Smith, Berlin, recently visited Somer- set Lodge No. 438, Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the following of- ficers were installed: Noble Grand, R. A. Frease; Vice Noble Grand, H. G. Sellers; Secretary, D. W. Seibert; Treasurer, C. W. Weimer; Warden, H. D. Heiple; Conductor, S. M. Ken- nell; Chaplain, C. G. Barnhart; Inside Guardian, James J. Friedline; Outside Guardian, Fred Eicher; Supporters of the Noble and Vice Grand, Charles Harrison, A. W. Knepper, Sheldon Barkman, Irvin Frease, Earl Schrock and J. C. Schrock. Representatives from Kingwood, Berlin, Moxham, Addison and Port Matilda Lodges were present; Mr. Shank, newly installed Noble Grand of the Kingwood Lodge; all spoke for the good of the order. Plans have been formulated for the 110th Anni- versary of the Odd Fellowship, which will be celebrated in the Somerset lodge on Monday night, April 29th. Winnodansis Lodge, No. 217, of the Rebekah Assembly of Pennsylvania, will hold its semi-annual installation of officers in the Odd Fellows hall in Somerset, Tuesday night, April 16th. The newly elected Noble Grand, Gail Kennell, is one of the youngest Noble Grands ever installed in Winnodansis Lodge. Preparations have been made to at- tend a special initiation of candidates in the Moxham lodge, at Johnstown on Friday, 19th. One bus has been chartered and if there are additional members who wish to attend, should get in touch with the committee, Fred Eicher and R. A. Frease. Refinishing Old Floors “Look up, not il may be sound philosophy, but it cannot be followed too literally by the home maker. The lowly floor must be rejuvenated oc- casionally. There is no floor tha looks so bad that it cannot be chang- ed from an eyesore into a decorative asset by a few coats of paint. Along with warbling spring robins there has appeared bulletins from official and industrial sources telling how to fix up the floors. It seems to be agreed among the best authorities that a new finish should never be applied over a surface that is not immaculately clean. Refinishing with varnish or stain requires considerable prelimin- ary work and if the floor is badly marred and discolored it should be bleached with a solution of oxalic acid crystals dissolved in hot water, using as large a quantity of the erystals as the water will dissolve. Apply the bleach with a scrubbing brush and al- low it to remain on the floor twenty- four hours before it is washed off with clear, hot water. As oxalic acid is poisonous a pair of rubber gloves should always be worn during the bleaching process. Then again where new floors of the open-grain type are being finished a paste-wood filler should be used to make the surface even, which can be wiped clean within a half hour with excelsior, after which the surface could be allowed to dry for at least eight hours. Old floors usually con- tain breaks and nail holes, and the old-time plan of filling them with putty and rubbing down the rough spots with sand paper is as good a plan as it was half a hundred years ago. A newly painted floor requires three coats and a top coat of varnish will finish the job off nicely and in- crease the resistance. The best au- | thorities caution against applying a coat of paint until the previous coat has had time to thoroughly dry. LOG CHAPEL TO BE BUILT THIS SUMMER NEAR JENNERSTOWN At the meeting of the Blairsville Presbytery at Parnassus the Rev. Dr. Calvin C. Hays reported for the Pres- byterial Committee that has charge of the erection of a log church on the for- mer W. A. Coffin farm near Jenners- town, Somerset County. He said a modest little chapel will be built this summer at a cost of about $5,000. This will be the first formative move to car- ry out the Presbytery’s proposal of long standing to convert the beautiful hillside into a summer campmeeting and chau- tauqua ground. Until such a costly plan nanced and started on its way, the me- morial chapel will be used for special meetings and summer conferences of young people. Tents probably will spring up here and there while the re- can be fi- uts, late cabbage, ligious gatherings are being held. THOMAS MOODY, SR., | COMMITS SUICIDE | Using a piece of electric light cord, Thomas Moody, Sr., aged 59 years, a well-known resident of Nant-y Glo, committed suicide at his home Friday. | His lifeless body was found dangling lin the attic stairway by his little granddaughter, Ethel Moody, aged eight years, when she returned home from school. The Moody child sum- |moned help and the body was cul down, but life was extinct. It is the supposition that Mr. Moody had become despondent be- |cause of not having steady employ- ment. Mr. Moody was born in Scotland and had lived at Nant-y Glo for the last 12 years. His wife preceded him 'to the grave about a year ago.

CONDITIONS IN RUSSIA We have had a great deal of propa- ganda from some of our own pinkeyed liberals during the past year or two concerning the beatific state of affairs now existent in the Soviet Republic of Russia. Certain of our uplifters with {radical tendencies have gone to Moscow the soviet government, (have been permitted to see scenes speci- fically staged for them and have re- turned with glowing descriptions of what the reds have done for the “com- mon people” in Russia. But it is now no longer possible to {conceal the real situation in Russia. | Reports continually seep out showing [the desperate condition of affairs. In [writing recently from Geneva, Albin E. | Johnson, said in the New York World: | “The Bolshevist Government of Rus- Isia is figuratively ‘sitting on the bay- las guests of |onets of its army.’ This army is fac- |ing two fronts—the mass of a hundred [ million peasants, which constitute Rus- {sia, and the spectre of Famine in the [rear and the politically hostile list countries of Europe before them. “With serious dissension in its own ranks, and the worst economic crisis in recent years on its doorstep, due to | famine conditions which are likely to | get worse before they get better, the | Communist Party is undergoing a bad | case of political shivers according to {reliable information reaching diplomatic [observers here.” | Now the peasants are dissatisfied, and ripe for anything. Only their age capital long obedience to autocratic authority has kept them quiet so Far. And as ninety percent of the population is peas- ant it is difficult to see in light of the facts, just how the “common people” of Russia have been uplifted. Of course the reverse is true, and since about three fourths of the red army is made up of peasants it is easy to see that there may be an explosion some of these days which will make the Trotzky up- heaval seem like a fizzling firecracker in comparison. When this explosion comes it is going to force done some of our own exponents of “liberal thought” to rebuild their thinking apparatus.

Fired Fort Wilkins, Mich.—The unprotect- ed borders of the United States and Canada, an oft-cited example that two peoples can live in peace, revives the story of Fort Wilkins, the lust army post on the northern boundary line. Not since its garrison marched away shortly after the Civil war have its confines echoed to martial tread. It now is a state park, and tourists camp beneath its trees, where sen- tries alert for the war cry of Indian braves once walked their posts. Just a cannon shot away, across the water of Lake Superior, is the imag- inary line separating Canada from the United States. Never once in the life of the old fort was a gun fired from its con- fines in hostility. Fort Wilkins was established in 1844, temporarily aban- doned in 1846, reoccupied in 1869 and finally deserted in 1870. The post was built at the end of Michigan's thumb, the Keweenaw peninsula, as a protection’ to early copper miners and settlers against In- dian aggression. There, too, lurked in the minds of officials that the United States some day might need to defend its northern frontier. The first garrisoned troops, who built the post, hewed the logs from virgin timber. ' Later the buildings were clapboarded and when the state took over the post the fort was well preserved. ; Protecting the inclosure on the north and east was a stockade of posts, fas- tened with hand-made wooden pegs. Lake Fanny Hooe provided protec- tion on the south’ side, and there was a rapidly flowing stream on the west. The post, although somewhat mod- ernized by the summer’s flow of mo- | torists, remains a page out of the past in the industrialized present of Michi- gan's copper country. Russia Draws Many Workers From U. S. Riga, Latvia.—Consular officials in Riga estimate that 30,000 former resi- dents of the United States are living in Soviet Russia. Every month more enter and others come out, while many of those who remain bombard the Ame~ican consu- ‘Jate, across the frontier in Riga, with letters pleading for papers that would permit them to return to America. Most of the thousands who have gone into Russia since the revolution, looking for a worker's earthly para- dise, are living in small towns, com- munes and villages. They are brought to Riga by steam- ship ‘companies in ikurge parties and sent into Russia from here. Each im- migrant is obliged on entering a red commune to have a minimum capital of $500 and to surrender his American passport before entering the new world that Lenin created. Chew of Tobacco Solves Mystery of Burglaries York, Neb.—A chew from a plug of tobacco was the undoing here of Leon Hudson and led officers to the discov- ery of the perpetrator of more than forty burglaries in and near York county during January and February. Hudson had been arrested as a sus- pect. The burglar apparently had worked with gloves, as no finger prints were found, and the only clews left were footprints and a plug of tobacco from which a bite had been taken, leaving a perfect imprint of teeth. The sheriff at Aurora played cards with a number of prisoners and in- vited all to “have a chew.” Hudson was the only one to accept and his teeth prints were found to be like those in the state's exhibit. He later made a confession to all burglaries of which he had been suspected. Some Are That Dumb Bordeaux, France.—A man hailed Jules Durand, taxi driver, and en- gaged him to go to Bergerac, 50 miles distant. Thinking _the “fare” was aboard, Durand drove to Bergerac, where he found that the man had never got into his cab. He's trying to collect, but it's difficult. 3,000-Horse Power Engine Built Vienna.—A 3,000 horse-power rail- way locomotive, said to be the largest and most powerful in Europe, has been built here for use on steep Alpine grades.

This is the query being passed along in gasoline alley. Who might drive Frank Cramer’s Chromilite spe- cial, last year piloted by Earl 2—Who lis the best prospect ?— Will he be an- other “dark horse” just as Lou Mey- er, Frank Lockhart and George Sou- ders proved to be ?—are some of the questions being hurled right and left. But Frank Cramer, of Altoona, Pa., owner of the machine and Earl’s boss, turns a deaf ear to all inquiries, He “hasn’t anything to say right now.” And Cramer's statement brings more to the front the question—will the new pilot be another “dark horse?” And, too, if he is a “dark horse” will he replace Lou Meyer as champion ?—Will he top the great- ness of Lockhart ?—Will he rival the overnight popularity gained by George Souders? Lou Meyer, last year’s leading driv- er, was a “hark horse.” Meyer went into the 500-mile international race at Indianapolis last May as “just an- other one of those dirt track drivers from California with big hopes.” But Meyer's hopes were founded on more than just visions—he came through with first place and $28,000 in prizes. eorge Souders, a student at Pur- due University, went into the Indian- apolis grind in May 1927 an unknown and came out a winner. He crashed the front page on most every paper in America overnight. . And the year before that—May 1926—Frank Lockhart, deemed by many experts as the greatest driver to ever sit in the seat of a “gas buggy,” jumped into prominence when he rode into first place. He, like Meyer, was a product of the Califor- nia dirt tracks. But Lockhart’s ea- reer was not long. = With only two years of spectacular performances to his credit he lost his life during the speed trials at Daytona Beach just before the opening of the regular board season last year. With the last three years finding a “dark horse” coming out on top at the opening of the regular season, there is little wonder that many are watch- ing with anxious eyes the announce- ment of the man to fill DeVore’s seat. It may be at Indianapolis May 30 or it may not be until the Altoona classic June 15. But until the new man takes the wheel of the Chromilite special, gas- oline alley will hold true to the repu- tation established by DeVore, the man who lost his life when the Vestris sank while he was enroute to South America to arrange an event forihis brothers in the game of speed. Who ever the new pilot will be he will have a tough job ahead of him. Perhaps he can fill the seat, who knows, and yet— Sentenced In Court , for Violations of Law Pleading guilty to a charge of driving an automobile while intoxicated, Char- les Fleegle, of Somerset, was sentenced by Judge John A.

LITSCHERT Students of political affairs in Washington are beginning to specu- late as to whether the country is to be treated to another League of Na- tions and World Court fight, and just what effects such a contest, if it takes place, will have on pending legislation in the United States Senate. The United States has had twd or three spectacular legislative combats of the kind. The first of these, and of course the most spectacular, was when the Senate refused membership in the League of Nations for the Uni- ted States. This was back in the ad- ministration of President Wilson, and it brought out some of the greatest debate which had been heard in the ‘upper legislative body since the days of Webster, Clay and Calhoun. The most recent of these interna- tional political struggles was the one which occurrec in the administration of President Coolidge when. the Sen- ate, by an overwa2ming vote, agreed to place the United States in the World Court, with certain reserva- tions. In the League of Nations fight the Senate in rejecting membership in the league, undoubtedly took the pop- ular side, as was evidencs in the elec- tion of 1920 when the league was prominent issue. The action of the Senate in adhering to the World Court with reservations was not pass- ed on by the voters in the clection of 1928 for the reason that, when the European nations refused to agree to some of the Senate reservations, it was generally presumed that the World Court issue was dead so far as the United States was concerned, and international affairs aroused little or no interest in the campaign, the plat- forms of both the Republican and De- mocratic parties declared against en- tangling foreign committments. International issues have come to the forefront again, however, due to the trip of Elihu Root, former Secre- tary of State to Europe in an effort to bring about an understanding with Europe regarding the entrance of Un- cle Sam into the World Court. Just how this understanding will appeal to the United States Senate and the administration at Washington re- mains to be seen. It is generally claimed by those who oppose going into the court with reservations less drastic than those previously propos- ed by the Senate, that the Root for- mula weakens the famous Reserva- tion No. 5 of our World Court res- olution. This reservation attempted to prevent the court from giving ad- visory opinion on any subject in which” the United States claimed an interest, without the consent of the United States government. Under the Root formula, according to those opposed to this document, “By the terms of that formula the United States as a member of the court would have to accept an advisory opinion or get out of the court, with all the hard feeling which such a The words quoted are from the New York Sun, which does not favor the adherence of the United States to to the court under the Root formula. That there will be a real fight over the question is evidenced by the fact that some of the outstanding senator- ial leaders in the anti-league fight are showing evidences of their desire to take a stand against the Root formu- la. On the other hand those states- men who formerly favored our jcin- ing the League of Nations without re- servations, or with mild reservations, are generally lining up for the Root formula. Tt is not regarded as likely that the question will get before the Senate until the winter session, and by that time both sides will have time to marshall their forces, and it is likely then that other legislation will have to stand aside while the World Court and League of Nations occupy the center of the stage. Those who oppose the Root formula will aszert that it weakens the Senate reserva- tion, and that it will put the United States in the league through the back door. We shall doubtless hear a great deal also about Great Britain's six votes in the World Court to our one. Those favoring the Root for- mula will declare of course that it does not entangle us and that st any rate we can withdraw if it doesn’t suit us. To this last argument the antis will reply that if we once get in it will be difficult to get out and that any tendency on our part to withdraw will be hailed by Europe and our pro-Europeans as poor sportsmanship and failure to “do our part toward saving the world.” Tak- en all in all it promises to be a pretty busy winter in Washington.

District Attorney ASKS COURT To Close “Duke’s Place” ONE YEAR District Attorney James B. Landis Monday afternoon presented a bill in equity to the Court asking that “Duke’s Place,” a restaurant in the basement of the Hotel Vannear building on the Pub- lic Square, Somerset, be padlocked for a period of one year for alleged viola- tion of the liquor laws and also alleg- ing that the place is a nuisance. James Turnbull, proprietor of the restaurant, and Achilles Alexas, of Johnstown, owner of the hotel build- ing, are named as defendants in the District Attorney’s bill of complaint. Turnbull is under bail for his appear- ance at the next term of Criminal Court to answer the liquor charge. Judge John A. Berkey has fixed the hearing for next Saturday morning at 9:30 o’clock. The_action of District Attorney: Lan- dis followed the raid made at “Duke’s Place” on March 30 at the direction of Judge Berkey following receipt of com- plaints. The Court issued an injunction restraining the defendants from manu- facturing or selling intoxicating liquor as defined in the Act of March 27, 1923, and from removing or in any way inter- fering with intoxicating liquor or other things upon said premises used in con- nection with the violation of said act constituting nuisance until further order of the Court. Affidavits in support of the District Attorney’s bill of complaint include those of Frank Maser, a Johnstown de- tective; Russell Mobley, a former mem- ber of the Johnstown Police Depart- ment; Austin D.
