maun Farewell Party
i
You can just bet your last dollar that Sidney Hoffman will al-
ways remember the last meeting he attended as a mem ber of the
Albany Lit is Club. The boys decided that such a renowned person-
age as Sid should not leave without some sort of social glamour,
so a committee was appointed to see to it that Sidney was given
a rousing sendoff to the Land of the Lubbockians. I he Club went
light to work at twelve o'clock, and dressed Sidney in a flowing
baby dress, baby cap, socks, and bottle, and thus attired he was
led into the room of his brother Lions. A special table was laid for
Sidney, a red table cloth, red chair cover, and red background with
numerous quarantine signs told other members to stay away, that
little Baby Sid had the measles.
Each member of the Lions Club had to eat the entire meal with
his knife as there were no spoons, forks, or other table hardware
permitted on the table. No mouths were lacerated and according
to the official meal timer the meal was eaten in the best time re-
corded this year, and also with more apparent satisfaction.
Following the meal each member was called on, and he responded
by making Sidney a farewell speech and presenting him with a part-
ing present. These gifts were useful and appropriate, and much
taste was exercised in their purchase.
The membership of the Club regrets to see Lion Hoffman leave,
but he carries with him tie entire felicitation- and good will of the
Club He ha.- an e xcellent member, having served on the first
!oard nf hirector . a charter member, and has acted as purchasing
agent for the Club since last year.
MEN . TMf SOW AND THE COW
In a recent address, United States Attorney Tuttle pointed to "the
terrific crime bills" of th< nation and the "obvious tendencies" in
he country to disregard laws.
"The problems of the present," he said, "are in finding adequate
means of checking crime, the application of Jaw to modern life„ and
in preserving respect for law. With 350,000 criminals, whose destruc-
tion since the war exceeds that during the war, there is more crime
an dfraud in this country than in any other."
This statement by a man like United States Attorney Tuttle is
a challenge to the law-abiding and law-respecting citizenry of Our
Country who, despite newspaper accounts of murders, robberies and
crime in general, are still in the majority.
Our people must become more thoroughly awake to the menace
of crime and realize that the remedy is not in the passage of theo-
retical and freak legislation, but in enforcing present laws and in
correcting archaic methods of court procedure, and in stopping up
loopholes which have made chances for the murderer paying the
penalty for his crime only one in ten.—Notwithstanding we have
prohibition and woman suffrage—"A noble experiment."

In tin last 10 years, according to the American Automobile Asso-
ciation, the Federal government has sp"'it Iff! 1 1,000,000 for roads.
This averages slightly less than S3 each per year for the motor
vehicles now in operation.
I'here is no mon profiUibb way of spending public funds than
in i ientific highway building and it is to be hoped that, in the fu-
ll re, the government will continue expenditures for roads propor
tionati to tin- national inrome and the need for such improvements.

way- to waterproof them and eliminate mud and list, at a figure
within the reach of most of such districts. Proper improvement of
,-uch "feeder" roads is essential to the territory contiguous to main
highways.
