One feature of the j meeting was the “Zero Hour” from Sd>o| to 9 o’clock, which was observed in the 1.380 Kiwanis clubs throughout the coun j try. Exactly at 8:50 o’clock every i Kiwanis club observed a Fellowship ; Moment of silence.

BOOTLEG INVADERS DEFY DRY SQUADS AND FLOOD CAPITAL Wage Winning Warfare While ProhiM tion Forces Fail to Dam Rum Flow. Washington, D.-C., June 23.—The in tensive campaign which the prohibititon authorities are making to dry up the District of- Columbia is meeting with such spirited resintance from the illicit liquor interests that a stage bordering on j warfare has been reached. Nightly gun battles are.being fought on the highways leading from Washington to southern Maryland, where large numbers of stills operate to supply the national capital and surrounding territory with liquor. Cars of the bootleggers, with, high-powered motors, race over these roads at a speed of sixty miles an hour exchanging shots with any prohibition qjficers that may be encountered. The illicit liquor men have perfected their transportation system to a stage : where the prohibition authorities can only stop them by blockading the roads, which is a dangerous and illegal under taking. The bootleggers have adopted the convoy system for bringing their big supplies of corn and rye Whisky into Washingtoiiy nightly. One machine pre cedes the liquor-laden automobile and an other, known as the block car, follows it. all the cars being capable of extremely high speed, and all the occupants equip ped with automatics. The special func tion of the block car is to prevent pursuit by permitting no pursuing automobiles to get between itself and the .cargo car rier. Temporarily, at least, the bootleggers have the prohibition authorities balked as they race over the boulevards into Wash ington between midnight and dawn., They travel at such breakneck speed, witli a manifest intention to stop for nothing, that the revenue officers have no way to stop the cars except at the risk of life : and limb. Interest of the cittizens, without re gard to their thirst or lack of same, now 1 centers on the outcome of one of the bitterest set-tos between the illicit liquor To prevent freckles Elizabeth Arden has created an > exquisite finishing lotion, , , VENETIAN LILLE LOTION, to be used under powder. ’ Antiseptic aud astringent, • smooths and refines the akin, -< leaves a silky finish, flattering ' ; ' » for day or evening.

I {The latest reports front the nightly 'scenes of war, is that the agents of the illicit distillers who supply Washington have resorted to a inost desperate expe dient in order to shut off pursuit on the Maryland roads. They have supplied themselves with quantities of dynamite and are preparing to mine certain sec > tions of the roads so that as a last Ex pedient they can render the roads tem porarily impassable and wreck the pur suing cars if their block car system fails to work satisfactorily. Authorities in Washington are aware of this latest move, but have.no way of preventing it. There have been numerous shakeups ]in the personnel of the Washington po lice. department the past week, a large part of which is said to have significance in connection with the liquoi^situation. The Washington Star, long a prohibi tion newspaper, has been making an in vestigation of its own, and its investiga tors report that there is a flood of block ade liquor reaching the capitat from near by Maryland and Virginia places. The eorielusion is drawn by these investiga tors that there is no method•'’yeruevised which Will stop,the importation of liquor into Washington. Meantime, there are important changes soon to take place in the national prohi bihition organization. The tenure of Commissioner Roy ,C. Haylies is known to be drawing to a close. His successor is being mentioned by name in adminis tration circles, although his identity is being carefully guarded. -It is reported that he is one of the best known secret service men in the government service, I with long experience in dealing with la w vie a tors.

Smith, city engineer, and has already been used with great success in remarking all the lines in the business section. The price paid for the traffic marker is SBO but it will pay for Itself over and over in the reduction of expenses for painting the white lines. In appearance, it has the look of a small garden .plow. It is propelled in the same manner and has in place of the plowpoint a fiat brush which makes the line on the street. The amount of paint which is put down is controlled by a feed throttle at the handle. One man can now do the work In half a day that formerly took three men work* ing five days, said Mr. Smith this morti | ing. It will mean 'a va§t saying to the city, he added, and will enable the'lineß to be painted much ofteneir and look fresher than before. • j The paint used in putting down the marks Monday was of,a quick drying va riety and was practically hard, as .spqn as it wnfe put down. Several new linjjis were put down, one which received a great deal of commendation, being the pedestrian lines in front of tie Cabarrus Savings Bank. CROWDS WATCHED HOTEL. ) EXCAVATION MONDAY " Shady Side of Lot Filled With People Who Watched Steam Shovel Sling -Dirt. Work which was begun on the excava tion for the new hotel Monday drew large < crowds during the entire day to watch the steam shovel as it dug itself into a hole on the Northeast corner of the lot. Only the shady side of the property, however, was occupied by the onlookers because of the excessive heat in the sum shine. Os particular interest to the spectators was the mannir in which the shovel dug up a large tree near the Ueed property. ■ If was felled by constant digging under it until the roots were severed sufficient- ] jly for it:'to fje pulled dow r n by workmen i I who attached ropes to it. ' Considerable interest was also taken in j the manner in which the engineer on the steam shovel manipulated the tayriad j levers and foot pedals. It was a con- ! stant source of wonderment that he didn’t hit the wrong one, One negrot put it neatly when lie remarked : “That lnistali sho’ do sling a mean steam shovel." , Paris was the first city to adept a system of street lighting.
