A bill recently introduced in Con- | gress by Senator King, Democrat, of Utah, which would restrict the unau- thorized practice of law in the District, Easter Eggs Pack Enough Liquor to Tame Any Bunny By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, March 17.—Pro- hibition Agent John Huntley said he was surprised at the amount of kick to be found in some Easter eggs. His sweet tooth having got the better of him, he entered Otto Fiebing's delicatessen store, priced the candy eggs and found they were three for a quarter. He took a dozen “Those eggs,” he said later to a United States commissioner, “were candy on the outside, but ther¢’s enough liquor on the in- side of a half a dozen of them to IFREE FLOUR TO G0 THE EVENING 10150000 HOMES, Needy Families Will Share Soon From Big Wheat Stores.

The discovery of America by Colum- bus was the most momentous event in the Christian era, Dr. Paul Bartsch of the Smithsonian Institution contended Tuesday night at the meeting of the Business Women's Council of the Church of the Covenant.

Parasites, including certain types of the hook- | worm, which are found on_ peoples of Central and South America, he said, are the same as those found among Asiatic peoples.
