroads will not employ drinking men. They dare not. Other employers will have to come to this conclusion.

It will bring drinking men to their senses quicker than any other method employed. When Mr. and Mrs. Joe Stevenson took an automobile trip through California prior to their return to Sabetha, they took Jack, their dog. He rode in the car like a gentleman.

"What meal are the chickens eating?" inquired the teacher of her flock, expecting them to say dinner, supper or breakfast. they sang out with one accord. The chickens saiJ cheep, cheep, whereupon Miss Monney said, "Elgin Burke will tell you what the chickens say." and Elgin did in his piece. The speaking was over by recess and the balance of the afternoon was spent in kindergarten games. Decorations in Miss Harrison's room were drawings of robins and bluejays done by the children and displaying talen.

The absence and bluejays done by the children and displaying talent. The absence of an occasional front tooth in the first grade made speaking effective and interesting when such a snag was encountered as the word "soap." The songs with motions and the dialogues with real "acting" were a real delight. Eunice Parker in Miss Moyer's grade spoke her piece in prose, a more difficult task than rhymes. It was remarkably well done. The timely subject was housecleaning, wherein Eunice said housecleaning was what all men know it is; that her dolls were lost, her broken playthings burned up and that when she grew up Bhe would be glad so she could just go on being dirty and happy.

Margaret Corwin lacking two teeth lisped her discontent at not being a boy. Norman Hoverson was troubled over the fact that castor oil has a place in this terrestial sphere. The perfection with which songs and pieces were given was The tots sing accidentals and minors and things like that true to the note. Miss Moyer said sue had personally taught all the songs In her room but two. In the fourth grade thee is undoubted talent with pencil and brush.

A flight of bluebirds colored and cut out with scissors was an attractive decoration. On the walls are many posters, evidence of the progress in this line. Hobart Freiburghouso had a good piece about giving ailments to everyone: Chickenpox to the school, scarlet fever to the neighbor children. He finally wound up tho eventful season by having the mumps and giving them to papa. The children were generally letter perfect In their pieces.

In Miss Moyer's room a last thought dialogue completed the program. The children had worked on it but two days. They wanted It included and it went off in great shape.
