LOCAL DRY AGENT HELPS IN RAIDS ON BREWERIES D. F\ Widenhouse Writes of His Exper- I iences In Pennsylvania. Where He Is On Special Duty. J Daniel F. Widenhouse, federal prohi bition agent, with headquarters in this j county. i> finding many interesting ex j periences in Pennsylvania at present, ac cording to a letter received by The Trib une from him. The efficient nun hunt er has been in Pennsylvania for several weeks now, having been ordered at lire time the raids were started, against :he breweries in that Slate, and in his letter he makes no mention of return ing home although he expresses regret that lie can't be again "in old North Carolina and especially in Cabarrus (’ounty." Mr. Widenhouse's letter - was written from Lancaster. Pa., on the stationery of the Superior Hrewerage Company, which was recently seized and which in* has been guarding since the raid that plac ed it Mi the hands of Uncle Sam’s .agents. As a blockade finder and bootleg chas er Mr. Widenhouse enjoys an enviable reputation in his native haunts, but if is evident from his letter that lie is finding things in Pennsylvania that probably made him think "there ain't no such an imal." Thousands and thousands of gal lons of beer, the real stuff at that, have been seized since Mr. Widenhouse lias been in the northern States, and be has (found so many wonderful things that he is dubious about people "at home" believ ing them. The letter dated November lilfli, follows: -- F guess my friends in my old terri tory are wondering what has becorng* of me. Well. 1 am in Pennsylvania, doing my bit in the great drive that is being made here against the breweries and boot leggers. “I was in Philadelphia about two and a half weeks and helped to destroy a number of stills, and personally helped to seize two breweries. Then 1 was sent lu re with three other parties and we seiz ed a big brewery here and now we :fle guarding it until the U. S. Marshal takes •barge of it. “One of the breweries I helped, seize had on hand 150,000 gallons of beer and the value of this is $500,000. There have he<n 25 serzed in this state since I came here, and still there is plenty to do here. If 1 were to «tatc conditions my friends would not believe me, so 1 will close, hoping soon to be hack in oM North Car olina. as there is no other pine* like it. specially Cabarrus County. "D. F.

THE RED CROSS ROLL CALL There Are But Fnr Ca:L Which Have a Larger Breadth Than This One, In the Red CrOv R 11 Call this week this community is given an opportunity to express itself in n splendid fashion. There are few calls that have a larger breadth to them than this one. The things that this organization stands for are. or ought to be. familiar to every one.- So that when we are asked to contribute “a heart and a dollar” we are asked to make about as small a contribution as could be possibly expect ed. However the largest of the two is the first. If fill*, community will 'make the contribution of the heart f«r this world-wide cause the dollars will not be lacking. * To my knowledge this particular part icf our country has never had the ocea i sion to- make any demand for the ser ] vices of the Red Cross in any large way. [except probably for the services of a nurse for stated times. But there are parts of this State that have been in distress when this organization mani fested the real spirit for which it stands. But the fact that we may have never had to call on the Red,Cross for its ser vices d6>s not relieve us from the obli gation of helping in this Roll Call. We are not certain that we shall always be so fortunate. But larger still is our opportunity of helping an organization that has in the past and is now doing a most excellent work among the less fortunate of the world'Sjjtiopuplation. This is purely a wora of mercy. It seeks nor a>ks fn- i#o rewards for its services. It is more than merely help ing a person out of a difficulty, it is uniting the whole world in a bond of mutual fellow-feeling. So hothing less than tlie desired for this com munity should be thought of, nor should anything less be satisfactory. We are accustomed to doing what is asked of us, but more is the measure of the spirit of service. L. A. THOMAS. Tuesday's Salisbury Tost: Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Hole ami daughter.
