Special Dispatch to The dtar. HARRISBURG, Pa., April 2 state police is questioned. No trail has been too long or winding. The fight of time in strange lands did not make fugitives safe. The force “gets its men.” From states half acrosa the country it has picked ap- parently harmless farm hands and brought them back to die for mur- ders. A handful of its members hold at bay striking mobs of a hundred. Sight of & “Black Cossack,” as they once wers hatefully called in alien district, made anarchists forget their bombs and blackhanders their knives. Yet, after eighteen years of this, the honor of the force and whether it amounts to much is questioned. “Enforce Dry Law.” “Enforce the prohibition lawfi” is | the order of the new governor. Less than 400 men must clean up one of the wettest states In the Union or lose their place beside the Canadian Mounted. They used to say Pennsyl- vanle would never “go dry,” but it has—by law—and the state police say it will—by enforcement. “Clean out the commercial stills. Close the breweries that have turned the calendar back to days when Vol- stead was even as you and L Get the rum-running trucks off the high- ways and keep them off. There are the orders. Pennsylvania did not abolish sa- loons when the Volstead era dawned. It licensed them at $500 to $600 a year to sell near beer. The old swinging doors, the frosted glass, the long mirrors, the mahogany and brass rails remained. The brewers brewed. Now and then the beer was poor. Word was passed around occasionally that & prohibition agent was near. New Measure Adopted. With three votes to spare, the house adopted a new enforcement measure this week.

By the Associated Press. ATLANTA, Ga., April 2—The Stone Stone Mountain memorial is soon to be a reality. The colossal fig- ures of Lee, Jackson, Gordon and other heroes of the Confederacy will within a short time begin to emerge rom the stone face of the mountain under the chise] of Gutzon Borglum and march their deathless way along the mountain- side into the myriad years of the future This much has now been prac- tically assured with the announce- ment today of the formation of the Stone Mountain Memorial As- sociation, whose primary purpose 15 to be the raising of the funda necessary to complete the gigantic undertaking. A campalgn will begin at once to raise 3$250,000 in Georgia As 5000 as Georgla has responded the campaign will be carried to the rest of the nation. Governors of thirteen southern 8tates, senantors and representa- tives from these states, the presi- dents of all universities and patriotic socleties in the south have been invited to be present at the launching of the campalgn on April 15 President Harding and former Presidents Wilson and Taft have been extended special invitatior revenues are taken away. The €x- pense of local government may in- crease, because every drug stors, ice- cream’ parlor and soft-drink stand must be watched from now on. But, while politiclans quibble and lawyers argue, the honor of the force is at stake, The “Cossacks” are under orders to drop everything elss except bank robberles and murders. Rum run- [ners, bootieggers, moonshiners—not the little fellows, but 800 of the big ones already have discovered that something has happened. Brewers have begun facing the unpleasant truth. Owners of more than 100 trucks have lost both conveyance and cargo. High powered beer, whisky from the fleets of smuggler moonshine from great copper stills— 80 much of it has been seized that it is dificult to get a good drink in Pennsylvania. Beset by keen-witted detectives in employ of the rum ring, who try to trail them, opposed at trials by high- priced lawyers and expensive chem- ists of national reputation, the force nevertheless is “getting its men"” and sending them to jail. Wet towns have gone dry and more are on the way. Scranton is drier than in years. So too is McKeesport, Dugquesne. Chester, Sharpsburg and many others. “The 'honor of the force will be vindicated,” declares Maj. Lynn G. Adams, superintendent. “The boot- legger is yellow. Unllke a bunk rob- ber, he isn't a good sport. We Know how to make beer and all illegal liquor so expensive that there will be financial loss as well as the cer- tainty of a jail sentence for those who try to sell it.” (Copyright, 1923.)

As you read it, you will note three things of interest: _ Desr Sirs: June 13, 1922 T wish to thank you for the grest help ‘you have been to me in making my house a home. 1 had no idea linoleum could be %0 attractive. + T wish your book on Home Decoration oould be read by every housewife in the United States.

Also, she is enlisting the service of our Depart- ment of Interior Decoration for suggestions as to oolor harmony and the securing of a certain effect. This letter is typical of many we receive. More and more women are turning to linoleum for floors. Some houses are being built in which floors of Armstrong’s Linoleum are specified for every room. And again and again letters come from women, saying they “had no idea” linoleum would look so well and be so easy to take care of. There is every reason why a floor of linoleum should be satisfactory. The wealth of colors and patterns in which Armstrong’s Linoleum is made full opportunity for beautiful effects either fi:ht and colorful, or quiet and subdued. Brookland Branch 12th and Newton Sts.

TODAY isour first anniversary and we deem this occasion a most fitting time for expressing our deep appreciation for the steadfast patronage accorded us by our friends and the general public —a patronage which we hope to merit in the future by unfailing courtesy and service at all times. MERCHANTS BANK & TRUST CO. Qualities peculiar to linoleum From a practical point of view, linoleum makes a splendid floor. Linoleum is water-praof, dust- proof, grease-proof. It is the easiest of all floors to clean, and it is quiet. When carefally laid, linoleum makes a permanent floor and requires little attention beyond an occasional waxing and lishing. Floors of linoleum can be lzid in new omes, in remodeled homes or in old homes where floors need refinishing. The 1923 patterns of Armstrong’s Linoleum fnclude beautiful Jaspé (two-tone) effects, par- uetry inlaids, tile inlaids, and carpet, inlaids. henthere are a number of plain colors and attractive printed designs. , Write for free sample’ and booklet Let us send you a sample of Armstrong’s Linoleum and our 24-page booklet, “New Floors for Old.” The booklet contains a score of colorplates of dis- tinctivedesignsin Armstrong’s Linoleum that you can'see at stores; Jaspés, carpet in- ids, tile inlaids, marble tiles and printed patterns; also, in- formation on laying linoleum and how to care for your lino- leum floors.
