J>. <3. Yellowley, federal district ad- j ministrator, said the proceeding opened a new avenue of attack for prohibition enforcers and were based on a 67-year-old statute directed at operation of illegal distilleries. Twenty acres of Joseph Knglehaupt's 620-acre farm in Putnam county and 1.87 acres of Elmer F. Flaherty's 208rftcre farm in Bureau county will be sold J>y the government. Rights of persons holding mortgages will be respected. Neither of the two farmers was convicted of the liquor law violation. Yellowley said the statute was invoked against them because the stills on their properties were" of such size that they must have known of their existence. Officers investigating recent fires in Tallapoosa county, Alabama, are of opinion that the blazes are due to the activities of' communists.

Met With Mr. ?nd Mrs. Bower* The Providence Home Demonstration Club entertained at a community party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Luther Powers on last Monday night. The rooms were artistically decorated with fall flowers and autumn leaves while the big open fires cast a mellow glow over the party. Kvery one entered whole-heartedly and enthunjasJti.cally into the Hallowe'en games which were led by Misses Christie Hey, Clara Hough and Caroline ilouSer. One enjoyable feature was the appearance of a very realistic ghost which created quite a bit of excitement among the girls. Af? ter much guessing and questlbajng the mask was removed and it was found thut the ghost was none other than ltacene West. 'Hie young .people enjoyed doing a cake walk and the older ones enjoyed looking on. Tlvo cake was won by Ralph Willis and Attrice Crow. Late in the evening refreshments consisting of gingerbread, cake and punch were served by the hostess assisted by Miss Craig, the home agent, and other members of the club. Seventy-five men, women, young people and children of the community enjoyed this party at the hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. Low-: ers.v Tliis club is one of the newer clubs I and is filling the vital need in the; community life.

Legion's Island Is Great Rallying Point Twenty miles from Toledo, Ohio, i in the scenic Maumee river, lies a beautiful ten-acre island with clubhouse and recreational* facilities entirely owned and operated by Toledo Post .'{.'55 of the American Legion. This is probably one of the greatest enterprises of its kind on the part of a Legion post, representing as it does, with mainland right-of-way, a total investment of about $45,000. It is an ideal spot for the members of the post and their families to find recreation .11 the spring, summer and autumn. Toledo Post acquired the island in 1022, naming it Gailhrath Island in honor of Frederick W. Galbraith, of Cincinnati, a national commander of the Legion who died in office as the result of injuries sustained in a tragic automobile accident. At the time of the purchase there were no buildings on the island. An architect member drew plans for the clubhouse, one wintf "i which wai- built in 5W2d.. Other improvement- followed from year to year as they could be financed. Mo-' of the actual i (instruction work ?n the island has been dpne by the { ? -t members themselves. In building the clubhouse it wa< nccessai\ to tra: -port all of the building in itio ;al b\ boat. which wa< done by member- .n then* spare t.iv.e Tons <>:' ifnunt, i i u-hed rock a".d other material wee carried on the hacks < !' ! .i-ir: nnain- down to ' river t - : .( h.-at ar.il then up the . ping ; i the -land to the Id'.ng S 11*. One of the alt-a* ti\ e fiat..c- of the i labitou.-e i> a huge slum fireplace ar.d chimney tn the ma n room. The stones for the fireplace were obtained from the bottom of the river, members of the .post diving for them and bringing them out one at a time. The dining room of the clubhouse will sent about forty persons and dormitory facilities are available for about twenty persons. There are about 100 lockers for the use of members and thp usual equipment of boats and canoes for such a resort. The problem of finance, always i troublesome in such a project, has been handled without difficulty by i Toledo Post, according to Glen H. c I i Campbell, a past post commander | and one of the most active members.^ Funds for the purchase.and operation of the island have -come from the dues of members and from various' j money-raising activities. An initia-i tion fee of $25 is charged new mem- I bers and the dues are only $15 a year, I i including Legion membership. The post membership, Campbell said, has run from 200 to dot) each year. Many j [donations have been received from! friends ar.d individual members of the post. '"The island is officially opened in the spring, usually about the first of ' May or the latter part of April,"! Campbell said. "A chef and his wife i begin operations at that time and. meals are available at all times up until the closing of the island in Oc- < tober. Members pay for meals and other services just as they would at j any other club. An outside care- I taker spends all his time in main- | taining the premises in proper order. 1 Extra help for handling big parties, j | Sunday meals and the like is ob I I tained from a nearby village. "The effect of the ownership of the island has been to make it a rallying center for Legionnaire - of northwestern Ohio. Baseball games j and other athletic events are se'ned' uled for the island and the post | meets tw co a month during the >um1 mer for dinner meetings, in the 'ubhouse. The facilities of the , .and are used freely by the members. ir . families and friends, both for k' ends and. f ir part ies and picnic- . ir' ing th( week. Like all pr\i< this character, the island hi- . v?n . a continual, load, but the p. always managed to wiggle t' .it ] and pa;. :!-> bills. The .sland was practically i from debt a year and a ha .g . ! Campbell said, with less than. -:. i 'to be paid on the clubhouse an. cal estate, when the mainland r.g:'- f way was purchased at an a,id.:, 1 cost of $10,000 to provide an entrance from the highway to the river, j A right-of-way previously had been leased.. Recent improvements, he said, have included two concrete r> tennis* court*, a wading pool for! youngsters, a concrete shufflebonrd court, concrete and stone grills for outdoor Cooking and a pistol and rifle range. Outdoor lighting has been provided for several of the amusement devices.

H. Umiiwn, county farm agent, pnd it was very evident that they were better blocked and better fitted than ever before. Twenty-seven of these sheep were afterwards shown at the State Fair and took, ^/editable winnings. Matthew Patrick, a.4-H sheep club member, purchased a fine Southdown ram that was on exhibition at the State Fair; and Howard Snelling jmrchased the grand chumpjon Southdown ram shown at the Fiar. These will help to improve still further the blood of Fairfield sheep. In "addition to sheep at the Fairfield sheep show. thei;e, were 22 four11 Gr.ernse^ calves and 12 four-H fHMfcebud pig-<.
