(G FRUIT JUICE NEED NOT MEAN HALF OF ONE PER CENT—A NEW NTERPRETATION Prohibition enforcement officers hiety ‘et up a little on home-made drinks. They have virtually lifted the ban on cider and other ‘‘non-in- toxicating beverages” by declaring, in effect, that the definition of one- half of 1 per cent may be disregarded if the stuff manufactured is used at home. A decision of the Bureau of Inter- nal Revenue interprets the law relat- ing to “cider and fruit juices” as fol- lows: “Any person, may without permit, and without giving bond, manufac- ture non-intoxicating cider and fruit juices, and in so doing he may take his apples or fruits to a custom mill and have them made into cider and fruit juices. “After such mon-intoxicating ci- der and fruit juices are made, they must be used exclusively in the home, and when so used, the phrase ‘“non- intoxicating” means non-intoxicating in fact and not necessarily less than one-half of 1 per cent of alcohol, as provided in section 1 of the said act.” | The Kick Is There In other words it is held that one may buy fruit, have it made into ciders and fruit juices, which he may consume at home until they make him “feel good.” A real kick is per- mitted. This relaxation on the part of the enforcement officers is said to have been inspired by Congressmen in fear of the wrath of country people who have been accustomed to going as far as they liked in making beverages from anything they pro- duced on the farm. Up to the time of National prohi- bition these home drinks included apple brandy, cider, blackberry and grape wines and other softer things. at Wren CIVIL WAR VET PITCHES SEVEN LOADS OF WHEAT of Elizabethtown, a veteran of the Civil War, and who is in his 79th year, pitched 7 loads of wheat from the wagon to Thomas Gise, who did the stacking, in five hours. The wheat is a good crop as they examined a number of heads and found they contained 60 full- grown grains that were taken from the J. A. Hipple farms of about 55 acres. rr YQ LANDISVILLE AND SALUNGA UNION S. S.

Hoffman, at Locust Grove, entailing a damage of approximately $10,000. The blaze is believed to have started from spontaneous combustion in the engine of one of two automo- biles parked in the wagon shed. Both these machines valued at $1,700 were destroyed by the flames which consumed thousands of dollars’ worth of farm implements, corn, wagons, and other valuable contents. Firemen from Elizabethtown, Co- lumbia and Marietta succeeded in saving live stock and a few buggies. A hastily formed bucket brigade protected the old stone residence, which was scored by the heat. The blaze was discovered by mem- bers of the Hoffman family, in the Maytown, and George Longenecker Pottstown, guests of the family, had parked their cars. The blaze quickly consumed the shed, garage and barn age and barn which stood close to- gether. The garage and barn were equipped with modern improvements.

ROY HEISEY AND HER BOARDER ARE GONE Mrs. Roy Heisey, who with her husband and two small children re- sided several miles east of Elizabeth- town, is missing. It is said that a boarder, Frank Cruizian, a Mexican, has also disappeared. Mrs. Heisey is only eighteen years old. The deserted husband is working on the theory that if they went away together they went no further than Lancaster, because Cruizian, after a visit to the county seat several days ago, told friends that he had rented several nice rooms in that city and would shortly move there. Cruizian is employed by the P. R. R. as a track hand. He was board- ing at the camp at Landisville and was working on the section between Elizabethtown and Rheems and only a week ago went to board with the Heisey family in order to be closer to his work. The Heiseys have been married several years. Mrs. Heisey is eigh- teen years old, of medium height and of slender build. a blond and pretty. She is a daughter of H. H. Good, of Elizabethtown.
